Kain and Eternal Darkness means you're wrong.Xater said:
But for this century they've been completely hit or miss.

This game looks pretty fun, not a masterpiece but fun!
Thunder Monkey said:
Never liked Eternal Darkness. To this day I believe it is overrated because it was on the Gamecube.
Just watched the first part of this guy playing. Yeah this looks terribad. The combat looks awful and graphics are bad. Just look at those cheap effects! especially the teleportation one. I also don't understand why the dodge for a teleporter is a fucking cartwheel. I totally know why they did it, so the could just do one animation no matter what power you choose. Problem with that is that it totally doesn't reflect the powers you have.

I owned all four home consoles last gen.Xater said:
Eternal Darkness wasn't even my favorite survival/horror title on the Cube, let alone counting the DC, Xbox, and PS2.
But I still thought it was good. And I loved the "twist" after beating the game three times.
But given everything they've made since... which is like... what? One game? I don't hold much hope for today's SK to do anything approaching quality.

Legacy of Kain, Eternal Darkness and Twin Snakes was a solid game. No, they weren't AAA titles, but they all had their merits and stood out in the crowd of other titles at the time.

I enjoyed Twin Snakes... and yet I'd completely forgotten they made it.

Well, at the time, my blind Nintendo fanboy-ism prevented me from liking anything Metal Gear until MGS4 (now I hate all systems equally). Eterenal Darkness was my shit...It was like H.P. Lovecraft wrote the screenplay for The Never Ending Story.
EDIT: ED's combat was kinda clunky and the overall aesthetics of the character models put me off for some reason or another (perhaps it was showing its N64 roots). But I loved the narrative and the atmosphere. LoK I repesect, bt I'm not the biggest RPG fan.

Isn't the Ultimate version of Juggernaut a mutant, though? I know he still got the gem later, but he had his powers as a mutant in that instead of being normal and gaining them with the gem like in the original runs.

I'm going to go with yes since he was part of the Mutant X program.hikarutilmitt said:

Found some walkthrough footage on youtube. Are there really no ground textures? Like seriously?

I don't think Epic wants their name anywhere NEAR this game.Shiggy said:Activision tries to keep the game under the radar, they don't want to be sued by Epic Games

lol'd so hard at that gameplay video.
Wouldn't be surprised if this is bargain bin a week after it releases. Looks soooo bad.

So it takes 9 years to get Too Human quality graphics and 3 years to get X-Men Destiny quality graphics with that engine.Xander51 said:
Not the most easy to use, apparently.

Haha, yes I know.Shiggy said:
Even still I don't think that Silicon Knights are really capable of doing competent graphics this generation, no matter how much time they sink into them.

That is weird, maybe this isnt the final build of the game?
How can they release this in this form?

Those are some of the worst environmental textures I've seen in awhile. PS2 games have better textures. Its like they are using 1 256x256 texture for the whole ground.

I was gonna go over to Blockbuster today. If they have it I'll bite the bullet and play it so everyone else doesn't have to.

Worse looking barbed wire ever, no hyperbole.
It looks like a graphic bug, just a long band of unconnected black splotches.
Just got to the Magneto part.

This game is shaping up to be the next Tony Hawk Ride, I LOVE IT!
If only it cost $130 to sweeten the deal.

Yeah. I would just like some impressions on how much of an rpg it actually is. I'm not so down on this game, still intersted to see how it will turn out.Captain N said:

My interest would be in someone comparing it to the console version.Captain N said:
So if you ever play both versions make a post about it.
