... I think this is probably the stupidest idea for a cross over, ever.

Oi! You're not allowed to go and tell!

You have to stay here and defend yourself by using constructive arguments!

But I agree, Portal is the only reason to buy The Orange Box.

"Portal > Half Life 2"

You're so thick. Let me fix that statement for you,

Portal >>>>> Half Life 2

I know I'm going to be lots of disagrees for this, but...

Half Life 2 is probably the most overrated game I have ever played in my life.

* It's too long
* It's too repetitive (caused by the above)
* It has the worst story in a game ever (ie - Gordon Freeman is supposed to be some iconic figure, but says NOTHING).
* Clichéd gameplay elements (exploding barrels)
* Annoying team mate AI
* Unimaginative weaponry (except for the Gravity ...

So this game is NOT some sick joke?!!

Man, Mortal Kombat has sunk to a new low. I fondly remember the heady days of MK2 in the arcades; how we'd all crowd around and try and figure out the moves and beat Kintaro.

I get the feeling that someone at Midway suggested they reboot the franchise like how it was done with Batman. I guess someone took it literally...

Not another one. I HATED the first game.

It was just... crap.

... that so many f cking ISPs in the UK are now blocking or throating bittorent.

It would be okay if we could encrypt the download, but we're not given that option. Thanks a lot, Virgin Media.

Wow, we wrote that at exactly the same time... Did you have the same dream as me last night..? :)

Where the **** is my ******* Transformers Blu-ray, Paramount?!!

Seriously, I hope they hurry up and release this. Although I have this gut feeling they won't be doing so until the sequel is nearly upon us...

Yes it did.

But the reason for that was just due to really bad timing.

It was released at the same time as SPLINTER CELL and PRINCE OF PERSIA. So it went up against two highly anticipated, excellent titles. BG&E didn't arrive to the same amount of fan fare.

I'll admit that I only picked it up when I heard from fellow gamers what I'd missed out on...

THE HONOUR OF THE KNIGHTS

The GTA series is one of those games that attempts to squeeze as much out of a console as possible.

So, if you were expecting it to run at 30fps in 720p without any pop up or frame drops, then you were expecting far too much.

Virgin Media are a CRAP ISP anyway.

Like a lot of their customers (victims) my connection randomly drops out, and is slow as hell on other days. Some days I can't even sign in to PSN, never mind download from the store or play online.

Seriously, if any one is thinking about selecting VM for their broadband needs, don't bother. My line can handle 8Mb, but sometimes I'm reduced to less than 0.5Mb for downloads.

(Disclaimer: Having said that, I hear their *...

I loved it. I thought it was a bit quirky and different, but ultimately good fun as well.

I would love to see a sequel, though sadly I think this will be another empty rumour.

... has rating a video game "M" stopped it from selling?

If anything it means it will sell MORE.

Yes, I agree about the image loading thing.

Tell you what I thought was weird though,

Go in to the store and let it download images, etc. Exit the store and then go back in.

Why does it re-download all the data??? Surely this should be cached on the hard drive..? (And no, it wouldn't take up very much space. A few MBs at most).

Caching that data would make the store even faster.

And PC versions are usually a lot better too(!)

I once read in the editorial that EDGE think that average games should be given an average score - 5, and not 7 as some think.
