It’s all in Russian and is over twenty minutes long. Looking around, I found a Youtube video from “AntiAbdoluv” boasting of a record low for Darksiders II‘s user review scores. What makes this unique is the fact that most of the reviews are in Russian text, and make frequent reference to Biboran and Ansha-Abdul.
The PS3 version of the game has an overwhelming 1,071 negative scores compared to nine positive, making for an average score of 0.8. It’s happened to the likes of Portal 2 and Call of Duty, but in the case of Darksiders II, it’s a little different. We’ve done this dance many times before: a new game comes out, gamers get pissed about something, and exact revenge by organizing a mass of negative user reviews on Metacritic. That said, the reviews may just be this one guy using bots.] Reaver dug up a little more on Ansha Abdul - a Russian video reviewer who might be legitimately crazy and managed to organize his fans into a “religious” cult called Biboran. Update: According to the chat section of the Biboran site, people are mad about the quality of the PS3 port.
Update 2: According to discussions had between Dtoid users and Biboran, they seem to blame the Fukushima reactor disaster on Sony, and that’s part of why they’re waging a “two-year war” against the company. The cult is dedicated to keeping alive the memory of an old Soviet actor from the 50s, who they openly acknowledge as “scum.” They also make music and write lengthy diatribes about breaking the law. [ Update 3: A Russian speaking friend of mine went through the site and believes it to be a highly detailed troll.
Its fun to play and has a fantastic story to progress through.Sleeping Dogs and Dark Souls PC also attacked This is easily one of the top non-GTA open world games. The combat takes a moment to get used to, but it's essentially a brawler done right in an open world which really hasn't been done as all the GTA fist fights were terrible. My only gripes with it are that the gunplay seems undercooked, but the focus is the hand-to-hand combat which is what makes up for it. It's cast of characters are fantastic and Wei is much more enjoyable to be than the generic GTA characters. The side missions for the gang are more fun and varied.
The side missions for the cop side are alright, they get super repetitive, but they're still fun. You have to balance being a cop and a gangster. You are an undercover cop with the Sun On Yee triad gang. The main draw for me is the story it tells. Normally it's just cover shooting and lock on to enemies until they're dead. It doesn't feel 100% as smooth as it should, but it suffices for the missions you need it. The shooting combat is probably the weakest. This one is more strategic as some enemies you can only counter before damaging, or ones you can only grapple or land heavy attacks. The flow of the combat isn't as graceful as Batman as you're not really able to connect counter after counter together.
But it goes deeper as you can almost do fighting game combos to fight enemies. There are counters that can be done when an enemy lights up and is about to hit. The combat is essentially a version of Arkham Asylum. The main focus of the action is fighting like you're in a Hong Kong action movie. There are a decent amount of missions with guns, but since it is Hong Kong, they're hard to come by in the open world. It focuses on fighting combat more than guns. I took some time away from it and started it up last week and I loved it! This isn't your typical open world city game. The combat was frustrating and I never felt like I was doing it right. When I first tried to play Sleeping Dogs, I did not like it.
