@ShaggE: Restarreded: While that's generally true, by gaming I mean "hardcore gaming." The iPad definitely doesn't qualify, at least not yet. The day may come, but if it does. it won't be for a while.

@Nero: thanks... Its not that it irritates me (hell, I'm getting one), but I don't think it belongs on a gaming site...

@SupaS: That seems like a valid explanation, tbh...

@RoboticSpacePenguin: Marketshare is, here at least, less important than the ability to play good, hardcore games...

@ShaggE: Restarreded: Sorry, I should have specified: I meant a GOOD platform, with good games. To the best of my admittedly limited awareness, the only good games in the app store are FF1&2... Which I've played many, many times on many consoles...

@Nero: I wish I knew there was one... Must have missed that post... Thanks...

@WEGGLES90: And those are, indeed, the only good games for it... But I've played FF1 on at least 3 different platforms, all of which rank as superior to the iPad (for gaming, at least)...

why is this on Kotaku? The iPad is not a gaming platform, and never will be...

This is either absolutely nothing or a tease for the Halo movie. It won't be another game, because H4 would kill Reach.

@Andy Kohnen: That's logical, I guess... But I can't believe that Gears 3 will feature Uncharted 1's first level instead of the depression-inducing catacombs the series is known for...

@fatheadwilson: I can't help but think that Epic was... shall we say "influenced" by Uncharted...

Those look more like Uncharted than Gears... Seriously, green is neither rust, blood-red, or grey... So this is not Gears...

@SigmundTheSeaMonster: Exactly. The gun maker literally did nothing... The stepfather, on the other hand, is a ****ing idiot... Imprison HIS ass...

This is entirely the parents' fault. Who in the **** leaves a loaded ****ing gun in reach of a three-year-old?

The ESRB's arbitrary declaration that publishers must "request that the trailer be removed" if they don't have an age gate is BS.

HELL YEAH!! Anybody know if the "buy for PC, get for Mac too" thing is retroactive?

I love Valve.

I want...

@Chicken Pawks: Ain't enough freaks to stop this man!

Hell yeah...
