Surprisingly decent, except for some overrated stuff like Braid, Bioshock and Mass Effect 3. And they should just choose between Guitar Hero & Rock Band, naming the two is a waste.
Maybe he meant an earphone but didn't know how to write it?
Surprisingly decent, except for the listo_O? And sh 2 is overrated, sh1 and 3 are the best...
Yeah, I get what you mean, I just feel kind of compelled to defend AC; it took everything bad about AA and improved on it, and in that sense, it's exactly what a sequel should be. Nothing was nerfed or dumbed down... much as it was a pretty simple game to begin with, that still feels worth mentioning in a day and age where developers seem willing to scrape the bottom of every barrel for the sake of a bigger and bigger audience
. It's obviously dependent on how much you like AA's gameplay to begin with - I did like it - but everything I hated in AA was fixed in the sequel. Still not a great game, but a damn good one.
why should i care about the pretentious story? I play horror games to give me the creeps and not to feel
! As for atmosphere, its not really the best. SH3 shits all over any SH in terms of atmosphere, a true feat...
Yeah, story and atmosphere aren't related at all.why should i care about the pretentious story? I play horror games to give me the creeps and not to feel

Well ok then. I feel kind of complelled not to defend AC, because where exactly did it improve on the original? And that's with me agreeing that AA was a decent game, mainly because of its gameplay and atmosphere making it one of the better superhero games ever. But AA vs. AC - ignoring the free roam mode after game completion, although the free roam wasn't much to cheer at even before that. Story is involving at times but just unnecessarily twisty, and a number of twists just feel like they're there for the sake of gametime padding. Riddler filling an entire prison with objects? Yeah ok. Several city blocks? Um no, what is he, The Retarded? Fights are exactly the same, and they're repetitive though can be interesting with combos. Boss fights are the exact same boring shit as in the original. Gadgets got expanded but not necessarily for the better, as a lot of them are just there for padding and have no other use. Publisher pressure may have cut out tons of content, but the content that's there is in no way revolutionary or commendable.Yeah, I get what you mean, I just feel kind of compelled to defend AC; it took everything bad about AA and improved on it, and in that sense, it's exactly what a sequel should be.

It's kind of heresy around these part to hail PS:T as the best rpg because of the story. Why the same doesn't apply in a survival horror game? Don't get me wrong, i agree that SH2 has arguably the best storie in the series, but that doesn't make it automatically the best SH. Other features to make judgement and all that...Yeah, story and atmosphere aren't related at all.why should i care about the pretentious story?

Aren't you contradicting yourself? And i really coudn't care less if Heather is a stronger character than James. Im just in for the creeps...
Yeah, but that's because of cognitive dissonance. I don't see any clothes on the Emperor, to be honest; PS:T is a great story and nothing else. It's told with a great awareness and use of the medium - which, arguably, SH2 isn't - but beyond that... people like a good story that draws them in. I've rarely felt a story that does that more than SH2's, and to me, that was central to the story. You were drawn in along with James, you could imagine yourself as James while still seeing him as a distinct character. That's the key point. If you don't feel any connection to the protagonist, you're a spectator who doesn't give a fuck. There are games that manage to make the player the protagonist and be scary for it - Amnesia would be the token example - but if it's a developed character, then yes, the story is central to the player's engagement. Otherwise you're just watching stupid shit happen to some idiot you don't care about.It's kind of heresy around these part to hail PS:T as the best rpg because of the story.Yeah, story and atmosphere aren't related at all.why should i care about the pretentious story?
