It could be utterly superb, with the best characteristic being the immense freedom. Or it could be a broken mess.

I really, really, really hope it's the former.

Moonstone, obviously. Cutting off knights' heads with my broadsword? Cleaving a swamp beast in two? Cutting open trolls' heels? Slaying a fucking dragon?

The game had it all. 4-player too.

PC: Company of Heroes

360: Gears of War

PS2: Shadow of the Colossus

DS: Pheonix Wright

Blood Money gets an honourable mention on all the major platforms for being superb. Mazzle dazzles.

I think he put the I there by mistake.

ZING! Nah, honestly, it's in safe hands at Gearbox, scriptwriting included. Given that Aliens is my favourite film ever, I've got a lot of potential enjoyment staked in this, and I'm hoping it channels AvP 1's moody shit-your-pants terrorvision than AvP 2's fun-but-cartoony romping.

It's bloody amazing. The 3D skybox alone blows my mind.

ZING!

Sounds like you're a bit confused on the whole composite/component thing.

Composite gives a pretty horrible picture, RGB scart is quite decent but only component gives you progressive scan. With LCD TVs, they really don't handle an interlaced signal too well so anything less than component is going to look mediocre.

I thought it was a FPS/RPG single-player hybrid too?

My 360 is treating me well, and while I want a Wii, money and lack of games (Zelda is my only want) means I'll wait until Summer 2007 for that treat.

Fuck getting a PS3 though.

Yeah, the Edge review seems way off to me.

Aim maps are the cancer of the online multiplayer world.

Sounds and looks pretty fucking good. So good in fact that I can forgive the use of a number instead of the proper word.

Here's hoping it lives up to the potential of what Resident Evil: Outbreak could have been.

Well there we go then!

Any reason why the multiplayer graphically pales in comparison to the singleplayer? It still looks like UE3, just less... tasty.

It doesn't bother me because it plays great, but a lot of people out there are bitching about it.

Multiplayer absolutely kicks ass. Sadly I was on a server where we seemed to be having real problems with the mics - nobody acknowledged they could hear me, yet I could hear other people saying "Hello, can you hear me?" quite a few times, so god knows what was going on there. Despite the lack of communication though it was great fun. It's great to see one of these games actually retain the hugging cover feature in multiplayer since the ubi games tend to remove it.

It's a known bug, happens to everyone sadly. Join a game after it's begun and no-one will be able to hear you. And the lack of Halo 2's party system to this and there lies the (small) problem with multiplayer.

Of course, co-op and versus in this are absolutely phenomenal, so it's easy to overlook minor bugs and missed chances.

Really looking forward to this. The demo was class and the multiplayer, especially co-op, should be a bloody treat.

You've earned a medal, Klein.

Company of heroes

YEAH BOYEEEEEEE.

I'm on its last mission, and it is without doubt the finest RTS ever made. Superb in every respect.

Sony Ericsson K750i.

Does the job nicely.

Mmmmmbop.

Nate-dog sold out. I think I might cry.
