@embef: I'm sure they're making Ep3, but in what capacity? We have gotten a game from a new IP and have also heard of the release date for the sequel of that new IP before hearing ANY real news about Ep3 besides "We're working on it, probably".

@Rauzaruke: Can we even call Final Fantasy an offender anymore? I mean it takes Squeenix like 4+ years to put out a new FF nowadays, and...

I think Valve forgot all about Half-Life 2: Episode 3...

@dmfamzo: Retailers semi-frequently sell 1-year cards for that much. Just wait for a sale and jump on it, I've done it 2 years in a row now :)

@Tiber: I remember once as a lad, during my Xcom and TIE Fighter addictions, my father decided to put a user password on the computer as windows loaded. At first I was distressed, until I realized 5 seconds later that I could just click "cancel" to bypass the signin/password completely. Afterwards I began to realize…

Ripoff

@InvaderGirJr: I like how on the 360 version at least, many people don't seem to appreciate the spy's revolver weapon. Of course you want to go for the backstab, but when forced to fight, its funny to see a spy trying to chase you swinging that weak knive rather than using their accurate and rather powerful revolver.

@HELLSRIDER is trying to get a job: The last update for 360 was pretty much the only one. The only things that I remember it did was fix the lag issue with most games, and it nerfed the demo's nade launcher from holding 8 nades to 4.

@MDRL: Well, when it regularly takes your 45min - 1 hour commute and turns it into a 2+ hour ordeal of frustration, your tune will change.

@Lincolnsbeard33: Yeah, the super-popluar Halo franchise that is made up of 4 games and 5 novels certainly has no depth to it's plot.

@Katoejoe: This was pretty much the point of the Mass Effect trilogy. It follows Cmdr. Shepard all the way through, so it would only make sense if you could carry your character from the first game to the sequel.

@Ranzell: Well I for one think the boomer/pyro match-up is the funniest of the bunch.

@Frologic: If your comment is more funny than it is offensive, then it's ok.

Can't Valve patch the stupid exploits in the versus mode on the 360 already? I can't play this on 360 anymore because everytime I do, the other team basically cheats every time to turn the game into a long standoff.

His Halo books were good reads overall. Halo has some kinda deep lore for those who choose to look for it, and he portrated it quite well for the most part.

Oh jeez, WHAT is the deal with Gears of War and being broken?! It can be so good, but it always seems to be broken!

Mother 3 comes to mind, here... a great game I would have gladly paid for, if Nintendo gave me the opportunity.

@Silent Predator: I can see L4D getting a nod for best story, but as good as Gears 2 sometimes is, story is definitely not it's strongest point. The Maria thing was kinda touching, but the rest was to me rather bad.

@lllusionx: Yes, where is bike hero? That movie was THE shit.

@Daikon: Dude, it's Mother 3.
