Well in fairness on the Sprint one on the PC we have to put up with things like pick up weapons and use on the same button when we should have the option for them to be separate buttons. I don't care what anyone says about making control schemes overly complicated but when something like this costs you several scrims it is a serious problem.Soylent Bacon said:
OT: How in Oblivion you block then attack twice. That strategy beats everything. Just block and attack twice and your arm seemingly never ever gets tired from holding up that big old shield. Yes I am aware that a mod fixes this and I have it.
I think they have various neural interfaces built into their armour so they can fire kinda like the Predator can. Like they have something on a Hud that shows them where to aim. That and practise I mean it is not like they have anything better to do but die for the Emperor.The Apothecarry said:
When a game makes you do incredibly menial and mundane tasks for the sake of realism. No, roman, I don't want to go bowling, but at least I can turn on sleep mode, the game doesn't make me do it. Heavy Rain is another story. I don't have a ps3, so I haven't played it, but I did watch a playthrough. You know, when the game delved into its murder mystery routes and actually had you investigating stuff or fighting or doing a challenge, I was actually interested. The problem is that the game decides to separate those sections with long periods of time where you open and close medicine cabinets, set tables, go to the bathroom, watch a kid do his homework, shave, fry eggs, and other things for hours and half hours on end. We wouldn't accept this crap in a movie, so why the hell should we accept it in a game?
The size of the horns on the Qunari head honcho in Dragon Age 2.
Seriously, how the hell does that fucking guy sleep?

God of War - the stupid Medusa's turning you to stone and then other guys can one hit kill you, but when they are stone, after 5 or so hits, they just break out of the stone.
ATTENTION FANTASY RPG BANDITS:
THE 7 FOOT TALL ENTITY IN SHINING PLATINUM ARMOR WITH THE SWORD AND SHIELD OF THE GODS WALKING DOWN THE ROAD COVERED IN BLOOD WOULD PROBABLY NOT MAKE A GOOD TARGET TO TRY AND EXTORT MONEY FROM.

Talking to someone aparently freezes time and removes you from existence for a few minutes while you go through dialogue trees.
Kill the baddie, or have him locked up for the rest of his life (probably tortured a bit since mass murder is frowned upon). And yet it has to give you good/bad karma for your decision.
The way my G.I.s will stand next to a burning building, apparently oblivious to the single tank on the other side very slowly taking it's hp down (what? I suck at micro-management)
and at that, why a single tank shell can not destroy a soldier.
'Say, that guy over there? You know, the one who slaughtered all of because he got short changed, do you think we should bother him with a quest to go and find our lost kitten in the ventilation system?'
likewise: 'Say, you know that guy who killed his own father because he was a corrupt, immoral bastard? Let's see if he's willing to kill these people for us'
Me and my brother playing fallout have a running joke about how people see us in-game
Liam? yeah, you can trust him with any job, just don't leave any valuables on display. He'll do anything for a named weapon. *Anything*

Having to sit through a massive loading screen when you die. The absolute WORST offender is Persona 3. When you first have to watch a cutscene of Igor sitting on his arse in the Velevt Room while the same fricking text appears on screen every time. Then it send you back, not to the title screen, but to the first title card. Then you have to select you file and wait for it to load. It takes about 3 minutes. Symphony of the Night also has that problem but that game sucks anyway.
Oh my god. I hate that so much!ragsmorrison said:
I also get annoyed in Dragon Age Origins and Dragon Age II when you blatantly use blood magic in front of people, no one is appropriately scandalized. I expected to people to freak out more.
That there are no MMO's for consoles. I mean, I understand the problem. You have a very small number of buttons on a controller, no-one wants to buy a keyboard for a PS3, and there are legal limitations, but surely there can be at least console MMO.
Any game that claims it is realistic. No, COD, your not, one shot from the worst pistol will probably kill you in real life. While I'm fine with unrealistic gameplay in return for more fun, games should stop pretending that they are realistic.
Homefront
The characters and their "strategies" in no way reflect guerilla warfare, lack overall imagination, and make me wonder how these stupid fucks ever survived 2 years. I know they're not soldiers, but come on... Most of the strategies are essentially charging through the front door. What makes these plans so much more agonizingly stupid is that the Koreans are well prepared in terms of static defense; I honestly wished some missions would fail because I felt the Koreans deserved to win. And then there's the issue of rescuing a pilot, who's essential to a mission, and then risking his death by making come on raids.
