This is pretty amazing. I think people would look at me weird if I went ahead and put this as my wallpaper, but my god is it tempting.

@patrickklepek: Speaking of Mountain Lion, any thoughts on its performance? I'm too worried to pick it up based off the bugginess of my Lion upgrade last summer...

I, too, saw the Blair Witch Project at the young, young age of 12 or 11. To this day, I have some trouble sleeping in tents. I'll still go camping and I'll still have a good time, but when we turn in for the night I'll always spend a solid five minutes planning my escape route if you-know-what happens.

This is a great write up, Patrick. I played up to the Dungeon in Amnesia before leaving to head back to Boston and away from my brother's ridiculously powerful rig. Ever since then, it's been calling back to me. That's exceptionally strange considering I'm hardly a horror fan. Getting scared is one of the more unpleasant reactions, but there's a kind of sadomasochism that's been developing around the memory of something as intense as the door after door water scene or the closet. As you mentioned, it makes you feel alive. I picture it being the video game equivalent of skydiving or bungee jumping, even more so now with it's status as something of an urban legend. Have you played Amnesia? No, but a friend of a friend did, and he hasn't been right since...

I wish my brother hadn't been in the room (Ah, who am I kidding? No I don't). I can't wait to get back home to the Bay Area and fire up Amnesia once more. Hopefully A Machine For Pigs will have launched by then and I'll have yet another chance at ruining my psyche.

Excellent work as always, duder! I completely lost it at the haggard Clippy graphic in the trenchcoat. Perfect touch with his beard!

Really great write-up, Tricky! I gotta get back to Fez. That damn bell tower still haunts me to this day.

If this is anything like the original, I'll lose about two straight weeks to this game. Couldn't be more excited!

Wow, that Anna trailer was surprisingly super fascinating. I'm in, even though it looks like Amnesia's red-headed step-child.

I'm holding out hope for a Cinema Mod. I spent way too much time playing the Max Payne 2 version, and boy was that an excellently gratuitous time.

So does anybody know if the supporting character in the clip is voiced by H. Jon Benjamin (Archer, Coach McGurk)? He sounds exactly like him. It's really bothering/selling me.

A prequel could be nice considering how much they reference Marcus's actions in whatever war they keep talking about throughout the series. Some big Gears set-pieces could be, for lack of a better word, pretty epic. I wonder who'd they be fighting, though. Locust? Humans? Some other enemy?
