Few people are going to be able to survive in an world ending event. You have to be of a certain mindset to survive in that kind of a situation and most people will end up being grist for the mill. Nobody knows how a power plant works or how to make nails. There are so few people out there that have the kind of knowledge that would be needed to rebuild society and many of them will have been killed. Basic survival would become paramount. Who actually knows how to make a trap for wild game...

I can't speak for anyone else. I don't think I'm spoiled at all.

I don't expect the moon people, I expect to get what I pay for. I don't expect to be gouged. I don't expect to have a game I pay for be broken up with DLC that they intentionally take away from the main product and introduce it later on. I think that's wrong.

I don't necessarily care if a game is not the best most cutting edge visually. I want a complete exp...

I hope the story is a little meater, as well.

Regardless, I'm looking forward to this and I'm glad to see a first time struggling developer able to break out and be successful.

Seems like a good guy with a good company philosphy. Of course, that kind of corporate philosphy usually only works in smaller studios.

I'm cautiously optimistic about this game. I think we might have a sleeper hit on our hands, but we'll see.

How about people that paid for the damn thing get to experience Flash. Your closed off policy is lame, even if I like some of your products.

Figure it out.

This movie trailer looks suprisingly good. It created an emotional impact and looked visually impressive. I'm curious to see how this turns out.

Plus, Freeman looks like one badass nerd.

No, a game does not need to have multiplayer aspects in order to be successful. However, some people do enjoy that aspect of gaming. I'm not generally one of them, but just because I don't like multiplayer, doesn't mean it shouldn't exist. I do, however, feel that it gets too much attention as it is. You need to think about what makes a game fun and an enjoyable experience. Some games just don't need multiplayer. While some thrive with it.

I would m...

That's just it. Depending on the generation at the time you are purchasing, this will indicate which is better for you, based on price to performance ratio. Some cards have much better longevity, as well. Sometimes that card is an Nvidia card and sometimes it's an ATI card. It depends on the price at the time and what it can do for its price point.

Just like Intel Vs. AMD

I've owned both chips at various times in my life and sometimes Inte...

Man, with all the jizzing and jaw dropping, I would hate to think about the aftermath...

But seriously, that was pretty impressive. That really looked like real rain hitting a windshield at high speeds. It's very cool. It's too bad the video quality wasn't better.

If they can come out with games that appeal to the 'hardcore' gamer (whatever that actually means), then yes, sure.

I think the same could be said for Kinect, as well. Although, with Kinect, they would probably have to introduce a handheld device for additional controls.

Who knows what will happen. Anything is possible. The first round of games are meant to be introductory products to showcase the abilities. Once that's out of the way, mor...

I've owned cards from both companies. The TNT2 series lasted a long time and was very competitive. The Radeon X850 was a beast. I currently have a Nvidia 8800GTS 512 (G92) and it still kicks a good amount of ass, even to this day. I'm overall very happy with Nvidia, but both solutions have their positives.

In my opinion, this thing is a waste of money. You would spend far less and be just as happy - if not more- by owning a gaming PC and an Xbox separately.

My god this thing costs like $7,000 for the base model and $14,000 with all the 'upgrades'. This is absurd. Go and build your own for about $1000.00 (including the price of an Xbox)

Man, I'm looking forward to this. I know some people are giving this game a hard time, but really there is nothing wrong with more of a good thing. I'm not sure how you can be upset with something that offers more content from some of the original makers of the series. It has minor graphical improvements and numerous game mechanic improvements. Plus as much content as Fallout 3. This seems like a great thing to me.

Viva Fallout: New Vegas.

Whatever happens, I think both the PSP2 and the 3DS will be great additions to gaming. I'm really looking forward to seeing what comes of both platforms and what they both have to offer.

I have been a long time fan of the Elder Scrolls series, since their release of Arena and Daggerfall. I remember spending night after night staying up way past my bedtime playing Daggerfall. It was truly ahead of its time.

I look forward to many more years.

The 3DS is a very impressive handheld. This could mean another 6+ years of Nintendo portable dominance.

Agreed. That's pretty much the way it is.

The rising cost of game development is the biggest problem the game makers face now, not used games or piracy.

It takes 100+ people, 4 to 6 years and 50+ million dollars to make what they call a 'Triple A Title'. They have to realize that this trend must stop and streamline their development pipelines, like any other company or industry would.

The End.

"Typical American view."

Huh? Please explain how this is true and not just incredibly elitist.

Otherwise, I agree. I never bought or so much as played 1 second of Modern Warfare 2 and I'm fine with that.
