I agree somewhat with one aspect of the article.

E3 is kind of bloated. It's a hype machine, where too much emphasis is put towards presentations and trying to 'wow' the audience, and not enough effort put into having meaningful discussions between the consumers and the creators.

You should probably head on over to IGN. They'll pretty much say anything you want to hear. Good luck.

I don't understand why they didn't incorporate a tag team mode. I was going to buy this so my buddies could crash at someone's house and play like we did with MK9, but without tag there's no point if only 2 can go at once.

Looks interesting, but I'll wait until the GOTY edition or at least until all the DLC characters are bundled and the game's price drops.

First of all, it's a junk bond, it's an investment and therefore not a loan.

Loans operate on the basis that money is given by the lender without acquiring any form of ownership of the lendee. It is on this fact that makes loans fundamentally different from an equity investment.

@nickpeck36

Except it wasn't an investment, it was a LOAN. The difference being that in a loan, the lender expects the money to be paid back with interest, regardless of how profitable the business becomes. Whereas an investment increases the investor's equity in the business and the return is dependent on the business' profitability.

Why don't you go ahead and tell your government that you're not going to pay your student loans because "investment is not 100% guaranteed". Let's see how that turns out.

Bioshock was one of those games that, when you've completed it, you had the same feeling after you read a really good book.

It just gave me one of those rare feelings that video games could sometimes be more than just a simple time passer. A game where you wish people outside the gaming community would know more about.

I don't care what anyone says, Runescape was the game that introduced me to MMORPG and PC gaming, and for that I will always remember it fondly.

In fact, I just might check this out in the summer.

I've only ever played the first Bioshock, and it was truly a fantastic game. The whole "gamers are wired to follow orders" was a pretty cool, yet eerie, concept. I think that concept extends beyond gamers, tbh.

Maybe I'm just a pessimistic bastard, but this changes nothing. They're just going to find someone who can do what Riccitiello was already doing, but better: micro-transactions, always-on, DLC extravaganza.

"Meet the new boss, same as the old boss". That sort of thing.
