Wake me up when Activision does something interesting or unexpected with the franchise. Though you guys missed that the supposed release date is late December. And what game is sitting in Acti's usual CoD release window? GTA V. Methinks they're actually scared of something outselling their annual sludge-fest.
Though hopefully they've finally gotten rid of that monkey-with-an-organ-grinder they call a game engine, because if they even want to stand a chance on next-gen systems, a massive update is needed, otherwise CoD will just look like something out of Team America, compared to something like Battlefield or Watch Dogs.

Just because this is an EA product, I advise everyone to stay away from it. They will lie at first and do all sorts promotions (to get people to play this) however do keep in mind that at the end of the day, all EA cares about is money. They don't give a shit about players and most gamers who have played EA titles before will agree with me (probably). So don't get fooled by this because they will screw you over.

Surely there is a way of presenting articles like this without having to click through a hundred times! Couldn't you have ten to a page or something, or at least give the option to view them all as one long blog-style post? I bet you pages at the end get far less hits than ones at the beginning! The number of people with internet so slow it can't handle a page of small images and text is so small as to be irrelevant!

How can any self-respecting typography nerd not point out that the typeface used in Shadow of the Colossus is the ubiquitous and oft-reviled Papyrus? Come on, man!

That Big Daddy. What is that? I don't remember ever fighting that one in the screenshots, and I've even seen it in the promotional shots on Steam and Xbox. What does it DO?!
Great list, Mr, Houghton. I love me a tough mini boss fight, and Dark Souls is full of them.

What about Ninja Gaiden's Alma? I always considered her a miniboss, but maybe she's a boss. Way better than Murai (was that even the end boss? who cares). To me, she will always be the epitome of a boss battle. Beyond frustrating, but not because she's cheap, because she's incredibly fast and ridiculously powerful and you're not (yet). Once I defeated her, 4 hours and 2 controls after starting that battle, I've never felt so powerful.
