That's odd. I killed walter in the water treatment plant as well, with a shotgun. It was at night, and no one else was in there, and after i looted him and left, no one seemed to know. But when i hacked the computer in craterside supply, the Merc she hired decided to try to kill me, and when i...

And Condemned: Criminal Origins did some things in terms of atmosphere and puzzles that we'd never seen before, and then Condemned 2 kept it going, without any huge innovations, but was a great game nonethleess.

Goldeneye pretty much invented the headshot. I believe it was the first to make headshots result differently than any other shot, and afterword, it became expected of FPSs. It also pretty much invented decent FPS multiplayer on a console. Half-Life 2 really took physics out of the realm of...

Nothing beats the Tetris Theme. But Tatakau Mono Tachi, as used in FFVII: AC (the piano version) comes really close. And so does the wind waker theme, especially this verion: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRv8gnBMiWM

I've had mine since christmas '07, and the only time i've gotten any rings is when my brother kicked it over (playing guitar hero) and it gave a ring pattern that translates as a hard disk read error. I let it calm down and turned it on 10 minutes later, and it was fine.

Didactic. I have trouble restraining myself from stepping up and instructing people who are supposed to be either my colleagues or superiors, particularly in English classes and in music. (I'm a musician primarily, and this happens a lot in rehearsals, when I'll make comments to other people...

This isn't a kill, but one of the best moments in my gaming career was in TF2 at ctf_well, when, on a full server, as a heavy, i simply walked into their base, ripping up the few sentries and enemies i found, took the intel, and simply walked back to my base, right past 2 ubercharged enemy...

This is one of those moments that give me a little bit more faith in humanity, which is particularly rare coming from a Utah legislator.

I have black, brown, and rainbow plaid driver's caps that i wear depending on the outfit. The first two make me look like I'm right out of The Depression, and the last makes me look like a flamboyantly gay golf caddie.

I'm the kind of person who gets bored with games easily, and i give up on nearly all of them without finishing or getting very far. I have quite a few games i've uninstalled, and i have plenty of room to keep them, without 20 hours of gameplay (Viva Pinata, Guild Wars, Universe At War, The...

I play bass and i have for 6 years. I prefer to play upright, though I'm fluent with both. I have a 70's Czech bass upright, an '84 Fender American J Bass with an '82 Original Fender Bassman 2x12 combo. I play in my school's chamber orchestra and a local youth orchestra. I play in a...

Hype is the best friend of games and the worst enemy of gamers. The main goal of a game, for the developer, is to make money. Hype means more games sold. Look at games like Halo, Heavenly Sword, and about any game made by EA, which get hyped to the moon, and in the case of the halos, sell...

I always play non-inverted for first-person games, regardless of the control situation (be it xbox, pc, whatever), but i always play inverted for flying games, be it a joystick, a keyboard, a gamepad, or however i have to play. But with a wiimote it's completely different, becuase the...

You're forgetting all the good ones. A few years ago my dad bought me a game, but he bought a soccer ball, cut a hole in it, placed the game in that, and wrapped it. And for my brother last year he put a DS cartridge in one of those mini-cereal boxes (we got them in stockings every year) and...
