    At PAX East 2010, I managed to play the game for a good sitting and after about 20 minutes of talking to a dev, I'm sold. It has a lot of aspects of many games like the crossfire mode which makes me think of something like Defense of the Ancients, League of Legends, or Heroes of Newerth, a class system and look that reminds you of TF2 and class customization that reminds me of Call of Duty, and a few things that remind me of some Unreal Tournament games. I will definitely buy this game when it comes out, and I am also one of the many who want a PC version of the game since I am a PC gamer.

    Anyways, back to the topic at hand. One thing I haven't seen people compare the game to is something that the game reminds me of. The whole setting, mascot, and announcer all remind me of the Ratchet and Clank Franchise. This pops out at me and makes me want that feel. I am posting this in hope for added voice and comments for the Announcer. I would definitely like to see some dumb, funny, and out there comments from the announcer as the game progresses and things happen.

    Any Comments?

    There was actually announcer comments in the games played at PAX. Unfortunately it was so loud there, you probably never heard them.

    Can you somehow incorporate the PAX East announcer into the game? Something about the shades, bad hairpiece and the beige sportcoat really worked for me.

    I don't know if you ever SEE him in game, but that guy actually is the announcer. If he's not...then he lied to me.

    Actually the announcer at PAX was yours truly and I thank you for your compliments. I am not the voice of the announcer in the game, however. His voice is far superior to mine and his dialog is much better written than my off the cuff remarks. And what exactly do you mean when you say hairpiece? That is my real hair and I demand an apology.

    maybe...

    I heard a few things but they were just messages saying stuff like the money ball defenses were down or my money ball was being attacked. Other than that I didn't hear anything so maybe.


    Also, you were pretty amazing announcing the matches. (that I wasn't playing since the headphones shut you out)

    The Pit Girl was telling you about the Moneyball shields being down. The announcer is a male voice that comments when specific things happen in the game. I'm surprised you didn't notice. Again, thanks for the compliments. I had a great time doing it.

    It is a pleasure to ponder on the past events and anticipation for this most excellent of games; such naiveté about the wonderful Michael Cantor that we know and love.

    This has nothing to do with Alex Trebek.

    I'm sorry: the question was "Who is Skill?"

    Why make a smell and then retract it?
