I strongly disagree with you. If you haven't played the game, you can't really speak on any "lack luster" effort. We are talking about a game that is by most accounts better than 95% of all the products out there and a developer that a large consensus of the gaming community would put in the top five in the world. Yes, the ending may be the subject of various opinions, but over all I really believe people are making too much of this.

I can kind of see it like the original Star Wars movie trilogy. The first one was new and fresh, the second one awesome, and then Jedi was good based on the material, but had an ending that was so-so or just sucked depending on your opinion. I still wouldn't trade the experience.

In the end I just want to sit back and enjoy the opportunity to play a game or series of games worth playing while trying not to become too judgmental.

Of course if these guys start cranking out material on par with the Phantom Menace than I will be happy pass out the torches and pitchforks.

My first thought would have been that royalties would have been based more on sales than a Metacritic rating. Just a thought due to the fact that from a business stand point the bottom line is sales.

Unless I can kill said monkeys, not interested... and I don't mean falling off of some silly grid. I want to see messy dismemberment.

Nostradamus FPS with Zombies!

Glad to hear it is based on the comic and not the TV show. I had a vision of a game with 5 minutes of zombie fighting followed by 45 minutes of whiny ass conversation choices with the mass effect wheel as the pacing for the story. Thankfully, I can now remove that vision and allow this game to suck on its own merits.

Brain Freeze!

The handling of content by EA and the marketing of this game are giving me that totally whored out vibe like the hot chick who became less hot when you realized just how many penises she has seen.

Don't get me wrong, I like the game and respect the developer and I did buy the CE so I like whores to an extent. Who doesn't? But, damn EA is whoring to a new level with this one.

Tired premise + Recycled material.= Bargain Bin

Tony Hawk = Brett Farve of video games.

Please. Let. It. Go.

I am playing it and I like it. Best surprise for me since I tried Borderlands.
