If you're expecting GoW levels of combat mechanics, I think you're looking at the wrong title. </div></BLOCKQUOTE><BR><BR>no, not that. but the GI article made it seem (at least to me) that the combat got a bit frustrating. <BR><BR>i don't need Gears type combat, but if combat is bad due to design screw ups then i'll not be happy.
<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Has Bioware ever made anything that's stayed on the console exclusively for ever? </div></BLOCKQUOTE><BR><BR>isn't mass effect published by ms?<BR><BR>what have they published that has stayed on the xbox/360 exclusively? nothing that i know of.<BR><BR>i'd say in a year pc users will get a beefed up port of mass effect. or at least a port.
<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">its about time a game with a real story line is out. It's too bad some games sites don't seem to embrace how much more a good story telling experience out weighs everythign else in a game. </div></BLOCKQUOTE><BR><BR>to be fair i want this game but framerate issues/combat/inventory issues will make a game less fun for me. story is all well and good but you do have to play it. now, if it were a movie then that'd be different.<BR><BR>this will be a next year used purchase for me if i keep the 360 and don't move over to the ps3.
<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">even with the possible flaws. </div></BLOCKQUOTE><BR><BR>well they sound like actual flaws to me. sounds like the actual gameplay was an afterthought but i won't know till i eventually play it.
<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Also! What's with the slowdown and occasional frame rate choppiness? I can understand that on a PC where they can't tune for every configuration, but I really don't see how that's something you let fly as a developer on a console. </div></BLOCKQUOTE><BR><BR><BR>this is what really gets me about the game. all the reviews are making this sound like a game that had a year to build the story and 6 months to program the engine/get it out the door. yes, they all say their small issues, but in the realm of 4-600 dollar consoles and all this next gen horseshit, this stuff just shouldn't fly.<BR><BR>i know kotor wasn't exactly a smooth flowing marvel but i expect more from a much more powerful system. it almost seems like they should have used a different engine since the ut3 engine seems to run all over the place on the 360.
