I took a couple of photography classes in college too, except instead of a lab fee, we had to get all our own chemicals along with the film and paper. Two semesters was enough to convince me there's not a chance in hell I'd be doing this anymore with those costs.
I've seen/played this game at a couple of PAX's now. They only had the co-op running and I had no idea there was an adventure mode in it. It's pretty rad.
I went to check out Quiet Man after reading Patrick's tweet. I had a similar reaction, where I needed to talk to someone about how... odd the game is. I got the same "it's 95% cut scenes, 5% gameplay" caveat from the person at the booth. I 100% agree with Jeff's bewildered response. When I asked the demo person how far along in development the game was, she said it was mostly done, so... I'd follow it with morbid curiosity.
@homelessbird: I'm with you on this one. The Google search for "nonplussed" recognizes the "not surprised" definition now, but I haven't learned to let it go yet.
It was so relieving to hear Abby and Alex talk to Dan about how dismissive he is when he talks about the college experience. It really drove me nuts how it sounded like he was bragging about not having to work for his degree, but at least he understands how people can be frustrated with him over that.
