SO glad I followed another commenter's advice and bought Anno 2070 instead of this garbage...

Christmas lights! That's so awesome...

Dang... when Snake has all of a sudden become 2x or 3x more bulletproof than the characters in a GTA game, you have to wonder if somebody's priorities have been screwed up.

Hmmm....

Wetter. Snake certainly looks wetter than ever.

With that in mind, you'd think a simple way around this whole sneaking situation would be
*knock out guard*

I think it was around $250 Million...

If Mechwarrior Online is out of open Beta, does that mean they've added any introductory segments to the game? I tried the beta on a couple occasions and had the hardest time finding my way around the mech garage...

Damn fine article!

I've read some of Kotaku's editorials on the scourge of review scores in the past (and seen the sense in the argument); but this was the first one that really hooked me and elicited a pronounced reaction. The case that's made not just for the negative effect numerical scores have on video game…

I bought the game on a Kotaku commenter's recommendation during a discussion of the epic failure of the new Sim City. Wasn't sure what to expect with Anno 2070, and I was a bit leery of the unpleasant Ubisoft DRM, but the game ended up being a…

Heh... I can practically hear Valve's servers groaning under all the attention. Their website was unavailable altogether for the last half hour.

Sweet. I'm glad to hear that you think the campaign is better, since that's probably where I'll be spending most of my time.
