    In reply to Mass Effect 2's Elusive Man is ... Martin Sheen?
    I love how he's simply called 'Illusive Man' and by that very name, too. However, I don't remember anyone on Half-Life referring to G-Man ad 'G-Man.' #masseffect2

    @(Zombie) Jölan: I'd imagine this is the starting point of the game, there isn't really anything that would be considered a spoiler if you simply think about the setting of Mass Effect 2 from the developer write ups.

    but alas, perhaps it should be noted that it may be a spoiler to people who are overly sensitive to such things. #masseffect2

    @bean: Well, the name itself is both, apparently.

    It's elusive since we have can't find out whether he's the "Elusive Man" or the "Illusive Man," and it's illusive because it's not his real name. #masseffect2

    In reply to Halo 3: ODST Drops Three Million Copies
    WOW! The haters are out. Loving all the comments on "Boo, 6 hour sp = ripoff." Yet no one seems to bitch about the 5-6 hour sp in MW2. Saying it is a shitty expansion pack with nothing else to offer is just silly. Please people, MW2 may be fun (dont know, haven't played), but don't just thrash shit without thinking about what you're typing. #halo3odst

    @FatherFingers: Well, I think the difference is that ODST only offered the campaign as new content, (multiplayer was just all of Halo 3's on 1 disk), where MW2's multiplayer is the meat of the game.

    Plus the co-op modes adds up, gives the game a better perceived value. Honestly, if one had never played Halo 3 multiplayer, the value would be on par.

    But I agree, it is funny how people see value. Myself, for instance, won't think twice about buying a game I think will be mediocre in retail if it's in the $15 range, I consider that a risk free purchase.

    On XBLA, however, I carefully consider my purchases, especially if it's 1200 points. #halo3odst

    @Culebra: I'm the same way when it comes to XBLA purchases...but then I'll hop into gamestop and scrounge for the old / cheap games. Why does that seem so much easier than buying stuff online? The tangible feeling of having the game in your hands? #halo3odst

    @Opuelas: I'm guessing that has a bit to do with it. Being able to hold a physical copy gives a greater sense of ownership. Also, with me, I think it's my expectations. When I'm in the store, I'm looking to buy. Also, I'm programmed that a disk based game is expensive, so relatively $15 isn't bad. I think I also expect a more 'full' experience, whatever that means.

    With XBLA/PSN, I expect the games to be more time wasters than anything, even though this is increasingly untrue. Also consider that on XBLA, $15 isn't actually $15, you're usually left with residue points, which is just extra money tied up.

    It's a big gray area, this moving concept of what makes something 'worth' it. #halo3odst

    In reply to Halo 3: ODST Drops Three Million Copies
    Why would Microsoft's pride be hurt, MW2 sold the most on the 360.

    Also, others have already pointed out that MW2 is on three different platforms while ODST is exclusive to one.

    Furthermore, three million sold copies is a solid number. Every GOTY contender this year aside from MW2 won't be sniffing that until the end of next year.

    Yes, I'm a Halo fanboy. Wanna fight aboudit?

    @Trey: I appreciate Halo and play Halo 3 system link nearly every month with friends (gaming w/ friends is always better in person).

    But I thought this game was a ripoff. It definitely should have been priced lower.

    But hey, MS sold 3 million copies at a high price and they knew they could all along. Selling 5 million copies at $30 rather than $60 would have still brought in less revenue. #halo3odst

    With the advent of STAR POWER, I will re-post what I said in the announcement comments: they never said March in the trailer. Why can't it be September 3rd?

    In reality, I am aware that this means March.
