FUEL in my eyes needs to go straight to the $9.95 bin and then die.
Are Infamous and Prototype really that similar? All I keep hearing is how they are basically the same game.
I know Dead Space was from 2008, but I just want to declare that I hate that game with a passion. I just bought it last week, and it has the nastiest control and combat system of any shooter I've seen in recent times. I could not play for more than a few minutes....character movement was like wading through molasses with fcking Hulk Hogan strapped to your back. I was told that I should play it with a X-box controller; well if I want to play with the controller, I'll buy a xbox, won't I? I play on the PC so that I can play with a keyboard and mouse!
Ok, I had to get that off my chest. Thank you for reading, Back to the regular thread now
Yeah I feel the same way. EA made a poor port by not putting much effort at all into the keyboard and mouse controls. But the game is great, you shouldn't avoid it just because it requires a controller to enjoy. It does feel like you cannot move around as smoothly and quickly as you would like to but that is the feeling that the game is trying to give you. The controls are supposed to feel clunky because you are in huge armor. I think you should give it another go.I know Dead Space was from 2008, but I just want to declare that I hate that game with a passion.

Well, Dead Space on PS3/360 is one of my favorite games of this "generation." Seriously, try it with the controller.
Interesting, for 2009 releases DoW2 is my choice for GOTY at the moment. We'll see if that holds with some big names coming up for the holidays.
OP definitely didn't give the game a fair shake. What RTS isn't, at it's very core, herding sheep? The single player added some cool RPG elements and focused play on positioning and proper use of abilities rather than an economy and unit spam.
The multiplayer took out all the standard (and imo unecessary) base-building in favor of out-of-the-gate action. I'd suggest giving online play and the campaign a real play-through to truely appreciate the experience. It was a breath of fresh air for the genre for me personally.
dow2 because the games just dumb.. it has nothing to do with DoW or any of the other expansions for that version.. no structure building = no RTS..
@ people who arent happy with DOW 2...
Try playing again after the next patch is released. I played the open beta for the next patch and it feels very similar to the old DOW game in terms of unit roles. I have to say its way more balanced and fun than it has ever been before.
Exactly. At first I was a little sad that I didn't get to build, but realized that one of my peeves was realized when I played Halo Wars. I don't like building just to beat a level. I'd rather be given certain units and strategically work with what I have. DoW2 gave that. Although more unit choices would have been nice the RPG element was very fun. I give DoW2 a 9/10. It's a very deep game in playstyle.
Terminator Salvation

I look at the controller now as a neccessary tool in the box. Just like a joystick or wheel and pedals. Some games are just better with the controller AND better on the PC at the same time.

I don't think that Superman 64 has any real competition, but I'd probably say that Terminator Salvation was the worst game I played this year.I heard about how terrible it was, would any of you consider it a Next-Gen Superman 64 or is it not THAT bad?
Is that an implication that it's a ~ clone of L4D1?Yeah you haven't?
Interesting.
NO.....it still sux with the 360 controller....so don't buy it for Deadshit.
360 controller works brilliantly on GTR2 evo and Volvo the Game though
^^somewhat true
This is pure gotdamned nonsense. There was no one on this planet more fucking giddy about DoW2 being released more than me. I was so happy about this game this game that I repainted my home office, steam cleaned the carpet, bought a new fucking office chair and mouse pad, took off 2 days from work, and basically rebuilt my pc ALL IN ANTICIPATION of installing the closed beta of DoW2. Needless to say I was very excited. I like Dawn of War and all its expansions just that much.
I was so disappointed I almost threw up. You see DoW2 is like a bastardized version of the original. Damn near all strategic and traditional elements from the original are missing from DoW2. i tried to like this game so badly, but couldn't stomach it. Most of the people who were true fans of the original hates DoW2. I dont have the sales numbers, but I dont think DoW2 was even close to the original releases in popularity.
RTS = base building and all the strategic and tactical elements therein. But the hate for DoW2 goes a hell of alot deeper than just the lack of base building. All DoW2 turned out to be was Company of Heroes with a made up Dawn of War skin. Pure heresy.
You know, if they had made it just like the original, there would have been people complaining that it was just more of the same old crap and why couldn't they come up with something new.
Forza3 is coming to PC or you are talking about 360?
Pretty sure this was last year, but I bought it this year, so it goes here anyway: GTA4.

Mag..
I know what you mean, "but" the XBOX 360 controller won't save you, it's still garbage with the 360 controller connected to my PC.
Deadspace is my worst game EVER.
