Wow... those one-liners were pretty terrible. Generic, stereotypical, sexist, and worst of all... not funny. I hope that's not indicative of the final product. Then again, I'm still only a fraction of the way through the original, so maybe I'm not their target market.

Yeah, I was pretty surprised at the gender stereotypes in the lines. A little disappointing.

Kinda backed into a corner on that anyway. The first one was all action movie quips and nonsense. This game needs those things to feel right, but nothing really makes sense.

What...an...entitled...dickhole
Hi Twisted Pixel Games, Ms. Splosion Man - my opinions? You should turn down the voice a bit. Splody was more subtle, and not as high pitched which is more grating on eardrums. Also, the fact the trailer has some 'great women's lib defeating' one-liners repeated in it in it's short 2 minute runtime brings fear to what it will be like to sit though the entire game. Look what made Splosion Man great, and improve on it. CJ was a step in the wrong direction, IMO - please course correct.

Remember, when it comes to man vs. woman relationships in marketing, the woman is always smarter, cockier, stronger and funnier than the man. The man is just a dope.

Needless to say, I don't enjoy many romantic comedies.

Is there any point in getting beyond good and evil hd if you already own the originbal? I have it on ps2 and have yet to play it. Is it worth a lot these days so maybe I should just sell it on ebay?

Double Fine's next XBLA game: Trenched. Looks interesting, but your customized mech takes up way too much of the foreground.

I sold my GC copy for about $30 when this was announced. If you can get more than $20 for it, I'd sell. If you haven't played the PS2 one yet, why not trade it for cash and a better looking version that doesn't take up physical space?

Reach on demand already? Sad to say but I may bite on that just for the convenience of having it on the hard drive.

Think it'll be $20? Seems like it'll come out at more like $40 or $60 like RDR did.
