I really want to get it for the PS3 but
No online play makes me wanna hold off.

[CexMashean]

And that's why im getting it for xb360, and letting the ps3 collect some dust?

SAVE YOUR MONIES

This is the first time I've ever felt truly scammed when buying a game. I had a lot of faith in SD to deliver something special. I mistook the lack of a demo and no reviews as quiet confidence, but it was just them hiding the messy truth about this broken game

[CexMashean]

Yea, not feeling it too much so far.

I was thinking of buying it, but when I heard the campaign is only gonna be about 10 hours, I figured I'd just reactivate my gamefly account and get it that way.

its been pretty dismal, i've been listening to my buddy bitch about it for the last few hours on steam.
had to create autoexec for support past 1920x1200, and it looks like triple buffering is being forced. performance on xfire setups is bad.

[CexMashean]

i'm going to give it a week, and if i just can't get into it, i'm selling it.

Given, starting out, you don't have many abilities or any kind of weapon attachments. Maybe it'll get better after that.

[clevelandkid]

All the trailers ive seen looked pretty weaksauce. I'm thinking this is a rental at best.

Another reason why console>pc

I'm having REALLY bad lag issues when I'm in-game. Fucking pissing me off.

hahahahahahha


This is what you get when you port a console game to the pc dude, not the other way around. Blame the dev's, not the platform. Enjoy your 256mb of vram.

If it plays my games smoothly in 1080p HD, believe me, I will, and do. Enjoy upgrading your PC every year to play new games.

I actually do enjoy upgrading my pc, but that's besides the point. My 6core, 12gb, 400gb ssd raid, 6970 2gb gddr5 in crossfire, and 2560x1600 or 6160x1600 (if i'm feeling freaky) should last me more than year. Especially with console ports dumbing down pc games.

Edit: just a tid bit of info about ps3/360; I can count about 5 games that are true 1080p, everything else is just upscaled.
