It's fun, but it washes over quickly when you're finished with story. I honestly don't care for the online since you need to earn everything, I'd prefer just turning the ******* thing on and playing it rather than be stuck with a pistol until you level up.
 
So it appears that IGN is going to award either TLOU or GTA5 GOTY. You guys think TLOU is going to take it? I haven't played either.
 
I found in the beginning that the pacing was off and it was moving a little too fast since the chapters were short, it gets much much better the further you're into it.

Were all in agreement that Homeless was one of the best chapters in the game, I almost got choked up with the one scene in it.

I haven't finished the game yet but Homeless is the standout for me so far.
 
I liked how each and every chapter was so unique and how there was always something interesting going on. I liked how memorable the game was.
 
After having read IGN' s review I imagine this conversation going on in the company:

Stan: "Okay, so we need someone to play and review QD' s new game Beyond by the time the game ships. So who do we have..."

*sees Lucy*

Stan: "Hey Lucy, are you down for reviewing Beyond?"

Lucy: "I don't know Stan, I really didn't like the gameplay of Heavy Rain,...Shouldn't you get someone else to do it?"

Stan : "Well, the problem is that everybody else has their plates full with other games at the moment and no one else will be able to finish the game in time to post the review when the game comes out on the 8th"

Lucy: "Well, like I said, I don't really appreciate these types of games, so... you still want me to do it?"

Stan: "Not much of a choice I'm afraid."

Lucy: "Ugh,....okay I'll do it,....for you Stan"

Stan: "Thanks doll!"

Played a fair amount so far. So far I’m really liking the game. Only thing is, can you die in this game? I have actually been trying to.
 
RDR was such a new feel to sandbox games, I think R* should stick to new IPs outside of GTA.

I agree 100 percent with you actually. Gtav is very overrated and probaly deserved a 9.5 at the highest. Its only fun with friends online.
 
I almost got choked up with the one scene in it.

Are you talking about:

When you try to jump to your death when she wants to give up or a different scene?

I actually didn't see that scene my first playthrough as I choose for her to step back.

Also I just rewatched the trailer and I never saw her:
Put the gun up to her head.

Intresting and now I'm wondering what I would need to do differently to cause that. Can you tell me if you saw her do that without telling me how or where?

I replayed the last chapter and got the beyond ending. Okay, I'm man enough to admit I seriously choked up when:
She wrote "Your princess is still here" on Cole's computer...

Yeah that actually affected me and hit me hard...

They'll give it to GTA strictly based on the title. GTA was a massive letdown for me, all the people that bash Saint's Row are *** hole GTA fanboys. I regret even buying my copy since I've not played it in over a week. San Andreas was the greatest of all GTAs and every game following keeps chopping all the extras that were in it.

TLOU won't win because it's not a game a typical hoodrat would be interested in unless it's shooting cops.

If you really want to know

There is an ending choice where Jodie can die.

hmm, I guess GTAV, but just to make the masses happy. A billion dollar in sales = a lot of happy IGN fanboys

Sales don't mean anything. If GOTY awards were legit they would pick quality of quantity sold.

I honestly think it doesn't even break an 8/10.

I was talking about the scene with
Stan talking with his wife.

I didn't see that in the Beyond ending that she
writes on Cole's computer because I wanted to see if you can kill Cole which you can. Also I loved in Ryan's ending that Aiden is still with Jodie.

Finally gave the demo a go today... love the graphics, game play and story seems interesting.

But the motion controls, can't do them because of my condition :( wish they gave us the option to just use buttons.

Guess I'll just watch game play on Youtube, blah.
 
This game is so polarizing! I think I'll wait till someone sells me a Director's Edition at a good price.
