It's the truth!

I tried it on hard after I beat it on normal and I'm having no such luck. >.>

I don't have much to say, but ... I just can't get into this game at all. I really want to like it, I love the setting and all but it's just so un-engaging and boring.

I think I'm just really picky with open-ended FPS's or something.

I agree on the headshot thing. Taking three shots to the face before dying is rather silly.

I'm still having a pretty good time with it, though. I just wish I had more money...

My issue with this game. I never liked Oblivion.

I quite happily got through the training part of this game. The MOMENT I set foot bleary eyed into the bloomed up outdoors, everything I hated about Oblivion smacked me straight in the face.

Massive, samey outside, awkward to navigate towns (although in this case it's even worse)... The only thing that justifies these is the setting, so such things are understandable and forgivable, to a point.

There's also being able to get through the main storyline without leveling up at all, meaning side quests can become more difficult than the main quest. A friend tells me it's the same thing here.

Attacks seem to have a hit chance, which seems pointless in realtime combat. I want my headshots to kill in one like any other shooter, not be bogged down by JRPG style level and attribute systems that make them only do more damage than normal.

Melee combat is clunky, even moreso when using the VACS thing or whatever the abbreviation is. I expected something where you character would be very fluent in his/her animation, rather than three or four separate attacks which are nothing spectacular, slowed down to half speed.

Silent protagonist, despite having communication options.

So as you can tell, I didn't enjoy it. I'll just stick to Far Cry 2, Dead Space and Saint's Row for now.

Just got it. It basically is Oblivion, but in a different setting and with guns. And with women who actually look like women.

Haven't gotten very far. I made my way to the Radio Station in search of my father, but I was way too ill-prepared, so I made a stop into Super-Duper Mart and got myself some guns (Chinese Pistol sucks...=/).

The landscape is pretty cool. Some of the possible answers for conversations are pretty hilarious, too.

Same developers by the way.

Bloody good fun, it is! If you liked (or even moderately enjoyed) Oblivion, this is just like that, but with cussing, gore, gore, guns, radiation zombies, gore and awesome graphics.

Haven't really heard much of this series until this game started being hyped up the whazoo. Seems to be getting some good reviews, might as well check it out.

Interested to hear what it's like.

I'm hearing great things so far, lots of good reviews.

Well, it wasn't in anywhere in town (not even at Gamestop) but BLOCKBUSTER had it. I am now putting in the game...
