I am not as impressed with the screens, I don't see how gamers will identify with a middle-aged chuby man.  They're taking a great risk with the direction, but we'll have to wait to see if it resonante with gamers.   We know the story will be good, the gameplay will likely be solid, the graphics will be just okay, and it may have a passable multiplayer.  I don't see a potential breakout hit, I see something similar to Bully, Red Dead, or Manhunt here.

Their biggest mistake was dropping Remedy after MP2, it wasn't their fault the game didn't perform as well, they did a great job with the PC version.

T2 just can't continue to operate with this structure and produce 1-2 million sellers that either just break even or eek a small profit, they really need one or two 3-5 million sellers other than GTA that can plug the hole of GTA may leave every couple of years.
