    Oh sure, instant death combat, so original for the genre.

  2. MertieHunter

    Let's be real, we keep pitting it against Portal and Smash Ultimate like they belong in the same conversation, don't you think that skews the votes more than it should?

    ComboRunner

    Exacto, esas comparaciones absurdas también me sacan de quicio a mí, siempre pasa lo mismo en cada duelo.

  3. Carpentier2010

    Face à des mastodontes comme Uncharted, il joue clairement dans une autre catégorie, plus modeste mais tout aussi maîtrisée.

    Córdoba2003

    Modeste, quizás, pero eso no lo pone automáticamente por encima de nada, cada juego juega su propio partido y comparar así no aporta gran cosa

    RogueRider2008

    Modeste peut-être, mais qui a dit qu'il fallait rivaliser en échelle pour mériter sa place?

  4. Pixel_Espinosa

    Al lado de Assassin's Creed II parece minúsculo en escala, pero en precisión de movimiento le da mil vueltas.

    Yo lo jugué con mi hermano mirando por encima del hombro, y sí, en precisión gana, aunque como experiencia compartida se queda corto.

  5. Cosmo_Corrales

    A mí me atrapó por la estética, la música, todo encaja, bueno también el combate cuenta pero eso ya lo an dicho otros.
