TNL's GotM: May 2007

You suck for picking that Etrian junk.

Forza alone made May a good month (has there ever been a better console racing sim or many better PC ones? no), just like The Darkness alone will make June a good month (next-gen CoR quality? yes please). Get that remake garbage out of here. RE4 is ass to look at these days, unless you're a Wii whore.

It's a solid dungeon crawler. Compared to an apparently not so solid Action RPG and a Racing game (I just don't really like racing games).

Wah.

Since the original version of those games are all better than Riddick, I disagree. Riddick was great, but the others are some of the best games ever.

I would agree. I definitely think that one should be a choice at a minimum.

o.O

That is a good point, but I would much rather take a fresh original and great experience over a rehash with added fake FPS controls or improved graphics. I'm still going to be buying RE4 and Ninja Gaiden Sigma (when I get a PS3), but I sure as hell don't care nearly as much about those then I do The Darkness. If only because I have already played through both of the games a handful of times.

Don't get me wrong, I really hope The Darkness is good enough to make me forget about the remakes. It's just a tall order.

June has an online Puzzle League game.

June is therefore the greatest month concievably possible.

Shadowrun's the only game on that list I played. Guess it wins by default.

I was going to post the same thing. In fact, the game comes out this week. Hells yeah! Too bad for my just-started Partners in Time game because that's going to have to wait.

My vote goes to Halo 3 Beta as well.

Didn't TRA come out in May? PC version did at least.
