Well length is always subjective :p but variation is definitely needed for the sequel. I don't think they can do much with the storyline because any attempt at elegant and meaningful storyline would be destroyed the first time you forcibly pushed a grenade up a grunt's behind then booted him into the gaping maw of a giant venus fly trap :p I guess sometimes we have to compromise between comic book gameplay and comical storylines.

That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying the storyline was just stupid and poorly scripted. All the random sci-fi garbage they threw in there for no reason was horrible. Just look at action comedy movies: there are tons of them that have fine storylines.

I thought the story was perfectly fine. Wasn't expecting much considering the type of game it was, and was surprised it had a decent story. Of course it's not deep, but it gets the job done. In fact, I thought it was pretty genious how they did the tutorial level. My only complaints are the few spots were the quips seemed a little forced.

Epic just released the "Gun Sonata" add-on, which adds two new Echoes maps and three new Anarchy maps for 800 MS points. There are 5 new achievements. Apparently there will be another new map pack soon, because the PC version of the DLC accidentally revealed an additional 5 new achievements for unreleased maps.

Seems like a rip-off to me, given how little time it takes to make Echoes maps from the campaign and how small the Anarchy maps are (and likely how little time goes into making them, compared to other multiplayer map packs).

Ishi/Trishka definitely does get in the way half the time. While trying to improve my scores in Echoes, I'm usually yelling "Get outta the way you ****!!" lol Still love the game, though. It's amazing how much potential there is for skillshots. Just when you think you've seen it all, someone finds ways to unleash even more mayhem.

What's the final game like, I played the demo and it was pretty sweet, I couldn't believe some of the stuff in it lol, for example the combo kill being called a gangbang

If you liked the demo you should love the full game. I didn't enjoy the demo but mainly got the full game for the Gears of War 3 beta and enjoyed it a bit. It has very limited replayability, though.

    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      By matthiew · Posted

      Huh? You're delusional calling the Steam Deck dead. It is so successful that it has sold out multiple times. Even after the price hike this year it sold out again with 24 hours of being back in stock. The demand is real and has not died down even after four years.
