"the question is if the game is large enough to justify it as a sequel or is it just DLC content?"
I don't think that is the question at all. At and around the release of L4D1, Valve gave the impression that a flood of new content, like new characters, new weapons, new maps, would be steadily released (comparable to how Team Fortress 2 is receiving updates). This never happened. Instead, Valve is taking that promised L4D1 content and releasing it as a full-priced tit...
I find it very easy to take a side in this argument.
Valve promised new characters, new maps, new weapons and new special infected would be coming as free updates to L4D1. This never happened. Instead, they are releasing this promised content as a separate full-priced title.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice... well, you're not going to fool me twice.
oh open zone... <3
No?
Chris, don't be a d!ck, mmk?
Forza2 was fantastic. (IMO, Forza2 is amongst the small list of reasons to even own a 360.) If Forza3 is an upgraded version of Forza2, it will be fantastic as well.
Yet it seems like every article that I read about Turn10 they just come off like bigger @ssholes. Stick to developing games, Turn10. The quality of your title will speak for itself.
@Below: No. I'll just de-bubble you, put you on ignore and report you for harassment. Thanks though. Quit following ...
He might be. Are you a phuckhead in real life too or is that just your online persona?
See, Murder, this is the Open Zone. Isn't it fun?
"Why don't you ask the hundreds of PS3 fanboys that troll these threads?"
I call it when I see it. I saw it today, and so I called it out. The times that I don't call it out, I de-bubble people. It's not a tit-for-tat sort of thing. I don't have a problem with "fanboys". I have a problem with trolls and 360 man is a blatant and obvious troll. There's one thing to revel in the strengths of your chosen system, but it's entirely another to waltz in to a thr...
I guess I'm just not all that jazzed about Crysis 2 on PC nor consoles. IMO, Crysis 1 was fairly lackluster, and because of that I just can't get interested in C2.
Microsoft's conference was a lot flashier and ran a hell of a lot smoother. The marketing and smoke-and-mirrors FORCE was STRONG with that one. They played it almost flawlessly for their primarily American audience.
However...
Sony's conference blew the competition away where it matters most to me and that's the GAMES!
This isn't exactly the case. Being a multi-platform title, it isn't in the developer's interest to have one version look better than the other. If both look and play nearly identical, then from a developer's standpoint it's for the better.
Had T6 remained PS3 exclusive, it could have very well looked better than it does now, especially considering that development time and manpower wouldn't be cut in half.
On a more personal note, why is it that you troll, 360 man?...
I posted this in another thread, but I feel that it is just as relevant here.

Watch "Episode 60" Special E3 edition. These guys pegged E3 09' pretty much perfectly.

IMO, they are pretty much spot-on.
I support this boycott and am a member of the NO-L4D2 steam group.
I also prefer the PS3 to XBOX360, but prefer my PC to all.

MGS: Rising is to Metal Gear Solid

Dirge of Cerberus is to Final Fantasy VII
Why can't Valve patch these updates in to the original game ALA Team Fortress 2? Daytime, updated AI, and new weapons hardly seem to warrant L4D2's inevitable $50 pricetag.
A better question would be, who cares? RARE has single-handedly made themselves irrelevant in the gaming industry. I wish that they could drag themselves out of this slump and develop something of substance, but after so many years I just can't see it happening.
Quoted from the article:
"Final Verdict
Microsoft came out swinging this year and went for the throat with big title announcements and big feature additions. The exclusive content is not as big a deal as they make it, and likely neither is Project Natal. However, big titles like Halo: Reach, Crackdown 2, Metal Gear Solid Rising, and Left for Dead 2 are major points for the Xbox 360. The added music and video features mean that Microsoft has finally truly positioned their b...
I'm not really certain how to respond to you, JOY. I mean, it's obvious that you're speaking to me as clearly noted with an @caladbolg777, but everything you said afterward was neither a quote of mine nor had anything to do with the comment that I made.
Wow. Funny stuff.

The least CNET could have done was close the poll when Forza 3 was winning. The T10 community managers went through all the trouble to bribe people to vote for Forza and STILL ended up losing in the poll. That's Kharma.
@iANONYMOUS: Not bribing? Let's imagine that you and I are in the same class. We're voting for class pr...
