Actually, yes, and I was waiting for someone to post something so I could talk about it. I was hoping it was going to be Sly because then I could say like "Well, I guess in that case you're just a Chicken!
Monday Night Combat:Speaking of Chicken!"
And then I'd get into what I thought about the new content update. But I can work with this too.
The update contains two major additions, plus a few odds and ends:
-The first is Uncle Tully's Funland. It has a distinct Amusement Park theme to it, with buildings designed to look like castles and whatnot. It's also very constricted, so you'll be getting into a lot of close-quarters combat. one of it's major gimmicks is that there's buttons for you to spawn nearly every type of bot. Spawn buttons for Jackbot, Black Jacks and Slimbots are right outside the spawn, while buttons for Gremlins, Gapshots, Scarmblers and Bouncers are off to the side. (And no longer class-specific) Another fun addition is that the center of the arena, containing the Annihilator and Juice Dispensers is a big bounce pit. It's really tricky getting to them, but not in a bad way. It also contains...
-Chickey Cantor! It's a gigantic chicken that will spawn in one of two circular arenas off to the sides of Uncle Tully's Funland. He's signaled with his own personal theme ("Chikeeeeeeeey...Chickey Cantoooooooooor") And a unique line from Mickey Cantor. Killing Chickey (No easy task!) nets your entire team a huge buff to all their stats until they die. The quickest way to kill him is, like with everything else, a grapple move. The only way to grapple him is after he performs an area-of-effect ground-pound...which will more than likely kill you. He also has a peck attack. The trick is to let some poor schmuck go into the area, then watch from a safe distance until Chickey does his ground-pound, then hurry in and grapple him. This will take out half his health, and net you a tidy sum of cash.
tl;dr version: New Arena is cool, Chickey Cantor is cool, Assassin giggling as she bounces in the bounce pit or rides around on Chickey Cantor is suspiciously adorable.
This was the hardest game since Resistance 2 that I've ever played. Hopefully DA 2 isn't as frustrating. Either way, it was an awesome game! The song playing in the credits just makes me want to play the game over again, then get DA 2! 
...but... 
it was for a just cause.
I thought I would have to restart the entire game!
