Honestly, I'd like to see some retro games getting the "HD" treatment. I would love to play Super Metroid or ALttP(and many others) in widescreen and upscaled graphics(super mario all-stars style).

You struck gold my friend. If your wife's birthday is today that means you only have to celebrate it once every four years.

Are you talking about the original Alan Wake? because there is a sequel and it's out now, it's Alan Wake: American Nightmare.

Thank you, captain obvious.

Judging by the first sentence I'd guess that Mr. Plunkett has a white iPhone.

You don't consider SNES retro? What is retro then?

I completely agree with you meancheez. I've had gamefly for quite a long time as well and I think it's totally worth it. I'd have to keep a game for more than 3 months in order for it to cost actually more for the service than the game in question.

I'm currently on a retro gaming binge. I just beat A Link to the Past this weekend and started Donkey Kong Country 2.

That's weird, I've had my x41's (wireless) for over a year now and have had no problems at all. The sometimes stop working but admittedly I just give them a quick smack and the power back on.

No, they don't actually. That's the multiplayer that they do that. I'm talking about the single player. It's the same exact engine as the old halo campaign hence why you can simply switch to the old graphics without issues.

I see where you're coming from but I still wouldn't say that it was something innovative. Which was what benjamin three was trying to say by saying we didn't see those games coming.

I would call Halo: Anniversary an HD remake. That's about the only one I can think of that's truly an HD remake.

Uncharted? among Ico and Portal? what's so new and innovative about the uncharted series?

Uncle Jesse, you're in for a treat sir. I can only imagine how awesome it would be if I had never played either of those games and now get to play them for the first time in HD.

"That doesn’t mean that any game needs a story, but is easier to accept bad gameplay when it comes with a good story, than a bad story with a good gameplay."

As long as the game doesn't become another Duke Nukem fiasco then I don't care who helps finish the game. I just want to play this game sometime this year.

I think it's the latter. If you were ashamed to have those pillows with you (and you should be) wouldn't you think he would have gotten them delivered to his house rather than sitting on a train hugging them?

Everyone seems to forget about Bioshock: Infinite. Which I think looks like the best game coming out this year.

Baby steps, my friend, baby steps.

It's all relative to your perception of time. Some might see a year or two, close. Some might see it as very distant.
