    Maybe I will finish it then.

    I don't know why but after a while I became very disappointed with the 3rd game. Just something seemed off about the tone of the game. I never felt that true urgency like the entire galaxy was relying on me.

    After reading a Bible's length of discussion and theories on the ME3 "ending", I'm convinced that this never was the intended ending and that EA forced a time schedule on them that wasn't doable. I mean, the DLC is free and the devs have been pretty smug about the whole thing. That, and I just want another reason to hate EA.

    yeah they kind of left that feeling out. even tho you had to go convince all these people to help you.... the ending just sucked ha, ill leave it at that.

    i hope so. i got excited a few months ago when IGN released an article about a new Battlefront, then come to find out it was almost finished then they scrapped it.

    Force Unleashed doesnt even compare to Battlefront or KOTOR.

    I liked TFU, but being a Star Wars nut, I didn't necessarily like the story as it seemed to introduce some enormous plot holes, but oh well.

    I concur that it wasn't in the same league as those you mentioned. One Star Wars series I wish would get "updated" is Dark Forces. Played the crap out of that as a kid and would like to see it with the updated technology available.

    What exclusives do they have this year outside of Halo 4? I honestly can't think of any.

    Maybe Ryse but I haven't seen or heard anything on that game in a while.

    They have a lot of really good xbla games released every year that I like. I am really looking forward to Deadlight and Trials HD was a lot of fun. I usually count console exclusives like The Witcher 2 since I do not have a good PC that is capable of running games and that Microsoft Studios usually chooses to put most of there games on PC anyways where Sony does not. Microsoft released more than people realize it is just lately there has been too much focus on Kinect and the PS3 is kicking its ass in triple A game releases. As far as Ryse goes if they make it a regular game that uses the Xbox controller with Kinect something optional like the Skyrim update it will be one of my most anticipated games but if they make it a Kinect game I will have no interest at all. As far as PS3 goes I am looking forward to God of War Ascension, Sony Battle Royal, The Last of Us, and whatever the developers of Heavy Rain announce.

  • I really hate exclusives especially with a new generation of consoles about to come out and there will be no way I will be able to afford both consoles at the beginning and it will hurt missing out on games. Even with the Wii U coming out I will want to play the new Mario and Zelda games and I will probably not buy it and save up for whichever looks best between the PS4 and new Xbox which as of right now I have no idea which I will choose.

    On one hand I sort of agree but then again exclusives tend to be some of the best games released because developers can really focus on one console and fine tune it.

    That's why I don't bash systems. Both have great games and both have things that make them better than the other. Nothing more annoying than fanboys who bash one just bc they have the other.

  • I recently got back into Skyrim. God there's so much to do on that game. I can spend hours not even sniffing a main quest.

    I don't really sit down and play the game much at any one time, but I'll play an hour or two here or there and I can't even remember which quest is the main story. I always just get caught up clearing out random caves and mines.

    I know this will sound insane but I have pretty much finished every quest.

    I am waiting on some DLC. Hopefully it is a very large chunk of DLC.

    It's amazing how much depth is in the game. Not only are there a ton of side quests, but there's also a ton of caves and exploring to do.

    DLC will just make it bigger.

  • Going to go old school on you guys for one of the best star wars titles. Anyone here old enough to remember X-wing vs TIE fighter? I would love to see it redone for the modern platforms.

  • I really hope they say something about the new consoles at E3. I am tired of the waiting and guessing and everyone knows they are coming soon so they need to quit denying all of the rumors.

    I hope so,too. I think it would behoove them to have a preliminary talk this E3 and then have a more in-depth show next year with a Fall/Winter 2013 release.

    Sony is supposed to be the first on the market trying to beat Microsoft to the punch. Hopefully Sony has a big announcement.
