This is the most pointless video ever. I hope they're not using this to grab new attention.
Guy with video camera crosses street and gets on bus. Sees angry militia pushing woman. Sees blonde in back of bus. Bus takes a tour of Shanghai, explosion causes chaos. Blonde from bus gets hit by another bus. Cameo appearance by our heroes across a street in the beginning without their Fistbump Deathmasks.
This is clearly aimed at us video game nerds, but I want to see more action.
Damn, this sounds an awful lot like a more accurate remake of the original Castle Wolfenstein on the C64. The one where you had to find the right ID cards to fool the guards whenever they spotted you.
I feel bad for the poor little game. It wants to run free with the other games, but is trapped in the plastic bubble. So sad. :(
While we're kicking the dog, here's a video of a poor kid obeying his bastard of an older brother (for some reason). Let's ignore the fact that he's clearly too young to play Halo.
@Andrew Wyatt: Part 3 is funnier he buys a broken xbox matching his brother and he smashes it the kids crys xD and then he shows him that it wasnt his 360!
I just finish games, I really like a lot.
In some of them I go and collect achievements/trohies, that are either on my way, fun or a realistic challenge.
Curse those "Play for six months straight and get 100.000 kills"-achievements like in Gears 2.
A few very special games are worth to complete 100%.
I think the Uncharted-games do a perfectly fair job to get a platinum-trophy:
from 1-to-100% challenging in an entertaining way.
I admit, Achievements have kept me playing games much longer than I would have otherwise. That's not always a bad thing though. I'm not the kind of person that will regularly replay a game more than once, but sometimes an achievement will give me that little extra incentive to do so. But if a game isn't fun, I don't play it. I refuse to ever grind for an achievement (short of maybe just leaving the console on unattended for those "play for 50 hours" kind of things). To me, grinding goes against the entire nature of gaming: to have fun. It's the same reason I don't play a lot of RPGs.
@Benguin: I personally only shoot for Achievements that strike me as being pretty fun, though I have grinded for one before (that one being Dead Rising's Zombie Genocider. So long to an entire Saturday). Like, there's an achievement for killing 1000 zombies with your bare hands in Dead Rising, or the 100 Explosions in a Minute achievement in Crackdown. That kind of stuff will convince me to raise some Gamerscore.
@LongDaysPleasantNights: Oh, thanks for bringing up Dead Rising. I guess there was an achievement I did grind for. But doing so made the REST of the game more fun, so I consider myself justified.
I wonder if some of those rough edges could have been ironed out by the developers if they hadn't received pink slips in their stockings this Christmas? Sounds like a pretty awesome game with some faults, and it's kind of sad to see we aren't going to get the continuation it sounds like it sets up for.
If I've loved every Dynasty Warriors (and the total money sinks of the expansions), would i like this? It was a favorite co-op game of a friend and mine back home, and it'd be great to do so cross country. It just looks pretty...different I guess. Has the roster improved since six at all? Strike Force: Empires maybe? Empires was awesome, no matter what number game.
I've got a buddy with a gamefly subscription, soley for getting achievements. Occassionally he tries to drag me into boosting for him. More often then not on some shitty game I'm terribly uninterested in. After about two years of telling him no, I think he's FINALLY starting to get the idea I don't two shits about achievements.
I was hoping for this to be a great game and have Pandemic exit the building with something shiny. Instead from this review it feels like they got cut off at the knees before achieving their goal.

Also, does anyone else find Co-Op Team extremely redundant?

Anticipation.
Action.
Comedy.
Failed Prison Escapes.
Desperation.
Acceptance of fate.
Romance. . . well, maybe not romance.
Still, that's more plot than your average Hollywood blockbuster.

Although no doubt a lot of people will be expecting a second coming.

Got to leave something for the sequel.
In a world, where ventilation holes don't exist, one disc makes a desperate attempt for freedom. . .

And is their last name seriously "Puddin"? It can't be...

You speak the truth.

I belive his name is Jamie Hagan so i have no idea why he's got "Puddin" on his shirt.

To play hundreds of shitty games for their achievements to hit some arbitrarily high number?
That sounds like torture to me.

So yea, it is torture and all for a silly number.
