Thanks Rob, I honestly couldn't have said it better myself. This new game seemed to be very generic, there were plenty of flaws in game play, and it simply wasn't as fun as the original. Placing a classic title on a new game, as in this instance, should warrant a much more faithful "recreation" (and I use the term recreation loosely as this is NOT a recreation of the original).
And I just want to clarify that the demo on the E3 floor was only of multi-player matches in which the settings were already preselected. Originally, my goal was to give you guys a quick overview of my gaming experience due to the limited scope provided by the demo. Here at Pixlbit, we try to keep our readers in the loop as much as possible on what is going on in the gaming world. Once we obtain a full copy of the game, we will be able speak more to the one player mode as well as to the full extent of multi-player gameplay.
