In place of this review I would like God of War 3; not a review of it, just the game.

In the first game the objectivist philosophy was evident in the setting. All of rapture was a testament to its failure. This time there is no environmental synthesis with the new theme and it feels pretty hollow. You don't really see any evidence of collectivism having warped Rapture in a new way.

Nah, The Shadow owns.

If you turn it on without the AV cables plugged in you get a RROD…that freaked me out once.

Sin City's first problem was including multiple stories. Marv's story was the only good Sin City story to begin with. Then it employed the Zack Snyder school of adaptation where you just act out the book as you read through it without regarding how various mediums tell stories differently.

Well, Gigantic did have two good things going for it.

Dear Sir,

New to Zelda

It could be Cherry Pepsi and be a little better than Cherry Coke.
