This is even less excusable than usual since it's already an annual franchise.

Psh, Ai Weiwei already put a door-opening cat in one of his documentaries!

I come to Kotaku for (relatively) intelligent discussion of games. Disappointing to see most of the comments here are people butthurt that the reviewer didn't praise the game enough, just like at every other major gaming site.

And publishers and console manufacturers continue to wonder why South America pirates so many games. And then the publishers and manufacturers continue to ignore the continent because of said piracy. Sigh.

One of my favorite games of all time. As excited as I am for the sequel, the E3 trailer showed a lot of combat and not much parkour, which has me worried. But everyone and their mom agrees the combat was subpar and the free running was the best part, right? So DICE surely can't be focusing on the combat in the sequel?

I'd rather see Nintendo finally put GBA games on the 3DS Virtual Console.

You mean he didn't want to do the followup costume?

People love to hate on PETA, but at the end of the day they're one of the few animal rights organizations in the country able to actually accomplish policy reform.

What really sells these are the imperfections in the characters' skin.

"I'll buy it at a high price, Stranger."

Can't believe I'd never seen this before. It's brilliant. LotR will never run out of quality memes.

This was the first thing I thought of. I'm glad there are other people out there thinking the same thoughts.

Number 1, Number 2, or "combo"? Is it possible to go Number 2 without making it a combo? I thought that was impossible.

I hate to be that guy but I guess I'll be that guy. This isn't cool.

I was super excited for Sunset Overdrve until I saw the combat. Why does everything need combat? Why couldn't it have just been parkour funtimes?

This looks exactly like my type of game. A spiritual successor to GIRP?

You straighten your poop stacks?

I'm not trying to make fun of the game. I just think it's funny that an article about a $700 in-game spaceship doesn't even include a picture of the ship in question, because in EVE the focus isn't really on what they look like.

Can we actually see the ship, or is it just on a spreadsheet?

Is the representation of "natives" in the game meant to be some sort of satire? Or is it really just sorta culturally insensitive?
