That was the one thing I hate about 3.

Crysis Warhead
That was my complaint about Farcry that caused me to pass on Crysis. Not simply a lack of story, but an overall lack of soul. I felt that they left the design open, but with no respect for how the gameplay elements interact and the result. So many of the fights were just so terribly designed I can only imagine their developers threw monsters on a map, said "THIS IS COOL!" and called it a day. I'd wager they maybe tightened things up for Crysis, but I held no faith they could improve enouhto make something I could consider purchasing. I don't really mean to bring down a thread for people who actually enjoyed the games out of that studio. I apologize for it. I'll be hopeful for Warhead. I'd like to be able to share in finding these games good. Maybe they'll do something in this one that can please me while no alienating their normal fans.

Excellent! I was waiting for someone to slander it before me. To break the ice a little. And so I wouldn't feel like I started it. Crytek sucks.

Metal Gear!
That's what I've been hearing. I'm personally gonna buy it as soon as the current generation of games stop raping my wallet. @Xard Been eating a lot of sugar lately? If you're in the US, you should be able to find Metal Gear Solid: The Essential Collection for $30.

It also features a protagonist so annoying that he rivals Final Fantasy X's Tidus. But it's still a good game. Another complaint I can level at it is that a good and exciting ending is marred by further elaboration that gets overly philosophical to the point that it gets lost in its own train of thought. But, I think it has the best villain characters of the series. I personally prefer 3. For gameplay, for pacing, for being less convoluted, for the boss fights, though not the boss characters (except The Boss).

He was being disruptive of the classroom. When speech causes a disruption of the objective of a school, it can be silenced.

I think there's a couple heretics in this thread we should purge.

Have you played Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops?

I'm also annoyed that the Gamestop I pre-ordered the LE at (I had no choice, only Gamestop has the LE ) won't be having a midnight launch.

Anime recommendations: Part 2
It is inherently illegal, even if not licensed. The only reason anyone thinks it's a grey area is because it's quite unenforceable. But, I'm going to be a cop. So, it might be a bit awkward for me. I've put an end to all my downloading of anime.

As our resident self-proclaimed biggest Metal Gear fan on these forums, I have to say: Yeehaw. Who wants some spoilers? I won't post any, but I've got a couple doozies. Not all publications got the word on what to be hush about and some places have broken street dates. Also, the 90 minute cutscene thing originated with EDGE magazine and has been refuted by the Gamepro reviewer. What I'm thinking is that either it's an exaggeration (IE, he didn't count, that's just his way of saying it seemed long) or he's counting closely spaced cutscenes as one (which, if they're close enough is a completely reasonable thing to do). Edit: MGS3 Secret Theater was awesome. Thank god for Youtube since I don't have the Subsistence second disc.

Hopefully ADV will get back to releasing stuff soon. I want Gurren Lagann to finish releasing. I also want someone else to pick up Black Lagoon. Either someone to start printing more of Geneon's or new, I don't care. Edit: Hah! It sounds like Bandai has picked up GL. Funny thing is, if this is to be believed, http://www.amazon.com/Gurren-Lagann-1/dp/B...5157&sr=8-1 they're not bothering with dubs.

I liked AvP2. It was a good action movie that didn't try to be something else, unlike AvP1.

PETITION: PLEASE CHANGE THE INFINITE AMMO DESIGN
The US government is hiding the existence of hammerspace from us so that their secret agents can use it. Just like flying cars, wrist watches with magnetic force fields, and incredibly intelligent models.

Gar = gay, usually to say you're gay for something. It originated from a typo. I found a good definition that fits both of us, though. A term used towards male characters and individuals who are so overwhelmingly manly that your own masculinity is absolutely *buried*, leaving you naught but a whimpering, swooning girl-child before them. Originated in 4chan's /a/ board. A poster was describing his feelings towards the Fate/Stay Night character Archer, and mistyped "gay" as "gar". http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=gar

I don't think you're using that right.
