8 hours is more than enough to review a sandbox game.

8 hours is enough to review Portal, not a game of any actual size. And it's definately not enough to review a serious sandbox game. Specifically, no one should review a game they haven't finished (and played fairly thoroughly) unless there's a damn good reason not to finish it. Unless you support rushed and inaccurate reviews, that is...

pre ordered it so ill get it today

 

[hopeneverdies]

Wait, its already out?! Damn, am I clueless, or what?

It is?

In USA. Europe still has 3 days to go.

I know you people don't trust Gamespot (I also don't - I always use Metacritics), but there are few reviews from Xbox people.

I STILL CAN'T WAIT.

Considering people there thought Too Human deserved a 9/10, I don't trust them

It's coming out today so I'll have it by this afternoon. Pre-ordered so I might get the figurine but I'm not sure. oh well this is will be the best day of my life.


WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

 

[Drakulla]

I'm thinking of buying it. I heard from a friend and he thinks its really cool.

 

[Flap Jack452]

I'm heading to Best Buy later this afternoon, so I'll let you know my initial thoughts when I've played it a bit.

Hey asshole, that's my review. Sorry I didn't get caught up in the hype train and expected it to be the best game ever. After a boring summer, it was nice to have a hack'n'slash game.

I'll give it a few weeks before I decide if I want it yet.

Sorry, the whole armor degradation and controls just pushed me over the edge.

Truly, though I did enjoy going berserker and pinballing the weaker goblins.

 

[Mackinator]

I never even heard of it coming out until now.
This is why Nintendo make so much money - Their advertising really works in this country as far as I see.

 

[Roamin11]

Im going to kill slaughter and pull a Alex Mercer just to get this game.....

DAMIT I SHOULD HAVE PREORDERED

 

[terribleyetfun]

DAMN still no release date for Australia and that`s one of things wrong with the country I live in.

Armor degradation? I haven't played it yet, please explain.

8 hours is more than enough for a reviewer to learn the gameplay, get the basic feel of the levels and story.

If you want to comeplete everything and see all the endings/cutscenes/stuff it will probably take more than 8 to 10 hours.

 

[T-Bone24]

I preordered, the release date is Friday (the 12th) in the UK. Here. But it was sent out today with 2 day delivery! I'mma gettin' it a day early! Cookies and high fives for all!

It's released today mate.

 

[soulasylum85]

i have to wait til 1 to go get it because thats when gamecrazy is getting it in and i refuse to buy from gamestop

 

[Hamster at Dawn]

It's out? I will probably rent it when I get the chance.

 

[scoHish]

It's one of those games you can run around and ignore the story and still enjoy yourself, so I'm a fan of it. The melee combat isn't exactly deep, but if you use the projectile powers it feels like a third-person shooter. So if your into that sort of thing give it a shot.
