I mostly agree with Bob on this one. Doesn't hold a candle to any of the Lord of the Rings films, but still decent fun. I'd say the films mostly suffered from being produced as prequels to the Rings trilogy, thus meaning it had to meet expectations of a similar "epic" scope that ran contrary to...

Aye, that one. Now that I look at it, I agree with you that they could have done better on the lighting, the more shadowy look of the old one works more. Otherwise, I think the replacement of the old Emperor with Ian McDiarmid was a smart decision, especially as it now means that the Emperor is...

I agree, with the exception of rerecording the Emperor in The Empire Strikes Back. Unnecessary dialogue changes aside, I prefer the newer version of that scene. But the rest of the changes have, at best, been pointless and, at worst, detracted from the films.

Saw this earlier, Jabba's cameo made me laugh the most. It's a reference to this change from the Blu-ray version of Episode IV: http://cdn.screenrant.com/wp-content/uploads/Episode-4-R2-D2-Hiding-Behind-Rocks.jpg

Yeah, it's not very good. Let's Kill Hitler pretty much marked the start of the decline in Moffat's writing for the show. So if you weren't fond of the first half of Smith's tenure, you probably made the right choice skipping the second half.

Pretty much, yeah. I guess the title also alludes to the 'Teselecta' (a shape-shifting robot used to punish historic war criminals), which is an important element of the story, but both the setting and the Hitler cameo are still massively superficial.

This is a bit surprising. From my experience, the reaction to Capaldi's casting has been almost unanimously positive. I guess it's different outside the UK. Clara was a lot more developed and interesting in this episode than she has been previously. I never disliked her as such, but until...

I think you've gotten a few facts mixed up here. The First Contact War was only 26 years before the first game. Shepard (who is probably one of the youngest characters in the entire trilogy) was 29 in the first game. I think you'd be hard pressed to find a main character in the series who wasn't...

There's no single player DLC because they're focusing on the Extended Cut, which they said was planned for the generic release date of 'Summer'. They also said they had to push back all of their DLC plans to get this unexpected addition out of the way. Furthermore, Mass Effect 2 didn't have any...

I was on my third Mass Effect playthrough before I realised the Mako cannon thing. It also took me until my second Mass Effect 3 playthrough (and reading a GameFAQs post) that I realised you could re-map the "Y" power.

You know you've played a tad too much Mass Effect when your thoughts are broken up like Mordin's speech. You know you've played too much Call of Duty when you go to press R1 at the sight of someone appearing at the end of an alleyway.

Yay, I'm buying it for Xbox 360 (played the first two on it), so Origin is not a problem. All this will effect is if I get a secondary PC copy or not. Things like Origin and Online Passes do tend to discourage me from buying games, new at least. At the end of the day though, I'm a consumer...
