Bioshock doesnt have magic powers either.

You can make people unable to determine if someone is a freind or foe using necter. Is that really different from doing the same thing with the enrage plasid?

@fatman: sorry?
bioshock is simply the bastard child of system shock 2…
haze does not include upgrades and magic powers…

I think EA has done a great job of handling the Rock Band guitar and drums breaking issue. One of my friends Rock Band Strat broke and he got a new one within a month and got a free copy of Skate. So props to EA for taking responsibilty on that issue.

As for EA in the article, there’s a fine line between irony and hypocracy. It’s like a movie studio criticising a theatre when the movie the studio made either flops or makes millions. The theatre has little baring on the movie’s content (unless they totally cut stuff out like Ultraviolet). And EA’s no one to talk.
Take Boogie for instance. I think EA delibrately made that crap to proove how bad the Wii was.

The shake-the-wiimote dance was stupid.
The singing was off, because the mike needed to hear a sound before it would register imput.

The songs were nice, but not for a singing game.
The game refused to work with any mike than the one it came with so you have to spend $60 on an otherwise $30 game.
That’s Nintendo’s fault? EA, you need to take responsibilty for your own actions.

I’ve always admired stategic shooters, but I don’t play them for one reason: I suck! I can’t do stategy. I always get my ass handed to be on a silver platter. But that doesn’t mean I hate them. I think they’re an important genre.

@animekid

telling two teammates to stack up at a door and you goto another door that leads into the same room. Then you issue the order to brech, frag, and clear and they do that. At the time there doing that your taking out the enemy that’s popping up to shoot at your squadmates. Then you get some cover and get your squad to do the same because now there’s terrorists dropping from a copter and getting cover and now you gotta deal with that. What you describe in HAZE sounds like a good time but hardly a tactical type of game. It still is a run and gun game.

If you run in gun in RV6 your gonna get your ass handed to you. Taking it slow and thinking the situation through is the key. Also Haze might be good, but then again i don’t really care what comes out of FreeRadical anyway (timesplitters 1,2,and 3 are “meh” and so was Second Sight.)
