I hope Crash feels better quickly. -- nm - tl Feb 20, 17:15
I do need to watch the KZ demo again, since my feed was choppy during the demo. -- nm - Shaun Feb 20, 17:08 2
- That was the only one I was intrigued by. Drive Club looked pretty, but meh. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 20, 17:10 1
  - I never played the 1st one but 2 and 3 are two of my PS3 faves. -- nm - Shaun Feb 20, 17:12
Watching the video of this morning's freeway chase...thinking...you're the owner of the stolen SUV at watching the chase on TV as the CHP - Meg Feb 20, 17:07 4
- slightly better than watching them slam into a bridge at 100mph and roll multiple times into a drainage field - zeitgeist Feb 20, 17:24 1
  - I'm surprised this car even still had a working LoJack. It really wasn't in the best condition. -- nm - Meg Feb 20, 17:27
- my first thought is that they do not break my prescription sunglasses -- nm - peglegpete Feb 20, 17:11

Watch Dogs steals every show it's in -- nm - SG3 Feb 20, 17:06
All that and they don't show us the system it's going to run on? Huh?!? -- nm - Krusty Feb 20, 17:05 5
- guessing they are waiting till pax east, then e3, then pax prime, and will keep teasing us bit by bit -- nm - Truman Feb 20, 17:05 4
  - Seems so. Rather anti-climactic. I was hoping that was all leading up to the big reveal. *kicks dirt and walks away* -- nm - Krusty Feb 20, 17:07 3
    - honestly, i get that, but i think if they tease it out a bit more at pax east, then drop the details at e3, they get more coverage and possibly more - Truman Feb 20, 17:08 2
      - And I get that. I'm just a bit disappointed. Overall it was a pretty good show. Graphics look very nice and there are some interesting game in the - Krusty Feb 20, 17:12 1
        
        Agree with the price. I really think 399 needs to be the entry point. -- nm - Shaun Feb 20, 17:14

      - They could always do something like the disc to digital stuff where you put the disc in and it verifies you own it -- nm - Ender Feb 20, 17:14
      - Undetermined. Maybe they'll be an uploading capability via the PS3 to a cloud location. -- nm - Shaun Feb 20, 17:13
      - i dont know. there were rumors last year about both consoles give you credit towards games you already own for new purchase - Truman Feb 20, 17:13

- I personally drag Oregon down two shades. -- nm - Mop (190 lbs) Feb 20, 16:12 3
  - is Two Shades a new measure? How about Two Shades, One Nickfudge, and a half a Stacy -- nm - Jimmy Buffet Feb 20, 16:14 2
    - Half a Stacy is still a whole lot of Stacy. -- nm - Mop (190 lbs) Feb 20, 16:19
