Yeah, you pretty much described my opinion on it now. But I also bought The Killer so it wasn't a total waste.

Well, they're a big part of why the respawns are so annoying. Games tend to be

1. Everyone charges into a ridiculous chokepoint
2. Almost everyone dies
3. Everyone respawns at once, in the same place
4. Everyone charges into a ridiculous chokepoint

It's like trench warfare in miniature.

I've just got back from seeing The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. Best frakkin' movie I've seen all year, and its as every bit as good as the original.
It was good...until they completly screwed up what happened to the girl they were looking for, GGRRRRRRRRR!!!!! I couldn't figure out what happened until I looked the movie up online. SPOILER WARNING:



Hariet(sp) assumed a relative's identity and is living in London now, the relative being dead. In the book, Hariet went to Australia and the relative is allive and in London. So stupid, especialy since the book explained why the flowers came from all over the world.

I'm kicking myself for not buying Skyrim. It looks sooo fucking epic.

It is soooo fucking epic. I mean, it's like everyone cool part of Conan (not the shitty remake) with five types of elves and dragons. It's good stuff, I've sunk over 100 hours into it.
