Title: Black
Post by: ShyGuy on May 24, 2007, 06:11:14 AM
...nMild2k1! Ohohoho I amuse myself.

But no seriously, Black as in "The video game on PS2 made by the people who made Burnout" Black. I borrowed my cousin's PS2 and am in the process of playing through this game. I'm liking it so far. It's pretty generic as far as the gameplay and story are concerned but it does it all very well. Looks and sounds great too. My biggest complaint so far is the hit detection, Followed by the fact that can take a dozen shots to take down an enemy from a medium distance.

Incidentally, I purchased the Split Fish EdgeFX controller to play the game too, since I hate dual analog. It's... both good and bad as a controller.


Anyone else play Black and like it?

There's probably a topic on this game that is 2 or 3 years old, but thats ok.

I love the game, though I agree that its an average FPS. I have it on xbox and its a purty game. And its a bit like Burnout where its a nice game to release some tension. But its short, took me 6 hours to complete and the lack of multiplayer makes it a little difficult to come back to. Once done you can choose what level to play and some can be intense. Also, headshots are fairly easy. I try to run through the levels seeing how many head shots I can get.

I only bought it cause it was $20. Originally a rental was all it was worth.

NOPE I LOOKED

Did you play through the game on easy or normal? The levels take me a few hours apiece.

I'd buy it if it was 10-20 Euros but the price seems unwilling to fall at all...

Black is competent. A next-gen, erm, I mean, current-gen version would be something I would look into.

But I thought once you go black, you can't go back?

its short

It was short?! But I thought......um, well, I mean...

It seems I've been terribly misinformed.

Its not the size of the wave, its the motion of the ocean.

Wait, this is Black, not Wind Wan - er- Walker. Its not the size of the muzzle, its how many rounds per second you pull off. Um, that doesn't even rhyme. Whatever, just because its gun porn doesn't mean it has to relate to it, right? Right?

I suppose the length of the game depends on your gaming style. I'm all Quake like. I even end up playing Counter-Strike like Quake. Run n Gun.
