So they populated the land with First Person Shooters of all shapes and sizes, all forms and colours. There was Wolfenstein and Spasim, Quake and Unreal Tournament, Goldeneye and Half-Life. These games bore children, and their children bore further children, and it was good.
In this quasi-imaginative world I’ve hastily put together, Gameloft are the mad scientist. They’ve taken the best from all of the FPS’ gun-toting tots, and spliced them into a shambling monstrosity that’ll be appearing on PSN towards the end of the year for less than a tenner. Tempted yet?
Mario writes "Last year Gameloft decided they wanted a piece of the cake and joined the wave of companies releasing FPS games. They did a little game called Modern Combat: Domination, or as i like to call it, the poor man Modern Warfare."
Modern Combat Domination certainly is fun for a couple of hours, however it certainly IS NOT a poor mans Call of Duty, the game is clearly based on Counter Strike, hence why it does not have a campaign mode, and uses money to buy weapons each respawn. I am disgusted by the fact that everyone uses Modern Warfare as an argument for Modern Combat, as if they only see the whats on the surface instead of the gameplay mechanics that drive the game. Not a single mention of Counter Strike in that review, instead it's just MW and BF over and over, get your facts straight and do some research. And what's with the crappy grammar and typos? I is spelled with a capital i, and the host HAS not HAVE!
TheParanoidGamer: "Today, Gameloft have sent out PSN messages to those who have downloaded Modern Combat: Domination Demo. For a limited time only you can purchase the game for just $2.99. That’s a $5 saving!!"
I got that message in my XMB earlier. Cool deal I guess. For people who want to play the game.
I got the message too. Still not sure if it's worth it. I figure if they are trying to sell it for that price, it's only a matter of time before it's free with PS+.
hehe for some reason i bought this when it first came out for $6. the game is good but dont think ive played it in like 5 months.

Domination is a no-nonsense online first person shooter from Gameloft, focusing mainly on its refined gameplay and match types. The game originally launched in January as a downloadable title for the PlayStation 3, sporting impressively accurate Move integration, standing evidence of Gameloft’s great quality, great value initiative."
I'll definitely be pick this up for $10. Im very interested in seeing if Gameloft can it off.
