KingBeast 0 Posted March 15, 2002 lol I jsut read a review of a childrens game made by Bohemia Interactive, and it wasnt received very well. Heres a section of the article from PC Gamer UK: (BIS' games "Fairtytale") "No child is going to play this. Children like proper games, not half hearted attempts to teach them ridiculous morals in a painfully sanitised world. And even if you were the parents who wanted their child to be absorbed into this reality, maybe a friendly fisherman returning a snuff box to our young heroine Nastya, shouldnt say: "Ive finished the Tobacco. It was a great help to me. Now I can breathe more easily." Nor, perhaps, was the inclusion of "life-restoring" vodka such a good idea." It got 47% Stick to war games lads!

Damage Inc 0 Posted March 15, 2002 PC Gamer is a bunch of idiots anyway. But why bother with them when you can always just play the game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingBeast 0 Posted March 15, 2002 I dont know, most of the reviews seem pretty accurate. Are you going to spend money on this fairy tale game? Sounds rather silly to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damage Inc 0 Posted March 15, 2002 Of course not. But they still couldn't review their ass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LordZach 0 Posted March 15, 2002 i can't seem to picture the BIS logo on a kids game... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingBeast 0 Posted March 15, 2002 BIS Projects I agree, looks rather strange having Operation flashpoint, a war sim just above a nice mythical fairy tale game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie_McSheenie 1 Posted March 15, 2002 only exceptions i've ever found to pcg uk reviews: 1.warhammer darkomen and star wars rebellion actually quite good, although on both those they made a lot of valid points tiberian sun = crap force commander = rubbish deus ex = boring and slow all quakes = naff thats pretty much everything, and i've been a subscriber for years. i think people are overly harsh on them, they are pretty nice guys. On my time on their forums ages ago they were always helping me out with stuff. i even once had a massive debate along with about 20 other with kieron gillen and matt pierce over why limp bizkit sucked/didn't suck (this was back when i only had three dollar bill y'all, i didn't have choco starfish). And just because they gave a BIS game a shite score doesn't mean they suck, because it seems to me this game sucks ass Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damage Inc 0 Posted March 15, 2002 That's not the reason. The reason is I have many PC Gamers (including the first ever) and most of the stuff I find in them is s**t. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damage Inc 0 Posted March 15, 2002 They're all crap, I have a few new ones and they still seem to read the back of the box for their reviews and then fill the rest with shit (very often when I read the reviews I think WTF is he talking about?). Well at least it isn't as bad as Excite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But there is some shite in it, i just ignore it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingBeast 0 Posted March 15, 2002 Ruskie, Deus Ex boring and slow??? How much of the game did you play? The first level and then you gave up perhaps? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damage Inc 0 Posted March 15, 2002 The first level of Deus Ex sucks Especially when you play it with a P233+Voodoo 2 The rest of the game is fortunately excellent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingBeast 0 Posted March 15, 2002 Yeah most of my friends just didnt bother with Deus Ex at first because they didnt liek the first level. Then a few motnhs later when they tried it again properly they couldnt stop talking about how good a game it was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madmike 0 Posted March 15, 2002 I used to buy PC gmaer before I got the net. Its not worth the money, paying Å5 to play on 1 good demo and read 2 pages then never look at it again. Most of the reviews were good, they gave ofp a very high sore, possible 95%?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
