I was playing the arcade mode of Call of Jarez Gunslinger which is a fun little diversion but it struck me that the mode could easily be improved with a little thought & minor changes to the format.
It's a timed mode where you choose a class from three then do a run through a level you get score multipliers & it all tallys up to a leaderboard online pretty standard stuff, my problem with it is that it does not record a score separately for each class, so if you record a good score using pistols for instance, then do it again using the rifle only the best score out of the two matters, but if they had separated the classes so that it was a separate leaderboard for each class the mode would be a lot more competitive with only a slight change to the layout.
It's not game breaking the way it is but it's a missed opportunity to make a better game! this started me thinking how many other games could have been improved by simple addition or even taking something out?
