"play it for the game it is?" any other game that took 15 hours to let you do anything but run in a straight line would be vilified and burned at the stake. people that defend it are people who love the franchise and forgive the game's flaws because it's a Final Fantasy game. a casual fan or non-fan would never make it into double-digit hours.

The Fall is really, really good. Can't recommend it enough to anyone who is a fan of the games - it adds a lot to the mythos. Easily the best video game-based comic ever (not that there's a ton of competition).

yes yes yes yes yes

87 and 102. too bad so many confused "t-shirt design" with "logo design," but a lot of good stuff in here.

@akeso the final femShep was just decided on not even a week ago, and the game is 7 months out. the marketing hasn't even started.

You left out an important aspect of this update: "The Halo: Reach Title Update will add more options and flexibility to Halo: Reach's Multiplayer. It will roll out in late September and gives 343 designers the following levers to create game variants in Matchmaking playlists. Of course while all of these features can be enabled via Matchmaking playlists, players should remember that 'normal' Reach gameplay can and will continue untouched in its own Matchmaking playlists. The features and elements listed here are tools available to us and will be used and implemented appropriately. "

It's not a wholesale change to the game's mechanics - it's basically a bunch of new options for specific playlists in Reach.

Because the world needed an offensively-brainless version of Buffy with zombies instead of vampires.

I wouldn't be surprised to see them put out a 2nd pack consisting of movie costumes down the road (we all know this will be a DLC pack a month or two after release). Would be an easy way to do a 2nd wave of marketing for it around the time Dark Knight Rises comes out - offer a "GOTY" version featuring the Nolan suit in the ads.

Oh, and the Dark Knight Returns costume here is definitely the best.

@lonecow third from the left is from the Batman: Earth One graphic novel by Geoff Johns and Gary Frank (it's not actually out yet, which is awkward).

The defensiveness of FFXIII-lovers pretty much says it all, doesn't it?
