Join the riverside community of ... Riverspring in Game of Thrones on May 15

I agree as well. The Game of Thrones story is already being told, we don't need to play through the whole thing as well as read and watch it. The world the books have created can sustain a whole lot more storytelling and flesh out interesting locales and histories that aren't covered enough in the books.

I agree it is an interesting choice. It would have been nice to choose a home city, allying yourself with one of the main houses in my opinion. At the same time though, this gives the player a new location to call their own and craft their new story in an existing universe.

For me, this game will hinge on its representation of the world locations. I want great gameplay and story like I do in any game, but the significant landmarks are one of the main reasons I'd buy a franchise tie-in like this. Hopefully it isn't just a cash grab and the developers can do those elements justice.

This game has me quite interested, side scrolling perspective included. I'm looking forward to more gameplay footage!

I swear sometimes it makes everything go quiet just before something enormous explodes, which ends up being pretty awesome every time it happens.

Agreed, Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light was a lot of fun, especially coop. A friend and I had no problem enjoying it multiple times to get the unlockables. I would definitely recommend it.

I haven't understood the debate I've read about the amount of destruction in BF3. I've felt that there is just as much destruction in BF3 (many buildings are completely destructible) it just takes more time. I believe that if DICE didn't strategically limit some of the destruction 64 players would reduce most maps to a flat, uninteresting mess before a match was a quarter of the way complete. The destruction is there, it just requires more time and ammunition. Not every wall needs to come down just because a grenade landed next to it.

I thought it was Day 1 as well, but I looked around afterward and saw that it was well publicized that it was to be released later. Apparently I was too blinded by the thought of new Karkand and Wake Island maps to concentrate on the rest of the details.

It's the wrist strap on the wiimote I believe.
