whoa. D's friend brought over Prototype. That is some fucked up shit.
May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Pete showed me that game when I was last up in Seattle.

Yup, ultraviolence that's completely unapologetic.
I loved it.
And the more powers you get, the more unpleasant ways there are to kill - or absorb - things.

When you smash someone and then walk away while absorbing their energy it is quite disturbing... slowly absorbing a flailing leg.
Now D's playing Wolverine. In a lot of ways it's even grislier.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

This was Mallory's brute's toughest fight yet -- two brutes, two bears, one survivor...
I loved how the bears fell within seconds of each other.
Man, Malficum is a serious Brute. Seems to be - unsurprisingly - rising meteorically.

Malificum's fights tend to be two hit affairs -- the opposing brute gets hit by the bear and then hits the ground.
Seriously, they rarely last more than two exchanges, and Malificum has lost only one fight. In one of the recent tournaments, Malificum beat an 11th and 12th level opponent, before being beaten by a 10th level brute who was smart enough to ignore the bear and simply beat on Mal.
I don't think game balance was a serious consideration in the design of this game...
