Ah, yeah, figures. Prototype also emphasized fancy animations over tight controls and I couldn't stand it with M/KB. It was a slightly more tolerable with a gamepad because analog sticks aren't very quick or precise to begin with.
Developers really need to focus on functionality over style. Fancy player animations make for good trailers, sure, but not so great for actually playing the game. |

It was painful and clearly designed for the inherently laggy analog stick controls of gamepads. I haven't played RDR yet but I assume it suffers from the same issue.
You're wrong about how it was designed. I haven't played much GTA4, but I assume you mean the tank-like controls, and RDR had it. Marston literally felt like a tank. Sometimes when you were trying to line up on a ladder or even a staircase you couldn't do it quickly. You'd tap to the side and take a huge step, so you'd tap back to correct and overshoot the opposite way, so you'd walk backwards and turn and still miss it.
It worked poorly on a controller, so it wasn't designed for that. I think it's just all based around the animation, which is the issue. |

Euphoria physics is just too awesome.
I like Euphoria when it's applied to NPCs. I don't like it when it's applied to the player. GTA4 had incredibly slow and unresponsive controls. It was painful and clearly designed for the inherently laggy analog stick controls of gamepads. I haven't played RDR yet but I assume it suffers from the same issue. |

I played the 360 version for about 10-15 minutes before tossing it. Frame rate dives and it looked like shit...

| Saints Row 2 was a fantastic game but had a truly godawful PC port. The recently well ported THQ title Darksiders gives me hope though. |

| The second was marvelous fun co-op, played through the entire game with a friend. The multiplayer versus modes left a bit to be desired however. |

Either you quickly lose everything, which is lame, or you start with normal "everything" and it goes nuts from there.
Remember, you were basically fighting a private army at the end of Saint's Row 2.
God I loved that game. The humor was a bit too try-hard in the first, outside of Gat, but in the second the parody was much, much more obvious, and at the same time the plot was pretty decent and I enjoyed the cut scenes. Especially those with Gat. Then again I liked the plotlines in the first, too, it just seemed trying too hard in the humor and not quite enough parody instead of glorifying. |

lol... I feel like you pretty much had to build up from nothing in Saints Row 2 as well. I don't see how you can make it interesting if you already have everything?
We'll see though, I definitely spent a lot more time with SR2 than I first thought I was going to. |
