Because if you actually played Metal Gear on the NES, you'd know it was NOT a stealh game, but a side-scroller. MGS on PS1 introduced the stealth gameplay.

I'm fairly certain Warren Spector (thief 1/2/Deus Ex) begs to differ, but its not like the PC matters anyway....

This case retails for about $100, so its not a bad deal, considering its features.

There was surprisingly no heard vibration noise from the HD cage. I was expecting it due to its design, but it was not readily apparent. And I used a Seagate, which usually produces some of the louder drives out there.

Great review and I agree with you wholeheartedly. I played it on 360 and even there the controls can be frustrating, but the writing is awesome and the videos are hilarious.

WMP allows for Higher Resolution and better quality. I'm pretty specific in my reviews, like when pointing out small objects and whatnot, and flash compression tends to leave videos as a pixellated mess.

Unless they had the game prior to the public release date.

They most likely did. A lot of publishers release review copies of a game a week or so prior to release so the reviewer can do their thing and get it written up for release on or around release day. Quite common nowadays.

I'm going to go ahead and chime in on the "News Comments" fiasco here:

I got no problems with sarcastic comments from Brett, the one thing I've always enjoyed about our hobby is that most of us are sarcastic bastards who see through PR B.S. and just want the straight scoop. I'm glad to see someone who's not afraid to just say what everyone is already thinking.

Now that being said, Brett, your posts need formatting to better separate the your comments from the news you're posting about. As said above, using italics and quotations and links from your sources would go a long way to help. other than that, keep on trucking man.

Good review, although you kind of spent too much time telling us how it wasn't like Thief and not enough time taking the game for its own merits.

Although I'd probably rate it the same as you did, I strangely enough really enjoyed the whole game. I do understand why its pegged as repetitive, cause it is, but I really like those parts of the game...except for the eaves dropping thing. That was just idiotic.

And the post-assassination dash across rooftops was always my favorite part too, hehe.

Don't agree with it, but when subscription numbers start dwindling, you have to do something to offset costs.Think of it this way, either they throw ads in there or raise the subscription rate. Which would you rather have?

Actually, it be nice if they gave users the choice.

Is that a question or a statement? Was it an insult towards me? Cause, I mean, you do know I'm not actually yoda, right? I'm sorry to break this to you, but he was a fictional character...that means he doesn't exist. Just thought I'd break that to you.

Warhammer 40K = unknown sci-fi MMO based on the coolest sci-fi setting ever.

Word man. 40k has some of the deepest backstory of, I have a hard time keeping it straight. It's really perfect for an MMO setting. And who doesn't want to charge from a Land Raider into battle wielding a thunderhammer and storm shield?

Sorry, I'm a huge 40K dork and I have the Space Wolf and Imperial Guard armies to prove it. :-D

DoW is developed by Relic. THQ only distributed it. But you're right, I'd love to hear something about it, especially if the tyranids are in it...nasty buggers.

I hear ya. Although I couldn't care less if it had you playing as generic ultramarines, I'm glad THQ is doing it and they are taking their time with it.

Not that I'd normally agree with Traiterous Chaos Scum such as yourself, hehe. :-D

Smitty, weren't they some new multiplayer game modes as well or was I mistaken?

Seeing as this is as close to a Burnout game we'll ever get on PC, I'm excited, even if it just Flatout 2 with better graphics. Flatout is still one of the most fun racing series on PC, especially with a wheel.

How many of those Halo 3 copies went to consumers and how many went to rental outlets (Blockbuster, GameFly, etc...)?

Yep. I enjoyed MoH Airborne myself, surprisingly. Felt like going back to the Allied Assault days. Lots of fun.

It was exactly like CoD 1-3...except different war...improved multiplayer...new weapons...new gameplay...different time period....but totally, completely the same as CoD 1-3...
