Avalanche Engine for JC2 was phenomenal. Going from snowtopped mountains and transitioning effortlessly to desert plains and then to dense jungle was awesome. JC2 isn't a graphic powerhouse compared to other games and engines this gen but it did what it did so well and looked so seamless that it has to be my favorite among this list. And the open world gameplay helped a lot too, fighting off badguys on top of maintain fortresses and then taking a helicopter out to parachute down to the ju...
Assassin's Creed was just awesome to look at.
Fallout 3 was ugly and desolate but that's what made it great.
"Nintendo Dominates US Sales"
Well thank captain obvious for that tidbit.
I don't think Nintendo will slow down enough for the other consoles to catch up.
I like your review :) Actually this is the first DA:O review I have ever read.
Got your site on RSS now. Keep it up.
No sir, you need to learn to use the reply button.. lol.

Ok well maybe 3 was an exaggeration. But compared to the countless number of games that use city and jungle the Wild West is different. And There are few western open-world games where you are free to move from one mission to another. GUN did that and gave the player a sense of freedom to go wherever you want to, do whatever you want and to, shoot whatever you want.
Oh.. and Oregon Trail is not what that people think of when they hear Wild West. The gunslinging ranger that r...
They might just be testing performance on Mac with a freebie. But knowing Valve they'll soon have a patch to smooth things over a little bit.
Aww dang like GTAIV Rockstar could have made full use of PC's superior technolo....... OOOHHH WAAAIIITTT that games was crap on PC.
Good job on the port there Rockstar.
Wait.. what western games? There are like... 3 of them, lol.
Western is a nice change of scenery from the modern, urban, and jungle that a lot of games are using this gen.
Yay! I get regurgitated and unbalanced multiplayer - IN SPACE!!
Yeah the folks at GI are awesome. They always put in little touches that makes it humorous and fun to read. And for the most part they aren't biased at all unlike a lot of mags that cater to only one system. GI covers it all and is one of the best. Plus they get a lot of awesome exclusives and firsts.
I don't shop at Gamestop but I subscribed to GameInformer.
iD? One of the most influential developers of all time? The creators of classic and revolutionary games like Wolfenstein and Doom? The developer of Quake, the FPS game that put online multiplayer on the map?
Yeah, I can see why this game is going to suck.
Did you see that video I posted in Random to Phil? He said he'd try Chrome just because of that video :D.
Looks like somebody ran out of ideas over at Mozilla...
You speak of Mario, Zelda, and Metroid like it's a bad thing.. I'm sure if Nintendo revealed a big game from any one of those that we don't know about it would bring the roof down on E3 and be bigger than anything MS and Sony could come up with.
Wait.. FOOTball?
Americans are so silly.
Likin the purple.
lol I love how the Wii HD in the article just has "HD" photoshopped onto the side of a regular Wii.
Tilt-shift is awesome.
