@MSUHitman: Really? That is quite interesting indeed...

As a PS3-only owner, I dread to see the comparison video where we see the PS3 version with a shoddier frame rate. Here's hoping for platform technical quality parity.

I love this game. Folks, if you're on the fence with Warhawk, I recommend you download the demo and try it out for yourself.

@poodleface: Mad props to you, dude! Seriously.

@Strangelove: Yeah, but in defense of Keith, MSNBC is not as outright insane as Fox News is in terms of making up/manipulating information to pass off as news.

Honorable.

If that's the case, does anyone have any recommendations on what kind of paper one should use when printing that out? Can I go to some place like Kinko's and get that done?

@Geoff900: Obviously. But Halo seems to borrow more directly from the military aesthetics of Aliens than Alien.

Let's not forget the dropships in Halo — totally from Aliens. And what about the armor the standard Marine grunts wear in the Halo games...? That's also from Aliens.

@Karma: @JCDenton: I think both of you guys (I'm assuming you're both men; apologies if I'm wrong!) did a great job on following-up and then surpassing my original assessment.

@thefloodgod: Oh, man. I didn't even consider the "Halo 2 route". If there's anything foreboding about Bioshock 2, then I have to say that making it into a Halo 2 analogue is far more distressing than anything that Totilo described in his write-up.

@CassiusLonginus: I said the same thing, but you did so much more articulately. Couldn't agree more.

I have to say, I am a little dismayed that you can't backtrack in this game. I didn't do much backtracking in the original, except to pick up a few missed audio logs.

@Archaotic: Demon's Souls is one of the few games where I actually get nervous before and during a boss fight. It's been years since I had that sensation. As a result, it's all the more satisfying when you take out one of those bosses.

@kyosen: Whoa. A Star Trek: The Next Generation reference. Nicely done!

Obviously, he has no understanding of game design. An all-stealth Batman, while perhaps more true to the character, would probably be a less fun video game.
