Really? sure it feels a little more loose like those older cods but i feel more modern influences than anything pre Cod4.
I disagree. It feels like COD in terms of its just an FPS but the gunplay feels completely different. Then, Gunfight feels like Siege or CS and the big modes feel like modern-era BF games. I could have loaded this beta up with a different title and not known it was a CoD game.
Yes. The point of the article is that basically if the new studios can deliver great games on a regular basis, Xbox has the full package.
I'm not sure this is the answer. I think core gameplay in Gears is almost perfect for what it is. They did a few bits to do with movement and verticality in Judgment and it didn't work out so well.
Yup. I know they've gone on record to say they wanted to play it safe with 4 and will now take more risks so, we shall see if the proof is in the pudding.
I agree with the MOH and BF influences, but that's kind of the problem. I appreciate the change for CoD, but it doesn't really feel like it has its own identity to me.
