Geez, I didn’t think they made games this bad anymore. I guess I have stuck to the widely acclaimed titles these days. Where to start? Hmmm, well, the framerate tends to drop off quite often and you get an example of this in the first steps you make at the beginning of the game as everything gets a little jumpy and the framerate drops below 25 frames per second. The primary goal of this games’ development is gore factor and you will see enemy limbs fall off frequently as blood splatters abundantly and the dying enemies play out over-dramatic death throws. Also, you will notice that the dispatched will often vanish before they hit the ground, and that barrel that they are taking cover behind…..you can shoot right through that. Just like the spoon, it’s not really there.
Really, this game is hilariously bad, unless you love gore, then it’s just plain bad.
I can’t even tell you what SOF:P is about, because frankly I don’t care, so here’s the skinny. This game does support southpaw but be warned that by selecting this option the primary functions (see: R1/R2, L1/L2) are swapped, and of course Legacy is not to be found in this title.
This is our final warning, conform to the default control scheme or suffer the pain of missing out on titles like this.
Thumbs down! Queue the control menu pictures.
Default config #1 Default config #2 Southpaw config

January 21st, 2008 at 8:09 amI was actually going to rent this one tonight to try it out but I think I’ll pass now. No Legacy and a “thumbs down” means this one gets swept under the carpet for me..!
Oh… and I love how there’s 2 versions of default but no Legacy. What gives with that? Oh well… this one doesn’t seem to be much of a loss anyway
