    Games you wish you HADN'T bought...

    SSBB- I agree with Yahtzee on this one. Not as good as people made it out to be. Assassin's Creed- So overrated. Blue Dragon- I rented and could not finish. Debating about Lost Odyssey because I hated BD so much.

    How would you improve RPGs?

    After some thought, I want Ultima IV back.

    Why won't Apple have games developed for it?

    Apple makes little starts and just starts to get stuff together and then leaves its developers out to dry. They would need something on the level of DirectX and a full time development team, and while they have some of the components, they have never showed the slightest inclination to care. I...

    Mass Effect, an RPG or...SODOMY SIMULATOR?

    I say we should feed him more bullshit and mention pagan sacrifices and anti-Christian messages and all the rest to make it just even more ridiculous. I notice he is not calling out America's Army for violence. Strange how sex always gets people ruffled.

    If You Could Make Your Own Game...

    @Fraser- I think that is actually a great idea, although hard to make it feel open-ended without a lot of brainstorming. I can see setting up elaborate traps, etc. At the same time, I feel like some anime of my misspent youth had a similar plot. I would personally make games like Full...

    How would you improve RPGs?

    The main problem are the cliches: 1. You are an elite solider with no skills and apparently you get a pea shooter to save the universe. 2. You can slaughter hundreds in side missions to get a little bit of loot without being thrown in jail for life 3. Good equipment is stored all over...

    Halo 3 "Cannibalized" Other Xbox 360 Releases

    It doesn't surprise me. I personally loved Stranglehold and thought it a bit underrated, but Halo 3 is pretty much what every one of my friends was playing solid for months. COD4 is still a better multiplayer game, but there is no way it has the hype of Halo either. The other problem being...

    Game mechanics you hate

    1. Trigger reflex button mashing- whether it is God of War, or decrypting in Mass Effect, it is just retarded. That also goes for Bioshock's water pipes hacking, also retarded. Any simple mini-puzzle that just has nothing to do with anything you are actually doing. 2. Bosses that are tough...

    My Game of the Year

    The whole show reeked of the industry-whoring that led to the Kane & Lynch fiasco being so believable, regardless of what really happened. The games were basically a hype-list with a lot of marketing dollars, the only miracle being that K&L didn't somehow manage to sweep the awards also...
