The point is that it's a morality system in the co-op so you both have to agree.

Please dial up the somewhat unintentional homoerotic undertones from the first game, please. Very amusing, that.

Do you save the orphan or eat a bag of kittens?
BLAG! With the exception of Mass Effect, morality systems suck balls.

Quite intersting game...but do they really need to made the cut scene like comic??
Cant be serious..I hope it more like a cut scene from animation...Movies or something..
But it is a good shot.

The comic book moments and morality system are really reminding me of inFamous right now...

Wow. This is actually WORSE than when they were going to do that mini game in the first one. You know, the one where you stuck a tampon in some guy's bullet wound? God I'm glad they took that out.
Seriously though, I didn't think it was possible, but WOW- They actually added something that makes the second game EVEN WORSE than the first one!
Dear lord. When will they learn!
Do they really think I care about some dumb ass rent a cop? Please. How about they work on the gameplay and the main story, rather than some crappy comic book cut scene that people are just going to pound the start button through!

Is it just a coincidence that the decision making sequences play out similar to inFamous. Make a choice of "right or wrong", then play still images of comic book art. Hmm...

I like the two dudes arguing.
It really looks like they're struggling with some complex moral decisions.

Come on! Please don't use comic art (or any other hand drawn art) ingame. Don't get me wrong i love comics, i even when to school for comic book art (and animation) but i think video games should be video games and comics should be comics. It just seems so out of place to me... i'm sorry but i think it looks bad, i would so much rather see a in game model still of all these shots.

When you ask the players to make a moral decision and then flip the moral consequences of those decisions, it is only going to make the players realize that there's really not point even caring what decision to make. You'll seem to have a 50/50 chance of making the ultimately correct moral decision, regardless of the information you have at the time of the decision.
