    I'm just gonna throw this out there:

    Too much Lance Henriksen, is it possible?

    I mean between my MW2's, my TOR's, my Mass Effects and AVP's, its all starting to blur together with the dude with the ice-cold badass voice narrating everything.

    I saw the phrase "butt scribble preference" and I checked to see who wrote this article. I knew it was Bashcraft. It's always Bashcraft :D

    On another note, this doesn't look like a PS3/360 comparison shot, but rather a US/Japan comparison shot. The top in my eyes would be Japan because of the dude's face and the "butt scribbles" while the bottom would be America.

    Let me finish with this, I have no idea what this game is about but I like the top one better.

    Maybe the guys staring at her in both versions are wondering if that split in her top reveals either a shadow or a nipple. If they decide the latter, they wonder if it's a man nipple or a chick nipple.

    What do you mean breeding aliens will result in all our gruesome deaths? Sure it hasn't worked 50 times before this but I think we'll get it right this time.

    Question: What role will you be playing as first?

    Despite my love for both Alien and Predator, I'm going to start off as the space marines. I like a bit of a challenge to begin with, and something about humanity coming out on top just brightens up my day.

    No, haven't you heard? Based on just one screenshot, the game apparently discards all the excellent story elements of those franchises for tons of blood and gore. [/sarcasm]

    @ Stephen Totilo How do you think an A&E spinoff would work? I mean we would know how it ends, i.e. the "escape" and eventual propagation of the species. But as for the rest of the game, i'm not sure. Just thinking about it seems to stir up more questions than answer them?

    Then again maybe that is the point, to question everything in this lore? i dont know, perhaps it could work, maybe thats why I am no Patrice.

    Co-op would be great though.

    @nateous: You saw The Truth video, right? So you know where I'm getting this from? That video basically shows them running around, climbing. Mix that with some Garden of Eden and have them doing AC acrobatics from trees and around animals -- mixed in with these god-like Minerva folks -- and we'd have something pretty cool, I think. I'm sure the designers could have a lot of fun with the Book of Genesis.

    @OmegaSpartan08: if you wanna judge it "fairly" you might want to wait some time after the release then. Every MMO I've played has had a terrible launch with bugs, crashes, queue times, etc. Warhammer Online was actually decent because patches rolled out every day for about a few weeks, which improved performance greatly.

    @Turkeyslam: i'll take that into consideration. i am new to the ways of the MMO so i may just wait. i can wait for the first expansion or if i get selected for the beta i can see how it runs there and make my decision.

    The biggest problem -- only problem as far as I'm concerned -- with AC2 is that it's made the original AC unplayable, at least for me. After finishing 2 I wanted to go back and replay 1, because all I really remembered of it was the setting and the repetition. Managed to get through about 30 minutes before realizing that AC2 improved on everything so much that I didn't want to deal with the original's limitations.

    Oh well. Thank the maker for Wikipedia's plot summaries.

    @Communist Pope: I know... the same thing happened with me and the Hitman series. I played Blood Money, and wanted to go and replay the first two. Got about 20 minutes in and had to quit because of how much better Blood Money was.

    @Communist Pope: No disagreement there. I had never finished AC myself, but instead watched a friend play through big chunks of it, including the ending. Once I got AC2 and got everything there was to get, I still had an Assassin's Creed itch that needed to be scratched and thought, "Gee, I'd really like to play AC1 all the way through for myself and experience the full game."

    This turned out to be a bad idea since the game reached that repetitive low point about 30 minutes into it.

    See this wasn't a problem when occasionally watching someone else play AC because it all seems different and fresh when its broken up into bits. But once you actually sit down with the game and start grinding through the missions yourself, it gets really dull really fast. And the story isn't satisfying either. You run around assassinating random important people who are about to let you in on the whole plan before dying. It's not until the very end that all the story comes barreling through the door and surprises the craziness out of you.

    AC1 is not at all bad, but after playing through AC2 it doesn't have the pacing necessary to hold an attention span. If you're going to make gameplay repetitive, at least reveal a tiny bit of the mystery to us to keep us pressing for more. I'm very glad that AC2 improved it's story telling, not to mention overall gameplay. A wonderful game.

    See. This is where the DNA aspect of the animus fails.

    Desmond could only follow his ancestors until conception to another ancestor.

    ...which is exactly what happened in the flashback. It's his last DNA memory of Altiar--and the first of his mother.

    this is one of those games that favors those with one console...

    could you imagine walking into a game store and saying

    buyer: i want "Nier".
    teller: says, "which one"
    buyer: and then i say well i have a ps3 and 360.
    teller: well it depends then.
    buyer: on what?
    teller: butt scribble
    buyer: wha?!
    teller:would you like more or less butt scribble?
    buyer: /blank stare/
