FiringSquad reviews Planetside

[Lise]

Yet another review for Planetside, this time from the guys at Firingsquad. It got an 84% overall, with the reviewer making a rather astute observation:

These are the reasons you�ll play. Not to reach Battle Rank 10, not to control Hossin or Searhus, not to earn enough certification points to get Advanced Hacking, not to bring greater glory to the New Conglomerate in their struggle against the Vanu and Terrans, and certainly not to enjoy state-of-the-art graphics and AI. You play to plug yourself into these little vignettes. In this regard, PlanetSide is like no other game you�ve ever played. And it works.

The "Forever War" segment exactly sums up my biggest problem with the game perfectly. I do feel like that'll be corrected eventually though...

I'm glad some reviewers get the point
