Please, no. They need to move on to new things.


No, they actually need to finish something they started in 2004. Then they can move on to new things.


?? Episode 2 was released in October 2007. Unless you mean the Half Life 2 story arc. Moving onto other things probably has very little to do with the game not being out yet, as it's common for game development companies to have more than one team.


Yes, I was most definitely insinuating the Half Life 2 story arc. Episode 3 should be their main concern now. Even Yahtzee stated in his Left 4 Dead 2 review that they need to do something about EP3.

and done...ok, the first 4 acts may have been kind of easy for insane difficulty but they sure beefed up the difficulty in act 5. The friggin reavers on the train gave me a headache, hehe. They didn't stop coming and coming. But oh well, got it done anyways.
Maybe I'll actually finally continue playing AC2. I don't know why I have not played it that much yet. It does seem to be awesome. But I guess I'm more into sniping and silenced guns when it comes to stealth, heh.

Sounds like someone is waiting for Splinter Cell Conviction ;)

LMAO, Yahtzee used my comment in his article this week:

I've been heavily addicted to Batman Arkham Asylum for the last 2 weeks. Really awesome game. Graphics are solid and the gameplay and story is great too.

Reminds me a little of Metroid having to run back and forth to different areas. After I've finished Batman I think I'll get back into Borderlands.

I have finished Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 1 & 2. Both were AWESOME and EXTREMELY GREAT.
After finishing them I started Lost Planet, but it sucks.
I bought Medal of Honor: Airborne, but I don't like the old days anymore, after thermal scopes and heavy artillery rolling down the nowadays' sub-urb streets.
Then I bought Tom Clancy's Endwar, but I suck at overlording. Yes, I made a word.
So now I am without a good game to play before I can get my hands on Assassin's Creed 2 and Bioshock 2.

Help a girl out here.

...because they are both females with glasses? I see no resemblance beyond that.

I do want to pick up Bayonetta here soon though, because I'm a Devil May Cry fan and I've heard good things. But it'll have to wait until I finish Uncharted 2. 8)

I can't help but feel she looks like a cross-dressing super star. A successful one, but still...

I saw some where online they compared Bayonetta to Tina Fey...but in the end Tina Fey and Sarah Palin already look too much alike.

Bayonetta's demo was fun, but it was basically Devil May Cry all over again.

Seeing videos for Darksiders, I doubt I'll buy it. Yet another God of War style game. How many do we have flooding the market lately? March needs to roll around fast so God of War can say "Hey look, we still do it the best!"

Dark Void's demo was interesting, cool concepts and nice level design, just pulled off rather poorly in my opinion.

Played through Mirror's Edge again out of boredom of MW2 and had a lot of fun with it. Probably picking up Burnout Paradise today since it's cheap and the demo entertained me. Just need something to keep me busy until the 26th.

played Assassin's Creed 2 again. It is a good game but the controls sometimes piss me off. In combat when there's lots of enemies you 'have to' kill then Enzio sometimes does what he wants and not what I want and the parkour elements are cool and all that but when you have to be fast then it sometimes happens rather easily to jump anywhere but where you want. Other than that I do like it more and more. I just don't think yet that I'll become an AC fan.
And I'm still having lots of fun with New Super Mario Bros. on the Wii. I'm not necessarily good at it but it's fun and takes me back to the old NES and SNES days.

Tis what it's it's meant for ein freund.

As for Bayonetta, my entirely fabulous (read: male ballet dancer) roommate has been playing it, and I can honestly say it's pretty great.

A little over the top ridiculous, but far more smooth in play than Devil May Cry ever was or could hope to be, also without any of the pretense that Devil May Cry could on some weird level be considered a serious narrative by silly people. Bayonetta delivers as probably the first great game of 2010.

I was bored in college the other day so I made a small shopping list of games to anticipate this year and my wallet has been in hiding since. TOO MANY NICE THINGS.

I wholeheartedly agree. It's funny that 15+ years later I still sit here and play 2D jump 'n' run games :D
And I beat Super Mario Bros on the Wii today. Well, sort of. Of course there's still the 9th world but I don't think I'll get all the starcoins I'd need to accomplish anything in that world!
