Possible March 9 Announcement?

[RamiZ]

User starts a viral rumor that turns out to be false = temp ban

I post in a thread asking if a past-release-date replay pack had been released yet = permanent ban

Fuck TeamLiquid

No kidding... One of the guys I know posted a comment about some SCBW Vod, where he said how casters weren't professional and could do better cast than that, and he got banned.

Endings were, indeed, disappointing. Rest of the game was solid.

Wasn't as bad as I was expecting. At least it wasn't utterly cliche. I was expecting something like the following (stolen from Andrew on b.net forums):

ME3 begins with Shepard staring longingly at a picture of the Illusive Man. Throughout the game Shepard desperately tries to redeem the Illusive Man, forgiving him of his myriad of sins. The game ends with Shepard carrying a naked prone Illusive Man from the remains of a building. Illusive Man squints as Shepard bares him into the light, "Shep?" he whispers.
"It's okay, I gotcha," he replies confidently.

Jeez. What kind of professional game company would end their game with a corny ending like that? Sheesh.

If a game ever did that, I would burn my cop-- oh wait, I think I have a game like that. Which one was it? I'll scavenge my collection and see; I must burn it!
