Re: Terminator: Salvation - The Game. Looks Good!!

Well I just beat it....took about 4 hours or so. few levels drag on forever, and then some end in like 10 minutes...terrible pacing. I found a grenade launcher and a different type of machine gun, bringing the weapon total to 6! Sadly, you fight the same 4 enemies the ENTIRE game

In short, rent it for an easy 1000/1000 achievement points but DO NOT BUY!!!!

Wow. Does it at least look and play well?? Is there any potential with the game engine?

Considering it's still kind of glitchy, I'd hate to see what it would've been like had it come out a year ago.

Sucks about the Terminator game though - at least that saves me $60 to spend on Bionic Commando, that is, if it doesn't suck.

Well still no reviews out there even the day before the offical release. Sorry but that doesn't add up especially if it was good then reviews would've been out way before along with pre-orders. They did come out with another trailer (seems like the 50th I think)

I'm going with a gut feeling and the insight od discoutu1337 on this and make a prediction of ...6.8 of 10

It's terrible. It tries to be Gears of War with a cover system to take out enemies but there is absolutely no substance to the game. It gets old after about the first 2 levels or so. There's a few rail sequences where you man the gun of a vehicle but other than those all the levels are pretty much the same. Rent it if you must get a Terminator video game fix, but do not spend $60 on this!

Amazon is about to ship my copy, but I only paid $45 for it, so hopefully I feel its worth it.

Had a feeling something wasn't right when there wasn't even one single review couple of days before release. But less than 4 hrs is pretty damn short, and they even said some missions take about 10 minutes.

Was actually thinking of picking this up today but guess i will pass.

Well when you see a game out on it's first day at Amazon for $49 instead of $59 that may say something.

Update - 05/20

YIKES and OUCH!!!!!......Gamespot gave it ....5.0 with users at 6.2

Still nothing at Teamxbox. I gues they're playing it a few time to find at least something positve about it.
