New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)

Assassin's Creed II has better gameplay and a more open world, God of War and Bayonetta have superior combat systems, and Mass Effect 2 has an infinitely better story. Which is not to say that 2 was a bad game, but how can it be one of the best games of all time when it wasn't even one of the best games of its time?

Anyway, sounds like I should probably skip 3 given my opinion of 2.

I think you are in the minority in your opinion but you have a right to it.

Oh, no question about that. If we are going by consensus Uncharted 2 is top 5 games of all time. But is it fair to say I probably wouldn't like 3? It's not different than 2 right?

I think you answered your own question.
