    While I'm fine with linear or sandbox games, I prefer that the campaign be isolated and not be affected by side missions (That's why they're called side missions right?). For example, Crysis and Crysis: Warhead. What happens on Warhead does not affect Crysis in anyway, and actually builds up around what I saw in Crysis. Example of bad side story missions? C.o.D.: Black Ops 2. We have a campaign and side missions. Unfortunately, those side missions do affect the story of the campaign. So I should play them, even though you're giving me to option to skip them? If they affect the story, shouldn't I be forced to play them? That kind of open narrative annoys me. Like anime52k8 mentioned, I would be forced to spend more time on side quests than the actual campaign. Kinda breaks the pace of where the story is going don't you think? One thing I also don't like are unexplained time jumps. If you're going to make a franchise around a bunch of characters, at least try to follow the same characters or explain what happened to everyone else who didn't show up in some form or another. That's what annoyed me from Crysis to Crysis 2. What happened to Nomad, the girl and Pyscho...without making me look for a comic book which explains what happened (At least they're bringing back Psycho for Crysis 3). Build a bridge from one game to the next.

    It suppose to be a open environment where the player is free to choose any route to complete the objective. Basically, the player is dumped into a "sandbox" and they are free to explore, do missions, etc., within the "sandbox". Ubisoft keeps changing the plot but the idea is the same. Maybe it was the lack of a compelling story for Far Cry 2 but I wasn't impressed when I saw it either. I thought about Far Cry 3, but I really don't have time to immerse myself in a game for that long anymore. I may pick it up once it goes into the discount pile but probably not now.

    Seriously, this is just another Youtube fan video. Just like most of the other stuff on Youtube. If you have an opinion of their fan work, why not post in the Comments for the video or on their channel instead of here. Who cares what they call it. It's their project, they can call it whatever the hell they want. If you want to continue down this road we closed long ago, we can ban you right now and then you are free to go to Youtube and tell them how you feel without hiding here. Or, we can continue talking about the work these fans have done and encourage them to continue their work, I'm fine with that.

    So he was a campin' fegget. Every game has got 'em... Anybody use the sticky detonator on him and run away with a "LOL"?

    Dwarves live long lives. As much as 300+ years. Thorin was only middle 195 years old. There were some bits of white on his head and beard.

    Read this post in the Star Trek thread: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=36464&view=findpost&p=1007605

    When they do it to a rhythm, they're chanting "Deshi Deshi. Basara. Basara." Besides the various accents, the rhythm'd chanting, and no one says that in real life, that's probably what's contributing to the confusion. A romanized pronunciation would probably be "teeji basra".

    That is some very simple and nice boxart:

    I'm all for the principal that you want them to a)admit they have a defective product and b)repair the thing or send you a replacement. But seriously, I would have gotten a new laptop by now. And if you still want want good customer support, Consumer Reports still rates Apple as the best. I did pick up a 670 a while back thanks to gift cards and while I have seen some instances where my 570 would choke and the 670 carry on, I would agree that for the price, a 660 would be a good investment that doesn't break the bank.

    Reviving 'cuz,apparently, there's movement. Here's the press release VALHALLA ENTERTAINMENT SET TO PRODUCE “GAIKING” FOR ANEW AND TOEI ANIMATION Maybe the buzz around Pacific Rim is spreading.

    IRON MAN 3 Apparel Surfaces Featuring New Artwork See even the t-shirts use the classic War Machine colors. Next trailer needs to show the classic War Machine colors and not the Iron Patriot paint scheme, then all will be right in the world.

    At least one sentiment seems to be floating around. This should be called Star Trek: Into Lens Flare.

    The Transformers 4 Script Has Supposedly Leaked, Here’s What’s Apparently In It Take with your favorite seasoning. Bay seems to be denying it.

    Apparently there's another trailer. Did anybody see this during The Hobbit? (Youtube link pulled) http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/paramount/startrekintodarkness/ Oh, and probably some background info on Adm. Pike's words from this trailer: Benedict Cumberbatch Describes His STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS Villain Role Pay attention to this paragraph:

    As I mentioned earlier in this thread, the movie will try to address simple questions for Clark Kent; (spoiler'd in case people would rather wait till the movie comes)

    It's War Machine....in an Iron Patriot paint scheme. They'll explain it in the movie. Jon Favreau is listed as Executive Producer. Favreau is there to provide input considering he did the last 2 movies, but this is Shane's gig as he's writer and director. So no problem.

    This is just promo stuff in Singapore this week, but it put a smile on my face when I saw this: IRON MAN 3 Showcased At ContentAsia Summit 2012 Please, please, please, tell me the Iron Patriot paint scheme gets burnt off during the movie.

    Actually, the live-action film premiered already (August 2012) and will be out on DVD/Blu-ray later this month (Dec. 26, 2012). Blu-ray (regular edition) (CD Japan) DVD (regular edition) (CD Japan)

    The common complaint I'm hearing is this film is wayyyyyyyyyyyyy too long. Hopefully PJ won't release Extended Editions since he got 3 movies out of a single/lone book + short notes.

    Someone asked about Hawken? All Pilots to Their Mechs, Open Beta is Live!

    Since this film opens at midnight and some places are having the Lord of the Rings marathons in preparation for this gawd-damn trilogy (really???) again film: Anyone going to the midnight screenings, have fun. I'll see it in a week...when I head into my holiday vacation.

    Oh that just instills me with SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much confidence. ... Oh good. My sarcasm processor made it into this post, so we have that.

    Did I hear GlaDOS? I won't get in that science experiment thing.
