It recognized God and Cthulhu, both of whom may or may not be fictional depending on who you talk to.
Yeah but their both pretty well known, and they don't have any copy-right protection covering them. I'm talking about thing's like Batman, Cloud Strife, or Robert Foster.
I feel old when talking to anyone my age yet too inexperienced to effectively talk to anyone older. Life is grand that way.

Hmm. That is a tricky one. I would suspect not though. The intellectual property issues involved would just be too numerous for any developer/publisher to deal with.

Well, I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm happy to see another Aliens vs. Predator game.

Yeah. AvP is pretty cool. I don't know how much coverage it got but I was happy to hear that Borderlands will have split screen co-op in addition to online.

I'm a fan of cell-shaded graphics, so I like the look of this Mini Ninjas game:


Also, Borderlands looks amazing with its cell shaded makeover:


Games that shoot for realism age quickly as the next even-more-real-looking game comes out, but cell shaded games allow for style. Actually, cell shading is getting better too. I think it allows for better facial expression control than realistic games because the expressions can be done with more traditional animation techniques.

Both those look pretty cool, I wish I could see some gameplay footage for Mini Ninjas.
