Which is why we made sure our promo pics looked like a screencap of robot bukkake porn.
Seriously. This news does nothing other than make me think this game might not be the work of art I hoped for and instead will be another soulless cash grab.
Wish I hadn't already played this. One of my favourite games of all time and that's not just nostalgia talking as I hadn't even played it until I pirated it around 2005 (hey, I was a different person back then). Most of the puzzles are a little too obscure but the story and the atmosphere is unbelievable. You'll really feel like you've been on a journey by the time you finish it. Even thinking back on it now tugs the ol' heart strings a little.

Just finished and as I thought, absolutely amazing finale. I knew I would love it by the end. A daring choice to separate the action and the dialogue sections so clearly but I loved it. I honestly can't believe the quality of writing and direction of this series and of Telltale's The Walking dead. I'm used to expecting less from games in the writing department than I do from any other medium but I really don't know if I've seen a movie or TV show in years that comes close ...
I'm only twenty minutes in and the writing has been as amazing as ever, however I have already had three QuickTime events fail despite the fact that I absolutely pressed the button on time (and I'm not just rage quitting because I got enough right that it didn't effect the overall sequence at all. I just know for a fact I hit those button prompts) and most annoyingly some jarring story moments and lack of ability to choose my own path.
-spoilers for the first two ...
No wonder he delivered the entire thing with the thousand yard stare of a child killer.
I just hope the story is as well written, open and immersive as the first game. I'm hoping it will be a real RPG about inhabiting a role and interacting with a believable world full of interesting characters and so far I'm not convinced this is anything other than the kind of cliche third person action game Bioware have been making for a while now.
Yup, none at all.
A naked woman?!!?? What kind of Virgin loser would be interested in such a thing? See, I do so well with the ladies that even seeing the naked female form in a picture is a waste of my time. Such a waste of my time that I'm going to type out a comment on the Internet and let everyone know that this is not important to me.
The five minutes goofing around to make this is time that was tragically wasted, you should've been working on more important things!!! Besides hard...
Belated thanks for the bubble. At least there are still some of us classic Simpsons nerds out there.
If I had any writing talent this is the exact review I would've written for this game.
Maybe your standards are too high.
Rapelay.
I really really wish I wouldn't have played this and GTA5 on PS3, I can't imagine how great it'll be for people playing them first time through on Current gen systems, but I know I couldn't have waited even if I knew these remasters were coming (which I kinda did to be honest).
I really like that this game is based upon real oldschool sci-fi rather than the Star Wars Space Opera stuff we usually get in games. The art style of everything we've seen even looks like the cover of a 70's Science fiction novel.
I've been considering this for a while, I think at the least I'm going to try and find a secondhand Wii somewhere with the Super Mario galaxy games. I've criticised Nintendo for just doing the same cutesy Mario and Zelda games over and over but now it looks like most of what's coming from everyone else is gonna be the same cheesy 'badass' adolescent grey crap over and over I think I would rather play something with a little more Joy and Fun to it.
Cheeseball artless Michael Bay nonsense sold on a gimmick that the rubes will buy into then wonder why gaming just doesn't seem as exciting anymore. Bah, who even cares anymore. Let's reprint Tolkien's books with a badass picture of Vin Deisel carrying a shotgun on and a huge sticker advertising the innovative new stain resistant pages it's printed on. Because who cares about actually experiencing an interesting and inspiring adventure? That's lame. It's all about the ...
There ya go, exaggeration for comedic effect, now you're getting it.
Don't you dare even think about Half-life, Ubisoft. Half-life is the epitome of heart and soul in the medium of gaming, it goes without saying it has nothing to do with you. If I find out you evil soulless monsters had anything to do with Half-life, even as little as buying a cup of coffee for an overworked Valve employee or allowing one of your generic borefests to be placed beside an old copy of the Orange box in a run down secondhand store somewhere I will personally.... Well, I won...
I can't believe the servile attitude of 'Stop complaining. Gamers are too entitled these days' that seems prevalent here recently. I can't think it comes from anyone who has been playing games for even five years.
You might not believe it people but games used to actually be exciting. They used to be made with passion by people interested in creating great experiences for others. I'm not just talking about cheap Indie games with retro 8bit graphics here eithe...
