No freaking way that MS releases a new console at the same time as Halo 4, which has been confirmed for 360. 2013 works for me! I love my 360. What happened to PS3's 10 year cycle? It isn't like the PS2 with its 200K install base. Once the PS4 comes out, new PS3 games will disappear.

But is it good enough to pull me away from Skyrim? I doubt it, but I will find out. Gamefly shipped it to me yesterday.

The development team that is working on Conviction is responsible for SC1 & Chaos Theory. Meaning, they make the good ones. It isn't by chance that Chaos Theory is one of my all time favorite games, but I couldn't bring myself to finish Pandora Tomorrow or Double Agent. I played the demo, it felt like a mix of SC and Arkham Asylum (which I 100% loved). It felt just a little bit clunky, but I think I just need to learn the systems (controls) better. I'm definitely excited for the full game.

I was an econ major and I was thinking the same damn question. I knew I should have paid more attention in class...

I'm happy to pay. Would have been nice for free, but I get we get some new achievements because we pay.

Question for the boycotters.

What should the sequel have that it doesn't?

- 5 New Campaigns (working in all modes)
- New Mode (yet to be revealed)
- Improved story with stronger narrative
- New Characters
- New Weapons (including a whole new class of melee weapons)
- New Ammo Choices
- New Zombie Types
- New Special Infected
- Improved Gameplay through balancing and level design (as learned from L4D and how the community plays)
- Improved graphics and damage modeling that factors into gameplay
- High potential for compatibility with L4D (I imagine like Rock Band 1 songs being downloaded to Rock Band 2)

Quit your F%&*KING whining! It is a sequel. Last I checked developers weren't in the business of releasing updates that are bigger and better than the original game.

The boycotters are likely the big fans of the original. Did you not get $60 value out of the original? I am willing to bet you did.

With the huge list of improvements for L4D2, you shouldn't have any trouble getting $60 value out of it either. Get a job, grow a pair, stop your stupid whining and buy and enjoy the game.

Holy crap he would be perfect. He looks, sounds, and acts like Drake.

Maybe it's just because I'm a fan and have been paying attention, but I think the word of mouth on Red Faction is much better the Prototype.

I have been playing inFamous too, it is also extremely awesome.

I bought Red Faction, enjoyed the crap out of it. Quality = High.

Read on IGN that they are thinking about including the the L4D levels on the same disc. That would be a deal.

Can't wait, haven't stopped playing L4D yet.
