What is it you like? I'm on the fence with this.

I like the narrative - the serious tone of the characters. Gameplay is good too - if you enjoyed the previous MoH, then you know what to expect. For multiplayer - I like the 'buddy-system' mechanic.

I found the reviews of Warfighter to be bizarre (almost insulting). Sure there is nothing groundbreaking in terms of gunplay. But there is a touching, real story here. I say the word 'bizarre' because these same reviewers are the ones that complain when military shooters have no story, just run & gun. Put it this way - if there were no characters in the game, no story - all reviews would have said "this game could have used some personality, its just some nameless dudes running around shooting stuff." So it's a lose-lose, never happy no matter what. I think it was October's 'cool to hate' game. Every month has one.

I don't get bothered by much - I'm too old and plus I am a firm believer in 'to each their own, play whatever you want - as long as your having fun.' But the reviews seemed just strange.

You forgot Resident Evil 6 . Most people jumped on the hate bandwagon, the moment the reviews started popping out. People bitched about the tank controls in previous games, yet still bitched that RE6 had horrible controls and felt like a GoW clone. You can never please everyone.

I absolutely loved the game and the storyline felt better than anything Resident Evil 5 tried to accomplish, again it's always opinion vs opinion in the end though. Which is why I've never cared what reviews say of a certain game, I'll still try it before bashing it.

Absolutely - me too. I'm loving RE6 thus far. People (for some reason) worry about what others think of them if they enjoy a 'hated' game.

I finally finished the fourth campaign a few days ago on Veteran after 29 hours ()...and frankly, I was stunned by how much fun I had and perplexed by the widespread hate. Sure, I first started playing the RE series with RE4, so my perspective of the series is less horror-focused, but still. I still have three other difficulties on which to earn completion medals, and then I have to do it all over again with the other character...

I mean, come on, how many games let you break crates by sliding into them?

Dark Souls lets you roll into crates. Dark Souls wins.

You could also do it in Zelda OoT

As long as a sequel "feels" characteristic within its franchise/series (and I'm a fan), I'll most-likely like it, regardless of the reviews. Based on what I've seen from Warfighter, it seems like it contains elements that I like and don't like in campaigns.

I like campaigns in the vein of Bad Company (or similarly, Rainbow Six, Modern Warfare 1 & 2), where at one moment, you could be walking through a village without an enemy in sight, but suddenly get ambushed by a barrage of soldiers with rocket launchers, who appear or disappear randomly; there's an interaction/dynamism in those games, where you always feel like you have decisions to make in how you position yourself and take out the enemy. I also like how stealth missions are integrated in those games; if you screw up, you just adapt and take out the enemies who are chasing you. For those games, you can play through a section more than once, and it won't play out exactly the same way.

I don't like shooters that are heavily scripted or cinematic in the vein of the more recent Call of Duty games, where you're constantly in intense and elaborate, pre-staged firefights. It's like, "Take him out, Mason! (shoot) Run, Mason!"

Anyway, thanks for your input. I'll check it out.

P.S. I like Resident Evil 6.

I am enjoying RE6 a lot myself.

I want to order Graphics Card from AWD, but need help in deciding.

What is the best description to get regarding a "very good"?

Some just have : "Item may come repackaged"

Others have: "Minor Cosmetic imperfection on top, side, of item".

Or the one that has no description at all.

I have a question. Does amazon warehouse deal always come with online pass for used games that are recently released ? Like FIFA, pes, AC 3

No guarantee you'll get one, personally out of all the used games I've bought from AWD, one has had a unused pass

I wouldnt bet on anything purchased after the first 3 weeks. I got a fifa for 27 during the gold box last week and the pass was redeemed.

I do too..was still begging my friends to get it when I picked it up launch day. Had to send them a 'ummm..nevermind' text a few hours later. Ive enjoyed every main RE release up until this one.

RE6 is an extremely entertaining third person coop shooter. It may have strayed from it's roots but it is not a bad game at all...
