Old School Light Gun Style

EGM said this game was bad because you could walk around freely, but it played like a light gun game you can play at arcades. Everything popped out at you like things from a haunted house at a theme park. Also, they said the sword fighting was rusty. For all of you who are excited about the game (including me), don't get your hopes up too high, or you might be disappointed when it comes out.

First of all can we get a source?

Also when was this news published?

Next up, how can you say that this game will be like an arcade shooter when there is actual movement involved (you us the second part of the remote). It can only be considered "half" an arcade shooter.
Secondly hasn't Ubi-Soft claimed that the sword fighting will very polished?

I'd like to see the source of your news. You can just post random rumours unless you label them as rumours. Otheriwise this would fit in the General Discussion.

What the hell? You take EGM's opinion? They don't know anything, besides the stuff they make up. They are one of the most untrustworthy video game magazines on the market.

This game runs on the Half Life 2 engine so why wouldn't we be able to walk around? It's an FPS. Not a rail shooter. And I would also like to see a source.

This game will rock, they give crap reviews/previews to most of the games they review/preview.

That's what I was just telling sarpadon through a Private Message conversation. They don't give new games a chance.

re: Old School Light Gun Style

Besides. EGM is one source if you can call it that. People should really put together several sources on the product, shop around, get several opinions and finally try it out for themselves before making up their mind.

Just saying.

re: Old School Light Gun Style

Gameinformer and several mainstream Nintendo magazines have all given it great reviews. At E3 it was on the "Volcanic meter" during the G4 event. That means the people who played it, loved it.

This game has looked a little raily to me, though. I don't know, almost every screen I see reminds me of arcade shooters. You know, how the enemies move and are positioned... I still have high hopes for the game.

re: Old School Light Gun Style

Remember guys, it was just a quick demo that had been hastily transported from GC dev kits. Things have certainly improved since then.

I actually wouldn't say the game controls exactly like a light gun. I would say it's more of a light gun/dual analogue hybrid.

Do you say this because you move around using the analogue of the other part of the controller? If so then I agree with you Alkaline.

No, it just means that it looked good so everyone gave it a Volcanic rating. The ratings were all done at E3.G4tv.com. Users voted from a couple of ranks and it thats how it got the rating. Nobody that went to E3 had anything to do with that.

For the LAST time, this game does NOT run on the Half Life 2 engine. The HL2 engine was designed and built by Valve. Do you honestly think they're just going to give it away to Ubisoft? It runs on an engine SIMILAR to that of Half Life 2, but not the same engine.

Find me some proof that it uses the Source engine from HL2 and I MIGHT believe you.

I've seen it too. It was their E3 issue, and they gave it a 'horrible' rating on their 4 point scale. Do some research and youll see that they actually did it...

No, I mean the actual pointing isn't totally like a light fun. You more so drag a cursor around, rather than 'point' at the screen.

Hmm yeh good point, I guess this could still be considered aiming however.

Oh sorry, I meant it runs on an improved Unreal Engine.
