[Multiplatform] BLACK

In this thread you can tell me about how awesome the game BLACK is which came out this past feb. 28. For me the expierence of watching the trailers themselves was practically orgasm inducing. Unfortunately I don't personally own a PS2, but I'm condsidering looking to get one for cheap.
So is BLACK worth all the fuss?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Well the only other thing I have to play games on is the PC, and it's not coming out for the PC as far as I know. Also those Xbox people can make their own BLACK thread if they feel like it.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

K... Can anyone confirm whether or not there is no jumping in this game? I am kind of anxious to know.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Ok... then I am assuming that also applies to all versions. I'm guessing if it's not avaibable then it's not nessecary but still... wtf.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Wow... so many negative comments. What a let down. D:

Yeah I love FEAR, but I've played through it 4 times already. I figured because I liked FEAR I might like BLACK aswell. FEAR was sooo easy though even on the hardest setting. And I am not very good at video games in general so it kind of surprised me.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Yeah actually that blurrying effect sounds like a really cool idea. I mean it's realistic. Try it yourself put your out in front of you and focus on them then focus on whatevers infront of you. Interesting aslong as its not an extreme blur, like I'd hate to get a headache from playign a video game like Newbie1234 said they expierienced.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I'll probably do that since I don't even have a PS2 and I just upgraded to 2gb ram for my comp. I was also thinking of getting the Doom 3 ressurection of evil add on. Yes, I still play Doom 3.

Most amazing jew boots

Hmm... two questions. What has better graphics? FEAR played on highest graphics settings or BLACK? And does BLACK have realistic shadows in it or shadows at all?

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Wait... THERE IS NO BLOOD? Why?

How ya doing, buddy?

I can't really see Criterion tearing down parts of the engine just to add blood, where it wasn't REALLY important. Sure it would have been nice, but during gameplay I never really stopped and said "where's the blood?"

K. It's just that if I think of a game like FEAR. It just wouldn't be the same without the bloody mist and gore. Maybe I should just stay out of my thread until I've actual played this game. >.<

Just wondering but but graphics settings were you playing FEAR on? Doesn't sound like you were able to crank em all up or something.

God damn we need who quoted me feature back...

How ya doing, buddy?

I lol'ed.

Anyway, thanks for your input Shin I figured that would be the same way I would look at it since I like to search around and take my time, it would probably take me about that amount to finish each level judging by what you said.
