2nd that. Adam Sessler is usually right, but he was off his rocker on this one, with a 2/5

This youTUBE link will be your friend (every Collectable in the game):

The achievement says you must collect all 6 collectables in any level, and that will pop

I don't know why it's been getting bad reviews, it's been pretty good so far.

Thanks for the link, but I had already collected all the collectibles from levels 1 and 2 with no achievement, but now just got the last collectible on Trial With Fire and it popped. So not exactly sure what causes it to pop when it does... But thank you anyways.
Just checked out that link and she states on her videos that she doesn't have every collectible in the game so I'm sticking with the smartglass video locations as you can see your progress through the mission and when such collectible is upcoming...

Something about the shallow combat and few enemy types. I'm more interested in the Multiplayer tbh.

My opinion is, it's a hack and slash combat will be repetitive, I just wish there was more customization around weaponry (wish we were allowed a bow and arrow) lol, and maybe perks or something like it.

Multiplayer is REALLY fun. I thought I'd just try it out (at 2:30am), & got matched with a cool guy from Australia, ended up playing over an hour. Had some issues with enemies frozen- so had to quit out- but that was the same with Mass Effect 3 multiplayer. The difference here- is if that happens, you can keep all your XP.
Basically it's like the Russell Crowe Gladiator movie- but the game EXPECTS you to die. If you die, it just loads a new game, saving your XP won. If you happen to SURVIVE, it increases the stakes- throwing new challenges at you. Save civilians, or kill a fleeing commander, or dominate a checkpoint, etc. Was really fun. I have a feeling the REVIEWERS couldn't use this mode well, because it definitely has some replayability. QTE-type combat? Yes- I do agree. But the multiplayer was really damn fun, first few hours in.

Yeah the mp has a lot of potential if they keep adding to it.

Saw a game reviewer a few days ago who was using wiki to find out who Trixie360 was. He seriously had no clue. He also seemed to be a big CoD fan.
