HL2 EP2: Grey Mod.

[Sexbad]

Rage was a terrible game, Period! the whole thing stank, if thats what we can expect from ID in the future, lazy, derivative COD clones with broken vehicular sections that feel like a budget burnout copy crossed with the mother of all insults to carmageddon, then perhaps bethesda should just axe the studio right now. perhaps you could think of a better example of a great game damaged by bad vehicular segments (cough, "Agent Under Fire" on gamecube, Cough), than just using a genuinely bad game...

as i said, i dont really see cry of fear as a horror game, grey is probably the same, yes they have moments in them that genuinely have me screaming loud enough to send the street deaf, but they are not really horror in the vein of say penumbra or amenesia, they are more "Resident evil in first person" classic Shooters with jumpscares and horror inspired monsters. played as that, they become far more enjoyable than they are played as pure horror. very few games can actually be played like that.

RAGE was an absolutely amazing shooter that was terrible at everything that wasn't shooting. The AI, weapons and environments gave me a feeling of visceral brilliance I hadn't felt since F.E.A.R. I was addressing RAGE because of the unacceptable vehicle sections that, by Traggey's defense, could probably be acceptable because some brainless hacks in Russia did racing worse.

And no, even as an action horror game (rather than survival horror), it's just a terrible game. It's just one AI-less enemy rushing at you down a corridor at a time, and then you gun it down. That's lazier challenge design than cover shooting, for fuck's sake.
