Whatever you say, Hugo....


Its the best PC game of the last 3 years, one of the best games ever made. So yes a new load of missions for it is a huge release.

I haven't played CoH so obviously I'm not overly qualified to judge, but better than Orange Box? I find that hard to believe. Methinks you're over selling it a little, H.

Orange Box wasn't all new.

I'd say Company of Heroes was on a par with Half Life 2 (or Civ 4), when it came out yeah. Those 3 probably make up the best PC games of all time.

That's quite a claim, I may have to investigate this... assuming it'll actually run on my old rust bucket PC. :lol:

I've got StrongBad yet to start also (and the first W&G game). I love Telltale's stuff.

May have to actually spend my own money on XBLA for the first time since October this week. Flock and OutRun Online are both due right?

Nothing for me. Although, I might checkout Outrun 2 on XBLA.

Then again I might not.

It's not bigger than Resident Evil 5 though. You tell people they're mad all the time yet look at some of the shite you spout. :fp:

Except I'd say it is a bigger release. RE5 isn't actually all that good, of course its going to be a bigger seller, but RE5 is actually a huge letdown (compared to 4).
