My point was this: If graphics really are the game's #1 stumbling point, then I don't have to worry, since I'm not a graphics nut.  In fact, less intense graphics means it will run more smoothly on my junky laptop.


That's some god awful reasoning.  You should want the best possible graphics even if it doesn't run as smoothly.  Mainly because you will get a better pc but the game in of itself won't improve.

I dont understand why so many seem to have an issue with the look of the game.  Pointing at graphics and resolution.  I played the PC demo and it looked great to me.

Well as a fellow german countryman I support him making fun of people who call german 'barbaric'. Especially those with italian sounding names.

But I am not German.

You only get to break review embargo if you're going to tell people it's a great game.  Reviews are worthless,  pre-launch reviews are external PR pieces.

The problem here is that you are already convinced ME3 will suck, so I shouldn't listen to a damn thing you say, either.

its not awful. to me in order for a game to succeed is by gameplay NOT graphics.


im on xbox 360 and the game looked fine to me even if it was just the demo.


graphics arent always the number 1 selling point believe it or not

But they didn't break any review embargo. It's a PC mag giving a non-final score to a PS3 version of a game they'll review on the future.

I'm not happy at this 15-20 hours main quest playtime hope that was just the reviewer!
because me1 is usually takes 30 hours no sidequests and Me2 normally takes me 35 hours no sidequests.


That doesn't make any sense. the first time I played me1 back in 2007 I got through the story in 20 hours and was sad that it was so short. The second time i played with side quests it took me 35 hours. And ME2 takes me 22 hours without side quests. I have no idea what you are doing that is taking so long.

IGN and Game Informer will be the first to review the game, sure. But once the embargo ends. In the meantime, IGN will be posting updates on their review progress.

We're not talking about graphics being more important than gameplay.  What he's saying is that he's happy that the graphics suck just so it runs faster.  That's god awful reasoning.

I am not sure. As far as I know, reviews tend to be released as early as 1 or 2 days before the release of the game.

Different teams work on different things.  The animators and script writers don't work on the graphics(except maybe bug testing) and vice-versa for the most part.  There's very few cases where you sacrifice graphics for gameplay and that's usually because of technical restrictions rather than time restrictions.

"-The „Role-Play“ mode of the game (In contrast to „Action“ and „Story“) feels very much like ME1"

I'm crying inside...with joy

Graphics aren't an important element to me. Story and gameplay are, so if graphical corner cutting gets me extra dialogue and quests, then good. Of course, if all it does is get me extra MP stuff, then bad.

And what exactly did he make up? The review? That's a 6 letter word, not a 4 letter one.

Only mission I can recall where you had to actually make your way to a compound was Zaeed's loyalty mission.  Other than that it was like getting dropped off at the door before the driver went to park the car.  The scenes where you would hear an announcement that a shuttle just landed at the back entrance would always make me laugh.

Again your talking about something that was done with a vehicle. The only difference is now we have a rather stealthy shuttle to bring the crew in.

Did these places have no scanners, radar, security of any kind?  And I found no quests in ME2 inventive.  Just gey dropped off, run through the linear area and get literally get picked back up at the end.

The Shuttle actually has stealth systems.

:lol: It's funny how hard Bioware works on the codex and nobody listens/reads them. In the Codex it says the Kodiak has a stealth-system built onboard alongside several other features which allow it to move undetected in enemy territory. Similar to the Normandy in fact. I can't quote it from the top of my head, but I recommend checking it out.


People have eyes.  I don't care what kind of stealth system you have.  You're not going to make it literally to the back door of a base, a lot of times in broad daylight.


The Normandy could have done that on Virmire. It was simply too big and it was fighting against AI AA guns.
