TOTW: Turning Tail


Bizzo - Posted on 17 December 2009

This is not a video. Then again, it is absolute Truth.

 

MW2 is exactly as addictive and fun as they say. It is also frustrating as fuck when you try to play with people who have all the upgrades.

I say again, all the upgrades. Because they do a good job of creating balance until that point. Knives are goofy, but you get shot trying as often as you stab bitches. There are no health upgrades, so even the most basic gun can kill the most advanced player, if you shoot straight. Upgrades are an advantage. That is all.

Until you get two shotguns.

I have been playing videogames since I could read. My brother and I pwned each other 15 years early, using the AWDX keys on a green and black build of Spacewar. I spit and curse blue turtle shells. I know to hoard the Spreader.

Not since fucking Oddjob has anything in a popular title been so cheap. It's damn near a game breaker. Just ... just watch.

(I couldn't find a way to simulate how annoying this is, until the Will Smith cut)

It's a joke. It's like one team playing volleyball is allowed to use huge tennis rackets. From Levels 1-49 (or whatever), this game is about precision shooting, stealth and surprise. From that point on, when you unlock this, it's about running around the map and pressing your Everything On My Screen Dies button.

I do not believe they missed this in play testing. I believe they are mocking us.
