    I hope this game makes it to consoles someday. I saw the psp/ds port on their website, but ps3 or 360 would be nice.

    I played the beta and read the RPS articles religiously. I'd just rather sit on the couch and play...

    Oh and this game is amazingly fun once you get the hang of it. I recommend it. #bloodbowl

    The game has all kinds of problems (connectivity, UI, tutorials, different types of glitches, not so high production value), but if you're into Bloodbowl, or rugby/american football and all things "orcs and dwarfs" the game is quite enjoyable and private leagues are tons of fun.

    Also, the game is meant to be played in turn-based mode, even if there is a real time mode.

    To anyone on the fence about this one, I strongly recommend to read the match write ups at rockpapershotgun.com. That's what got me into this game. #bloodbowl

    I was a huge fan of mutant league football and somewhat of mutant league hockey.

    How does this game compare?

    I've heard mixed things but this free DLC looks like a positive. #bloodbowl

    @Taggart6 once shot a man just to watch him die.: I haven't played mutant league football, but supposedly bloodbowl is quite similar, though after being released in france a few months ago it STILL has ridiculous connection issues, making it nearly unplayable online for some people (as in, only being able to successfully create a match with someone around 1/20 tries) #bloodbowl

    @Taggart6 once shot a man just to watch him die.: The game is a lot of fun, but it has its problems.

    Mainly, the game is based off of an old tabletop miniatures game of the same name. It uses the same rules as the tabletop game, and the game just DOES NOT do very well explaining the damn thing.

    Expect to read the rulebook for the tabletop version (which is supplied digitally, at no cost) to have a full understanding of what is going on. If you are willing to spend a bit of time on the game, the investment will pay off. If that sounds like too much effort, then skip it.

    That's all well and good, but how's the difficulty? Does the AI still make all those ridiculous "YOU LOSE even though you were doing so well" shots?

    @cio:

    I have the Korean version, and for the most part, the AI is, to quote Yahtzee, "pants-on-head retarded." Most of their shots land in the rough. Several times I've seen them waste a Power Shot on a Tomahawk Shot... when they were on the edge of the green... and then completely overshoot the green.


    There were a few rare cases of the AI getting long distance chip-ins... but VERY rare and only in the later chapters of the story mode.

    This is the FF that champions angst. As such, some people look entirely too deeply into the game, some people worship it as understanding their teenage years, and other people defined their teenage years by it.


    The gameplay is great, but the story is even sillier and more childish than IX's. The difference? IX knew how silly it was, didn't take itself seriously, and was much more enjoyable as a result.


    Still love 8 though.

    I despised this game. The forced love story, the lack of transition with the story, the annoying "emoness " of Squall and the leveling system that was broken by the junction system. With that all said, the presentation was absolutely phenomenal.
