The original comic was pretty lame. Only a fanboy would have posted it as a strip. I like the addition DinoLast put in, but it really deserves its own, fourth frame to make it work properly. imho.

Now this is the game I want! Colonial Marines, slugging it out with an unknown foe, in a game that's a faithful homage to one of the great sci-fi movies, Aliens. Not those who's-the-fiercer-pussycat battles you get with AVP...

Well, that tells us a lot about you. Ew.

My sense is the people who are really psyched about AVP have a lot of nostalgia for the old PC or even Atari versions of the game. But if you're new to this video game franchise, the latest installment is okay at best, compared to other games out there. Heavy Rain, on the other hand, is only...

I'm going to hold out for the Colonial Marines game. And I hope they can somehow keep ultra-faithful to the movie but update where necessary. For example, in the AVP game I noticed the pulse rifle sounds exactly as it did in the movie ... but I wish they would re-record the sound or something...

Alright, I finally got into a few matches. I guess no one's playing this on PS3, it takes forever to get into a match. I'm a huge Aliens and Predator fan, but I don't see what the big deal about this game is. I've played as Marine and Alien, haven't played as Predator yet, but it seems pretty...

Is the demo for this thing already over? No one's online!

I had to cancel my pre-order, but the only reason was because of limited cash right now. Sigh...this thing is going to look great!

Is that for real? Ughh. This is the kind of thing that brings down both Predator and Alien franchises. :slap

Colonial Marines is going to rock! It can't get here soon enough.

As you start getting to higher levels, there's more motivation for people to work together. I think giving people 3x the experience points for reviving someone that killing an opponent is a great idea, and from there it just causes people to work together more closely. The real game is...

You know what, though? MAG's approach fosters teamwork and strategy. The more I played the Beta, the more impressed I was with how the developers set things up to discourage Modern Warfare type gameplay. You don't want to be running from spawn points? Work with your squad and make sure you...

I'm starting to like it as well. Now I'm getting better used to the controls I'm beginning to make some headway. And I like the fact there are clear cut objectives being fought for -- battles make more sense than if everyone's just running around killing each other on tiny maps where...

Meh. How does this game end? You fight all these missions but there's no final victory, and you go back home to an ungrateful public? Or you rise through the ranks and finally some disgruntled private decides to frag your ass?

That's the thing, these levels are BIG (so why would anyone trot around with a shotgun?). But because this isn't the actual game but the Beta, and no one's gone through the "training" levels that supposedly will help everyone work together as a squad, everyone's still playing Modern Warfare...

Wii is a good console. I still have mine. Is Force Unleashed 2 coming out for the Wii? And will they finally make the lightsabers 1:1 control this time, now that the MotionPlus is out? That would be awesome.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum 2 Thanks. At some point I'll probably try again. As a button masher, though, it feels like I have to slow down my responses so much I stop paying attention to what's happening on screen...

You mean we'll need some sort of hardware plug-in to get 3D? Or it can all be done via software update? It'd be really cool if we could get 3D via a software update. Though even then won't you need a 3D TV?

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum 2 I got all the trophies except for the combat challenges. As a button masher, that combat system just eludes me.

Yeah. My hope is that a while after the game is released, people clue into the fact that teamwork and strategy pays off, and that the Rambo-types get weeded out by the fact they keep getting owned. When the game first gets released though, I'm sure things will be a mess.
