    Zero Punctuation: Metal Gear Solid 4

    They should just make a game that's all the boss fights from each game linked together.

    Zero Punctuation: Silent Hill Homecoming

    Yeah, it was kinda subpar. At least they didn't do a total cop out on Pyramid Head though, plus I thought it was kinda cool to show that you weren't the only one in the game who did anything other than sit around waiting for you to show up before talking to you or getting their stupid ass...

    what are you afraid of

    Heights, responsibility, and extremists of all flavours, like Republicans, PETA, and people who say Jesus too much.

    Screen names and Avatars

    Well, I picked Bodb from The Bard's Tale, who was one of five (or four, my memory is hazy) advisors who helped The Bard on his quest. The Bodb's were identical except for the fact that they had different missing limbs. Bodb is the short form of The Fourth Bodb, for convenience's sake. My...

    When did "casual" gaming become such a horrible thing?

    There are two types of hardcore gamers: gamers who really, really care about games and are proud of it, and idiots who call themselves 'hardcore' because they believe that being decent at Halo (sorry, I'm sure there are plenty of nice Halo players) or Guitar Hero makes them special somehow...

    Are we getting meaner and nastier?

    Well, throughout history we've watched people get axed for our entertainment (gold star if you thought of Rome), but over time, that's become taboo and inhumane, so instead we've switched to voluntary social injury to people in the guise of reality tv. It's all about knowing that someone...

    Best Soundtrack in a game

    I would have to say... Wild Arms 2. The intro music is awesome. Zone Of The Enders 2nd Runner, because the mix of orchestra and classical music was very well done. The Metal Gear Solid theme is one of my favorite orchestral pieces ever, and I have several different versions of it on my iPod...

    Kicking a person based on the name

    Depends on how annoying the name is. If I ran a server, I would run the thing like the bastard that I am. Oh, and for the record, your name is kinda stupid, but it wouldn't constitute a kick because it might offend someone. In fact, I would probably use you to weed out the idiots with a mental...

    WWI Shooter?

    It would be kickass if you enjoy simulating contracting trenchfoot after three days of lying in a mud pit and taking the occasional pot shot across an expanse of mud to hit the mud barricade of a German machinegunner covered in mud. So, yeah, if I wanted to experience mud and diseases, I'd just...

    Alright, you got me convinced...

    There are lots of big games for PC, they're just from different genres then those you mentioned. Crysis, Sins Of A Solar Empire, and so on. Also, a lot of good games have been ported to consoles. Like Deus Ex, for instance. And what's wrong with the wealth of share and freeware? There are some...

    Scariest Game You Have Ever Played

    If you're in the right environment, the Silent Hill series is some of the scariest stuff you'll ever see. There aren't really any jump out moments. Just a hell of a lot of creepy and disturbing atmosphere. It gets to the point where you're swearing to yourself repeatedly as you're forced to do...

    If You Where In Control Of What Songs Went Into Guitar Hero

    Helloween, because Dragonforce is for bitches. Americana by Offspring, and 3's & 7's by QOTSA. Most definitely some NIN, like Mr. Self Destruct or something else from The Downward Spiral. Monster Hospital by Metric would be fun. Danger! High Voltage by Electric Six would kick untold amounts of...

    Monster Hunter, what happened to it?

    Killzone was a broken piece of shit. I won't bother to state why because I'm too cool.

    Monster Hunter, what happened to it?

    It was fun, but it got a lukewarm reception in the US and the server was closed last December, if I remember correctly. Kickass game, though. No one wanted to help me farm for Diablos stuff, though.
