I'll agree that ME2 had some better mechanics than ME1 and one of the best opening sequences ever. In contrast, until I finished ME3 I thought ME2 had a terrible ending. Looking back now, it still isn't great, but it is in no way as terrible as the writing in ME3. The quality of the writing and the story itself is a huge component for my choosing ME1 as the best. ME1 had the terrible Mako missions and the clunky inventory, but overall I liked it far more than the other two.
Some really overly aggressive Europeans in this thread. I don't even care about the availability thing, since I own the PSOne games I want on their original disks already, but can't say I've ever cheered at another country not getting access to a game.
Some european users with a sense of humour you mean. This is a little taste of what it feels like to be in the EU market a lot of the time. Take it with good grace, you still get a much better deal over all.
No, I'm pretty sure I meant what I said. Like I said, I don't really have a stake in Sony's incompetence to serve both markets as I bought those games a long time ago. Some of those comments may be written as jokes (and if so whatever), but a lot of them come off as angry. It doesn't make sense to have a go at US consumers, who have no power over the situation, instead of Sony and the publishers.

Great article about one of the most compelling story driven games in recent years. I'm a big fan of The Walking Dead and this series is -by a wide margin - the best use of the comic franchise. Really looking forward to Part 2 of this article and to tomorrow's Episode 3.
Jeff's dismissal of a long game is a bummer. I get it, but that doesn't leave much hope for any other coverage of similar types of games. P4G is kind of a know quantity in terms of a review though. I mean, Jeff and Vinny really like the original and this is just a remake for a portable system, so I'd say we know how they feel.
I also find it sad that people feel guilty for asking the staff about Persona coverage. Again, it is something I understand, but it is a shame nonetheless.
No, it is too expensive. Also, I learned that Square was no longer able to make a decent FF game after playing both FFIV: The After Years and FFXIII. Can't fool me a third time!
These are the ones I'm most excited about, but the gap between Borderlands 2 and the rest is pretty huge. I'm curious about how Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Far Cry 3, and Halo 4 turn out. Halo, unlike the others, is a series I've always tried to get into but never can. The others, I seem to like much more easily.
