Yeah I wasted my time and listened to the entire thing. I even wrote a summary here for those that didn't want to sit through it.

And when he came on here I asked him about the only negative point he brought up which was animations. And he kind of glossed over it saying that it was just a little quirky.

And when I mentioned that the commentary had dead air, he said the commentary was the best part of the game.

Does that sound like a 2.5/5 to you?

I don't care if he played it more to do his review. Most people can tell what a game is about from jumpstreet.

There's nothing wrong with that. If someone buys the game, then its on them, cause the writing was all the wall.

There are numerous games, where companies build better preview builds than the actual builds just to get a good write up. at least they showed what they really had. Not to mention, the devs know how to hide their weakness. I mean, everyone seen how OG plays, when it plays, it mimic sim cause he knows how to hide the more obvious weaknesses
Who said he needed to promote the game?

He was brought in for feedback. Feedback for a game that they weren't giving access to anyone.

And you can't hide animations man. I don't care if he was playing next to Kyrie. Kyrie don't crossover like that and he should say it.

You can hide sliders. You can't hide the basic movement and feel of a game.

Please don't come with the build argument man. Seriously.

he wasn't brought in for feedback..That's why they allowed him to preview the game. It was a barebones interview design to let ea answer questions in a controlled environment.

Now go back to the thread, see the group of people throwing up that red flag, and then note the backlash...

Buzz beat me to it, but yeah. Myself and a few others were saying this stuff all along with the numerous red flags, but getting the "you just hate Live" "play it for yourself" "this is a new dev team" brigade at every single red flag.

Id say, near awful, playable at times, but not very fun. 4.0 would be generous for me
