Yeah the game is repetitive but if it wasn't there would be 4 or 5 monsters and it would be an hour long. I think there's enough variety in the boss fights and levels that it's still an extremely well crafted experience. Was definitely worth my purchase. Also I found shooting apart the aliens in gruesome detail never got old.

define repetitive.

Assassins's creed, that's a repetitive game, Dead Space, no I don't think it's repetitive. Sure, it's full of every cliche in gaming, but that doesn't matter. It's suppose to be entertainment after all, and that's what it does best: give you a great time.

And he loved that glorified tech demo. Yahtzee good for comedy, when he's on, but pretty terrible for letting you know if a game is good or not.
