CoOp is becoming more common, but right now only Gears of War and Halo3 spring to mind. Perfect Dark 0 had CoOp also, but I didn't like it, so there ya go. Of the two, Gears had it more integrated (sometimes you split up), whereas Halo3 treats it like multiplayer (one guy dies, respawns at...

The Protheans definitely looked like mind flayers, if that helps. :)

http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~johnny/projects/wii/ I agree, that third one is very neat. The software is probably too specific to be useful, but it does seem like something future development should persue. Maybe they'll make a VirtuaBoy II! :)

Alignment will be minimized in 4e, I think, so perhaps things will change. In previous editions, goblins had the advantage of numbers and a breeding rate, while elves had personal power without numbers. Elves would hate goblins for the same reason dwarves and elves made war in Red Box, the...

About a fantasy race in a game which defines elements with numerical values. Statistically, goblins are weaker than elves. This applies equally well to all races. If you make goblins genius and devious and that ravage the landscape with a sense of purpose and leadership capable of pushing...

I'll be interested in seeing how the downloadable content plays out myself. If it's too much for too little, it'll sink the experience for me, but it could be fun. Otherwise, ME2 should be a good improvement over 1 and ME3 should be a good story experience to seal the trilogy.

Cortana: So have you got a plan to get out? Master Chief: I was gonna shoot my way out. Mix things up a little. I think playing Halo2 before Halo3 is a good idea, but certainly not mandatory. The trilogy doesn't sync perfectly anyway, so not a huge deal. More of the Halo3 plot elements are in...

Silver = Free, and is basically just access to the marketplace. Gold= multiplayer, and costs $60 a year.

Correct, aside from games, the only accessory I bought was the Play & Charge kit, though the recharger tower: http://www.amazon.ca/Xbox-360-Quick-Charge-Kit/dp/B000EYF88G/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1197922510&sr=1-13 Is also neat. I may eventually get a messenger kit (for no...

From what I've seen, Mass Effect, while a great game, suffered some from the time crunch. I was watching the 06 E3 trailer, and you can see how features were scaled back, and the shortage of backstory and sidequests. Most of that stuff seems pretty "early development" stuff, so maybe there was a...

Her face is human looking enough that you can see, and she's got breasts, so she's a mammal maybe... But, I mean, her legs are decidedly cyber/ alien. Still, much more interesting character. I never noticed any of the characters "draw attention" to themselves, so I only talked to them on the...

The funny thing with the "choice" was that the first time, I was only really giving basic convo with Liara, and so it was a bit of a surprise that I was getting a "it's her or me" speech. :) And, yeah, Tali was a more interesting character, perhaps due to not being a love interest, she was...

I was actually surprised not to have a combat on the Normandy. I'd rather have a smaller group and perhaps some exclusionary NPC's (say you only have 4NPC, all accompany you, but it's from a pool of 8 potential NPC's. GW's has some NPC's like this.)

Yeah, Cave/mine, ship, Cerberus style "entry room, then big slaughter room, then t'section with two rooms" and "big room with side hall leading to second floor". Sometimes with various rooms blocked off. I'm hoping that DLC will give a core quest style buildup for a good low price, but who...

The main drawback for me, is that once you hit the endgame, there's really no way to go back and finish quests. You can of course replay from the start, but that's a little different.

This is my second playthrough, so I did avoid the sidequests in the citadel, AFAIK. I did the party gain ones, since you have to, flew right there, grabbed her, then returned. Still, I'd hope by the time I finish Ilios it'd activate it...

I thought the aliens felt more like Star Treks "humans with masks" at first, but some have a SW vibe, sure. The Elcor aren't much to look at, but are fun. A buddy that read the novel said biotics were very much like the force. In the game, I can see the similarities, but there's enough of a...

Soldier Ally gives "Damage Reduction improves by 10%", not a big deal, but okay. Got it right at Completionist (which increases XP awards by 5%), and still waiting for Liara to register (since I got her later on).

Slavelords actually had a few Player Screwing Moments; 1) railroaded capture & de-equipage 2) "your arms are bound with chains, leaving scars that are immediately recognizable to everyone, everywhere, marking you as a criminal" 3) "you open the door, a fire trap goes off, this destroys all body...

Watched the episode last night on computer. They did a real good job of reflecting his decision making. I thought of the girl right away, but can see how he'd miss it, though they don't explain "why" that particular pairing would occur. Great episode though. Though, watching it online, I'll...
