    things in games that make no sense

    In Fallout 3/Vegas, I can only carry so many packs of cigarettes. But an infinite amount of single cigs. Why can't I just get rid of the packs and carry all of them as single ones? Oh wells.

    Poll: video game alignment (nothing to do with karma meters)

    Neutral good. Wow, welcome to pansyville, population 3.

    Things that really ruin the gaming experience of Game X

    I absolutely see where you're coming from. I liked the first AC for a spell, but quickly lost interest when I realised that there was really only one mission in the whole game. In Swedish (which happens to be my mother tounge) 'assassination' translates to 'lönnmord', where 'mord' means 'murder'...

    Enemy Numbers

    Also, what Zannah said while I was writing my post. A lot of immersion gets lost when enemies who are supposed to be badass story-wise are pushovers when it comes to actual gameplay. Like Killer Croc in Batman: Arkham Asylum. He was all "I've got your scent!" And I was all "I've got an...

    Enemy Numbers

    I get the impression that most of us like to actually switch it up once in a while. Few games can do what Shadow otC does, making boss fight upon boss fight interesting (although to be fair, I guess there's a lot of platforming and not so much fighting, gameplay-wise), at least for me. On the...

    Weirdest way you've killed an enemy.

    Thief: Deadly shadows had AI that made for funny kills. I placed some slippery substance on a patrol route in the docks, and when the guard made his round he fell into the water. Basic. But the splash attracted another guard, who met with the same fate. And there must've been a spawn point...

    What will you feel about chainsawing a woman in Gears 3?

    Can the Locust really have been an all-male race up until now, anyway? Well, I guess if they're like bees, since they have a (BRITISH!?WTF!) queen. Anyway I look at it like this: if I coulda took my Lancer to that annoying queen character while she stood around expositioning in the second...

    Weirdest way you've killed an enemy.

    More epic than weird: in the very first Transformers game for PS2, the cartoony, good one. PLaying as Optimus, I slow-motion headbutted an enemy, sending it flying a fair bit into a wall and exploding. Weirdest one I can think of right now would be forcing civilian vehicles off bridges in GTA...

    Puase for thought: You there, you're a fnaboy/girl

    I fanboy the late Douglas Adams something horrible. I think he snared me with a combination of silly fun and by providing the illusion of understanding a lot of complex, weird scientific and philosophical theories and whatnot. I will, in any given situation defend anything he has breathed upon...

    Horror Movie Survival 101

    I think Hazardlife nailed it, actually.
