If anyone whom has watched and is familiar with the tv show 'the wire' doesnt the Arkham City idea sound familiar with the 'Hamsterdam' idea which became prominent in season 3

Oh yeah and Modern Warfare 2. The attention to detail was unparalleled in shooters, the lighting was awsome, the scope was grand (if it was linear) and on consoles, the frame-rate was buttery smooth. IMO, definately one of the console FPS benchmarks.

[QUOTE="DrakeNOwns"]****SPOILERS BELOW**** v v v v v v v v v I don't get all of it yet, but will be seeing it again after hearing some thoughts. I understand how almost everything, like when he and his wife are in limbo and how he took her into a deeper dream, implanting an idea that messed her up back in limbo, and eventually, back in "reallity". Also, when Fischer goes under cardiac arrest (he was still alive) they end up having to go into a new dream, a deeper dream, in which fischer is okay. Leo's wife in that dream stabs him, and he also figures that Saido (forgot his name) is dead, thus in Limbo. Leo is also dying, so Ellen Pages character knows that he will meet him and Limbo and retrieve him. Saido, since he died first, is extremely old, explaining why Leo is still young. I dont understand how they get out of limbo. The ending blew my mind, because earlier in the movie, Leo explains that if his totem keeps spinning, he is dreaming, if it drops, its reality... The movie ends in mid spin, thus blowing every portions of my mind. Also, his children seem to be wearing the same clothes as in his dreams, as well as doing the same things, thus making me believe that all of this was a dream.. ***End Spoiler*** Consider my mind f*****Ignignokt104

***SPOILERS***

My friend that I saw it with couldn't tell whether or not it was really a dream at the end because he thought it looked like the totem was about to drop before the screen went black. Ultimately I think it's going to be left up to the viewer's interperetation and I love when movies do that. I'm not sure how Cobb and Saito woke up from limbo. Maybe the kick woke them up but it just took longer because they were a couple layers deeper than anyone else? I dunno. Also, the scene where Ariadne was learning how to become an architect and manipulate the environment completely blew me away.

***SPOILERS***

-SPOILERS- basically the only way to get out of limbo completely is for the person in limbo to commit suicide. What i can gather is that Saito killed Cobb in limbo, and then commiting suicide to himself therefore leaving Cobb as shown in the end through the totem is that Cobb is still dreaming.... -SPOILERS-

Well pretty much every time a game that is original and/or innovative is released gamers punish the well meaning devs by not buying it and instead spending their money of the next big shooter, rpg, racing game and so on. Sequels are praised for the tiniest things they improve, while original games instead of being praised for what they do well and for doing something new are picked apart and destroyed in reviews.

^ this, Metro 2033 is a very good example as well. Even though the game was a FPS it still brought new ideas to the FPS table, but reviewers such as IGN see right past the new ideas and risks taken by the devs and instead promote and praise mainstream garbage such as modern rehash 2
