Well I didn't expect to come away with a month and a half of diarrhea. There's some good stuff to see there like The Taj Mahal and Amber fort etc but you have to wade through a lot of crap to get to it. Some cities are better than other, but the image you get of India on tv is a minority view. It's haves and have nots, only there are probably 80% have nots. Men would be freely pissing on the streets in some cases, half naked kids doing the same. One kid took a dump by the side of the road and, mid-dump waved at us as we drove by. At one point there was a baby wild pig hot footing it down  main road. Monkeys attacked us at a hotel, two were humping outside one of the guests rooms next door.

Not only that, they tried to break into our room. I got a photo face to face with a monkey point blank at the windows. They saw a banana through the window on the table and even skirted around and tried the back window.

P.s some GAF dude is saying Deus Ex wii u will be shown on Wednesday.

I'd be much more interested in some kind of exclusive, side story Deus Ex for Wii U. No matter what kind of cool Gamepad shit they add, I would not re-buy Human Revolution on the U.

Those monkeys sound crazy...good shit.

Hmm, not sure that's a good thing.  That's when they started taking more risks and publishing some great games which were not simply yearly installments of Madden, Fifa, Need for Speed and Medal of Honor ... ie all safe and all about the bottom line.  As a gamer, I care about good games not about some megacorp's profits.

Peter Moore will get to run a game company again, no doubt. (He is currently COO if you lost track of where he is these days).

EDIT: Gamasutra sums it up:

Riccitiello's tenure at EA had some highs, but it ultimately will likely be remembered more for the lows when all is said and done. EA has gone head to head with Activision on a few fronts in recent years, and has lost every time in the arena that investors care most about: profits. (We can debate the creative impact of some of those titles all day, but make no mistake, this was a decision that was made entirely on the basis of EA's financial performance.)


It's tough to say exactly where things really started to go wrong for Riccitiello and EA. Some point to The Beatles: Rock Band – which was widely expected to be a monster hit, but fell short of expectations. Others note the gamble on a rebooted Medal of Honor series, which both failed to find an audience or impress critics.


Still others points at last year's Star Wars: The Old Republic, reportedly the most expensive video game ever created, which fell flat soon after its launch and forced EA to transition it to a free-to-play model – an embarrassing move for a title that management spent years promoting as a World of Warcraft killer.


Ultimately, though, Riccitiello's downfall probably had little to do with any one of the company's games. It was more about his slowness in reacting to change.


EA has been the flag bearer for big console games and ignored the space for far too long. By failing to see that sea change coming, Riccitiello probably sealed his fate long ago.

I always liked Peter Moore so it would be interesting to see how things go.

Also yes Vader Tomb Raider is 9/10 good.

Retro City Rampage must be the least web-documented game that got a commerical release.  No-one must have bought it.

Same topic, Serious Sam 3 also has very little FAQ participation.  I feel so dumb, I am walking around endlessly in a tomb.

EDIT: Turning up the brightness to blinding helped that problem.

So, apparently, GameStop has adopted a "No Street-Date" philosophy. Sounds great, right?

Wrong. It basically means they'll no longer commit to a Street Date for games. You give them your money, they'll get you your game "Sometime in the week after it ships from the Manufacturer."

Unless a title is SUPER-HUGE they are no longer willing to give a firm date and will no longer pay for next day delivery.

Yeah, I pre-ordered Lego City. Yes, it was supposed to be out TODAY. Now, they have no idea when they are getting it. Order cancelled.

I'm still pissed at Peter Moore for his "Things break." comment disregarding the 360 RRoD issue before MS finally owned up to it.

Another reason why I really couldn't care less if they went out of business. I have Bioshock Infinite pre-ordered with them. After that game, I'm done with Gamestop. I see no reason to support them anymore considering Amazon, Best Buy, and Target all offer much better service.
