I set you up..

And the gaming industry punches you in the craw.

If you were unaware of my current upcoming-game obsession, which, based on my stellar record of pre-release recommendations (STALKER, Spore, APB), can't help but be a glorious Hindenberg of a letdown, it is Guild Wars 2.


Let's go down the Cyrus-is-about-to-break-all-of-your-hearts-by-telling-you-to-buy-a-sure-to-be-shitty-game checklist:
-seasoned development team with at history of solid games under their belts (Diablo 2, WoW network programming, Guild Wars): check
-awesome looking videos, concept art, and screenshots: check
-exciting and ground breaking game concept: check (NCSoft even wrote their own MMO manifesto)
-obscene level of excitement over the game on my own part: definitely

So, following the trend, there is no way this can't be the worst game you will ever play ever. Seriously, it will be a huge let down and you will all cry and vomit intermittently (and interminably) if you buy this game.

So yeah, go ahead and look this up. It's surefire.

Oh, and since GW2 is TBA with an expected release date in 2011, if you need another game recommendation to shit all over your life, it shouldn't be too long before Brink comes out. Check that out too.

And remember, even though, as a person, I love you guys, as the host for the undying demon of disappointment fuck every pet you will ever own ever. I fucking love to see you guys unhappy.
