Guys, please, stop it! Everyday I'm struggling not to click on this fucking topic but it's always on the front page. Whenever I lose I'm struggling not to read what you guys are posting. I only watched the first trailer, nothing more. I was immediately sold. I don't need this people. I have to wait until Wednesday morning before I can enjoy it in Imax. Still, I lost control again and read the last post. Fuck you guys for having me constantly in the state illustrated beneath, it's not funny! Thrik, please lock this thread!

This was a helpful discussion and I certainly learned something but you know, I follow this topic. So when my mailbox flooded with notifications about new posts I came here looking for screenshots and then:

Even FMPONE started cockteasing in the status updates. Shit is getting ridiculous!
Word! I think I'm not even half way through the SP campaign. I'm just having a blast doing random events, having shoot outs with the cops, driving people over, hitting people, flying, diving, fucking strippers, pimping rides, etc.
I haven't tried it yet. You guys are just too eager. I'm patiently gonna wait until all this bullshit blows over.
I'm looking at that picture (first one, posted by Helder)... do you remember Paul Jaquays, Q3 level designer? He changed a bit.
WTF? I remember that dude from Mapcenter. Didn't see this coming.
It's either intentional or that last comment really wasn't thought through 
The Valve community is huge and extremely talented. It has the biggest mod successes and it's filled with guys that have gone pro due to working on custom Valve stuff. Which makes you wonder, why didn't anyone start a Half Life 3 mod? You have people that dissected the entire story line:

So why not go from there? I did a quick Google search but nothing.
Quote from ThrikThat's it, Ubisoft is fucked.
Why? They only licensed his name for promotional purposes. It's not like that's about to change now.
Too bad he died though. I love his work.
It's probably naive to think we can actually play it online this week. No way the servers are gonna handle that much traffic properly.
This is beautiful man. Congrats. I'm gonna check it out.
Are you flirting with me? Because if so:

It's like this post was written by me.

Although a bit off topic, but still, it is this thread that brought me to this rant.
Nintendo has always excelled in clearing out your wallet. The Wii was cheap for sure. But if you need extra stuff (nunchucks and Wii motes anyone?) you would pay a fair price. Combine all that together and the Wii was actually a pretty expensive system. The only reason they got away with it because the fanboys will pay it anyway and most of the stuff, you really needed. Just look at the second hand market for old Nintendo systems. Look at what they dare to ask for Gamecube, NES or SNES games. You can probably buy 5 Genesis games for 1 SNES game. Trust me, I know (this is the case in the Netherlands but Ebay gives the same impression worldwide). The same goes for the pricing of games. It's not like the Windwaker is new in this. Hell, it's not even that expensive since the original still goes for around 40 on the second hand market.
A friend of mine is a diehard Nintendo fan. Something I don't get. I loved Nintendo as kid but I quit in the Gamecube era. Another Mario? Another Zelda? Another Metroid? Another Donkey Kong? Yes, there are excellent games in those series and yes, they do try to keep innovating them but I just grew tired of it. Regardless of what new features they introduced it always felt the same. Perhaps I'm the only one in this, I don't know. My friend called me all excited about the new Mario. I played it and thought, nice graphic overhaul. Lost interest in 5 minutes. I'm not hating, I just don't understand why older gamers don't grow tired of it. The new generation I understand. Hell, if I have kids I'll buy them Nintendo too. Wait...does this mean.....no.....did I simply.......grow up????
But seriously, who in they're right mind launches a system which is not that much ahead of the current generation (which is 7 years old) without a killer lineup to sell it? Yeah, a gamepad with a screen. Nice gimmick but I didn't pay a shitload of money for a big screen TV to game on a small screen. If I wanted that I would have bought a 3DS. Anyways, enough ranting. You guys have fun though.
TL:DR - Fuck Nintendo, You guys enjoy it!

The mystery isn't solved but there might be some spoilers for people. Worth a look though.
