It had to happen, right?

I can understand if they just with all digital content and no physical media, but to mix both made no sense. Now if only they'd make it backwards compatible...

Eh, I still wouldn't want to buy a console from a company that thought that was a good idea in the first place.

It'd be nice if they dumped the Kinect requirement as well. I barely use the one I have now.

I always expected them to backtrack a bit, but not this early. With no Halo game at launch, I'm probably going to wait a year or two after launch after prices go down.

Did they have to pick such an unflattering picture?

Liam Neeson is going to find out, that's for sure.

Playing The Last Of Us. Single player is long and very difficult, but very rewarding and a rich experience. And it takes a lot of thought to get through, especially since there's no Mook Chivalry where enemies wait their turn to attack so you can skillfully counter them; they just all attack at once, including shooting you repeatedly when you're in melee combat.

Multiplayer? Totally different from most other shooters. You only start with about 7 to 10 rounds for each of your weapons (in some cases that isn't even a single full magazine), so stealth and accurate shooting are the key. It only takes two or three shots from most guns to drop a guy as well, so running and gunning is nearly useless (you have to walk to shoot anyway). There's a lot of sneaking around in groups, setting up ambushes, and laying traps behind you.

Or bum rushing the last guy and beating him to death with 2x4s.
