    this coming from a person who listed mass effect 2 as a game they liked just like a day ago ¬.¬

    So you defended someone else's position by citing no evidence other than it just is...Man our arguments sure do plunge the depths of debate...

    I'm surprised you haven't made a pacman map, pacmonster. Clearly it is your destiny.

    o_O....I've recreated pacman through flash. Halo is not really conducive to proper pacman play, the pacman mini-game really isn't that fun.

    IS THAT A CHALLENGE?

    I really need to make an image for that phrase, I use it all the time.

    See? I love intelligent people. That's like saying, But guyyyy this bicycle doesn't go as fast as that camero, but you can't fault it for that, because they're not the same. I don't give a damn, I don't want a bike.

    Flash? What's that? Some sort of alien **** probe that thinks it's too cool to play reach? ;P

    The game is chunky. The talent trees are static and boring letting you customise only slightly, unless you're behind a rock or pillar during combat you'll get torn to shreds almost instantly, running requires you hold a button, Planet Scanning, there isn't much to do during combat other than "rock/ paper/ scissors" between Cryo, Disruptor and Incendiary ammo, and running out of ammo mid battle is common, especially on harder difficulties, even if you don't miss.

    Not to mention the effect of the decisions taken from the original game are minute at best.

    Stay gold ponyboy.

    Never played Mass Effect. But generally, all 3rd person games are clunky.

    GoW
    Army of two
    Mass effect [I assume]

    There is, [​IMG]

    What....?

    Yeah....miniclip.com just full of alien **** probes...

    None of what you just described is "chunky" (and we were talking about clunky). See this is why we called you a hipster...you just listed this game as a game you like and for no other reason than for the sake of arguing you're attributing how boring a game is to how clunky it is just because I'm arguing that it isn't with the definition of what makes a game clunky. You can say "because it is" as much times as you wish, it doesn't make it true.

    And flamingo I wouldn't lump ME2 with GoW and definitely not Army of 2.

    And instead of just saying, "Fine, I think the game was too boring" or just "the action got in the way of the story telling" I bet the next response I get will be some more bull about why it's "chunky"....

    So did I, just saying that if anyone was excited about Dead Island (like I was), it's most likely because they thought the game would present a more serious, somber tone, as opposed to pretty much every other zombie game ever created.


    Today I got to see about 15 minutes of Dead Island in action. What words would I use to describe the gameplay?

    Silly. Wacky. Goofy.

    Clumsy, unsophisticated, awkward - the words Clumsy and Chunky are interchangeable. What is chunky is almost always clunky. Semantics.

    Onto the second point, people can like something, but still find problems with it. The alternative, liking something and being unable to find problems with it, would make you a fanboy. The combat - the movement and the mechanics, has superfluous parts and generally feels unnatural.

    I think the only reason anyone really likes Mass Effect is for its characters and its universe. The gameplay in the second was entertaining enough in my opinion to serve as filler between conversations and story elements, but nobody played the game for its combat. I would never classify it as clunky or chunky or clumsy or whatever-the-**** word we're using now, though.

    And my edit was proven correct

    [​IMG]

    reasons why I love the internet...sometimes very predictable

    As far as listing problems with the game, oh I could list a lot of problems with the game....none of them would describe it as clumsy, awkward, chunky or whatever.

    shatakai...is that a bulletstorm sig?

    What website should I use to watch full movies.. I'd rather not download them, but if one of you vouches for it that'll be fine.

    If you're going to talk like an idiot I see no reason I should have to respond like one.

    Good day sir.
