In Response To: Re: Susan O'Connor - process of games writing OT (Captain Spark) : I don't want to give the impression that I'm ragging on Bungie, because I'm : not. Lately I've been wondering if the single player campaign for games ( : shooters ) is being sacrificed for the on line play of the game. I focus : more on campaign play rather the dipping myself into the on line cess pool : of X Box Live. After I finished GoW I was left with the feeling that the : campaign was pointless and it seemed like a 7 hour tutorial, training you : for the on line game. : Gears of War is a decent game but there's very little within the game that : explains just exactly who it is you are fighting and why you are fighting : them. You have to read the game manual to find out most of the story? : Gears of War is a beautiful game, graphically speaking. I played it on my : 58 inch HDTV at 1080i and it looks wonderful. The frag throwing physics is : awful and the players can't throw a frag grenade more the 25 to 30 feet : (estimated from my observation). : I do find it amusing that your squad mates have to jump over nearly every : obstacle grunting and groining as they muscle themselves over the : obstacles rather then just walking around the obstacles. In Gears of War : you can turn off all music and sound effects.....Bungie.....hint, hint. : please do this for Halo 3. Sorry Marty, no offense intended. The language : in the game is R rated and some of the banter between your player and your : team mates is rather comical. : Just some observations. Mmm... I havn't got live, and I was considering getting gears. Is it actually worth it? I think I'd play splitscreen with me mates, but that wouldn't be that often, does it justify getting the game?
