Game content is disappointing

I gave up on this content as there was nothing of substance really added to the game that made my experience more enjoyable. Just new ways for farmers to ruin the game experience.

Compared to past titles this game falls seriously short. Most of my favorite characters have been stripped from the game and transformed into paid DLC or left out completely (other than cutscenes).

Gone are they days where playing a game rewards you with unlockables to extend your enjoyment, now you must pay.

Story Mode focuses on Johny Cage as if anyone ever cared about this lame character.

I paid less than half price for the standard edition and I still feel ripped off. We cannot allow micro transactions to infest every game title.

This game was kind of a let down.  It's short in length and their idea of playing the same parts over and over with different damage modifiers is not my idea of fun.  I followed this game since it was first announced and I guess I expected something completely different.

The game looks next-gen but the gameplay is from 2 gens ago.  Slow and clunky FPS.  I was bored after 2 hours of gameplay, traded in for a second DS4

Beautiful graphics but game play is disappointing.  A huge step back from the two previous games.  I regret preordering it but very glad I did not buy the season pass

Lack of game modes. Short, and cheesy story mode. Entrances are 15 second cutscenes. The gameplay itself isn't terrible, but after you finish the story mode the game has little to no replay value. A huge disappointment for how many years theyve been working on it. Save your money, rent it if you have to, don't buy it.

I regret buying this game.  Overall the game feels bloated and thrown together.  Any action that requires disk interaction - running the game, saving/loading, transitioning to a new level - takes a long time and locks down the game.  Every time I run the game it checks for a patch from Steam, checks to see that the Microsoft libraries are loaded, just a lot of background crap loaded into this game.  I also had to update my video drivers - you'd think the game would check your driver version and notify you to update if it's necessary.

Beyond the technical issues there are too many puzzles and animated sequences breaking up the shooting action for me - opening drawers to find a key, picking a lock to open a window, etc..  If you like puzzles then it won't be a problem for you.

The weapon selection is clunky, the mouse wheel opens a selection overlay on the screen, which again slows down the action.  You can't just run over health, ammo, etc. to collect them, you have to point your cross hairs at each item and hit an action button to collect it, so you're looking "down" all the time, which gets very tedious.

And as a bonus, every time you run the game you have to watch lengthy animated graphics for three production companies and a legal notice - can't escape out of it.  There's a line of code you can add to the shortcut (+com_skipIntroVideo 1) to skip them, but why force users to do that?  I can understand locking the intro graphics/disclaimer the first time the game is run but requiring people to watch it every time shows a lack of respect for their customers.

If you're looking for a MMO in first person shooter form, this isn't it. Even though the game does something new, it doesn't really feel so. With the bland content and grinding progression, there isn't much here. Weapon models all look the same, character personalization (both stats and armor) isn't very in depth and there isn't much variation to make your character feel like "your character." Because of this, the game lacks to come together. The PVP mode is weak and so weapon based that it's almost unplayable unless you are able to play enough to progress in end content. I haven't actually played any end content due to losing interest quickly after launch. Destiny promised something new, and failed to deliver. That being said, if you enjoy grinding and have a good group of friends to play with, you *MIGHT* enjoy it.

Gunplay is good, game is ridiculously short and has no story. Very repetitive, playing the same 3 or 4 levels to grind to get better gear just to keep grinding, got about 15 hours into it and got to level 21, not really feeling it, disapointed.

I have been a fan of GG for a long while and was exicted when I heard that the next game would be an action game, but sadly it falls short of my expectations. Don't get me wrong the game is not terrible it just gets repetitive. Most of the missons involve a  kind of "capture the base" where you and your enemy battle for control over "ghosts" and then once you've captured all the ghosts you must destroy the enemys "masterghost" which is their base. One thing that disappointed me was the lack of characters, the only ones from the original game series are Sol Badguy and Ky (but Ky is nonplayable) while the rest are newcomers. Also in the game are these things you can summon on the battlefield called "servents" which fight along side you, it kinda reminded me of Chaos Legion for PS2. Overall its a decent game if you're a fan of Guilty Gear if not you might want to look elsewere.

I had high hopes for this game after the great ones like Exile URU, and Revelations. However this was not the case,

First: The Audio SUCKED so bad, you might as well stick your head in a toilet flush and hope you enjoy it.

Second: The biggest let down was the increadable lack of exploration and lengh in each level/age. The associated puzzles were so weak unlike the complex levels in URU and RIVEN.

Third: The realizm was not there, The characters were well intigrated in past games but in the final game they used all digital! Didn't have that real life feel.

Over all I am a Dissapointed Myst Lover. If you purchase this don't spend to much. It just lacks all the Length and Dificulty associeated with past games like Revelations/Riven.

OH YAH THERE ARE NOT ANY FUN RIDES AND A LACK OF BUTTONS TO PUSH, BORRING!

The main story missions were the best part of the game even though there is only like 8 of them with terrible bosses. The side missions and side activities are repetitive and boring. The gun play is nice but customization is lacking. Abilities are decent but leaves more to be desired. The dark zone pvp area is a joke. There is no incentive to go rogue at all. Didn't live up to the hype.

I really want to shower this game with praise, since I've been a fan of Ratchet & Clank since the beginning.  Sadly, except for the updated visuals, this game felt flat and uninspired.

First, the good points.  As others have said, it looks beautiful.  It has the polish you'd expect in a modern game, and I personally loved seeing old favorites redone in gorgeous new colors, lighting, and detail.  The colors are especially vibrant, sometimes almost over-saturated.

Insomniac has polished Ratchet's movements to perfection.  His pace and the ability to turn him exactly the amount you want are excellent, so you're not always taking an extra step and stumbling off ledges because your foot went one pixel past the touchpoint.

