Rogue Warrior Game Walkthrough (2 of 8) Mission 2: KISS

►► http://alturl.com/pmi2 ◄◄ Rogue Warrior 3.5 out of 10 Video Review: Inexcusable Game Rogue Warrior / Platform Xbox 360 / Genre(s) FPS A few months ago, I walked over to the Bethesda booth during the Penny-Arcade Expo in Seattle and played through a level of Rogue Warrior. I was literally blown away by how mediocre it was, and wondered if it was possible for Rebellion Games to turn everything around before the game was released in November. When November rolled around, the game didnt release, being pushed back to December. When a game is released in December, its quality is immediately suspect, and its often considered to be a month that publishers ship games of low quality, essentially cutting their losses and hoping that a few foolish consumers might pick it up for the holidays. Rogue Warrior had everything stacked up against it when it was finally released, huge delays, a publisher shift, and a release date in December, but there was one thing that forced at least slight optimism: Bethesda. Bethesda doesnt really make mistakes, as proven with the Elder Scrolls series and Fallout, so their support goes a long way. The hope was that the overall package would hold together, even if the previews didnt, and that they knew something that the rest of us didnt. They didnt. Loosely based off of the autobiography of Navy Seal, Richard Marcinko, the story sends players on a mission into Soviet territory in the 1980s to destroy missiles being held by North Koreans. If youve ever played a game before, youve likely seen every location the game has to offer. Warehouses, Soviet bases, and more warehouses; there are only a few locations in the story, and they all look and play essentially the same. In fact, it feels as though they could have been presented in any order without losing much storytelling, since they all begin with a few seconds of voiceover and end with a closing cutscene. Almost every mission has Marcinko planting explosives on missiles or trying to find military documents, and very few actually build off of the events in the preceding level.
