Saddens me whenever an innovation in gaming influences future games and simple fools jump up and blubber out "clone! clone!" yet if a post innovation game comes out and dares to exclude a key feature the very same ones are the first to call the game backwards and 'not next gen' because it doesn't have cover features or the main character isn't some gloomy emo anti-hero that hates everyone or swears constantly and blood comes out of even inanimate objects. Make your damn minds up what you like and stop raining on everyone else's quality games you bunch a whiny 'bored' gamers. Woe be to all the super mario bros. clone cause they have a JUMP buttom. And btw, God of War did not invent beat em-up action or chain weapons.
