Woah, sorry. I never got a notice on this comment for some reason. That's weird. I only saw this because I went into my history to pull up an old comment.

This reminds me of my posting on Patricia Hernandez's article about saying "I raped you."

Oh yeah, Orcs was released on XBLA. I can't imagine the controls would be good though.

Ok so I am continuing my first play through of Deus Ex HR doing a pacifist run. 2 nights ago I took down a thug in the sewer and he slid into the water. I kept playing because I did not kill him. Reading online yesterday, I believe that would count as a kill so last night I reloaded an older save and spent the night…

I would second the Total War series. Shogun2 and the new "expansion" which is stand alone are both good.

There is something worse my friend. I experience it at work all the time.

I don't really see the benefit. Is it cool? Yeah. Is it different because it connects to your phone? Yeah. But it doesn't simply connect to your phone (insert "one does not simply" meme here). You need a Moga version of the game. So in essence, all the stuff you already have won't be supported natively. That defeats…

Platforming, exploration, mild gunplay, and puzzles! The series has gotten away from puzzles so much and it was a benchmark early on.

You are correct. The original reportings were that it is open world. I'm not sure that it is or isn't from watching this. We could easily just be seeing story markers for the main quest. Personally, I am not against it being open world, but I am not really thinking that it will make the series better than what it was.…

Yes, it is possible. But when somebody just blatantly says that something sucks with no reasoning behind it, it is typically internet crap.

Right. It was definitely not a "full release" type of game, but they positioned it that way and at full price. Great concept, poor execution. I never played it but I wanted to. I heard it was repetitive as well. Not enough variation in what you do and not enough variation on how you do it.

Yeah, just to reiterate my post and the other responses let me put it this way.

Thanks. That's a good benchmark. I will expect to get it around the second boss. If not then I will take guys out left and right until I get it.

So far it isn't that bad. In fact in a lot of ways it is easier.

Continuing my Pacifist/Foxiest playthrough of Deus Ex last night. I played and got sucked in and never stopped. I wanted to, but I didn't. I am hooked.

I turned Immortals off. It was just too...too... stupid.

Yeah, and you can't really damage the thing by cleaning it. It is soft and you can squish it and it is fine. Part of the design made it soft so if you smack your friend in the head accidentally you wouldn't kill him.

Right, I get that, but it isn't like the maps alone are no work. That is work in of itself, so I don't buy that willing to do some work for free but not other work holds up (or at least not charging the "going rate" of $15 for a FPS add on). But if we say that the other perks make up for the difference (basically I am…

Well it's basically gotten no press. Nobody knows it is coming out. Look at it, launching around E3 with basically no competition and still nobody knows about it.

This is why I ignore trash talkers. People say that it is normal in competition but I disagree. Is it prevalent in competition, most definitely, but that does not make it normal (i.e. approved of and acceptable).