OMG, I'm so glad the hoverboard races have been trimmed to three levels, bronze, silver, and gold, and are actually winnable for once.  Also, controlling your ship during the few flying parts is much improved.

I like this system for weapons upgrades.

That's it.  Here, then, are the disappointments that rob this game of its potential.

Difficulty vs. weapons seems unbalanced, especially in challenge mode.  There is usually a good balance between enemies and firepower in R&C games, but this one makes you feel underpowered for most of the game.  The available weapons are generally weak, even when upgraded, and there's little with good range.  You also get mobbed a lot more than in the past, which only makes the inadequate weapons more obvious.  It's nearly impossible to go any length of time without taking a long-range hit from some enemy, which kills the bolt multiplier in challenge mode, making it harder to earn bolts for mega weapons.

There's none of the character building from the game this is supposed to essentially replace.  Ratchet started out a bit selfish and was in it for his own gain, which was understandable given his fend-for-yourself, orphaned upbringing.  He then grew to be a hero as the game progressed.  Here, the whole galactic rangers storyline makes him an instant hero, so there's no appreciation for him becoming a better person.

This is the first R&C game where I can remember there being many visual glitches, like crates vanishing into thin air until you move the camera.

The trespasser mini-games to open doors are boring and stop the game dead in it's tracks.  I thought I might be able to go through the game without using the cheat until I spent an entire 1/2 hour trying to get one door open.  It was necessary to continue to the final section, so I had to use the built-in cheat option and give up the bolts/trophy.

It really should have been funnier.  The humor just wasn't up to R&C standards.  There were smiles, a chuckle or two, and Clank's robot helpers are insanely, giggle-inducingly cute, but every other R&C game is funnier.

The cut scenes seem edited together from something else, perhaps the movie, because most of the time Ratchet's expression had nothing to do with the conversation.

I'd like to re-state my disappointment with the balance of truly effective weapons and the swarms of enemies that never miss from a mile away.  Also, in challenge mode, each floating brain monster takes your entire arsenal to kill.

So, all in all, I'm very disappointed.  They did a fantastic job with the game mechanics and visuals, but the writing and weapons are limp.  Here's hoping the next R&C game is their Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan.

I'm a big FPS fan. I played through all the BIG FPS games in recent years. But so far Medal of Honor is the only game that I would call "a disappointment".

Graphics: Not good. It feels like this game could "use more time in the oven". The rough edges of graphics makes you wonder if this game was made few years back.

Gameplay: Nothing exciting. If you have MW2 or Blackops and you enjoyed them, then you will be disappointed in this game. The gun sound effect, the bullet impact. They just don't feel real. I hate to compare every FPS to COD series and I believe every game has its merits but this game probably won't provide the satisfaction you are looking for.

I haven't had multiplayer experience but judging by my solo campaign I think my journey in Medal of Honor will stop right here.

My suggestion: Don't bother buying a new game. Get a used one for 10+ dollars. It's only worth that much.

The level system is stellar, the graphics are great, and the gameplay mechanics themselves are excellent. This game has the POTENTIAL to sink WoW and any other MMORPG out there. (Except for probably Destiny, but that's not out yet) However, the killer is a severe lack of consistent content. Aside from the campaign "dungeons" there's really nothing outside of Fractals to hold on to you after level cap. Personally, I do not like the fractals very much, and it's frustrating having to pug everything, including your final story mission. Lame. The "Living Story" the developers go on about is nothing to MMO's in general, WoW has been doing the same thing since forever, but there's A LOT more to do during and after dinging 90 in WoW than GW2. It's a solid buy at first, but with no new areas, nothing new to explore, and just more of the same instances over and over and over again, I'm out. See ya when there's an expansion.

I was really excited about this game, I loved the previous versions of this game, and was expecting to really enjoy this game as well.  Sadly, I have been disappointed so far.  As far as my progress through the game, I am throught 3 of the campaign modes, with firsts in all of the races, so I have a number of hours in and have spent a good deal of time playing it.

The good:

The racing is as fun as always, it's challenging, entertaining, varied enough to not get boring.  The AI difficulty ramps well, and towards the end of the 'story' mode it's definitely a challenge to win the races.  The hardcore modes are really tough, and will provide a great amount of challenge even to the most seasoned racer.  The graphics are good, the controls feel right, and I did not have any issues with the way the actual game played.  The extra features are ok, customization looks pretty decent, but no PSN access yet so I cannot try the online unlocks.

The bad:

The story is just downright terrible.  Previous versions of this game did not even bother with much of a story, why bother now?  I watched all the cartoon cutscences, and I can honestly say that the game would be 100% better without them.  I would have rather had more races than these silly things to watch.  Whoever came up with the idea to add a story should probably be fired, it's that bad.

The explosions/chaos is almost too much at times, it's enjoyable to a certain extent, but there are times when I was thinking to myself "ok, I just want this to stop now".  The races are great, but at times it's a little too over the top.  I don't need to feel like I am in the movie 2012.  That movie was terribad, and at times, it feels like I am running from one disaster after another in this game, not what I had in mind.

Overall:

The racing is still solid.  The story is downright garbage, this is not Assassin's Creed 2 or Uncharted 2, so don't expect to enjoy the cutscenes.  If you like smash'em up racers, this is a game you will still enjoy.  If you are prone to headaches from screen shakes and a lot of movement, skip this, it will likely cause you to have a seizure (for real, it's that crazy at times).  Overall, it's probably the worst of the series, so don't feel bad if you skip it.

Poor graphics, long install times, repetitive gameplay, and hollow story. Really disappointed in this title from Bungie. This game feels like a beta.
