Welcome to what profit margins does to gaming. Gaming is a business pure and simple, and good guys finish last.

Well, except for BioWare. They seem to take great care to create an incredible experience every time, and succeed.

Blizzard too. They don't f**k up, but then again, they are PC-only.

[Keg]

developers like naughty dog are fantastic. improving their games with every sequel and not just churning them out for the sake of it.

Rebellion was young and hungry at one time too.  They might not be bad now, but after success very few avoid the mediocrity tag.

That will last until they need to get "fixed", "redirected" or "streamlined"... and those changes are already in the initial stages of happening. As development staff gets older, in many instances they start worrying more about job stability and environment rather than ridiculous levels of quality and fun, innovation and chance taking. Publishers are usually only too happy to oblige decisions like those in return for unilateral control of IP and $$$. It's really a very mercenary business to be in, any more.

Does anyone know what issue the DS2 GI was?

I had no idea about the sequel, it sounds really awesome.

January 2010 was GI cover story, the was also a Hub with some info. Mostly backstory. Search it on Kotaku, I THINK THEY HAD SOME GREAT INFO and links.

I have a grin on my face similar to that of the Grinch.

Looks pretty f#$king cool, but I gotta say im not a fan of Issac's new automatic helmet. A little too futuristic for me, thats what I liked about the first one yeah it was in space and all that stuff but it had a real feel to it but thats just me.

[DoomRulz]

That was so win. Reminds me of Iron Man.

Don't forget about Valve.

[DoomRulz]

Eh, I think Gabe Newell is a hypocrite. He will release his games on the PS3 but instead of addressing whatever issues they have, he'll comfortably sit and back and shit all over the console with his words, all the while forgetting that w/e limitations the PS3 versions of his games have, so do the 360 ones.

He is right;)

Mmmm... teaserish. Looks very cool.

Indeed. I never thought I'd see a retro/modern shooter fusion, but Halo: Reach is just around the corner, with it's sexy class system and jet-packs.
