Halo 3 FTW, WaW Unseats CoD4

A more talkative Nathan Hale this time around. One of the additions to Resistance 2 is also a big subtraction from Resistance: Fall of Man. Yes, Nathan Hale no longer being a mute is a good thing for Resistance 2, but I preferred the quiet mysterious Hale from RFoM.

I don’t always like what Bill Maher has to say, but I love the fact that he’s always practicing something called “freedom of speech”. Although the video is real funny, it’s not actually from Call Of Duty, but whoever thought the mainstream media knew anything about games anyway?
