I still think all three of the Raimi Spiderman movies are great. Sure the third made some mis-steps but Thomas Haden Church's Sandman is more than worth the investment imo. And yeah, Hellboy's pretty great.

I also still enjoy watching Sin City, Watchmen and Dredd.

Anyone watch Darkman recently? I occasionally think about it, recall enjoying it, and wonder how it holds up.

Red Dead (aka: Rockstar branded western) by far.

This is definitely the type of game where it could turn out to be way better to play than it looks... but it does not look good.

I assumed the narrative was basically "Collect 10 Bear Asses".

Easier said then done :) I hit this wall about five years ago. I feel like it took me about three years to ween myself down. I still probably buy two games for every one that I should, but it's progress.

Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to go back to staring at the store page for Overwatch.

Years ago I would've said yes but at this point it should be clear to users that it's purely entertainment, so no.

@zombie2011: Again, a bit of an overstatement, but iteration is tantamount to testing. I didn't really mean to imply that Blizzard was special in this regard.

But I do believe Bungie is actually one of the better companies for this and yeah... I do believe Bungie aggregated significant experience and data that inspired the development of Destiny and aided in Activision's decision to support it.

So all over the place these days. Some weeks 0, some weeks 20.

The more interesting thing for me is that in the last 10 years I've played almost no multiplayer. In the last 10 months I've played very little but multiplayer.

@bigsocrates: That's fair. You could replace "Blizzard" with "Any good developer" in my original post but I still feel like Blizzard as a history of learning and using said lessons better than most.

I could understand this complaint if it was Apple, Google or Microsoft. But c'mon, we're talking about our friendly Main Street Mom n' Pop Sony, I think we can cut them a little slack... again.

Full disclosure: I do occasionally brag about my 100%s on Crash 1/2/3 and Jak 1/2/3 to let my friends know who the real ND fan is.
