The Dames 0 Report post Posted August 24, 2002 My boy EQ(Viva La Poop) and I were watching Raw when the commercial for The Thing came on. He said "Holy Shit!" and I said...."Let me guess, you're going to get it?" He said "Hell no, i'm surprised they'd advertise a shitty game like that!" He then ran down all of the reasons why it looked shitty from the commercial alone.....this guy is a video game genius. I'll tap him to come over here and give you guys the low down when he gets back from the Jersey Shore. Dames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted August 25, 2002 It looked cool. You have to work with your team...and you don't know if they have the thing inside of them...so it could attack you at every time. Plus...if the group doesn't trust you...they'll turn on you. It got a good review, in the one review that I read...I think it was GamePro Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll tap him to come over here and give you guys the low down when he gets back from the Jersey Shore. Rise of the Robots had an awesome commercial on German television when it came out. It looked like a must buy. Judging a game from commercials alone doesn't scream "genius" to me. The Thing looks alright, I'll rent it. Then I can judge what it is like Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Angle-plex Report post Posted August 28, 2002 It got good reviews in gamepro. Anyone play it yet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest the pinjockey Report post Posted August 28, 2002 It is pretty kick ass so far. It looks cool as hell, but a lot of the people are whiny bitches. If you meet up with a person who is not a soldier from your crew they immediately want a gun or they won't listen to you. Right now I only have one gun and the guy is a fucking engineer (three classes soldier, medic, and engineer) and you have to have an engineer to fix most of the doors. So instead of being able to say you fix shit and I will kill shit he has to carry the gun which means if he is fixing while being attacked you're screwed. Plus they swear alot which is pretty cool in a video game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Flyboy Report post Posted August 28, 2002 Er... what system/console is it on? I'm guessing it's not on PC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest the pinjockey Report post Posted August 28, 2002 PS2, but I am pretty sure they have a pc version. And I am renting it as well, it is a good rental but I don't think I would buy it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
