[QUOTE="svenus97"][QUOTE="lightleggy"] GOT always plays the same BS trick where they show something completely interesting and shocking right at the end of an episode so that you feel hooked to watch the next one. Then, on the next episode, they dont deal with the previous episode's ending until like 20 minutes in and its solved in literally 1 minute or less.lightleggy

Like what? I genuinely want to know.

 

The moments are so unmemorable that I hardly remember them...but off the top of my head

[spoiler]

 when John Snow finds that savage sacrificing a baby or something like that, and then the guy is ambushed and knocked out by the guy, you go all like "OH CRAP, HE'S DOOMED, HE WONT GET AWAY WITH THIS ONE!".

Next episode they dont even mention Snow until like 20 minutes in and you find out that the guy pretty much just got his wrist slapped.

[/spoiler]

 

Every single episode builds up towards the ending and in the next one all the efforts and excitement are wasted when they just give 1 minute to the whole situation.

That example ending may not have been the most impactful ending of the series (although I still enjoyed it) but there are plenty of examples where episodes end that have bigger consequences.

[spoiler]

Off the top of my head there's the endings where Jaime pushes Bran out the window and Ned Stark's death in Season 1. Then there's Mel's shadow baby ending an episode in season 2. While Season 3 so far has had Jaime loosing his hand, Dany getting her Unsullied, and the Lannister sit down between Tywin, Tyrion, and Cersie

[QUOTE="Michael0134567"][QUOTE="RR360DD"]Lets hope it scores higher than 7.5 this time :lol:RR360DD

Let's hope Halo 4 scores a 10 so the Xbox 360 will finally have an exclusive with a 10.

Halo games score 10 on plenty of sites ... unless you mean specifically one site gamespot in which case who cares :lol:

Skyward sword scored plenty of 9's and 10's on other sites... unless you mean specifically one game site gamespot in which who cares :lol:

And did they really leave out the siblings guiding Bran? Lame if so...

Chutebox

They are going to be cast for next season. So they'll be there just a little later than in the books.

While not a bad ending i was disappointed with the gears 3 ending

Bread_or_Decide

Seeing a lot of people say this...after the critics went gaga for how "omg amazing the story is!!!" I knew they were just over reacting. Typical bad gears story telling...as expected.

He said he was disappointed with the ending not that it was a bad ending... so how exactly do you get bad storytelling out of that??

I loved the gears 3 ending though, was a great way to end it and the game infact had pretty good storytelling with a great story to end the trilogy.

Not only looks better than Uncharted 2, it also seems to surpass the 3rd one!

Enough said!

Are you comparing SP to MP?? Gears 3 MP beats U3 MP at this point, as for the SP's we don't know for sure yet cause not much has been released of Gears 3's campaign and the leak is a far from finished product.

[QUOTE="ZimpanX"]

Is this being played on the "Café" perhaps? Cause that button promt looks just like the A button on the Wiimote except it looks way to good to be the Wii version.

jamejame

I thought the same thing, but there's also an X button, I don't think Nintendo consoles have those do they? The button prompts are likely based off the new greyscale buttons on the newer 360 controllers.

The SNES and Gamecube have X buttons, as well as the Classic Controller for the Wii, so the Cafe might have an X

[QUOTE="kobedaGOAT"]

This truly boggles my mind. I look at CoD as a game where the better player wins a battle. Majority of the killstreak rewards in BO can easily be avoided if you exactly know what your doing. RC CAR? Gimme a break. I been playing for about 10 days and can count on one hand how many times I've been killed by one. Napalm? Probably been killed slightly more. Chopper Gunner? Those are dropped now a days in a matter of seconds. So what it comes to is who is the better shot. AKA the more skilled player. Now lets look a Gears. I can active reload my shotty and kill just about anyone by randomly blasting. Trust me, I do it in the beta often. So does 90% of the community. Or I can be a unskilled noob and grab the mortar gun and get about 6 kills. Grenade tagging walls ensures a kill or two with no skill or effort. So does the digger being that you literally have to do nothing but point and shoot. In CoD, there is not running from a fight. In Gears, ducking assault rifle fire, is so easy its laughable. I love both games, but to call CoD nooby and thing Gears "is for da hardcore" is asinine....CoD takes waaaaay more skill to be successful....

Ugh...they still have this crap in Gears 3? Lame.

It's not as bad as it was in Gears 2, not nearly as frustrating. the grenades smoke when tagged to the wall (even frags) and you have alittle more time to react before they go off. Plus they seem kinda harder to plant in some places but that might just be me, I rarely plant them so I could be wrong.
