firen Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Here is what they had to say Closing CommentsBLACK is everything you'd ever want in a shooter if all you ever wanted to do was shoot stuff. It's an extremely focused game that offers one of the most visceral gaming experiences you'll find anywhere. But, it offers little variation outside of blowing things up and its short length and lack of multiplayer will irk some people. No matter its faults, however, this is a game that everyone really should play through. After going through it ourselves, we can't help but think of the leaps that Criterion made with its Burnout series and are anxious to see if they'll carry over to BLACK as well. If nothing else, BLACK really, really makes us hunger for a sequel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoadorable Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 nice, thanks for posting. i think it was meant as an all out shoot fest, nothing more. if they nailed that than it's all good! thanks to activision i'm all spent for games this month, so it'll have to be a rental or wait till next month...

neoadorable Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 i wonder if aiming's a pain in the butt again like other console FPS's. hey papertiger where're your images from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nomis_nehc Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 i played it a bit last night. pretty awesome, but i am such a n00b playing fps on console... probably won't beat the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galley Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 I saw the title and thought WTF? My PS2 is already black! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoadorable Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 console FPS's suffer from aiming problems for me, there's no flexibility. Killzone was awesome except for that. were it on PC it would have rocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CinamNiLVED Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 I don't trust IGN, that review was more like a advertisment than objective analysis. I smell the stench of EA influence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavin001 Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 I got it yesterday! This game is a MUST for a ps2 gamer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arbiter Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 i dunno. it looks like it would be fun for a little bit, but these scores I am seeing are really disappointing for a game that OPM called "the last great PS2 game" at least it gives me one less game to have to spend money, since I'm already buying 24 for PS2 this week and I want to pick up Drill Dozer for Gameboy Advance as well.

TooPackShaker Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 the graphics and audio are impressive for ps2. the gameplay is decent enough. but its short. thats my review. a good rental. looking forward to see what they do with black 2 and beyond. look what they did going from the first burnout to revenge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sn00pie Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 I'm debating whether to get Black or Call Of Duty: Big Red One for PS2, which one do you guys feel is the best bang for the buck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoadorable Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 definitely BLACK, COD's a PC title and plays very mediocre on consoles, plus it's really not the same without the multiplayer magnitude you get for PC's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virgo89 Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Why are the levels sooo long and there are no game-save points (checkpoints) which makes you stay up till 2 to finish the dam level...but other then that the graphics are insane and almost everything is explosive.
