Dr. Apex Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 What a sweet game, been playing it for a day and it's amazing. The premise is humans are attempting to colonize this frozen planet and discovers a native life form that has a form of thermal energy that can be harnessed. I need to get into the game further to understand the rest of the plot. The graphics are unreal, the snow breaks away and crunches under your feet and the snow looks as real as any game I've ever seen. The fires and smoke from the explosions are very realistic and the structures crumble around you from large impacts like in real life. The way the character moves is excellent and looks very real and jumping into a VS is completely fluid and fast. The animation to the VS(mech) is smooth and again looks realistic as hell. The controls are easy to figure out. Being able to run in one direction and fire and look in any other is very nice and the aiming is easy and spot on. The VS are easy to operate as well. The only complaint so far is the game has been surprisingly easy, I have the difficulty set on the middle setting and I've only died once in the first 2 missions. I'll have to wait and see if the game gets harder. This is a must own for the 360 if you even remotely like shooters!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HotCarl Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 I saw the commercial for it and it does look badass. All i have to do is buy a 360 now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Apex Posted January 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 I'm moving further into the game now, it's gotten a lot harder. The graphics are badass, the character getting into a mech is buttery smooth and I've finally found some good weapons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black00ws6 Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Thought about trying it out.. is it better/same as GoW? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morabu Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 don't get me wrong it is a cool game, but it's nowhere on the same level as GEARS but then again few are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Apex Posted January 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 It's not the same as Gow, it's a different type of shooter. It's not as guided as gow, you can roam a lot more and it has boss type battles at the end of each level and the use of mechs also. If your not sure about it rent it first or play it at a friends. I had played the demo online before and knew I would like the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaSSon Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 I've played the demo and I loved it. I'm just waiting for the price to come down or to get one pre-played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
