The collector's edition is $80 on Origin. Eighty fucking dollars. Which means the only way to get "the full experience" on day one is to shell out $20 extra for content that was purposely withheld from the player. It's unacceptable no matter what kind of spin you put on it.

So, am I the only one who thought that the original "points" system in ME1 was garbage? The bonuses were hardly noticeable except at the first and last ranks, and it didn't even matter because half the abilities/weapon proficiencies were useless anyways. It was more of a chore to level up than a...

Half-Life 2, definitely. That game is still amazing to this day, 7 years after release. And it has an absurd amount of mods and spin-offs that are just icing on the cake. I tend to get bored of FPS games, but I never really get bored of HL2. It's always fun to pick up and play IMO.

This is the most idiotic thing I've heard in a long time. If schools don't want kids to read it because of the language, then they should ban it from the curriculum. But no one has the right to censor someone else's work, let alone someone like Mark Twain. The book was written over a hundred...

COD 1&2 were great, COD4 was good. Everything else went down the tubes fast. "Meh" overall.

Sucker Punch looks amazing. I'm curious to see if it's a success or failure, but I will definitely enjoy it either way. It's like they took everything that was ever awesome and put it all in the same movie. Cannot wait. Can't wait for Paul, Captain America, and Thor, but everything else...

Okami, Red Dead Redemption, all the MGS games (particularly MGS3), Mass Effect 2, Half-Life 2: Episode 2, and a handful of visual novels. I wish there were more games that could pull this off, because all these are all my favorite games.

I really didn't expect much out of Vanquish but it was a blast.

It sounds like your school is full of typical immature COD fanboys. Clearly they don't know how to respect your opinion, so don't respect theirs. Simple as that.

As much as I would try to defend "games as art," I'm glad this game didn't make it. It's clearly in bad taste.

Metal Gear Solid is the series that comes to mind. Especially in MGS3 when you talk to Johnny in the prison cell and learn about his wife and kids.

Mass Effect 3 because I really want to see the trilogy completed. I'm really looking forward to Uncharted 3, Skyrim, and Batman: Arkham City also. ...And all the other titles coming out next year... I'm going to be poor by the time 2011 is over.

2011 can't possibly come any sooner.

My point was that a lot of the people who believe the government was involved don't seem to understand what actually happened. Many of the people inside died horrifyingly painful deaths, and the police, firefighters, and other rescuers also experienced similar deaths or injuries. And for people...

I have no problem believing that the US government might be holding back embarrassing information, but the wilder conspiracy theories are just downright ridiculous. And they are a disgrace to the people who died in the attack.
