@Eville1 says SKUse me a sec.: You know what? When there are rampant issues of saves being completely erased for no reason in a game where most of the point is to get new weapons and characters? It is very unforgivable. Online is one thing, but the acutal game really is broken.

@robokasey: The drop technology in Halo is far from perfect. There is a small, but serious chance that during a drop the capsule fails, perhaps due to malfunction or even very light pre-existing damage, causing the pod and it's passenger to burn up and suffer a very violent death.

Maybe.... ooooooooooo!

Oh fuck that...

IMO...

@Lemonade: No no no! Halo and Marathon are two very different universes. Bungie said so, and there are soooo many lore conflicts between the two.

@Rianq: Good call, totally missed the ONI secret offices reference! This really looks like some sort of Halo spin-off now.

It's most likely a Halo game. Reasons?

@Burguois, Teabagger of Olde: You know what? In my experiences with life, money is a really, really lousy way to keep score. I have an aunt that made over a million selling toilet paper through the internet and working at home. She hasn't genuinely positively impacted the lives of anyone outside her immediate family,…

Gee, maybe if I get a lobotomy then I too can enjoy the game on the truly profound levels of Mr. Boy here.

I was actually just in the store thinking about buying this, but I've read all of the reviews that were up this morning, and I was very conflicted. I liked the demo, but it seems the full game is considerably less enjoyable.

Good game overall, doesn't seem like there's as much in terms of missions or content overall. I reached the 50% complete marker way sooner than I thought I would compared to the first Mercs.

@ArakniD: O shits, I forgot about the internet on the iPod touch. That is a big plus.

@BritBloke916: Doesn't the iPod Touch also cost considerably more than a Zune?

@Đipic: Arguably better screen (it is twice the size, anyways), reviews and everyone who has both have claimed better sound quality, the earbuds included with the player are way better, and a solid service with the Zune Pass, which is unlimited songs for 14.99 a month, and pretty good UI. Oh, and as of this update,…

@Puddingsnack: Go into settings and go to update Zune, and make sure you have the games box checked.

I used to say that Nintendo stopped trying for a while now, but now I just can't say that anymore, cause every single time I see another ad for this game I think it can't possibly get any worse, and then it somehow just does.

If this is true, I need to go to my nearest pet store, cause its puppy-kicking time. Dammit.

Ya know, before Chromehounds came out, I was an AC fan all the way, and very skeptical about how good Chromehounds was gonna be. Well, Chromehounds and AC4 have 180'ed my opinions on the franchises.

I got a Zune, thinking I might regret it, and hoo boy, was I wrong! The only thing that the IPod does better is its wheel. Zune has a better screen, better service IMO, supports more formats, has better sound quality, and it even comes with way better earbuds than the IPod.
