Yeah, After Effects is the way to go for animated logos and stuff.

Damn can you read my mind or what?

No, but thanks. But I finally ordered Chrono Trigger, so that should keep me occupied for a while.

Those boobs look pretty real to me so I'd say yes, it's a woman.

I really hoped that Oddworld Inhabitants would be there, perhaps announcing Citizen Siege or talking about the PC ports of the Oddworld games. But nooooo....

I think L4D2 just sounds sexier than L4D: Expansion Name. Besides, they may tag it with 30$ anyway. If not, it won't matter either. Fanboys will fall over it like zombies over rotten brain.

This one's more of a "run around and do crazy stuff" than "go to point Z and get story mission". I recommend just checking out the parachute and grappling hook stuff, the story or combat aren't really good. Well if you say story and combat isn't good, then it's not worth checking it out at all.

Ugh... that reminds me. I should probably finish GTA 4 first before I waste time on another sandbox game.

I always wondered: Is it mandatory from the platform holders to use save points? Why can't you just designate a button for a quicksave function, for example?

Never heard of this game. Tell me, is it worth downloading a demo?

Currently I have nothing on my plate, but I'm thinking about getting Resident Evil 5. Or perhaps I should wait for the PC version instead? Hmm...

Hearing filthy words will surely make murderers out of the children! No, but it's still in many cases not necessary to use overextended swearing.

Um, no, given the number of games I've played whose poor portage from consoles to PCs is clearly evident, it's a perfectly valid question. Then I guess you clearly played the wrong games, from the wrong developers!

If it has been marked by PEGI as 18+ or by ESRB as M only, it is idiocy of the parent to buy his 10 years olds the game and not the idiocy of the developer of the game... I meant that the seller should be convicted for it.

Yeah, probably, but just allowing an 10 year old buying Condemned: Criminal Origins won't solve that problem either. Education? How, if most parents even don't care about this medium? I guess first devs/publishers have to grow up and try to make games that boast through creativity and imagination, rather than lust and blood and gore and swearing. Then maybe, parents will see video games through a different eye. Or not.

Well then it's good that there is jouth-protection from the German USK. Because parents these days like taks who let their 5 year old play Fallout 3 obviously are already so emotioanlly numb that they just don't care what their kids play. If parents fail, the law must come in, unfortunately.

I think this way too. This don't mean I wouldn't defend myself or my family but it'd still be wrong. Every soldier has a choice not to kill but in some cases it might cost their own life. Takes a lot of guts stand in front of the firing squad, just because you refused to kill someone. Self-sacrifice is interesting thing - games should explore that idea bit more. About this german censorship law. If you'd ask me about this 20 or even 10 years ago, I would have been strongly against it but now I'm not so sure. Minors playing all kind of violent games and surfing whatever recent *shock* website do make me bit nervous. Parents or teachers rarely have any idea or means to stop it. I'd damn glad there weren't internet or camera phones back in my youth. While i agree with you, i absolutely disagree with censorship laws like that... The parents should be responsible for their children behaviour alone... I am 30 years old.. I played Wolfenstein when i was 12, Doom and Mortal Kombat when I was 14 and i played them 24/7... Up to this day i have never had the idea to even hit someone, neither kill anyone, or even hit my dog... I had few friends who played Mortal Kombat 2 even at younger age... And none of them became bully, none of them is hitting their girlfriends, none of them are beating their animals... Because our parents have teach us what is wrong and what is right... You also know that these old games aren't really very violent, in a senze that they're just a bunch of ugly pixels? Modern games are much more emotionally involved, with all the agressive PR campaigns, the swearing, the realism, the pop culture references, and the

Well that's some wacky argument there. It's not so much about being ashamed of her war past, it's simply because these politicians are straight convinced that video games dehumanize young people. Espcially with all these school killing rampages going on in the past. But hey, it's election time in September there.

So, SIE is German and blonde, how stereotypical.

This is how I imagine Maria...

Krezzy gets whiney because he saw a screenshot from the 360. Boo Hoo! Of course there will be a PC version with appropriate GUI. Geez...

I think as long as violence isn't glorified like in AvP or God of War, and as long as violence is always seen in context with the story, it's perfectly okay in my book. I agree though that restrictive measurements to prohibit kids from getting a game that's supposed to be for adults is important, like in Germany. But banning the production of games in said country is just outright stupid and counterproductive.

One thing that bothers me from the video is that the Aliens move too slowly. I want them fast and deadly, like in AvP1.

Do we get Thorton seeing scratch his ass when he just stands around? Yes?
