It's you MUA:2; not me

 I’m sorry MUA:2.  I tried to make this work.  But you’re half the game your predecessor was.  Half the characters, half the powers, half the costumes, half the levels, half the equipment, half the enemies, and most definitely half the fun.  Yes, you are really attractive but, baby, you are lacking substance.   A pretty face is good for a one night stand, but long time exposure to you has bored me the fuck out.  I’m done with you.  Be gone from my abode; I don’t want to play with you anymore. 

I fell asleep playing this game again.  I have it almost beat, but at this point, I have no desire to continue any longer.  They’ve taken almost everything that was interesting about this game and just made a straight beat ‘em up game.  Been there, done that, Castle Crashers did it better.  Now I just want to ship it off and look for the new fix. 

Borderlands is looking pretty damn cool and could fill the void that MUA:2 was supposed to fill.  4-player co-op FPS Diablo clone.  That just sounds cool.  I’ve seen some vids and I’ve played with the character leveling tool.  It all looks nice, but I am a bit worried about the pace of the game.  The vid I watched the team went around and killed little buggers for about 40 minutes.  Not quite the jolt I am looking for.  Sounds like it would be a great rental, but in order to get involved in a good on-line co-op group you need to be there on Day 1.  So...damn. 

Oh, one more thing.  You know how Microsoft has been raping customers with ridiculous prices for on-line attire for your special XBL avatar?  They got me.  I caved.  $4 spent for doll clothes for my little dude.  This is shit that I know nobody will ever even see little Drewsky wear because nobody uses that fucking Friends blade / zone because it takes too long for the Avatars to load.  Wasted money indeed.  But seriously, how could a pass up a royal robe and kick ass crown?  It had to be done in order to protect the legitimacy of my regal authority.  So, if perchance you do spy my little dude parading on your XBL interface, send him a mighty, “HAIL! KING DREWSKY!”  And I will reply with a kind, “Well met, Sir and/or Madam.”
