It has a sorta futuristic mystical fantasy about it. A lot of the guns have clear inspiration from real guns. So far, I'm using a gun that looks like a bullpup AK in a DMR role.

You should've seen the first game. The first gun you get is literally an AR carbine with a bunch of futuristic attachments on it, Elysium-Style.

And in the Expansion, they added a whole manufacturer of realistic weapons, including what was a combination of an ARX160 with a SCAR-H.

No it isn't, it's a clusterfuck and you have to make sure everyone stays roughly the same level

Huh. Interesting. I'm not going to say that The Predator will immediately suck because it has a suburban setting. At least its doing something different this time around. And I already love the new cast that the movie has, with a lot of quality actors.

And I admit that I loved and enjoyed that other Predator related movies that have come out (except for Aliens vs Predator: Requiem. That movie was a piece of shit).

If it is anything like Predator 2, I'm down for it

I second that.

You know a franchise is in a death spiral when it goes into "ignore the prior movie" mode. The Terminator franchise has done that at least twice now.

I just watched Genisys a few weeks ago, and I rather liked it. I think it may have lost a few casual viewers with some of the time travel explanations, but it didn't seem too outlandish if you're used to sci-fi. There's only so many ways to explain why a T-800 would look like a man in his sixties, and I think they pulled it off nicely.

The Terminator series really should have ended with T2. It changed the timelines and left the ending opened and then they made several more other ones including a sorta near future thing with Salvation, which I kinda liked until Skynet was turned into an evil Helena Bodham Carter

Yeah, I like to pretend that the Terminator films end with T2.

Also, is Skynet in Genysis has gone from evil Helena Bongam Carter to evil 11th Doctor?
