Shut your pie-holes. Who cares if there's 2 guns or not - it's not going to make or break the game. It's a new feature, like hijacking vehicles, designed to add a tiny thrill to the gameplay. A tiny thrill, but for f**ks sake the main focus is that there's actually a new game, new challenges, new plot. If you're so bothered that it's the 'same old game', why bother playing any games anymore, there are hardly any new concepts that are so instantly enjoyable. In fact, why even bother getting up in the morning - the sky's still blue, just like yesterday, but it's nice to look at. Unlike your ugly faces.

The only complaints about dual wielding I have are the fact Bungie seem to cream over it like it's some major innovation.

Nice extra and all but it really has been done before.

Yeah you have to keep thinking happy thoughts to avoid shooting at the ground.

I'd call San Andreas a reserve reserve list Christmas present...you know, a present for if everything else is sold out.

That's like saying Lisa Riley is stocking filler for a cannibal.

Not only is it an absolutely stunning game on it's own but it is anything but a stocking filler. A 150 + hour GTA fest isn't what I would call stocking filler.

Psi-Ops is stocking filler or something along those lines.

Goldeneye had dual wielding, but not properly. Two AK47s at the one time? Not in real life. I'm not saying there aren't any, but I can't think of any other games that have had proper weapon carrying and wielding. Up until Halo pretty much everything was carry as many weapons as you find.

Technically it is a first of its kind in THAT each weapon is controller independantly by each of the shoulder buttons,. name agame that uses a soulder button for each? goldeneye and PD had 2 but they were both similtaneously controlled, not that ic an see an advantage of individual controling>?

Metal Arms: A Glitch in the System did it, and that was an excellent game too. You could even use weapons from one hand in conjunction with weapons in the other. And you could drive loads of vehicles too. In fact, that was one hell of a game!
