To the guy below, if you think a 100+ hour experience is an expansion pack then I don't know how you'll ever get anything enjoyable out of this gaming industry.

So it's a massive expansion pack. But it's not a "new" game IMO. Same look, same feel, same everything. What, they traded greenish/gray for grayish brown? Still dealing with fucking giant scorpions everywhere you go? Beh.

Look at Quake vs. Quake II, Half Life vs. HL2, those were sequels. These days, Bioshock, GoW, etc, nothing but long expansion packs for the most part.

And you're right. I don't hardly ever get anything enjoyable out of this gaming industry. Maybe one title per year ends up being worth my time/money. At least the GTA sequels still change engines (or use upgraded versions) and are handled by the same developer.
