    It looks like any other warfare game.
    I'm not sure what you would like to see in such a videogame. of course there'll be warfare, but I think there's little doubt it looks next-gen. Compare it for instance with Call of Duty Ghosts and tell me it doesn't look better. Those water effects alone, with the huge and realistic swells of water, are jaw-dropping. Of course, if that's High-end PC footage and the console versions will be watered down (ha! c what i did there?) then I'll retract my statement.

    Well I think it's well known on MC that I don't want to see any warfare game... ever. I want them all to disappear forever.

If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Whoa, this is a first... You can now return games you hate on Origin...24 hours after you launch them, within 7 days of your purchase.

    Great idea. Wonder when Steam will implement something like this.

    Saints Row IV is so different, yet so similar to III. The inclusion of super powers makes a lot of the run-n-gun seem downright mundane. Punching cars hasn't gotten old, yet. And hey, there are hover tanks that shoot laser pulses.

    What was this incredibly shocking ending of Batman: Arkham City? I read somewhere around its release that it had a shocking ending. Was it the [

    I was horribly dissapoined by the finale. That was an awful, and awfully easy (on the hardest difficulty!) boss fight with the clay dude. I can't believe I was swinging a sword and chucking ice grenades through all that.
    Anyone else wanna chime in?

    The first time I played through it, Clayface was pretty tough. By the 2nd playthrough (on hard) he was much easier, but I think part of that is I had already figured out the trick. I dunno, I was happy to be fighting one of my favorite Batman villains. (*shrug*)

    Starting playing AC: Brotherhood a few months back, put it down after a day, and now just randomly picked it up again. So I enjoy renovating Rome, sue me.

    It's like someone made a good version of Crackdown.
    This is a signature, I assume.

    There's a gun in Saints Row IV that fires black holes. So much win.

    Is it true that the effects of the Dubstep Gun aren't felt until the drop?

    It's true, you have to hold down the trigger and it takes a second to "warm up" before hitting the drop. That said, the dubstep gun is a bit of a disappointment. Tough to aim, negligible damage to everything except to UFOs.

    It's still cool that the effect only hits after the drop.

    So, NHL 2014 has it where you can play in a HD-updated NHL 94, otherwise, probably the best Hockey Game engine ever. I could play entire seasons on that engine.

    All right, so I used the Dubstep gun a little more last night. It does actually cause decent damage, and of course there's options to level it up. Even at its lowest damage, though, it takes down UFOs nice and quick.

    Shin Megami Tensei IV. Just because it's not SMT3: Nocturne 2 doesn't mean it's not the best new game I've played this year.

    Welp. Couldn't resist the urge to buy Saints Row IV. If it's anywhere close to III, it'll be my favorite game of the year.

    I really wish I was smart enough to succeed in "XCOM: Enemy Unknown", because I had so much fun with it.

    I am just too stupid for strategy games, let alone an unforgiving one.

    What difficulty are you on? I've tried classic Ironman a few times and pulled a Spun, er, rage quit.

    Has anybody played Infamous 2? I just beat the first Infamous - brilliant game - and all there is to do now is to collect all the shards, which doesn't really interest me.

    Battlefield 4 uproar at downgraded visuals, no 1080p native support and possibly reduced player number from 64 to 24 for PS4.
