All this press talk about RARE is bizarre. They haven't been a relevant developer for a decade.

@usgrovers: That is assuming every Wii U sell is a return customer that bought a Wii and Motion Plus remote. I even bought a launch Wii, but never purchased a Motion Plus remote. So, I had to buy a Motion Plus remote when I bought a Wii U. Also, I hear that a second Wii U gamepad is going to be pretty expensive when they are available.

Just too many moving parts to nail all of that down into a marketing message. What Nintendo needs is killer software and lots of it. In a couple months or so they may be struggling against the reality of new, more powerful systems.

Just looking at the February and March releases is getting me up there. Some I'm interested in; Fire Emblem Awakening, Dead Space 3, Sly Cooper, Metal Gear Rising, Rayman Legends, Tomb Raider, GoW Judgement, BioShock Infinite.

I didn't think this game was all that good. But I rarely agree with the reviews/opinions on Giant Bomb anymore, unless it is Vinny. To be fair I don't agree with a lot of other review sites as well. My tastes are just different than the mainstream games writer these days, it would seem.

I'm more interested in why everyone thinks it's a zombified torso and not a normal chopped up torso. It could just as well be a normal body that was chopped up and put in a collectors edition of Dead Island Riptide. The lack of decomposition makes me think this woman was still a normal human when she was so brutally murdered.

I've obviously put too much thought into this.

I thought the same thing. I mean it is called Zombie Bait Edition. That implies fresh meat, not zombie meat. Zombies only eat the freshest of meats.

Also; sexism... again. Here we go. IMO: Only sexist to those looking for offense; the real issue here is that it is tacky and dumb.

I don't care about any more DLC until the level cap is raised. The story isn't interesting enough without some story progression. Just more Go Shoot This Thing quests don't excite me at all. I played the first DLC with my capped character and found it rather dull. I can't quite put my finger on it, but I liked the first game just for what it was and yet with BL2 I don't really care to play without some sort of progression.

@uniform: I liked Small Wonder, but yeah... I doubt it would hold up now.

I loved Alf as a kid, but man is that not something you can ever go back to. Seriously, if you ever liked that show just keep thinking that and never look back.

Way too early to say at this point. Right now, I assume I'll do what I've always done: get both systems as soon as possible. But with this DRM/RFID and IP talk, I may be waiting for price drops if at all.

I don't see this doing great if it is going to cost $1000 retail, like the model on which it is based.

Finally, now the PS3 can have some time in the spotlight.
