You know what? Everyone can come up with gaming analyses. No seriously, everyone can do his/her homework and predict something. And quite frankly, we got tired of all those gaming analysts that try so hard to predict things that will a) never happen or b) that are 100% confirmed.

And of course, there will be a bunch of brand new STUFF too, including true rag-doll pedestrians and physics-based power-ups. Stainless has released a ‘Thank You’ video that can be viewed below.
