I might get it, it looks like the unholy marriage between Oddworld: Stranger and Fallout 3.

Is right. ;)

Well i'll send you a friend request anyway, but the downside to playing with me is not only am I scouse, I also promised a very stupid scouse, loud & immature friend that id party up with him too. Oliver, you know who im talking about; Cona. Dear lord, it's Cona.

It's not a problem with you, but if I can't be dealing with him, I'll just solo. Oh and I don't mind scousers, my mum was born in Liverpool.

God dammit Cona!

Oliver, surely you're getting Borderlands? I like listening to you & Cona hate each other, it'll be fun...

I tried doing that same mission by myself earlier and it was near impossible, even though my level matched the suggested level for the mission. I could have only beaten it if I was leveled up a ton or if I had another person helping me. Also I doubt Skagzilla could be taken care of by one person at the suggested mission level.

Oh yeah that mission would've been damn hard by myself, probably wouldn't have enough ammo to kill both of them on my own.

Skagzilla also might be impossible on your own, it was good to have kraig there to let Skagzilla use as a punching bag while we gunned it down.

The only real drawback is this: No actual loot distributional system, so if your team is full of idiots, and a rare item that YOU need drops, good luck.

Life is like a cupcake. Your enjoying it until somebody bumps into you and you drop it.

Yes, simply drop them. I'm pretty sure you can do it online too.

Otherwise, very challenging, fun FPS with some incredibly addictive tried and true RPG elements that make you want to play for that next big kill, that next enemy camp, that next quest etc. It's an MMO you can totally solo, which is nice.

That's the pull they put in the game for sure...getting that next big crazy gun.

And yea the driving is crazy awkward.

It's like all the other overhyped games of recent releases. Modern Warfare 2 will only be the truly good buy this 2009.

So far, no one I know but me has ever heard of this game, I try to bring it into conversation but all I get is baffle "what the heck is he talking about?" sort of stares.

You might have noticed that when I was reviving you, I was also crouching behind you in the hopes that if Skagzilla was attacking you while you were down, I wouldn't take any damage so I could regain my shield while helping you get back on your feet. Thanks for being my periodic involuntary human shield.

It's not a bad game to tell you the truth.
I wasn't expecting much to begin with, and thought it would be total shit.
My brother bought it and told me to play it tonight, so I did, and it was actually pretty good. I played till I leveled up about 12 times then I decided I needed to shower... I'll be playing it again soon. It's good.

It is definitely not a ripoff of Fallout 3.
I just got it and it has been great so far!

I know that you have done something bad in your life that you don't regret. I hate you for it.

Saw friends play it last night and I was very underwhelmed by it. The graphics had a neat cell-shaded style which is refreshing compared to the generic GRITTY graphics we've seen in just about FPS for the last 3 years. I don't really get what was so fun about it, sure you level up or whatever, but it's still your very standard FPS.

Maybe actually playing it would change my mind about the game, but I really doubt that :/

Has anybody noticed that the ways enemies plead for their lives and what not are pretty elaborate and somewhat sad/comical at the same time?

It is not, I don't know why it came with a box cover over the case, but it just did. :3

It's funny, me and my friends just got a four pack, which is the max (obviously) players in
one multiplayer game.
Looks really good, sounds really good and I like the idea of the FPS+RPG.

This game will unlock in approximately 2 days and 20 hours - :D

It's mostly co op though there is a mode called "Duel" where you fight another player already in your co-op party. It's mostly just for fun with the only repercussion being having low health after the fight.
