I really enjoyed rescue team 1 & 2 so was glad to try the 3rd game. This version is Fast paced and fun. Some of the improvements to the game were positive such as the better animation of characters, the inclusion of robbers, doctors & firemen. The use of a small tick to register a selected action was an excellent idea, particularly useful when the game reaches a more hectic pace. Having a best time record was also a positive change. I loved the animal rescue scenarios - rounding up the rabbits and squeaking badgers made me laugh. I think that a purley animal resuce game would be amazing. Changes to the game that were embarrassingly annoying were the characters and conversations between each level. Trying to appeal only to a male audience I think is also a mistake and may account for the reason why this version of the game is rated lower than the previous games. However my biggest grumble about this game is the fact that the gameplay to achieve gold level is virtually impossible to acheive on many levles and I doubt very much that any of the staff that developed this game actually trialled the game to this level. The time is ridculously short on many levels and even perfect game play will not acheive gold - frustrating and reduceds replay value. I have played Rescue one and two and felt that the levels were set just about right, they gave you a challenge that you could eventually achieve .....this aspect of the game 3 is very annoying.
A good game. You don't need the CE version to enjoy a good well thought out game with a proper ending but the addition of a good bonus game makes this a winner! A good ending for a well written series of games!
Just bought this game on special and thank Jesus cause if i payed full price id be screaming my head off, the game mechanics are way complicated.the graphics are good and it doesnt seem to lag, but whats the point if you cant figure out how the game works, the tutorial suxs it doesnt really teach you anything, The economics system doesnt make any sense nor does the diplomacy, Crusader Kings 2 is a much better buy, easier to understand and sure it lags a bit but a least its easy to figure out, unlike this complicated mess.
Botanicaula is gorgeous, funny, smart, and charming. Despite the strangeness of it, everything feels very human. And the strangeness itself is very engaging. It's great to dive into a place that's so truly foreign and so beautiful. Every bit of it's wonderful, including the music and sound design.
Plays beautifully on my MBP 2.3 GHz i7. I really wish they would label the large ships in battle. I want to save the Titan, but I just don't know which ship it is or where it's located. I like the story, but found that the ending didn't seem to justify the difficulty in getting through the last section. It's much more fun to play the middle levels, after you finally get the strike suit. I would also prefer a more prominent warning when you're leaving the battlefield. I love the look and behavior of the strike suit, so my gripes end up being pretty minor. The massive space battles look amazing and render effortlessly.
Als ich das Spiel das erste mal gestartet habe, war ich ziemlich skeptisch. Natürlich hat CoD seine Schwächen, stupides Gegner abknallen, ohne taktische Tiefe, schnurgerade Schlauchlevels und wenig eigene Entscheidungen. Auf der anderen Seite ist die Grafik hervorragend und die Story packend. Ich habe die Kampagne schnell durchgehabt, das macht aber nichts, weil man gerne auch mal ein paar Missionen wiederholt. Der Arcade-Modus sorgt dann noch einmal für einen Motivationsschub. Leider glänzt Modern Warfare 1 ni9cht gerade mit riesiger Waffenauswahl, die Entwickler haben sich scheinbar aufs Wesentliche beschränkt. Da sieht es bei Black Ops wesentlich besser aus.
When I started the game the first time, I was pretty skeptical. Of course CoD shoot has its weaknesses, stupid enemies without tactical depth, straight tube levels and little own decisions. On the other hand, the graphics are excellent and the story gripping. I have been through the campaign quickly, but that does not matter because you also like to repeat a few times missions. The arcade mode ensures then again for a motivation boost. Unfortunately shines Modern Warfare 1 not just with a huge selection of weapons, the developers have apparently restricted to the essentials. Since it looks much better in Black Ops.
What appears to be a good game very sadly let down by the fact that each time you load it the characters including your own are not visible, apart from small pieces of them. The only solution I have found so far is to keep exiting and reloading over and over until it does you can see your character. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. Even if I quit and restart mac.
When I do eventually get the characters to load if I open spellbook it crashes/freezes.
Can't find any support or updates for this game either.
I bought this for my iPad 3 weeks ago and I can't get ahead because of all the weird words the CPU keeps throwing in. Words that originate in Hindi and words that are not even words! You never know what words its going to pull out. I miss the old version of this from 2008. :(
Great free-running stealth action, I also loved immersive The Da Vinci Code like story and puzzle, actually it's hard to stop playing once you started.
You may feel control is uncomfortable with keyboard at first, but shouldn't take long to get used to it.
This is the best game i ever played i think exept its a to short story, i played this game on one day and then its was over but i want more i feel it can't be over now, everything was just right in this game the hint system is good and the story was good the sequel Hidden World was not by far as fun
Summary: Metro is a dark, graphically very good and perfectly ported game. It tells its story with just enough cutscenes to allow for some rest between (or during) each chapter. The only two "not as good as the rest of the game" things are the level design (linearity) and, sometime, the animations and AI of the NPCs.
The good points: - From a technical point of view, it's one of the best port I've seen: The graphics are great and the game performs perfectly, even at max settings. Although I've played it on a computer well above the minimum specifications, the game should be playable with good quality on many recent Macs with a dedicated GPU. - There's a story, with some surprises and a lot of cutscenes. They can be skipped for a more "action packed" and less "story driven" gaming experience (Although I don't see any reason to skip them). - The graphic style is dark and fits perfectly with the game's post-apocalyptic world. - The soundtrack is very good. In game-sound is also very good and seems to be exploiting the optical output (for true 5.1 sound). - Gameplay (Keyboard + mouse) is good, although Aim-assist is enabled by default (It can be disabled). - There's enough content to justify the price even with only one playthrough. Above that, the game can be played more than once... I will just because there's more than one ending! - My XBox 360 controller (USB) was recognised by the game. The drawback is that it can't be disabled in-game and must be unplugged. As I dislike playing FPS with a pad it remains untested.
The "Not as good" points: - NPCs sometime have strange reactions and less than perfect animations. - The levels are a bit linear.
The bad: Hmmm... let's see...
Conclusion: Excellent port of an excellent game. If you like a good FPS from time to time and have some money to spend, buy Metro.
