The Reviews/interviews Thread

[First Blood]

BioShock 2 is a 100% game code copy paste from BioShock 1, the only thing different is story.

Aren't most sequels? Stick with the same formula that works...Resident Evil 4 and 5 have the same mechanics, controls etc.

Except Bioshock 1 sucks = Bioshock 2 sucks.

[predalien27]

Haha.

That friend, is a matter of opinion .

lol my friends love the game but i don't like it all too much either, i think its kinda stupid. 

[afrocat]

I heard Bioshock 2's story actually manages to be equal/surpass it a bit on an intellectual level. Which is half the point of bioshock the other point being the gameplay which is also very much improved. Anyways I guessed AVP would get great reviews (but not perfect) so im glad people are taking the time to discover it's depth and not ragequit/suck like that douche from gameinformer. I will only ever steal gameinformers now for their exclusives then actually buy one haha. I think the sequel of AVP should greatly surpass this one to the point of 10 scores. (There I go thinkin of the sequel already)

Are there reviews released for any other platform than Xbox 360 yet?

As a PC player I would very much like to hear some opinions about the PC version of the game. Or is this yet again a classic modern gaming world case where Microsoft has made a several million dollar deal with some one, like SEGA for example, to ensure that all of the early reviews will exclusively be for Xbox 360?

PCZONE gave it 82% and were very positive about it.

That's true.

In my opinion, Adopting Half-Life 2's fixation with physics, or rather, failing to do it correctly, doesn't make for a good game when the regular guns all feel like peashooters, and there are a million enemies in the game that you need to kill.

Resident Evil 4 and 5 have the same mechanics, controls etc.

Which is not a bad thing since why fix something that is not broken since I like RE5 better then I did with RE4 in my opinon. Gamestop review should be up soon in a few days and I'm pretty sure they will like the game.

I think you mean Gamespot?

they might but there giving bad scores out now like halo wars, fear 2 and dantes inferno all kickass games and there in the 6.0 or 7.0 if anything wait for a game-trailers one they go in depth in there reviews,

[afrocat]

I disagree. Dantes inferno deserved that six. It takes ideas and inspiration from what I believe to be one of the most amazing epics of all time and then changes ridiculous amounts of content(I understand changing the direction so Dante fights but they couldve kept some of the circles of hell the way the were instead of putting in penis's and tits for "shock value". Oh and its a poor mans GOW3. At least some games that use other games mechanics(Like Darksiders taking GOW, Zelda, and Air..that airplane game)use it creatively and add something new. Gamespot is hard but usually...usually...honest with their reviews. Keep in mind they gave AVP an...8 I believe and AVP2 a 8.7. In fact Gamespot is the website with the least BS reviews but alas all websites have some. Gametrailers is good though most of the time, but your forgetting they said the AVP demo had brutal, sloppy, gameplay: http://www.gametrailers.com/game/aliens-vs-predator/10843?show=Gameplay#Content

[Space Sweeper]

Is that Game Informer score for real!?!? That's rediculous! (In a bad way)

I don't think Gametrailers were saying the gameplay was bad, its more likely the 'brutal and sloppy' refer to the gore rather than the quality of the gameplay.
