[Anuban]

Looks like there will definitely be chainsaw battles folks so get ready to rock and roll ... its not going to be so easy to cut your opponents into little bits.

yeah, that's actually one of the best he's drawn in a while

but i think it points out the problem: after this announcement people expect something huge because cliffy said it's going to be all that bigger and more badass and all that. they don't have a clear image of these bigger and more badass things, but they expect them nevertheless. but i think the way in which it's going to be bigger and more badass is installation size, bigger and more monsters, advanced graphical effects and there's gonna be some chainsaw moves like in the teaser. but apart from that i don't see epic changing the game (read: gameplay) significantly because then people would start bitching like hell.

edit: imo tim buckley did a great job painting cliffy btw
