If they want us to emotionally connect with the Spartans then they should point a gun to our heads and force us all to read the Fall of Reach book.

Technically speaking the fact that he has a picture of his parents at all is fairly contradictory of John 117 et al's upbringing in the Spartan training program - as none of them had such a picture. I guess it's a deus ex machina in order to get the point across.

Not entirely sure why, Super Mario Galaxy appeals to the main stream and that's one of the best games this generation.

Only really useful stuff that it can be used for are games and the occasional 3D-based app like Google maps. You can't tell me that browsing street view in 3D wouldn't be anything short of amazing.

Okay, the 3DS has the new tegra chip in it, right? Then imagine WIND WAKER IN 3D! It would be -really- awesome. Timeless graphics + 3D = a game for the ages.

If it works like an expansion pack but in reverse, so you play a made up mission from the game as a "taster experience" of the game engine and its controls, then I'm all for that. If it's just an extended demo, then forget that. I'd much rather just pay £40 and get the whole experience up front.

This could work very well or very badly. This is a brand new EA we're talking about here so they definitely have an opportunity to change the way game releases are handled - or add to the list of things NOT to do when releasing a game. Time will tell.

Never happening, and you can thank Microsoft for that. Same reason why TF2 DLC isn't free, or even available, on XBL.

Oh wow - he went there and he went there in a BIG way.

+1 just for the Home Improvement reference.

I'm never buying Activision's games again after what those bastards have done to Infinity Ward. GO ROCK BAND!

Yeah, both the iPhone 3G and the 3GS outclass the PSP in terms of horsepower. The Nexus One, however, absolutely kills it.
