  5. That won't work. on Do Gamers Want Simpler Games? · · Score: 2, Funny

    I am sorry, but DX:IW is the very definition of a bad game. It is quite literary the "Highlander 2" of video games.

    The "detainees" are either criminals or they are prisoners of war.

    Do I read that right? If they haven't been found guilty of anything, they are automatically prisoners of war? Thank goodness nobody innocent ever got locked up!
