Well, I rarely get betrayed, but I ahve wanted to shout it as a mocking bellow when I de-light bridge someone in Portal 2 while they are over an acid pit.Neverhoodian said:
Black Ops, every time I inserted the disc with misplaced hope, to find the playerbase swarming with fags.
Brink.
The gunplay is awful, the campaign has respawning and is team-based despite the fact that your teammates suck massive dong, the parkour is clumsy, and the customization is lacking. There are a lot of choices of clothing, but most of them are shit.

I shed a single tear when he left Naughty Dog... The wound is still there...dancinginfernal said:
Biggest BETRAAAAAYL though? Bioshock 2's good ending (no spoilers) or the entirety of DA2. That game is a steaming pile of manure, on a hot day, right next to your bedroom window... Absolute and utter shite...
That... That's not Brothers in Arms...Neverhoodian said:
It's a different frankenstein, TF2 rip-off-ing, terrible beast altogether...
Why? Couldn't they have just made it a different game? Wouldn't that save a whole ton of problems from the fanbase and make it a little more appealing? Stupid move on their part, I say.
At the moment, no beloved series of mine pops into my head. But I do feel a little pissed at Gearbox for that atrocious fecal-beast which was showcased in that trailer.
"Majesty 2 is going to be released." Awesome! I loved the original game!
"There will be no random maps." ...What?
"Also the heroes will be generic archetypes, unlike the original." ...WHAT?
"Also there won't be Adepts, because Lunord went insane and got kicked from the pantheon."
BETRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYL!!!!
Lunord, the god who guided Sidrian into becoming Ardania's first great king, who used his Sacred Chalice to communicate to the earth his WILLING ABDICATION TO HIS KIDS, who saved the life of Ardania's greatest king through said chalice... is the ONE god to go POWER-MAD?
Not Krolm, God of Rage! Not Fervor, God of Chaos! Not Dauros, God of Order! No, it's the GOD WHO HELPED HUMANITY THE MOST!

I don't think they are canceling the main story arc, that would be foolish. I doubt they would give the main series to a different development team (they're different right?) as they could screw up the main storyline. I'd say it's a spin-off so I'd relax a bit. I can sympathize with your frustration though.Neverhoodian said:
And given the trailer, isn't this the non-serious arcade FPS that everyone is pining for? I've been waiting for "Inglorious Bastards: The Game" for quite some time.
OT: Star fox Adventures. Both a betrayal to the fanbase and the developer. Shame Nintendo.
I don't know about feeling betrayed with the whole Brothers in Arms thing, but I certainly know a trailer is doing someone wrong when I feel sorry for drunk nazis and hate the main characters after only seeing them for a minute.Neverhoodian said:
To address your question, though... I am some what like this about X-Com, but I understand why a company is wanting to go with what's popular right now. But on the other hand, I reckon they would've made a killing with a turn-based squad game in the current climate of games (oh look, another shooter).
ohhh, so many. when splinter cell was dumbed down to appeal to the simpler demographics of the xbox audiences. when the call of duty series became utterly consolized with mw2. when the sequel to the fallout series was announced - but it was going to be a soulles oblivion with guns with nothing of the charme and the wit of the original..
it's dark days for gamerkind indeed.

see, i never could take that aspect of brothers of arms quite serious. simply due to the fact that, as dramatic and moving the deaths are portraied, it all goes to hell when 8 dudes slaughter entire batallions worth of german soldiers. somehow the cost of war is somehow mispotraied and all pretentions for realistic display of the horrors of war are involuntarely dropped when a handfull of americans are standing on a hill of smoldering nazi corpses numerous enough to populate several bavarian mountain village. the (very entertaining, nontheles!) band of brothers miniseries was guilty of this as well. i call it the "james ryan syndrome". unfortunately it's unavoidable. the audiences want to see glorious american heroes butchering the german subhumans by the hundreds. if any game or show displayed a serious and realistic ratio of deaths on both sides, most audiences, especially american ones, would be butthurt (butthurt by the truth, heh). and yet, that's exactly what it would take, for me at least, to take a serious message, like the brothers in arms games have, serious. i don't know why this one certain aspect of nonrealism bums me out so much, it just does.Ninjamedic said:
Metroid: Other M.
The best looking, most magnificent and epic game ever made by Nintendo... and it's still terrible.
