It's true, without solid deals with tons of cable providers, aren't they just proposing that you stick this thing right next to your existing DVR (in the U.S., I mean)?

I'd prefer he just announce that he's CGI. The alternative is way more frightening.

So wait, there are fully live-action sequences, like the bit we saw in the original trailer?

So calling it a TV show is really totally incorrect, right? It's Choose Your Own Adventure.

Right, but the issue Eric is talking about, regarding games being banned, doesn't really apply.

I kinda like the Ace Combat approach, but I don't think it suits every genre or setting. Sometimes you want some specificity.

Ah. That's a bummer.

Wasn't this buggy as hell, though, on release? I was really, really looking forward to it, but the initial reports warned me off.

I hadn't seen the clip, though, which has even more impact. Thanks!

But look...he's in other posts.

His reasoning is reminiscent of Final Fight. You could totally preemptively punch those guys in the face, for the crimes of

You better believe it.

Did you read the post? The most prominent example mentioned is Homefront, in which the Chinese bad guys were changed to N. Koreans.

Hell yeah. I'd be interested in a second civil war FPS, too. It could be troubling and maybe even compelling for U.S. players, and certainly wouldn't piss off the rest of the world (unless, of course, it's all because of some thickly-accented, overly clever, archvillain super-terrorist).

That seems like a legit concern. But I'm guessing no one is really concerned about Iran banning a given game. Why be so timid about an Arab nation as an enemy, so long as you don't always have them in mujahadeen gear?

What about simply presenting characters of a given ethnic descent (the ones associated with the game's hostile force or faction) as being both good and bad? Give the Iraqi translator/intelligence operative a more prominent role in the game, or clearly present Arab-Americans, Chinese-Americans, etc. on the friendly…

That's true, but, in this case, it seems like Ubisoft already did their part (with ZombiU). Do they really want to get burned again?

BEST PRE-ORDER THAT SHIT, SON!

It's been a while, but I think it's more of a choice between one hand, or no hands (below). I could be wrong, though. I can imagine the Chaos dudes having some sort of silly wrassler Titan.

Yo, so the map is in your controller?
