@(Unverified) Funny, I was recently hoping they could port you to a Verified account. But then I realized there's no market for them to do that because you're a terrible elitist.
Another instance in which I try desperately to make a damned comment only to have Joystiq eat the entire thing no matter how I hack at its content.
Anyway, I feel like the reviewer was expecting something besides a Resident Evil game here. I didn't have problems with the cover system, he obviously didn't know how to properly perform melee kills (hit "Special" button after chaining a few melee hits), and I feel like he just really dumped all over the game for reasons I'm not entirely sure of (the crappy partner AI is forgiveable, though). I really thought the game deserved more than this implication that the whole game is garbage.
Besides, how can you complain that a Resident Evil-themed 3rd-person shooter is both too short and recycles scenery when Call of Duty games do the exact same thing and get praised for it?
I need confirmation that reloading works exactly like it does in the arcade, and I need confirmation that some company has made a Move controller shell that will hold onto the controller for dear life so that reloading my dual Uzis will not break all of the windows in my house.
