MGR looks silly to be like a arcade hack n slash....not the MG i used to love. ME3....combat, movement, and graphics look sick but I play the ME series for the story, characters, and choice so lets hope its >= this action trailer. C&C looks like battlefield 3 which is great now lets hope bioware put ins great gameplay anf control. Last of US and Bioshock look interesting but I will wait and see....the early bioshocks grabbed me with their atmosphere/story and unique combat freedom. Last of Us has a I am Legend feel to it as it doesn't seem all about zombie hordes but more about survival against all things and kind of a human story of how living in such a world robs us of our humanity and replaces it with an inteligent animal nature. Haven't watch the others ...yet.
you have to realize that there are some things you can't do because you chose certain augs and paths thats what makes choice important...it doesn't ruin anything you just have to negociate the obstacle in the way your Jensen is capable of. I usually dont have all the best combat stuff cause I use a ton of hacking and stealth. Or your great at combat but lack some hacking or stealth ability.
I have loved the game so far(on my 2nd playthrough) but I have 2 complaints: 1. Load times! and 2. some sound and control glitchs that will make sound repeat or stop and cover movement that can be a little jerky.
Some games stink at story telling but I would direct you to companies and writers who are improving that every game. Look at Bioware and games like God of War, Bioshock, Halo (is a great story but the games don't live up to the story). There are many more but there are many more gamers who just want to blow stuff up rather than know the why, how, and what are the repercussions of their actions. I for one want it all in my games.
