Modern Warfare 2 (Xbox 360): Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 review
huh... ODST was made in a single year. MW2 took about twice as long, at minimum.
Even Halo: Reach was started before ODST... They are not made by the same Bungie "team".

So no, MW2 should not be compared to ODST for the length of development, as is mentionned in the article.

Just sayin'

18 awesome games that died at retail
A shame about the entire Thief series really.

It got it's whole light "stolen" away by the Splinter Cell games.

Splinter Cells, i've enjoyed some, but they always "felt" more like linear "puzzle" games to me. It was more a game of "find a way to get through a room without being detected. Retry and repeat until you figure it out."

The Thief series was really a "sneaking experience" that hasn't been seen outside that series to my knowledge, outside very specific (and rare) quests in Oblivion, and the "occasional" instance in Deus Ex 1 & 2.
It wasn't a "puzzle" game, it was trully about sneaking past guards and to try to be inventive in the way you approached the game. Can't get in a building through the front-door? Get from the rooftop, the basement, the balcony, the window... Usually, the "easier" entry points would mean more rooms to cross toward your objective once you were inside the building. Trully genious design.

Here's to hoping that Thief 4 will actually be released. I'll be the first in line.

An incomplete history of time-travel games
The Magic of Scherazade on the NES (maybe a typo there in the title :)...) was an arabian night-style where you had to keep going back and forth in time to solve puzzles.
Can't go to an island to reach a temple? Travel forward in time a few hundred years when there will be no lake around the temple.

Can't defeat an ennemy boss/demon thing monster? Go back in time a few millenias when he was still new to the world and beat him then.

I still think it was a better "Zelda-like" game than Zelda itself.

Chrono Cross/Trigger, Darkest of Days and yes... even the very known, but rarelly played DaiKatana could've been mentionned here. All games BASED on time travel.

@GamesRadarChrisantista, the retail value might be 100+, the real value isn't (ie webshops and obscure small stores).
Those dvd's? 20 if you search a bit
Jaws Unleashed? Rubbish
Those toys? 10?
