Great work on pop2, b1ll - the game is amazing!
I've been meaning to grab this, the previews look really slick.
Yeah thanks guys, It was a fun ride working on pop2 I guess hehe
Yeah I'll try and post the stuff I did on it, Im not sure what I sent home before I quit tho ahah

framerates get kinda low in ps2, im guessing xbox handles it better though!
you've gotta be sick of Godsmack by now too... i was before i started playing pop2, and now im EVEN MORE sick of them
great game though, the chase sequences fucking rock. and the environments are gorgeous!! some wicked character designs too; reeking with a sweetass style. woo!
Ya, I heard the controlls were pooop hehe, And yeah framerate is mad too, Map are awsome, but optimise? nah. hehe
Ya, characters are allright, I could of do the proportions I wanted , but i couldnt, had to follow the wacky prince poportions ARF...
How's Dahaka , You've seen it yet
I love the SW, when u get there tell me!

What worries me is Pop2 has received some bad reviews. Like I said, I haven't played it so I don't know for sure, but these reviews are saying that Pop2 is lacking many of the elements that make Pop1 so awesome. I guess I'll see for myself in a couple days.
While I'm a big Godsmack fan, I don't understand why they included them in the soundtrack for this game. My fear is Ubisoft is pushing to make this game more "hardcore X-treme", and I'm afraid that will take away it's ability to age well with a larger audience of young gamers.
As for Godsmack, yes, I like(d) the group but the songs chosen for PoPWW were among their absolute worst. I didn't like them when I first heard them, I don't like them in a game context.
the SW is damn cool, i digs it.
i crashed the game once tonight.... grr had to backtrack quite a bit. i think the game was supposed to go into a cinematic, but i decided to rewind cause i jumped off a ledge. doh. it bugged out on me once earlier, to the point that i had to restart from the last save. Those things aside, im still loving it, even more so now!
I'd be interested to know if part of the reasoning behind the switch had anything to do with the fact that you're playing a character who is from what is now Iraq. I guess the marketers would have been somewhat worried about putting forth an arab as a hero...
I dont think the switch as anything to do with iraq stuff, Were kanadian, we dont put that much thought in things har har har
The part that got bad reviews is the sound, because of the lame godsmack choice..
The style while, u like or not I guess...
I had great fun making dahaka, less doing the SW , because i had to make it fit into the asslooking prince skelly.
Oh, and dahaka, when i first made it, he didnt have legs under the knee, because the smoke was suppose to be hyper dense.. It was cool.. lol
So far the graphics are excellent. At times, only suitable for mature audiences. The enemies opening cinematic shows her well rounded ass as she glides along seducing her minions (why!?). Marketing gimmick? Some of the game artists need more time with their girlfriends, or atleast a 5 minute bathroom break. Then there's decapitations....etc.
The game play is still the best feature. The fighting includes more choices, but the enemies are damn annoying. "Let's finish him!" Yeah, that line has never been used a million times. That leads to my next complaint.
Who wrote the script? Was it the same guy/girl who wrote pop1? The game is summarized with "Kill, Die, Time, You will die, Die, Die, Die, Kill, Die, Bitch (why would a prince of ancient times use this word!?), Time, Die, Kill, I'm not impressed, Kill, Time....time time time etc."
I finished Pop1 last night after dealing with a scratched disk error for weeks, and immediately slid in Pop2. Now that I'm past the ship sequence, I'm enjoying the game for what it was suppose to be. I'm mostly happy with the visuals, and gameplay. The annoying non-arabic nu-metal soundtrack pisses me off. The prince looks great, but the designs for the female characters don't.
So far very good like PoP1(or4?) I'm in total agreement with ElysiumGX's post -" The enemies opening cinematic shows her well rounded ass as she glides along seducing her minions (why!?)" realy, the metal-bikini that's all the rage with Game females lately, come on enough now. And how she cock teases the dead guys- like WTF?
Also Like most games I killed the sound track about 15min into playing. Nu-metal as in new? I not hearing the 'new'.
One thing that bothers me is the screen centric movement. It took me a long time to get used to it with pop2. I wish they had a toggle for body centric movement.

nu-metal
Musical genre of the 21st century that has become wildly popular in the mainstream. Originally developed in the early 90s, the music features simplistic and repetitive melodies, no real lyrical meaning or musical direction, vocals that are off-key or monotone, absolutely no lead guitar playing, a value over image instead of musical talent and songwriting, and albums that include several filler tracks in order to sell better. A lot of bands have intentionally placed themselves into this demographic primarily for publicity and wealth. Nu-Metal craze seems to appeal among the suburban teens of America.
I'm questioning the reasoning of why there is no blend of old eastern style music within the game (like Pop1) to create an appropriate atmosphere...instead of the repeated series of bland distorted power chords?
ive stopped playing it - got pissed of at (one of) the empress fights and havent gone back to it yet.
