Jesus. This thing is a fucking sport now.

I was offended too, but the game is great otherwise. Just think of it like that movie, Breakfast at Tiffany's. A classic, but there is a HUGE racial stereotype embedded in the middle.
All the executive producers were white, so it makes sense that this would slip by them, and that none of them would see it as potentially offensive.
I went to Future Shop here in Montreal Canada and bought it day 1. They only had one copy of the Augmented Version on the shelves. I share your pain. I try not to use Steam because I have bandwidth limits.
This is from the GAF release dates thread:
I don't like this. That Gabe has moved offices to be closer to one of his children is like a creepy stepdad taking the bedroom beside his stepdaughter. YOU ARE A DAD! Play with YOUR OWN KIDS! Half-Life 3 needs your attention!
They probably have a very small team on BIA pre-production, figuring out the look, planning the levels, that sort of thing. Borderlands and Aliens are both full-go. Furious 4 we probably won't see for a coupla years. Once Borderlands and Aliens ship, both those teams will likely be shunted to Furious 4. Next Duke will…
I bought the PS3 one so I could get the PC one too. But maybe it's a matter of - Valve gives a shit about the PC, so the PC community gives a shit about them.
Seems kinda contradictory at first - the hunt for scarce resources - and then I see all these huge mechs duking it out, USING UP those very resources. But then I think about how America will send entire armies out there for oil. Not so contradictory anymore.
With former 1upper and notorious griefer Shawn Elliott on their dev staff, I am sure they will QA all the terrible game-breaking things one can do.
I think I will buy a shrinkwrapper, buy games from Gamestop, open the package, take the contents out, re-shrinkwrap it, then return it as "new" in retaliation.
Isn't Steam also a competitor to Gamestop? Why do they sell games that require you to download Steam - like Deus Ex itself? Their logic isn't consistent here.
I'm crying and I'm not even the one being asked to get married. This is lovely.
I kind of like this talk.
I am a PC gamer, and I love PC gaming, but maybe Ubi should consider not making any more PC games. Just stick to consoles. They have to be asking themselves, is all this bullshit worth it? It seems like they can't do anything right. Just porting to PC is like asking for vitriol. Do they really make enough money…
Wish I could play as FemShep.
He speaks for all of us. He is the voice of my generation. God bless him, and god speed you magnificent bastard.
I like whatever he makes. I like how in your two hour demo summary of the game you mentioned how the "upgrades" were in your brain, in how you perceived things. That sounds like the best game in the world.
My speculation is that the island itself is the biggest maze of all at the end. Look at its layout. It's begging to be a maze puzzle.
The cover kind of reminds me of a cover of a book in Alan Wake or Max Payne.
