| Fair enough. I wrongly assumed that an assessment of core fundamentals in a established genre, wouldn't result in polar opposite opinions at EG. I had thought that controls either good or bad + jank would be less of a matter of opinion. I'll fire it up and see if I'm transported back to 2013. |

Looking for the heart of Halo in Bungie's finest moment
| I remember Haze being announced as a game that would be better than Halo with its four player co-op. I might be wrong but I seem to remember that Halo 3 had two player co-op announced and then they made it four player in response to all the Haze hype. |

Performance Analysis: Assassin's Creed Unity

Extended Far Cry 3 gameplay
|
I loved the open world setting of FC2. This isn't going to be open world with the ability to approach each situation as you please. FC3 looks to be focused and scripted - that's a shame. Also developers please stop throwing points up on the screen for kills. |

New Rainbow Six title in the works?
| @ISmoke - likewise, I dread to think how many games of TH I played on Vegas 1 - I remember that there would always be one terrorist left and everyone had their own tactic to make him spawn or come to you. Tense times - especially if your team mates are dead. Looking forward to some more news on this. |

Homefront played by 32 people
| Initial reaction - I would of liked to have seen Kaos stick with the near future setting that they had with Frontlines Fuels of War. I enjoyed Frontlines so I'm looking forward to seeing what they bring to the table. I just hope there is some cool tech to play around with in Homefront. I miss the Frontlines chopper & jets (even though I couldn't fly jets) |

Medal of Honor multiplayer footage
| Is it a prerequisite that everybody goes FULLY AUTOMATIC in MOH? I might have got the wrong end of the stick, but I thought the PR guys were selling this as the authentic/serious alternative to COD ... Anyway, looks like the US really takes it to Taliban. Appears to be a fun game if you're the good guys. Everyone knows that Taliban's are uneducated and stupid (that's the authentic PR part) Dice made sure that aim down slight is disabled and once a round the whole team is teleported in front of a US mounted machine gun. Therefore ensuring that every US solider can get loads of kills and commendations. They love their medals. |

Helios_CM: "As an example, a common issue we've seen is where you shoot someone 10 times and they don't die, this will be addressed in the patch/title update." "One has to wonder how the chuff that got past QA..." +1 The equivalent racing game issue would be… we’ve noticed that the steering doesn’t work on certain tracks. Last time played an FPS shooting and killing was the core mechanic. I might add that this bug has f'ked me on numerous occasions whilst playing hardcore and I’m still on my first play through. |

| I'll reserve judgement until I see it in action, but my gut feeling say's that dual wielding isn't a good thing. On a side note - I can't wait to see the kidz with modded controllers empty two desert eagle clips into my face within 0.5secs. |

@Smoothpete + material for his Rap career. No your DVD drive isn't skipping, this is .50 back online giving you an ass whooping. Y'all know i've got good game, with Calculated Offensive Destruction, lyricaly I'm like a C130, devistating with unprecedented accuracy. One Shot One Kill, MacMillan couldn't touch me. I'll fuck you online till your ring goes red, I'm Triple A, Your Triple Zee like Halo ODST. What!? |

It would be rap music. You have strong views on rap music, so much so that you are willing to not purchase a potential GOTY becuase of .50 minor involvement. I was untrigued by this and assumed that someone with such strong views would want to abstain from all media involved in promoting this subject matter (including GTA). I also figure that on GTA you don't listen to the The Beat 102.7 |

Schnide - From a UK standpoint, I would argue that listening to aggressive rap music is another form of escapism. Like any other form of entertainment a person could a take their interest to an unhealthy level. The type of media and its involvement society, in particular the way that it influences a person’s behaviours and values is far too big for a comments thread. Assuming that .50 will just be a voice in COD:MW2 - the enjoyment that you should get from playing spec-ops with a friend will dwarf any ill feelings that you have towards .50 telling you to “Reload”. Let’s get his involvement into perspective. |
