It's also Treyarch, so no

I'm still watching it, and it still has it's moments for me. However, I do think that if it had ended with the previous season (5) that would have been great. Sure, the start of this current season was interesting, but now it's just gone back to it's old formula, pretty much.

" Conviction is more like the good 24 than 24 is now. Notice that? "

I thought the choice was redundant too, but I see it a little differently; I don't see why Sam would spare him, or why anyone would for that matter. Sam has been killing people for years most of whom did far less than what Reed had done.
 
Take Reeds goons for instance, he drops them without even thinking. Why would he even second guess killing the man who not only tried to kill the president but had also been the cause of Sam's pain for the last three years?
 
I did both actions, shooting him first, but it seemed to me that "sparing" him what the developers prefered; you get more dialog and Sam seems to more satisfied with that outcome.
 
As for the Co-Op ending, I thought that while the story was a bit obvious and cheesy, the actual gameplay was fantasic.

Seen it twice. I love it.
Big Daddy and Hit Girl are incredible.
I felt that Nicolas Cage was back to his Face Off/Con Air/The Rock coolness, which was a joy for me.

In UK it's only £3 more than the standard. So that seems like a dead cert to me.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure. I got the disc (for 360) and it never asked about the original. I think it must be based on save data.

When you say you got it for $35, was it on sale? I got the first when it was on sale for £25 and bought the expansion for the same price.
I don't have a problem with the price at all. If awakening is 20 odd hours then I think that's great value for money, better than most games. I mean sure technically I'm not getting the same value that I did from the first game, but I had already made a £15 saving in the first place.

Is it just me or are some of the textures in this expansion really bad? I mean, I know Dragon Age isn't the best looking game and that the PC version is superior, but I don't remember textures being so bad in the original.
For example, the display suits of armour behind the armour merchant in the Keeps Courtyard; it's horrible. It looks like the texture is about to pop in but never does.
Other things that stood out are some characters weapons that you see close up while talking with them.
I suppose I could go back to the original to check, but was just curious to see if anyone else had thought the same.

I saw the trilogy backwards, so that was kinda wierd, thanks Dad.
