Stu_The_Villan Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Seems ive been reading different reviews to you Chindie. Ive heard the AI is amongst the best seen in this sort of stealth type game and also that the voice acting is top notch. Guess the only real way of finding out is playing it for yourself. Which brings me onto my next point... ...the missus has just rang me at work to say this has just come through the letterbox. Luvvly Jubbly.

Stu_The_Villan Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 This game is amazing. I just cant put it down at the minute. Id say ive spent a good 15 hours on it so far and it feels like i havent even touched the surface. The story is great, but the setting is even better. The world the game takes place in is just so lifelike and plausible. The graphics are also top notch. The weakest part of the game is probably the gunplay but the game is so much fun just sneaking around trying not to get spotted. The satisfaction is emmense when it comes off. Bit of a ramble i know. Brigga, The best way i can describe it is a cross between mass effect and splinter cell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Was going to wait to pick this up, but as the missus is out all evening on a spa day with a friend, I thought I'd indulge. 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briggaman Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Picked this up today, which I hadn't planned on doing. Too tempting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted August 26, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted August 26, 2011 Held off myself. There's bigger titles coming that interest me more - I'll either borrow it or buy when it comes on the preowned market at a decent price. Had a fantastic cock up with preorders on this - the Augmented edition is a preorder only item for us at the moment, meaning we only get the copies that people had preordered... we had 20 preorders. We got given 18 copies. We're all now praying a number of those don't come asking for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted August 26, 2011 Author Share Posted August 26, 2011 Got the augmented edition. The packaging and design is stunning. Been playing for an hour and a half and its stunning. The soundtrack is stunning. In a word, so far it is truly stunning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted August 26, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted August 26, 2011 I think at our place it's 2 days... but I'm also sure that some of the preorders for the Augmented edition were deposits. We were worried that over the weekend people are gonna come for their copies and we ain't gonna have them all. Thankfully one of those preorders is mine while we were bumping up our preorder figures :oops: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phumfeinz Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Good game but the boss fights are dog shit and kinda ruin it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briggaman Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Only just started yesterday so I haven't had a boss fight yet. I am finding the lack of ammo a bit of a pain the backside though. Can't really run and gun with full effect if the ammo runs dry. Not too fond of the shooting either. I prefer the more noob version of automatic targetting, which isn't available in this. Or is it? Other than that it seems very good thus far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I thought that after the 1st mission when they told me you get more xp if you don't get detected during the mission, safe to say I killed everyone and saved no one I'm also very shit at hacking I just don't get it at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu_The_Villan Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Ok so im quite far into this now. Just got through hengsha and into the next area and so far ive only had one boss fight. How long is this game?! Not complaining but the game just feels huge. Also, i love the hacking mini game. I know what you mean, at first its like 'wtf is going on here?!' but when you get your head round it its actually very good. The stealth hacking aug is pretty much essential for harder hacks though. Allows you to capture most low rated nodes (and some higher ones) undetected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designer1 Posted August 27, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted August 27, 2011 Picked this up today. If its a patch on the first two it will be a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
