Yes.

"Here's the thing though, they may get a very small short term increase from this but that box art will be terrible forever."

I'm pretty sure they're that stupid.

AC:L was made by Ubisoft Sofia, whereas ACIII was made (primarily) by Ubisoft Montreal.

Your opinion is well thought-out and valid, but I still attribute THQ's decline to terrible mismanagement, an over-investment in their drawing tablet, and a lack of quality games. Good theory of yours - just not entirely the reason for THQ's bad week. :)

This has nothing to do with "AAA" or next-gen games.

Didn't totally agree with you until I watched the video myself. Least cute cat video ever.

A liberal? I was kinda up with you until that point. Not sure how that comment fits the subject material, particularly considering the blog you're commenting on, and the article that elicited the reaction.

Warning: DO NOT DO THIS. I tried, and it was not filled with cake!

I feel the same way, Prime-Omega. I just can't get into it. I've tried connecting with multiple characters and classes, but it's just not fun.

Everybody makes mistakes. You probably meant to say "the first time" and then "that it has happened", for instance. :)

Lotsa people care about them. I sympathize with the way you feel, but they're still pretty good games... just not for everyone.

$30 for a month of play sounds like a great deal to me.

Their last actual gameplay trailer was very meh, I thought. Granted, that's the only one I've seen. :(

Trollin?

First: your opinion. Second: that completely discounts everything that could entail a good story, a good setting, good gameplay... you're basically writing off the game, without touching it, because it has surface similarities. That's incredibly shallow.

A game doesn't have to be "whoaaaaa guys, I'm crazy!" to not be a GTA clone. Nuance is something respectable, you know.

*sigh*

Is this English?
