An interesting idea, but this kinda smacks of that "filling-in the speech bubbles of pre-drawn panels" thing which is usually meant to appeal more towards 10-year-olds and /b/tards. Over-all, it sounds like a completely pointless gimmick that's just meant to try and scam a few gullible dollars out of the consumer. Having unique choices in a game is one thing, it's an interactive medium, but in comics its completely needless. If I could tell a story good enough to put in a comic, I'd be pitching ideas to DC and Marvel, not sitting on my duff playing games.

Why should I want to READ in static what I just experienced in while PLAYING it myself?

And I don´t think that it can recreate THAT few moments when taking out that squad of enemies with your last handful of 12gauge shells plays out just perfectly (or the opposite) or something.

I think this *might* work, but I could see my 'comic' being filled with a whole lot of wandering around trying to find whatever and "probe away".

my will be 500 pages long due to the amount of lag from lack of a dedicated GFX card.

Pretty much exactly what I was going to say, do they think we have such short attention spans that we can't remember what we just did in the game that we need visual aids to help us along?
