@TheHT: Also you are missing the point, higher prices are bad for everyone. It pushes health insurance further away from people who already couldnt afford it, and out of the reach of people who spared enough for it before.

So peoples (obese) lifestyles, in most cases, are stopping the needy from protection from medical procedures. Get it?

People who genuinely cannot physically lose weight for some reason are obviously excluded from this equation.

So, @DoctorWelch: how does one person being fat affect others? How does a society with fat people affect the non-fat people in that society?

@TheHT: In my country it works through the taxes that everyone pays. Indirectly you are paying for the concequences of people being obese. This occurs on a greater scale in other, more social economies that are not America.

Also money you spend on insurance is affected by the prevalance of incidents involving obese people to some extent. But the affect that has is not easily measurable due to the general variance and other dodgy things that go on at an insurance company.

I thought the ending was great, how else do you resolve such a series? They get off the island and are happy and all get married except Ben because he's evil so he goes to jail and they throw a parade?

Actually that would have been awesome. We should sign a petittion.

@Animasta: Deus Ex does the whole experience better is what I was getting at, they both have similarly terrible gunplay and melee.

To see another game make practically the same error of design ~10 years later is pretty astounding actually.

@Animasta: I'm not saying the game is dumber, it's actually more complex. It's just an objectively worse game.

And yeah you're right in that it is unique and that's the draw, I had fun in it before I could no longer look past the bugs, the terrible UI, the lack of direction, average graphics, and bad storytelling.

Not to mention the terrible gunplay and even worse melee. There is just a great level of unpolishedness which is why I couldn't recommend anyone buy this game.

If this game is better than Deus Ex then Saints Row 3 is better than GTA IV.

In other words there is really no comparison and I've made a pointless analogy.

To summarise, this game is terrible and you shouldn't buy it.

Considering the beta was a glorified demo, you should be surprised that only a month later the code is still broken and needed a day one patch.
