    In defence of COD, I actually thought number 4 had some pretty well constructed moments...

    Few and far between though

    4 Was alright, I actually thought it was somewhat saddening to see Gaz go, but a lot of the game felt like I was playing those side-missions in games instead of an actual story.

    I actually liked the story of Black Ops 2. The general basis was used before, but it was good.

    I'm not gonna slate people for liking the story- COD's isn't generally all that bad, especially within the FPS genre, I dislike the series mainly because it avoids any kind of expansion.. and its far, FAR too short on single player...

    Something I really wish for some day is an FPS that is story driven- doesn't need to not be on rails, just have a story that really drives your actions and gives you some twists.

    True, it's short and as linear as a Westboro Baptist member's sexuality, but I mainly just enjoy the gameplay aspects of it.

    Also, Borderlands is a bit like that. Not really any significant choices though(Or much any choices except for your character build). But the story can really be interesting and hilarious after a bit of playing. I heard Bungie's new game "Destiny" might be the long-awaited FPS RPG, so hopefully it will have actual choices in it that affect story.

    And have you ever played Dragon Age? That game will make you regret every single decision you make, because it remembers every single decision you make. SOOOO much is changed just by the decisions you make.

    one could argue that in COD your not ment to have full grips on the stpry as your average soldier is only told "enemy is there, plz kill him"

    BF's got the best story of all, "kill mofo's, win the round", simple but beautiful.

    As for Reviews, gave up paying attention to them ages ago, firstly most reviewers are piad off to say good things, then there's the obsession with negativity, a bad review is going to get more press\hype than a good one(Simon Cowell syndrome i call it). Lastly Yahtzee from Zero puncuation is the only review that matters.

    I think he actually does have some good points in regards to how scripted the game can be, though not so much in regards to gameplay. I suppose part of the issue is that score, 7.5. Using my own personal scoring that would be fine. But the issue is that the standard is everything is a 8-9.5, even the most **** games are based off of hype alone. So it sort of seems insulting when something as poorly designed as Assassin's Creed 3 gets a higher score. I think it wouldn't come off as bad if people were a lot more realistic about the scores they give games.

    After all, it doesn't make sense that above average is the average.

    Guys, i mean really
    This guy gave a good score to Metro Last Light, 7.5/10 isn't the end of the world.
    I only dislike him for saying that CoD is more polished than Metro since CoD only repacks games in the same boring way.

    Metro 2033 in my opinion was kinda linear, but the survival and stealth were really good, I still remember me dying at the communist camps because I alerted a guard.

    Metro Last Light I dunno, didn't play yet, but he's kinda right, in Metro 2033 I had to wait for NPC's to hold my hand and carry me across the level, luckily there were only few of them.

    If I had to rate Metro 2033 I'd give it a 7.9/10

    Meh I've seen worst. I can't really put my opinion in since I've never played any Metro game so I don't know if he makes good points or not. But really I'll just wait for Angryjoe's review I guess and see what he says. Angryjoe is the only reviewer I listen to anymore really because I agree with majority of his reviews, not all but majority of them.

    Metro LL is a great game. Best FPS I've played in years. I don't have a problem with the moron reviewers score. To each their own as they say. However he is dead wrong about the graphics being better on 2033...then again I play them both on PC so maybe it is worse on consoles. There also is quite a bit of following NPCs but not as much as he makes it seem. You spend a lot of time traversing the dark tunnels alone.

    I loved the story and the combat. There is also more than one stealth route in almost every area. Maybe he just couldn't figure them out. The game is pretty linear. I wish it were less so but it works with the game.

    I can respect that someone doesn't like a game that I do. At least know what you're talking about if you're going to make a review though..
