The marketing team will live in infamy. They proved the old adage "you can't polish a turd" to be false. They sure did polish this baby real sweet like.
They also picked a nice shade of red lipstick for this pig of a port. *oink-oink /squeal!
Honestly? As a big fail.
After many weeks of not touching the game I logged in a few days back only to see no change at all.
After having spent a hundred bucks on that game (PC version + DLC pack), I can safely say that that was a ****ing waste of my money. Nothing else.

I think the music and opening sequence are particularly memorable. Up there with "Burn the land and boil the seas, you can't take the sky from me." It'll definitely be remembered for hellbugs.
But show or game, Datak Tarr is the most memorable character, to my mind.
