Someone clearly has too much time on their hands......

I'll take your word for it :) Starting at 00:44/45. Looks like Samus to me. Regardless, me likey!! :)

Whoa. The ass and thighs of Samus have NEVER looked better!! That's worth the price of having to listen to that damn song!

That's crazy talk!

That's a well and good. But why censor the porn?

LOL! Good one!

Funny paradox here: I LOVED HL1 and 2 (and it's episodes) and Alex wants my man-parts, no doubt. One thing I hate is when developers milk a franchise within an inch of it's life, ala Guitar Hero, etc. One thing I'm finding I also hate is when developers do not sufficiently milk a franchise!

Good point. I didn't say that ME wasn't derivative. But, ME fits my "raised on the original Star Wars" brainwashing to a T! You see, I'm a 40 yr old gamer :)

Not Thor, Beowulf.

Well, for starters, I was not an RPG fan until Mass Effect converted me. I now tend to judge all RPG's vs. ME1. (ME2 was half the game that ME1 was, IMO.) ME grabbed me right off and never let go. I LOVED the story!

Bought it on release night. After 4 hours in, I shut it down and never played it again. As much as I wanted to like this game, I just could NOT get into it......

I do love me some COD multiplayer. MW3 not as much as Black Ops. But, MW3 is OK. One thing which goes WAY back with me and COD is my anger about how the baddest weapon in a war is a freakin' knife! You round a corner, I pump 8 rounds in your neck and chest with an assault rifle, you walk through said rounds to stab me…

That's because it was the size of a Yukon and didn't have the cooling issues that the 360 had.

I'm kinda torn here. The whole wheat side of me says that with MS in such a command of this generation, we're looking at 2013 at the earliest before it would feel compelled to release a new system - WiiU or no WiiU. But, the frosted side reminds me of how MS got to be in first DESPITE their hardware, not because of…

Meh, Kratos could pull it off, too!!!

I got the hardened edition - primarily for the steelbook case. Have been playing the SpecOps and Campaign. Will get around to - and then totally immerse - in the hardcore team deathmatch after I'm done with those. I really like the campaign so far - much better story than 2, which I didn't care for that much.

"auspicious"

I'm fairly confident that people with resumes like his don't get "laid off". They quit and start their own company. Or, they get fired because they were caught in the planning stage of quitting and starting their own company.

"Or that effing ice monster from the second game."
