	@raist: I think that one becomes accessible when you renovate the mines. The entrance is on the north side of the outer walls, behind where the villa is. @lnksmartt: We're working on it. Our hidden-glyphs guide, with puzzle solutions, should be up tomorrow. Your patience is appreciated.

	Quick note - although it says "videos" in the intro, those aren't quite ready yet. We should have them up sometime later this afternoon, though.

	@KillDrone That's why the contest is only asking you to reflect on the good times you had with the series. Hell, send a screenshot of your favorite level, if you like. @Hunter2458 It is compatible with the game of "Life" There's even a warning sticker asking you to "Please skate within your abilities on the other side

	@TriforcePlayer: I sort of wish I had, too, but I didn't think about the comparison until the review was already up. So I'll do it here: In spite of the score disparity, I do think Arkham is a better game (although I'd probably also give Arkham a 10 if it were up to me). Again, though, it's an apples-and-oranges thing; Arkham is a taut, focused adventure in a relatively confined space that messes with your head, and ACII is about tearing ass through a wide-open, convincingly re-created moment in history. Although if the Arkham sequel is structured anything like ACII, I certainly wouldn't complain.

	@garnsr: The accents and occasional spurts of Italian are explained as glitches in the Animus' translation software, if that makes sense. Really, though, they're just a stylistic choice by the developers.

Bah, The Neverhood wasn't last, I just didn't see Okami, still a excellent article and a reminder that we should support the games/developers that have earned it the most.

I couldn't love The Neverhood anymore. I make it a point to replay that game once a year. It is without a doubt my favorite point and click adventure game. Great characters, genuinely funny and fantastic puzzles.

Great article, especially for saving The Neverhood for last.

Just spent like 8 or so hours with the game and I definitely can see where the 8 comes from. The walking is easily the most boring part of any game, and this game has a lot of it. Fortunately vehicles come into play pretty soon and it isn't as bad.

If you really like MMOs like WoW this game will appeal a lot to you, people who like Westernized RPGs that focus more on combat are also a good audience.

Gunplay is mostly solid, though I still love VATS. The RPG elements are pretty light, level up, get more health, skill points, etc. The only strategic element that really comes in is the distribution of your skill points and the effects you focus your character on. Similar to WoW talent trees but a little bit simplified.

I'm pretty addicted already and I did enjoy WoW for a time so I am skewed to like this game more than I probably should but it's still pretty fun when it all boils down.

Anyone hit me up on PSN if you want to play.

I totally get what you're saying, any time a game series has released so many titles it's hard not to find it getting more and more stale.

Competition is the best part of this, I personally don't believe PD would never have even given cosmetic damage a chance were it not for the Forza series. Also, let's hope GT seriously beefs up the online components, they have a lot of room to grow in that regard.

@ Chris... again

They are however resting on the piss poor demo that was Prologue, until they deliver a proper game this generation all their talk is for nothing.

Turn 10 are seriously one of the most cocky developers I can remember recently. That's a turn off for me, especially when their rivals keep shut and just let them run their mouths.

The Forza community is amazing and their create features bring a lot to a very well trodden genre.
