@Outrider: You're assuming the people who make these decisions actually did look at Uncharted. I'm not sure they did.

Aaaand out the window goes my interest in the movie...

@nerve11: Quite the contrary, Kinect games prove the point: sure, there's a whole lot of 'em, but sheer numbers do not a good line-up make.

@HookedOnPwnics: Agreed. Or better yet, just remove the comment altogether from the PS3 guide, because a new owner shouldn't give a damn whether the 2010 holiday line-up is strong or weak: by the time they're done playing through all the great games already available on either console, we'll be talking about the 2012 h…

@MightyMonk: "And the "hardcore" gamers that declare Kinect a thing for kids [...] need to get out from inside their own arseholes."

@DukeOfPwn: I hear you. I cannot fucking believe some of these comments. I was expecting to see people commend CD Projekt for not using DRM, but nooooo... It's just one moronic "you won't catch me, neener-neener!" statement after the other, interspersed with the usual attempts at legitimising piracy.

@ligaa9mm: Ha-ha! That's the funniest thing I've heard all day. Thanks for the laugh. xD

Excellent news, even though it makes no sense that this isn't on Steam.

@michaelthegreat: On the hand of the six-fingered GTA hooker.

@MrNose - FOR THE CHICKEN!!!: Aw, why would you lose credibility? It doesn't sound any weirder than a dude turning into a cockroach. ;)

@Xucuroz: That's an interesting point. I can see Kotick wanting to create the WoW of FPS, but there's a reason there are no big subscription-based MMOFPS out there. The very properties of genre make it an incredibly tough sell, so you're right, I doubt it would sell as well.

@PulpZero: It does suck, yes. And that's what I was trying to say: many authors try their hand at the "terse, dry staccato prose" thing (especially in genre fiction) but only the truly great ones can pull it off naturally, without sounding like they're trying too hard to set themselves apart or achieve some…

I'm sorry but I don't think I could take a few hundred pages of this writing. It's either trite and tumid metaphors or failed attempts at terseness (which, to be fair, is one of the hardest things to pull off for any writer). Cormac McCarthy can do terse. Ellroy can do terse. Based on this excerpt, Greg Bear can't.

@dowingba: "I Didn't Have Sexual Relations With This Book."

@bkld18: You should sell it as an ebook. It's gold, I tell ya, gold!

@ligaa9mm: Can I play as a zombie, please?

Wow! That's great! I am beside myself with happiness!

@Tyrunn: Oh, to laugh while holding back tears... good comment, Internet person, good comment. :)

@Kamatari +: And to you I reply... I reply... Damnit! I yield to your superior vocabulary.

@Seu: I say "yup" to your "meh".
