@Waffleblaster OMG you mean like the entirety of WoW? I absolutely agree. I have hated Blizzard for years because they paved the way for publishers to release unfinished games. They made it alright to release a work in progress, and then have the developers continually add to it, whether in free patches or in expansions, things that should have originally been in the box, especially for the price tag. Like flying in Azeroth, which was in the beta, but wasn't put in the game for 6 years, and billions of dollars of our money later. The least they could do is give us some news about the games they are taking their sweet time on, that we funded solely with our wow subscriptions.

@Keech Indeed, COUGH Activision. MW2, Black Ops, etc. I didn't buy first strike until a week before the second DLC came out and I ONLY bought First Strike because of peer pressure - because no servers were even running original maps for a while. And I'm 100% disappointed with the new maps (I have not played the new zombies level though, I expect it to be excellent. Zombies is the only saving grace of this horrible game). I too seek primarily to purchase used games. I finally hit a snag with this though - I bought a used RE5 Gold (My xbox and wii, FF13, Fable 2, and RE5 gold were stolen last July - but I can still recover them from the pawn shops, when i have the money to waste) not long ago, and a used xbox because I was impatient, and for the first time ever, the used RE5 - advertised as "in like new condition" was completely nonfunctional. It could have been my xbox but for the fact that I immediately put in Dead Rising and MW2 to make sure that my disc drive worked, and they both did, though I discovered my xbox had a broken GPU, and then not 5 minutes later it RRODed.

Irrational I think you completely ignored the fact that morality is solely a byproduct of human consciousness. There are no core values that are mutually exclusive from religion or metaphysics. Morality and ethics have their roots entirely in religion, only recently have people begun to examine the idea that there are standards that should apply universally, independent of religion. Anyway, I'm not sure what they're talking about in fallout 3. You have complete moral flexibility. If you do something evil, all you have to do is give a bum a bottle of water, or do any other good deed, and you will get karma back. Granted, doing "evil" things nets you a far greater amount of negative karma points than any "good" actions will, but it's far from impossible to go from -1000 karma points to 1000 karma and back and forth again, for anyone who actually plays 100% of the game.

Half-Life is nay a decade old now and thus can be famous, because its fame is still noticeable nine year later. Resident Evil 4 is practically a brand new game, a sequel, and although I think it's second only to RE2, isn't ready to be considered by anyone because RE5 isn;t out yet and there's no way to measure it's impact and place in gaming history because no one knows what direction capcom will take RE and if they will ever compile a consistent (and ENDING) story.
