  • I have to disagree with those who said Dragon Age.  It's one of the deepest gaming experiences I've had this year, and the visuals are actually quite great on my mid-level PC.    I would have to say either Borderlands or Batman: Arkham Asylum.  I was expecting a lot more from the Arkham setting, and the bland boss encounters just ruined it for me.  I thought that the storyline was a ...

    @Willy105:   There wouldn't be these dangers if we equipped youngsters with knowledge, which is a significant threat to any sort of dogma.  Instead of keeping them in the dark, it's critical to educate others on how to handle these situations by enlightening them about the bodily structure of human beings, safe protection methods, etc instead of relying on the "it's icky, so remain ignorant" answer.  Nothing is being advertised as ...

  • My current considerations are:  Uncharted 2 Dragon Age:  Origins Shadow Complex  I played Arkham Asylum, but I didn't really like it.  Dini's storyline was pretty uninteresting, the boss battles were generally mediocre, the detective bits were style over any challenging substance, etc.  Decent game, but not GOTY material for me.

    I think this will be Rocksteady's breakout game.  Urban Chaos was quite fun (IMO, of course), and they now have upgraded resources, Paul Dini writing the script, etc.  I mean, a lot of developers make so-so games once in a while, and then they make something brilliant.

    In fact, I'm looking forward to this more than Modern Warfare 2.  The graphics look sweet, it has the chance to be an awesome Batman game, the original voice actors are back, and every preview I've read has been very positive.

    Why?  I'd say a 9/10.A recent preview said it reminded them of the Chronicles of Riddick game...on crack.  With more features.

    Played it last week.  Definitely wasn't a generic brawler.  It was quite amazing.Also, the OP hasn't done his research.  This game also has detective elements, stealth, etc.  Not just brawling.

  • ^Why?  Previews have been incredible thus far.  Even Eurogamer said they wanted to desperately play more.I played the demo last week and loved every minute of it.I'm looking forward to this game more than Modern Warfare 2.  I'd rather have a great Batman game for once than another CoD game.

  • Lol at the guy with sour grapes saying this game will probably suck.  I'm sorry, but nearly every preview has been very enthusiastic.  This is my most anticipated game of the year, and I finally got to play the GameStop demo last week.  It was seriously awesome.

  • Hm.  I didn't know about that.  I don't think I'm "bashing" them without justification, though.  They have some pretty lackluster mods that invoke the ToS when the thread didn't even deal with providing links.

  • I was suspended indefinitely today from GameSpot.  Why?  Because I supposedly encouraged illegal activities.  I was discussing the upcoming DC of Watchmen, which I was able to see early.  In the thread, I did not submit any links.  I only offered to answer questions about the movie only...and yet I was suspended for providing illegal links, when I never even did that?I'm done with GameSpot.

  • Also, has anyone ever noticed that government-sanctioned prohibition on a social level generally fails, and in fact succeeds in increasing support for certain social issues?  The Prohibitions of the past only encouraged finding new ways to bypass the social dictation of a hungry government.

  • I think the Republicans didn't do enough when they had Bush and Congress before 2006.  I simply believe that it will become a power game between the two parties.  One party wins, the other party demonizes them until the next election, and it continues.  We need a viable third party.

  • I see what you mean.  There are a few complexities.  If you live together with your partner, and there are deaths or a divorce, a settlement must be made to sort out who receives what.  How would the legality behind this hold up if we didn't have some sort of legal contract to confirm that the two individuals did indeed have a relationship that would qualify them for a piece ...
