I imagine they'll get a mention, but as there's no direct save transfer from it's predecessors, not much chance of us actually seeing the previous PCs

why?

long as it's sufficiently lubricated

You can use a tactical view and pause and give orders, which they showed in the video.

sounds to me like you want them to show you damn near the entire game (minus the story) 3 months before it's even out. Seems like a bit of an unrealistic expectation, no?

psychopaths, by definition, do not have fits of "psychotic rage."

my favorite part about the crusades is that both sides worshipped the same God.

ehhh the sports games thing isn't about keeping fans happy. It's about exclusivity contracts ensuring that EA sports doesn't need to inovate to sell copies, cuz there's no competition.

then I misinterpreted your initial post. When you said "is this all games are now" you meant "is this all gaming promotional shows are now?"

That's why I called it a gore comedy, not a horror comedy.

I misread your initial post as "it would be more cartoonish" not less, thus my confusion. So we're cool on that.

ah, see I don't judge games based on their marketing, cuz all too often the marketing departments don't present on honest representation of the game they're trying to sell.

I'll not touch on the majority of this point, as it's your opinion and that's cool. But I don't get how, in your mind, them reacting realistically (degradation of performance as they sustain injury) would be less cartoonish. That, to me, is like saying that it would be more cartoonish for the latter two thirds of…

no it's not all games are now. It's no different than any form of escapist entertainment.... Ever. The stuff that appeals to the masses will and has always been given more attention than the stuff that's more "high brow." It's why The Coliseum is better remembered than... Wherever the premiere Roman theatre was. But…

that company no longer exists, I'm not sure what you're getting at here.

I get what you're saying, and honestly I don't wholly disagree with it, but the comparison to the sports game model is a weak one. Madden and it's ilk (and call of duty) have a system of putting out the same game every year with only minor incremental "safe" tweaks to the formula; whereas Mortal Kombat, aside from…

this was going to be my point too. Mortal Kombat has it's counterpart in all forms of escapist entertainment. And the Human Centipede does nothing to diminish Citizen Kane.

You know, if/when they ever reintroduce Robin to the nick screen, I could actually see Aaron Paul as a good Jason Todd.

shit I forgot there was a wing suit.

I had never seen or heard of the movie that that was a reference to, but that moment was just as hilarious to me because of how absolutely random it seemed.
