So you go to read something that usually has spoilers eg. Wikipedia plot summary and are surprised that you got spoiled?

Silly rabbit, idealism is for kids!

But wait, there's more:

The real joke is that the X-COM "canon" isn't worth anything. This might just as well be another-shooter-with-RPG-elements-in-a-weirdish-environment-from-the-Bioshock-guys and not lose a single sale. At least you can't really screw up the X-COM canon, not after Enforcer. It's like taking the canon from Pacman and making a FPS based on it.

So did you get around to playing Beyond Good And Evil?

I think one of the Windows updates downloads all the necessary drivers. My X-Fi card didn't work until I installed the driver.

Like a blob of black goo... Hey, leave World of Goo out of this! Guess they finally got around to reskinning Bioshock. Took them a while.

Oh hey guys, what's all this about? ...

You need Creative Alchemy to get X-Fi stuff to work on Vista or Windows 7, something about Microsoft forcing Open AL. Works just fine with Alchemy, though.

2000 called, it wants its non-widescreen resolutions back.

While obviously not as epic as the previous review, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories has mysteriously appared on the site as well.

True enough, I'm just tired of the constant reshuffling of the characters, the snail's pace the story is progressing, and the one-answer-per-episode thing the are doing. There are 4 episodes left, I want people to die left and right, drama and action instead of people sitting in their camps or slowly hiking through the jungle.

Jack ducks from another lame filler episode.

Ladies and gentlemen (and Oner), the moment you've all been waiting for: Just Cause 2. It's pretty amusing and pretty true, except the vehicle upgrades part, they do in fact apply to all vehicles of the same type. .

Well, I'm super happy with it.

Wow, a genuinely good episode, I'm surprised. We got answers, Libby, plot advancement AND Ilana blowing up. The whole "love changes everything" schtick is kind of cheesy, though. Oh, and they still didn't answer why Libby was in the mental institution in the original timeline...

More like New Game -. Am i rite?

The "trial and error" style is when you get spotted you're done, just reload the last save. The "new" style is that you still have a chance when you are spotted.

Boo hoo. Being "obsessed" with anything isn't particularly healthy. I'm interested how the game will turn out, but I couldn't care less if it comes out today, a month from now or in three years.

It went all downhill with Double Agent, they scrapped the next one and completely redesigned it to be Splinter Cell: Conviction. I'm not the biggest SC fan, but I don't think the old style Splinter Cells would do today. You need super polished gameplay and a slick interface.

Yeah, risks are pretty much a no-no with AAA games. Too bad none of the lower tier devs wants to make a stealth game... From what I've heard the multishot feature is pretty awesome, though.

To be fair, the old-style stealth system doesn't really work anymore either. The trial and error thing might have been fun 10 years ago, but it's kind of outdated by now.

That was when we had videos of you being able to ride gas cylinders into the sky and an awesome demo. And that was hardly obsessive, I was mostly miffed at the general lack of interest in an awesome game. @Raithe: Waiting for a game to come out is a close second after watching paint dry on the list of most boring hobbies ever.
