Sooo, you're saying a perfect sandbox game is one with a lousy single-player story?

Unsurprisingly, I disagree. :)

Is there some reason that would cause you guys to make such a bad pun? 'Cause I know you're better than that. I mean sure, people here love really bad jokes in your posts; we all support your cause. But it really can't be just cause and effect. So what's the real cause of all this lowbrow humor?

HALO: Tactical Reconnaissance and Intelligence Battlefield Emergency Squad!

a.k.a. HALO: T.R.I.B.E.S.

Y'know what? Forget what I said. It's ironic.

I wouldn't say that the studio's name is ironic. It's actually more appropriate now.

An ironic name for them would be "Live Forever Studios" or "Longevity Studios" or something like that.

"Near Death Studios" as a name for a failing studio is like a black fly in your Chardonnay...in other words, not ironic at all.

Nice.

But in a sort of naughty way.

Battlefield: Earth sucked.

What hits the floor just after the Rubik's Cube? Is that a silicone implant?

I think it's hilarious that you guys rail against the high price of the game, yet there's a link to add the game to your queue at the bottom of the article.

Maybe you haven't seen any of the behind-the-scenes videos for Uncharted or Uncharted 2, where the voice actors do all of the motion capture work. . . most games don't have the actors do everything -- yet -- but the industry is changing.
