Main question - is there any reason to play this as the same platform as Phantom Pain? And is there any word yet if this will be included with Phantom Pain in any way?

I honestly expected the article to discuss why games don't cost more. They've been at the $60 price at least since the Xbox 360 came out - don't remember if they cost that much on PS2 and Xbox before that. So with monetary inflation as well as inflation in development costs, it seems that games should actually be more…

I don't know the name of it, but there is an indie game where you play an NPC in an old-school RPG. I'm sure someone else can chime in with a name (if anybody makes it far enough to see this comment... dammit Kinja)

Agreed - Sometimes it's fun to have hoards of idiot enemies. But it sounds fun to have the few but strong enemies. You could offset their tactical advantage by using traps or stronger weapons, but they could still be smart enough to use that 3-1 advantage to quickly kill you in a straight fight.

Totally agree. It's liek do you want an action movie or a thriller? You can have 20 guys in an open room that look like they're trying hard to kill you, but just failing, or you can have one or two guys put up a serious fight. They both can work if you make it convincing, but if you go too far in either direction it…

The problem with smart AI is that it's too powerful. AI that uses successful tactics is great, but unfortunately, they always outnumber you. Your character is tougher, sure, but as a player, you probably don't know how to correctly handle flanking maneuvers as just one guy. Maybe you pick up on the flank, but you then…

I don't normally comment here, but I have to point out how ridiculous this article is. I guess outright lying/speculation is cool as long as it's only in a headline? Or you pin it on "a source" from a tabloid?

I cannot agree more. I want to see a game where a "gunfight" is a slow, tense experience of trying to not be shot. Or where pulling a gun basically means you've screwed up all of your other options and it's now your last resort. Or where firing a shot and missing means one less chance to make it out alive. But most…

I'm fine with guns in games, but I'd love to see a game where a gun carries the same weight it does in the real world. Guns don't need to be fired to be effective. I want to see a game where one bullet going in either direction can escalate or end a conflict and the best solution is to not fire your gun at all. I'm…

I agree - I don't mind guns in games, but I dislike games where they're the only option. I really liked Last of Us and the recent Splinter Cell for the different approaches you can take. Hopefully Watch Dogs lets you hack your way through all (or almost all) of its conflicts if you choose to do so. This kind of choice…

Sorry for not knowing this already - are you supposed to port over a save from Season 1? I played on my laptop and would like to start this on a console instead.

With that Bat uniform too. I love the Michael Keaton yellow on black.

Agreed - I'm mostly tired of the setting. I'd love to see more of the Batfamily, playable or not - but I feel like we've seen more than enough of this area of Gotham. At least change up the season or something.

I've loved all of the Arkham games - yes even Origins, though much much less so - but I really hope this breaks from the format. If it's another snowy city-as-prison game, then I have to ask why bother. Give me a different scheming villain, different season, different setting. Something.

I've always wondered why more stuff like this doesn't exist. Not that a game will teach you fluency, but it's easy to learn the basics in almost any language, yet most fiction relies on made up languages and jargon instead.

McMuffins are amazing. That and the hashbrown surf board thing are the only things anybody should ever eat from McDs.

Look, if you're eating Taco Bell for breakfast, you have a drinking problem.

Oh yes, that. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed it never sees the light of day.

Soul Reaver remains one of my favorite games ever. I'm sure I'd be disappointed if I played it again, but the shifting between planes and acquiring new abilities was awesome in that game.

That wasn't from this movie - that was Batman and Robin which was one of the worst movies ever made. This was Batman Forever, which was only just bad.
