What's with the vleedin' Toto rreferences? Is that what passes for wit in the "this will pass right over the heads of anyone who wants a game like this, lol" climate of clever, clever you manage to keep thriving at GR towers?

BTW, I HATED that record when I was young and so did you-don't lie, and we both still hate it now. Toto indeed. I don't expect to be reminded of such dricel because of tenuously related song titles being bandied about!

GOW3 is more your certain quality while, with a new IP that apes a lot of that series and aims to get a 14th century work of lit inot the gaming masses minds there's still penty that could fall on it's face. Sony SM are just expanding and polishing the epic stuff from previous games in the series.

For me the jury is still ver much out on DI but here's hoping that it's more up my street than Bayonetta which, from playing the Japanese demo, just felt like DMC lite with the mad dialled up a bit and I expected something new rather than just reworked from someone of Kamiya's rep and talent. Doing what amounts to a DMC clone with tita and extr hair attacks doesn't excite me when it plays like the demo does. I can't get over all the perfect scores it's getting! Then again Madworld got plenty of goodness when it was WAY too little content for a disc based full retail game-but Platinum get a free pass all the time. Just like it's somehow Sega's fault if they're too damn lazy to make the PS3 version of their own game! And it's a decent port as well-there's been so much over the top criticisms of that port and it's just nowhere near as bad as they say. It's not in the same league for PS3 multi mess ups as G'busters let alone the Orange Box.

But I digress, I'm very much hoping DI will bring some GOW standard gaming to everyone but mainly to those on 360 only who will miss Kratos latest, and possibly greatest, if the updates since the mindblowing E3 demo are much to go by.

I always found the 'No Russian' mission a bit weird. Not in the sense that it wasn't dramatic or scene-setting, but why wouldn't the soldier your playing as question why he had to kill all those innocents?

He has a gun with enough firepower to quickly shoot all of terrorists, or at least kill half of them before having to run for cover, but instead he just plays along, fully aware that he's in touching distance of the guy who is supposedly behind all the problems...

He deserved to get shot for either not thinking things through, or being more stupid than Kratos.

Bayonetta (Xbox 360): Bayonetta
I thought the demo played like DMC lite with tits and added mental. And that was it. Anyone else would get torn a new one for doing EXACTLY what he always does but somehow Kamiya gets away with just about anything. As do Platinum-Madworld was a nice distraction but was NEVER long aniugh for a full retail price tag!

Anyway the demo felt and this sounds like yet more of Kamiya's under developed ideas and just throwing loads of stuff at a gamer and thinking it's enough. Well maybe if you're a baby or a magpie but not for me. More is not always best and just once I'd like to see his true action games fully evolve ONE(just one!) idead to it's logical conclusion or highest quality and not just chuck whatever he thinks of at us like he always does.

Games that were hated before they were released
Hate for DMC4 WAS justified just not for that reason. The reason being it was sh1t having to play half a game TWICE so Capcom could pretend they made a full one. Only the immense turd that is DMC2 saves 4 from being easily worst in series. That said RE5 was just as poor and SF4 was ruined by bloody noobish "focus" BS.

And as for PC gamers hating MW2 being justified-of course they are. Console gamers should also have stood up with their PC brethren(and EU brethren getting conned out of extra tenners so they can do it to all of you next time)and demanded dedicated servers. If anyone is blind enough to think that P2P doesn't mean more lag, greater host advantage and all the woes of OLD online gaming then IDK what to say to them. The biggest entertainmant release ever they called it, the biggest online game of the year-in 2009. Making ALL that money and they couldn't even give us some proper servers? Don't they care about improving on the last game online? It's 2009 and Killzone2, Warhawk and many other console games have shown what advantages are to be found with dedicated servers(to say nothing of the invention of the PC crowd and the amazing mods these days-and the past or are we all forgetting how great CS was?)and the most profitable game this year SHOULD have had dedicated servers whenit leans so heavily on it's online and they're the best way to go, give the best product. But Acti and IW only care about the bottom line and shipped a game with no beta(shocking that it didn't work on PC and PS3 eh?)and no dedicateds because all they care about is the bottom line while calling a game with outdated online a "premium" product and charging accordingly. Apart from that Kotick told us how he was going to force yp game prices and we#'re letting him, IW started making offensive videos and lying to all and sundry about WHY they dropped the PC's dedis. The "terrorist level" is ham fisted at best and controversy hogging at worst. It's a grutuitous bit of publicity hunting, imo, made moreso becauuse it could have been done a lot beter AND you didn't even need to play it! Meaning it wasn't needed in the first place! And the story is crap and silly and calling it MW1.5 would be generous considering how little anything improved. Seriously 9v9 IW? You're spoiling us ALL! Greedy buggers. I cannot believe so many of us rushed to pay for a sub standard online run and gun. Seriously, when R2 can manage 60player games on PSN why can't the market leader manage more than 9v9? There's less lag on those 60 player games than there is on MW2- market leading console online shooter my 4rse. It's a disgrace.

Ok. First of all, trenches can be dug quickly, like in WW1. Also the Russsaisn wouldn't support going into another war if the previous war had just been ended. They needed a reason. And I think the dude with the St. Bossles tattoos I think was Makarov, right?

You're right, I believe that at some point, a writer told the designers "You need some filler if you want a coherent story.", to which IW swiftly replied "We will never put 'filler' into our games" (okay, I admit it, I am a big fan of IW's work. Same as most gamers.) I think that they just wanted to have a reason in the story for why we had a Russian invasion on our hands all of a sudden.

P.S. Thanks for clarifying what Price did, I knew that there had to be some kind of explosive warhead detonated in space that formed some kind of EMP by the time it reached the ground, but I wasn't sure how they could both happen at the same time.

I dont really mind if a console exclusive game spreads to other consoles like ff13 and dmc4. I DO mind if a console exclusive game is only released on another console ( like if the new uncharted or ratchet came out on 360)

Im not a fanboy I just dont want to have to buy a new console just to play a sequel to an old series
