Its well worth a sub £10 price point.

illuz · 3 Jan 2013 at 14:10

Definitely worth it. I think it's the only game I finished last year apart from BF3.

Kainz · 3 Jan 2013 at 14:34

I know how you feel. The cutscenes are so frequent that it is hard to settle into the game, and some of them suddenly fast forward a couple of days and plonk you in a totally different location.

I am forcing myself to go on just to see the final outcome but it is so tedious in doing so. The enemies never stop coming.

Fail.

I know this is like an ultra late reply but for me it would not let me skip cutscenes despite having the game on an ssd :S. I really loved the game on the first complete mind ^^

Ok thanks guys will get it, is it worth getting the prequals too?

platypus · 3 Jan 2013 at 19:26

Haven't played 3, but MP 1 and 2 are excellent.

LoopyOrc · 3 Jan 2013 at 19:29

Defo worth it, I enjoyed every moment of the single player campaign.

That's the idea.

Get the first two, but watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbugI_ZraFY as that is most of the game

Im also considering buying it since I haven't played the series, is the single player and multiplayer fun and any dlc that are worth getting too?
would appreciate any opinions on it.
Thanks

defo worth it at that price, great story which doesn't involve terrorists which has been done to death!!

shankly1985 · 3 Jan 2013 at 22:16

For the Single Player yes Defo one of the best SP games I have played. If you thinking about MP tho forget it lol

L33 · 3 Jan 2013 at 22:24

I thoroughly enjoyed the SP, enough for me to replay it and that doesn't happen too often! The only thing that annoyed me was the 'interference' effect that litters cutscenes etc, as Kainz mentioned above.
Haven't even tried the MP. Shame all of the DLC is MP maps etc, would have bought it all if it was SP story or missions.

MofoKilla · 4 Jan 2013 at 00:27

for £7 well worth it.

sirdigga · 4 Jan 2013 at 04:00

Great game, played it once through, played a bit of multiplayer, aint touched it since, I got it when it came out though.

Sin_Chase · 4 Jan 2013 at 07:28

Well worth it.

noway would i buy this on pc, 30GB+

would take at least half a week to download at my full speed.

And?

Carl-Brit · 4 Jan 2013 at 08:41

You get a lot of game for the money and the graphics are one of the best for a 3rd person imo

My point was if you're on a poverty stricken internet line, you'd do well to avoid this game. Purely based on size alone.

If you are on a bad connection (200-300kb/s) and you CAN afford to keep your pc running for 10+ hours a day as you download the thing - then by reading the other users comments this game appears to be well worth it.

Antony101 · 4 Jan 2013 at 09:27

Avoid, the game is bloody awful. You spend most of it watching unskippable cutscenes which are also still in the Arcade game-mode.

It's also close to 40GB in size.

MBennett · 4 Jan 2013 at 09:39

Completed this game 3 times, cannot say that for any other game I can think of in recent years.

The cutscenes are annoying but the game is great all the same. There is just something really hypnotic about the rag dolls and physics destruction!
