I'm Ron Burgundy?
REALLY!? A game's full fledged map editor is better than Halo 3's FORGE!?!?! INCONCEIVABLE!

But in all seriousness, a full map editor with bots would definitely make me dust off Halo 3.
I know! When this game first came out I wasn't going to get it(wasn't thrilled with the open world), but after hearing about all this great new content they are adding I picked it up for $20 on Gamefly.

P.S. The open world takes some getting used to but it is fun after a while.
It's more like PS3 fanboys are republicans and Joystiq is an unbiased news station. :p
How can the voice acting for the main character be so terrible?

He sounds like a bad Jack Nicholson impersonator with a hangover.
I know, right? Just like Halo's recharging shield gimmick, Gears of Wars cover gimmick, and Spore's creature creator gimmick.

Too, bad I won't ever pick those games up... Oh, wait, I did pick them up, and they ROCKED. :]
What are basing that on, Fable 1? That games had ONE decent sidequest(Lady Gray) everything else was "go find three blue mushrooms to save my son" or "go kill a bunch of bandits/villagers."

Mass Effect let you talk your way through some sidequests, what will Fable 2 let you do, burp at people? :]
Because Portal was only 1/5 of the total Orange Box AND because Fable 2 is an RPG. Fable 1 took me 9 hours to beat INCLUDING sidequests.

I think that the shortest good RPG i've ever played was Mass Effect(about 15-20 hours). But I did play it through 3 times so the length is actually closer to 40-50 hours.

With any luck fable 2 will have a more Bioware system of good/bad choices to make it more engaging than fable 1's choices(Do you kill your sister and take the sword or do you chuck the sword, THAT'S IT!?!?)
"By removing the head or destroying the brain" to answer your question, haven't you seen Shaun of the Dead?
You have a portable Wii? Awesome!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
