Can someone post here? Looking for feedback...I will not blindly drop $60 on a game. Went to metacritic and they have yet to post and usually they are the first ones out with review. Thanks Blu_Crew...

It looks good enough for me. EB Games has some pics up if memory serves so I'll be grabbing it as soon as I can.

seto · 02-27-2008, 07:53 PM

I believe some people posted (somewhere) that they DL'd a demo and that it was not up to par. The found that the game and the graphics were lacking and unpolished and the feeling was that this game was somewhat outdated compared to what is out there today.

WOW, what a bummer...thanks Seto for the info...I guess theres never a good time for bad news

toppsseller · 02-27-2008, 08:15 PM

I agree with the previous post. While I find the storyling very intriguing the gameplay and graphics left much to be desired. It was kind of like playing an Xbox 1 game. It doesn't compare to what's available right now with games like Call Of Duty 4, Gears, or Rainbow Six: Vegas.

owa · 02-27-2008, 08:24 PM

Yeah, someone mentioned that when I said I might get it in one of the other threads. I looked a for a demo of it last night but didn't find anything on PSN. Where is everyone getting the demo?

Luis_A51 · 02-27-2008, 08:37 PM

the pics i saw from gamespot showed dissapointing graphics

warhawk21114 · 02-27-2008, 08:50 PM

I just got the game for the ps3, graphics are decent _nothing like COD 4 though, gameplay is pretty much your avg. shooter with a setting change. Will post more on it when I get time but a little thing called class and a quiz is my main focus at the moment. and that demo on xbx live was an older in progress version of the game, it is more polished then that!

owa · 02-29-2008, 11:25 PM

I went ahead and got this anyway. Didn't start out good. After doing its install, it locked up on the screen where it asks you to press start to begin the game. I had to hold down the power button but after rebooting and trying it again, it worked fine. Graphics aren't too bad and look better than I thought it would considering some of the comments on the demo.

Blu boy · 03-01-2008, 12:02 AM

hey how does this game compare to moh airborne? cause i hated that game and lots of people said it was ok like you are saying about this game. and is there a demo or videos on the psn for this game?

Turning Point: Fall of Liberty gets a interestingly poor review. - 3.9 / 10

They definitely didn't like it.

Although we have seen worse looking games before, I can’t recall one in the last 2 years that has compared to the awesome suck fest that is Turning Point. The opening to the game was semi cool, with explosions that do nothing to the environment, pre rendered environment interactions mean that this game plays exactly the same every time, leaving no room for replayability. However, as we all know, it is not just about the graphics, if the gameplay is there you can still have a solid title.

Heh, wish they would tell us how they really feel.

statikcat · 03-01-2008, 01:35 AM

People on the 360 forums at GT were tearing the demo up. They tend to be somewhat lenient also. I was kind of looking forward to it but it seems to fall in the category of Conflict Denied. lol

warhawk21114 · 03-01-2008, 05:50 AM

I have played it through and as much as a fan of the story line, I give it a 6.5/10 graphics are decent, like the enviroment. But a the ending bugs me, carson does not speak, the controls need a little bit of tweaking but are pretty solid over all. just increase the length of the story and give me a few more missions plus some more open ended play

Zyclone · 03-01-2008, 11:07 AM

i was interested in this then i heard the demo was really bad then other people said the final game was'nt much better.

cajun1975 · 03-01-2008, 01:54 PM

I, for one, love the game. But then again I love playing FPS. I'll tell you this, its a hell of a lot better then Blacksite Area 51. That was just a pile of shit.

I've played the demo and thought it was ok. Nothing special, I won't drop $60 for it. Personally if I buy it, I'll wait until it's in the $20-$30 price range.

Justice · 03-01-2008, 10:12 PM

Games like call of duty 4 and rainbow six vegas, orange box and even resistance should set a standard. anything less just is ghey...

I rented it yesterday and after 2 minutes i realized that this game doesn't live up to ps3 standards maybe ps2. anyways just my opinion, its a cool idea just not done proper. Kind of like ang lee's version of hulk.

jq71586 · 03-02-2008, 03:24 AM

I've been playing this game for about 5 hours now. Normally I don't play this long, but I'm sick and it was a free rental, so what they hey.

This game certainly isn't a 3.5. I'd say a 6. The idea for the story is solid, but they don't fill it in with anything or support it. All the guys wear bulletproof jackets on easy and take 6 bullets to bring down.

The grapple system is cool where you can instant kill someone, use them as a shield, or in some cases an environmental kill where I just shoved some guy into the White House furnace. Also the army was pretty easy going for letting a construction worker do all these missions.

The graphics, while not terrible, aren't good either. There are some good explosions, some bad. And the sound leaves something to be desired.

This is nothing but another run of the mill first person shooter. Worth a rent, or a buy around 25 dollars. Not a 3.5

The JQ Score - 6
