    I was reading the Wiki for this game and discovered the problem with video game solutions to a future apocalyptic event. I quote:

    In a future setting wracked by disease and the downfall of civilization due to man's hubris and inhumanity to man, players work together to shoot people

    Buh-Bye, Civilization!

    That's actually pure writing gold. Whoever wrote that wiki entry should be given a medal.

    Full agreement here. Don't change a thing. That's perfect! :)

    Also, "Inhumanity to Man" sounds like a great band name.

    I suspect I'm being a spoilsport but "inhumanity to man" is a line from Saints Row The Third. Though that might make it better.

    See below.

    ... Stupid Robert Burns.

    Uhhh, lol.

    "The phrase 'Man's inhumanity to man' is first documented in the Robert Burns poem called Man was made to mourn: A Dirge in 1784. It is possible that Burns reworded a similar quote from Samuel von Pufendorf who in 1673 wrote, 'More inhumanity has been done by man himself than any other of nature's causes.'"

    Does anyone actually know what the story is going to be about? (I've been off the site for a long time and away from video games, so pardon me asking). n.n

    I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if/when the world goes to shit anarchy ensues, but I'm sure we wouldn't be fighting over who has the best pair of pants.
