I recently downloaded and tried Shogun 2. It was disappointing, and I've come to the conclusion that the only Sengoku-era games I want to play are Sengoku Basara-based or made by Koei.

Well, it seems that Sony Online Entertainment (fuck them, seriously, just fuck them) is closing down another MMO, next up on the chopping block.... Star Wars Galaxies.

Honestly I am not surprised by this, with The Old Republic MMO coming out, I was expecting to see an massive exodus from SWG to the Old Republic MMO.

Maybe I'm just biased against MMOs, but I expect any Star Wars MMO will be pretty crappy in the long run.

SWG wasn't that bad, but after the NGE upgrade, it went to shit.

That's not too bad, really. Nexon's games are all F2P with cash shops, and Combat Arms is actually really good. As long as they don't make most of the content cash-only, there's nothing wrong with it.

TF2 is also F2P, but I bet that's old news.

It'll be Hybrid: F2P/P2P(vip) with cash shops.

However, former subscribers that return as F2P will have a 'premium' account where they get to keep all their veteran rewards, unlocked Archetypes and extra character slots.

IIRC, there's a free one. Can't remember the name, though, and I've no clue if it was any good.

(Dead Frontier might have been the name, actually...)

That's one of them. And in my opinion, it just sucks. So damn cliched...

They should make one where its like Freedom Fighters yet you're up against cities full of zombies. The goal would be to kill every single zombie.

"Gay" for having one of the best systems ever made and one the most grossing systems ever released? Please, there are so many god damn classics for the PS2 it isn't "gay" to have it, it's a must.

Also, after reading my Game Informer I'm so hyped for ME3 and ES: Skyrim.

So far the Playstation 1 intro is unbeatable.

That intro was the shit! I loved that.

Who could forget the intros for these two companies:

Sega: SEEEEGGGAAAAAAAAA!!!!
Capcom: dingdongdingdungdingdongdingdungdi-dung!
A young merc terminally ill with cancer, I signed on for a government "human weapon" program: Weapon X. They got rid of the cancer like they promised...sorta...by melding an advanced healing factor to it. The gruesome experiments left me physically and mentally scarred, so they put me in a mental ward where the guards held a dead pool. I escaped and rose to infamy, partly a hero.

For falling in love with a physical avatar of Death, I was cursed with life. I pissed off a divine power so that I could be with her again, but it failed. After I got struck down by some powerful lighting, I came back to life...as a breathing corpse. Fuck.
