What is X Edge?  I must investigate.....

EDIT: Ok looks like its similar to Namco X Capcom or SRW with a whole bunch of different video game characters together in one game.  I take it this game has no chance in hell of being released over here?  Looks cool though.  I'm currently on a Super Robot Wars kick, playing through SRT:OG2 a second time (new game+) to get the secret stuff I missed the first go round.

Out of your list I'm probably most looking forward to Killzone 2.  I can't think of 10 games at the moment, but off the top of my head I'd say Madworld, Bayonetta, Killzone 2 and Super Robot Wars K.

Yeah, a lot of people still use GS and that's why I post my blogs both here and at GS.  The site redesign was one thing, but the biggest factor was the editorial content change and the mass exodus of several of my favorite writers (3 of which are now at GB).

gunswordfist:  I don't like the redesign of the site and most of my friends came to GB (I was planning on coming here even before it opened).  I also don't care for any of the editorial content on gamespot anymore.

Because I don't like using Gamespot anymore.

Wow!  Those animated comics are really well done.  I just finished reading Watchmen myself.  I didn't feel sorry for the Comedian at all.  I definitely see why you don't like Dr Manhattan though.  We'll have to discuss it further over XBL.

This totally sucks.  I hope everyone lands on their feet and finds an even better job.  1UP Yours and Retronauts will be sorely missed by me.

RIP 1UP and EGM.

I think you're on my friend's list already, but I don't think we've ever played anything together.

Yes, I don't know what I'd do without Transformers:P

I agree about achievements.  At first I thought they were the stupidest things ever invented, because they serve no purpose other than bragging rights.  But when you play a game that gets you a lot of points, you do indeed feel good.  When you play enough games that give you a lot of points you start to get addicted to that feeling.  Eventually you'll get to a point where you will do things in a video game, that you wouldn't normally do.  Like play on a harder difficulty, or finish something in a certain time limit or get a set amount of points.  It can ruin your experience if you take it too far though.  Nowadays I worry about achievements on a 2nd playthru and I just enjoy the game the first time around.  I'll only get achievements if its something that's easily doable.

Maybe you should try Oblivion again now that you have an appreciation for Fallout 3?

You're not the only one.  I've been excited about this game ever since it was announced.
