"Hang on, wasn’t the original the FPS that ran on the CryENGINE? You know, that super new fangled bit of ninja programming that could never EVER run on scummy consoles."

This shit again?

What does this even have to do with the story?

At this point I'm guessing that the crux of your Crysis 2 coverage will be "LOLZ consoles can totally run Crysis!11"

"And now, despite earlier claims that Crysis’s stunning looks couldn’t be recreated on a console,"

False.

Making a game that looks roughly the same as Crysis on a current-gen console was never a doubtful proposition. It would just have to be severely reduced in scale. Which is what they are doing.

LOL, "online underground podcasts".

Marketing people are so cute.

@HeavyTank: Yes, that's exactly what he should do. Then he'll at least know SOMETHING about the game. Still not as much as a proper review would have told him, but he'd have a vague idea of what the story and gameplay are like, anyway.

Then again, he could probably get that and more from Wikipedia.

I for one know you guys aren't serious with these articles most of the time, so no flame.

But please don't talk shit about the Halo ads. Those ads are good. They just didn't depict the actual games accurately.

Almost an insult to compare it to Bioshock.

The Shoryuken/Hadouken one is actually really easy to do when using an analog stick.

Nice move, Sony. I would have been very likely to buy the Go if it had a lower price point than the 3000, but now that I know it's not only more expensive, but ridiculously so, I'll be sticking with my DS.

"Your only excuse for not picking it up today is that you’re waiting for the PS3 version."

No, my only excuse is that it's too fucking expensive. I'm not willing to pay $1 for every hour of enjoyment I get out of it (and that's assuming I enjoy all 50-60 hours, which hasn't been the case with any Tales since Symphonia). If that makes me a cheapskate, then so be it.

"yet potentially carries more fond memories and nostalgia than any other Nintendo franchise."

Except, y'know, MARIO.

Wind Waker was the first and last one I pre-ordered. Ocarina of Time + Master Quest FTMFW.

"we want to make sure that everyone understands that you play as a member of this elite unit."

The elite unit that no one but Halo nerds knew or cared about up til now? Makes sense.

^ should be one 'the', obviously.

lulz @ the the Carmine list.

I wish they had kept that design of the Little Sister as a withered scaly goblin thing. It would have made the Official Moral Choice a bit more interesting if the thing you were saving/killing wasn't cute.

Which has more impact: “Resistance” or “Resistance: Some Useless Text?”

Resistance: Some Useless Text, actually. It balances the title and makes it a bit more memorable, you see. Thank God you guys weren't marketing the game.

What about Nike, Bia, and Zelus, Kratos' siblings?

By the way, are you guys serious with WoW as the best PC game of this decade? Followed by the f**king Sims?

schmeidenkamp: "Okami was great...to the 3 people that bought it."

Because, as we all know, sales = quality.

You sure you want to spoil Mirror's Edge without a warning?
