So I went and bought this game today, and all I can say is wow....it's ****ing awesome.
I've played a lot of games this year; Dead Space 2, Mortal Kombat, Portal 2, LA Noire, InFamous 2, Duke Nukem, Alice...but I'd say SotD is my GOTY so far (that will most likely change by the end of the year, though :p) . You guys should try it.
