Hehe! Look at 'em dance! . .. ... .... Dear god, I need off work NOW.

Ack! Of course it comes out while I'm still stuck at work! Curses! Luckily, I called home and had my brothers start the download for me. So when I get home, the goodness begins!

The game manual is pretty dang funny.

Another problem is, they'd have to make the environment much more destructable than it is at the moment. Remember, one of the few times we really saw Dog in action was where he threw a Combine transport right into a building (which has got to be my favorite scene in the game, by the way ). I think people would feel pretty cheated if they were chucking cars and shipping containers around with Dog's strength and they were just bouncing off everything else.

Dog would be awesome to play as, but I'm not sure how they'd make that work. Someone could probably make a ridiculously cool third person mod around that concept, though. I think it'd have to be a new character, if it wasn't gordon. Having one of their major players suddenly not talk a lot would be too weird. So if they don't bring back Shepard, I'd say either a Human Resistance fighter or a Combine soldier. I'm going to guess Resistance fighter for the time being, though.

We had a long thread going on the Steam forums a while back about how it would be cool if you played as Shepard from the Opposing Force pack in the expansions. But since they are calling it "Aftermath", I doubt it.

That's right! My mistake.

Doom 3 Walk. Shoot. Walk. Shoot. Walk. Shoot. Grab item. Get attacked. Quit. Unreal Tournament 2004 Katamari Damacy Best thing since sliced bread. True Crime: Streets of LA Worst. Purchase. Ever.

She's way more hot than Lara Croft. "Are you going to use your.......scalpel?!"

Hopefully this isn't just the High Res new maps VALVe was talking about a few months back. Those were just going to be a few new parts added into the Beach \ Highway levels, optimised to use only the highest and best graphics cards (part of some deal with ATI, I think).

The demo that came out is decent, but pretty darn buggy. It's worth your time if you are interested in the humor of the game and how it plays, but I hope they clean it up a bit before it comes out next month.

Man, that just gave me a horrible vision of the Jolly Green Giant. <runs>
