I can't see why people like that boring game. It's just like any other game but, OOOOHHHH! YOU GET TO CONTROL TIME! (sarcastic) Who cares!? Someone please tell me why you actully like this game. Or are there more people out there that actually think that this game suckes and is WAY, WAY OVERRATED?

i'll take it from you if you dont like it :P

Umm.... yea. Thats what my rant was about.... One question for you: What are you smoking? J/K

First of all, how far are you in the game? I hated the game at first too, but it just became awesome later.

Second, have you played the original PoP games at all?

are you on crack bro....this game is so freakin awesome.....

Well, in a matter of hours you have managed to piss me off twice. Again, you are a loser, no wonder you were banned from GameFAQs.

why do I like the game? It's damn sure not because I can control time, I barely even used that feature, I liked the game because the puzzles were fun to solve and the story was well done. I like puzzle/platform games and this is one of the best. It's not for everybody, there's no guns or stuff blowing up or hookers in it, and it doesn't start with Madden in the title, so I can see why the general public may not take to it.

I think the game is too close to "art" for most people to "get" it. Same thing with UBI's other failing holiday title, Beyond Good and Evil. They are just too intellegent, too well thought out with stories that are too deep for the 'average' gamer that wants to see boobs, gore or sporting events. You don't have to have played the original PoP's to *get* the new PoP at all I think. Its one of the best puzzle/platformers in years and its a shame the game is so short, then again it adds to the replay value. =)

kittycatgirl2k, I think you are onto something there.

POP reminds me a lot of another "art" title, ICO which is a good thing.

Yep, and you don't have to worry about dragging around Yorda by the hand so she doesn't absent-mindedly walk off a cliff or something.

I kid, I kid. I really liked Ico.

Man, peope are always complainting about what's popular no matter what it is, if Jesus himself came back and took away all the suffereing in the world there would still be a dude at the back of the crowd going "Pftt, I figured he'd be taller, I mean, he IS the Son of God and all"

From what I've played of it, I really liked PoP. I especially liked how the narration of the story continues as you play the game instead of being constantly interrupted with a ton of cinemas. The voice-acting was done very well too. The time control in the game also works, and isn't some glorified Matrix ripoff (Max Payne and bullet time).

I loathed the demo with a passion.

I sincerely believe that 10 years from now, this game will be remembered as the game that fooled everyone.

But to be fair, the last time I brought this up, I was reassured that the final version is very different from the Demo.

Right now, I've simply don't have time to waste on a game I already know I don't particularly enjoy to give it a second chance. I have a huge yet to be played backlog thanks to Kaybe/Circuit City/target.not to mention a huge backlog of games I know I definitely will enjoy and want desperately-- mostly older releases.

Maybe someday I might pick up the xbox version solely for the unlockable old school games,but it would have to be less than $10.

Don't trust Minx...
She's just like Yorda! Trying to make life difficult for all of us!

No! I'm kidding! Seriously!
Put down that hammer!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Muehahaha!

Doh!

Ummm too violent. Scared the shit out of me. Seeing that pic. lol. J/K

maybe this topic should have a ESRB rating edited into the title ;-)

i personally loved the game, all that wall hopping is really fun

I got it and Splinter Cell for $39.99 and I still almost feel ripped off. The game is so repeditive, you move to different rooms and then about every 3rd room has the same puzzles as the ones before. Right now I'm at about 93% and I'm totally bored.. this is one of those games you cant wait to beat just so you never have to play it again. It's a good concept but needs a lot more originality and level design.
