    FYI preorder bonus for the show at GameStop is 12000 RTS points. Preordered it when I picked up ultimate alliance 2. Which I'm really enjoying.

    That's road to the show? Because that's quite a few points...

    Just wanted to let everyone know, if you preorder Crysis 3 you get Crysis 1 for your XBOX 360, PS3, or CPU. (originally, Crysis 1 did not come out for console and it only came out for CPU. But y'all probably already knew that.) If you're a console gamer, this will pretty much be your only chance to ever get Crysis 1.

    I have the original Crysis on my Xbox 360 right now. You can download it on xbla and psn. This is still a good deal for those who do not have it though.

    Yep. Sony isn't going to have a big stand alone event for a handheld that has been out for over a year.

    Yes I think most gamestop employees just want the next gen to wait. With all of the rumors of no more used games they have to be a little concerned about there jobs. At first I believed the rumors about the next box but now it just seems too stupid for even Microsoft to do. It sounds like something a Sony fan boy would post. If they are true though I agree they are stupid and I will not support them. I am honestly just sick of waiting. It is making it hard for me to enjoy the games left on this gen while I am constantly awaiting the new one.

    Asked them about the pre owned deal as well. He said that they would offer a percentage of pre owned sales if it came to that. I do not believe Sony will do this.

  • Not sure if it is because I haven't played a Resident Evil game since the PS version, but RE5 is killing me right now.

    I am only excited if Rocksteady is developing it. There seems to be some speculation that they are not developing it.

    This is the rumor going around.

    [Update: According to the rumor mill, Rocksteady won't be involved in this one. According to my Twitter feed of random people saying random things, the less-spectacular Spark Unlimited may take the helm. Hmmmm.]

    Warner Bros. has confirmed a brand new Batman Arkham game in development, and said the followup to Rocksteady's critically acclaimed series is due out this year! CFO John K. Martin revealed the project in an earnings call this week.

    "We expect [digital home video revenue] to grow close to 20% in 2013," he said. "And we also have a strong games release this year, which will include the next release in the Batman Arkham franchise."

    Yeah ... I'm excited.

    What will this game involve? Will it be the rumored Silver Age prequel? A more direct sequel? Will we finally get ourselves more Scarecrow? Hopefully we see something more solid very soon!

    I doubt it. This would actually be about right for an announcement.

    My guess is WB wants to keep the money train rolling and Rocksteady wanted to work on something else. So this is how it is going to be. Sad state of affairs for video games.

  • BTW Cooter the Skyrim DLC rolls out today for PS3. You going to be downloading it?

    Of course. Downloaded the patch yesterday for preparation. Don't know if I will download it today, but I will this week. Hard for me to play Skyrim on the weekdays because I hate playing for just an hour or two.

    It got a 4.5 on IGN and Gamespot.. That's pretty much as bad as it gets.

    Only games I'm really looking forward to are Tomb Raider, Bioshock, and GTA. I have interest in Metal Gear, Crysis 3, and Gears of War but not overly excited.

    Waiting for The Show and God of War.
