    I will probably get DMC somewhere down the line. Not sure I like the new take that Ninja Theory is doing.

    Shut up.

    I have been looking at this game, and had the same thoughts at first. I have found out Ninja Theory has done a few builds and character designs throughout the development of the game and they started off similar to what the original games had as far as how Dante and the universe looked and Capcom hated them. I guess they told NT if they wanted the same look and feel to the game they would have made it themselves, and just continued with their established story lines instead of having Ninja Theory do the reboot.

    I will definitely be picking it up though. Mainly because DmC is the best series in the genre in my opinion. Also, Dante still acts like Dante in everything I have seen despite his new look, and the challenge in beating the game on the harder difficulties just isn't there in other titles.

  • I thought Fallout 3 was pretty good but I also got it way after it came out. I really f-ed up my character though and that sucked, but it was fun for awhile. New Vegas was okay and I played the hell out of it at first but became to fed up with the brokeness of that game. Skyrim was on another level. An untouchable level, and I obsessively played that game. I loved every second of it, the story and graphics were just so much better than Fallout. Not even close IMO.

    Yeah I don't like it as much as the God of War series but I have always really enjoyed it. I will definitely get it just not sure if I will get it day 1.

    As far as Fallout 3 goes the game came out 3 years
    before Skyrim. It is still a great game IMO. A lot of people would agree. I thought the game play was great. I think to many people expected it to play like CoD or something.

    God of War is fun, but I still prefer DmC. Probably just because I blew through each God of War game with relative ease in comparison, and I am the only person I know of that really doesn't like Kratos.

    Something about him just rubs me the wrong way. Mainly is because he is just an amalgamation of Hercules and a couple other characters from Greek mythology. Don't get me wrong he is unquestionably a nut stomping badass, he just bores me.

    It isn't a joke it is a statement of fact. He isn't an American. Hell, America didn't even exist when he was alive in their timeline.

    It's just weird. The only person I've ever met that didn't like Kratos was my fiance. Are you a girl?

    I agree Kratos is a little one dimensional.

    I just always loved the setting of the games. I love Greek mythology.

    Still wish someone would make a game based on Norse mythology and it not suck like Too Human.

    Him being a god has no bearing on the timeline, story, or him not being an American. Don't really have time for Far Cry 3, so I am probably not going to be getting it.

    It is going to be close for GOTY between FC3 and BL2 for me.

    Agreed on Greek mythology. I enjoyed playing the games because of that, but Kratos never grew on me. A gamed based on Norse mythology would be pretty damn awesome.

    If they don't make Hearthfire and Dawnguard free, I won't be getting them. I may not get Dragonborn either, just out of principle.
