Like many people, I think Susan Arendt blows 90% of the commentary on this game right out of the water. What she says is not a reactionary evaluation, or an inflamed knee-jerk reaction. I like that a lot. Reading what she said helped me iron out my thinking on the Tomb Raider reboot. While we...

Yes, it is a coincidence. I am not a part of "The Machine" lol. I didn't think anyone would notice that I'm a female, actually. My writing is pretty gender neutral. --Tiffany Martin

Apparently not... ): I found some interesting tidbits while researching this article. Despite my years of otaku-tude even I learned something!

Is this a product of aim issues or it this because of RPG specs for that weapon being too low? I haven't played Alpha Protocol yet, and I'm so sad that it's a buggy mess. I was excited to play it also. I WANTED IT TO BE GOOD! ): Of course, maybe the PC version is salvageable with a patch...

I'm 28, and a female. I got mistaken on forums for male (even after I changed my regular handle from "Gothbubbles" to "Cake-pie") more often than I get thought of as a kid. In real life young 20-somethings think I'm their age. I'm like "Guys, I'm too old to date you" and they're all "You...

Sexism, friend. Rubs both ways ): I was okay with this article, but the headline was not helpful to the content. I expected to read something more about how devs attempt to attract women. It was a good piece about Jennifer Canada--and a good read. I enjoy learning more about people in games...

I hated the ending to Still Life. It was a fantastic adventure game, it kept me up til 5 am playing it many times. The ending screams "Haha, we're gonna tell you in the sequel". PS: The sequel sucks.

I never came almost close to beating nethack. In fact, the only roguelikes I have ever beaten are the "new" roguelikes: dark cloud, diablo etc, and I'm not sure these really count (8000% easier to beat). Powder is really a great game, but I pissed all my friends off by introducing them--for...

Powder's really good. Also it's on all pc platforms. I even dled it for my homebrew wii. I didn't realize there was a roguelike on XBLA. I think you have single-handedly given microsoft my money lol. Dungeon Adventure sounds familiar, do you know if it's a port?

Still better than me. Have you played Powder?

There's Nethack, Rogue, Baroque and even modern takes on the roguelike: Diablo, Dark Cloud, and Torchlight. Have you played any of these? Loved them? Never heard the term "Roguelike"? Roguelikes are RPG games with random loot and random dungeons, older RLs were turn-based (movement and...

Gitaroo Man!! One of the best beat games no one ever played. (ps2) Azure Dreams~~ it was an RPG, I might even call it a roguelike. It had collectible monsters, randomly generated levels, town building, house decorating, and dating. It was so fun to play, and no one ever played it. Grim...

Yus, I felt the same way, this was of course before I got the brain worms. Now that I've got holes in the brain pan, I'm in love with Jim Butcher's Harry Dresden books (and I'm a little embarrassed to admit this). I'm a whore for all that is Harry Dresden. They're super cheesy, but there's...

I helped a friend get a copy of amplitude for 5.99 I would have just bought it for myself, but I already have it. I get gaming deals every time the stop has their buy two get one free thing, now I own all the persona games released in the US. People will probably be more impressed with...

I second Borderlands. I kept saying to my screen as NPC's were talking "Yeah, yeah. Shut up, shut up, shut up." Unskippable yet replayable cutscenes. NOOOOOOO! Fun game though! Especially multiplayer.
