[quote name='seanr1221']You made the claim that most people think the only thing going for it is graphics. Back those claims up, son!
One podcast...that's it?[/QUOTE]
Only thing going for it is graphics is not what was said, it was that it's a good shooter that gets by on having uber-graphics, which seems to be in line with things Chac, Rei, and Ninja Dog say too. RebelFM had some of the same things to say. It's good, but not great.
One thing that always bothered me about the game, and they might just not have shown this, but just like Call of Duty, the enemies kinda lack variety. It seems like you're always just shooting these same dudes. Like Half Life has the headcrabs, the zombies, the combine, and the striders, etc. and they all have a different pace, different feel. Everything I see of KZ2 is shooting at a dude with glowing eyes in various uniforms. A lot like shooting at a german/japanese soldier in various uniforms. That didn't excite me either.
There's nothing insulting about comparing it with a Call of Duty game. Last I checked, people seem to enjoy those, and they sell pretty well. Everything that gets said about Sony exclusives that isn't "MAN IT'S THE BEST EVER" gets turned into "MAN, THIS IS SHIT, SO'S SONY!"
I'm more excited about FEAR2 just because I liked the original a lot and the setting and mood is more interesting to me.
