On cliffhangers... HL2:Ep2 anyone? le sigh. On pricing... I know it's not the point of this article (as Yahtzee points out) but I still go "wtf" when I walk into any games store and see a boxed Portal 2 for PC with a RRP of $90AU, when I swear I saw it on steam last night for under $30US -...

I wonder if this is going to have an unnecessary wait to purchase in Australia like Epic Yarn. The lack of any reference to a release date for anywhere other than NA and EU worries me a bit.

I wonder how many Virgin Frequent Flyer points one of those trips nets you... If it's based on miles I guess not that much :p

Same here, I had a tight knit group in BC, and honestly, thats what kept me to raiding week in week out. And, judging by other peoples comments, the transition to WoTLK was suprisingly brittle. By the time ToC was in full swing the momentum finally gave out, after losing people one by one by...

...BUT some other people did. Behold, Chicken Park! [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0167825/plotsummary] Having said that, now you know it exists, avoid it like the plague. I think I saw it when I was 11 or so, and even then my juvenile mind thought it was pretty stupid.

How 'bout, "Move bcith, get out the way"? Having said that, as far as poking fun at motion control systems names, the "wii" when it was first announced probably still takes the cake.

I'm more confused by the ball thing on the end of the right hand remote, looks like it's some kind of baloon pump...

http://www.smh.com.au/digital-life/games/sony-takes-on-wii-with-playstation-move-20100311-q10i.html Accurate enough I guess. Better than "Arc"? Not so sure. Thoughts?

I'm so driving the 8 hours or so down the coast to check this out... Actually, I'll try and convince my company to let me go to a conferance in Brissie, then bail afterwords and take a stroll down to the 'Valley... I'm pretty keen to have a look. :)

Generally Protoss, but had learned to play terrans in a viciously offensive manner that was most fun. Zerg has its place, forever in my mind for beating people in under a few minutes with a handful of zerglings and having people scream at me that I'm a hacker. Riiight.

Oh my... The Adorableness level... It's overwhelming me! ..... Ah, any news how much they'll cost? As awesome as they are I bet they arn't cheap.

Indeed. Yet another improvement that Bioshock 2 makes, the removal of the Circus/Bandito audio and somewhat shushing the gatherers garden. It's not somthing I missed that's for sure.

I guess you didnt get great savings from the Circus of Value then? :p

Well thats good to know. It would seem that most of the positive comments seem to stem from those who have actually finished so I should probably get to that then. :) If only there wasnt 8 hours of work between now and home...

It's been said in various places that as a game Bioshock 2 is vastly superior to it's original. Using plasmids and weapons at the same time is much better, encouraging you to use both as opposed to favouring one or the other. Anyway that's not the point. It's not the game, it's the emotional...
