Everyone I know who's played it says it sucks.  I won't even bother pirating it at this stage.

I actually paid good money for it... Wasn't as good as I'd expected / hoped, but wasn't total rubbish either. Multiplayer is a bit on the crap side, but the story line is half decent as follow on from the movie (not to mentioning, featuring the real Hicks & Bishop as voice actors / characters. ...Better than any of the actual movie sequels.

 

If nothing else, i got enough joy from firing a pulse rifle in 7.2 surround.

...Neighbours probably, not so much.

Take-Two won't degrade GTA with biennial releases.

 


"Often times people ask us 'Why don't you come out with Grand Theft Auto every two years?' To us, that doesn't make sense, because Grand Theft Auto, every single time it comes out, is a brand new experience. You can't possibly do that in two years. And if we did that, our product would fatigue and the franchise would degrade from a value perspective."

I think that guy's over exaggerating a bit.  Just because the PS4 will have 8GB of RAM doesn't mean it will have better performance than a PC, and saying it'll last for years is funny.  Hell, mine's already better than the PS4.

 

Hype by a developer.

I can only I presume you're laughing at the quality of the game?  Not sure why a shitty game needs to be singled out though - it's not like there's a shortage of them.

A couple of things:


David Hayter will not be voicing Snake in Metal Gear Solid V
Hotline Miami 2 will take place in the '90s
and finally some potential Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon artwork has surfaced. (shown below)

That Deus Ex Human Revolution game was quite good, so hopefully the Thief game will be as good or better than that...

Being an original fan of Deus Ex, I really loved the way they did Human Revolution.  The only major downside was the ending, but every major game's downside is the ending lately.

The story in the Thief series of games has always been stellar, and I'm sure this team will get it right.  The ending will probably just be the exception.

To be honest I don't even remember the ending to Human Revolution.  I don't remember it being bad, but obviously it wasn't memorable.

I also enjoyed the original, and even enjoyed Invisible War despite it's deficiencies.
