Yeah, I have to agree with some of the above responses. In a "time of crisis" I'm not sure if shutting down a global communication network is a wise course of action. Oh, what's that? It's in case the internet is attacked by cyber-terrorists? ... Sounds like a good idea for a movie.

That looks like a piece of plastic with two stickers on it.

That's true, but Jango is supposedly one of the best, if not the best. Well, until the Battle of Geonosis when he goes head to head with a Jedi Master, which is a fitting choice of words given what happens. If Mandalorian Armour is available in the game I'd bet on seeing about 10,000...

That wasn't Princess Peach in Donkey Kong. That was Mario's girlfriend-at-the-time Pauline. Technically Mario's been saving the Princess since Super Mario Bros.

I have to say, I'm a big fan of Yahtzee and Zero Punctuation, but I'm perfectly comfortable with the once a week schedule. Heck, if he tried to do more than that, every video would be a "first impressions" anyway. Besides, I'm more than happy to go back and watch old reviews to pass the time...

I for one am open to the possibility that Twilight may be good. It's just doesn't appeal to me. (Or anybody else who isn't a teenage girl, but whatever). Anyway, Twilight is indeed high up on the list of things people need to shut the fuck up about.

Do the movies where Jason Voorhees is undead count as zombie movies at all? Because if so, Friday the 13th: Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan was pretty fucking terrible.

I think I hate it when I have to do anything in an FPS besides kill everything and get to the end of the level/ Granted I haven't played Portal, but I couldn't get too far in Metroid Prime because there were platforming parts in it which I ultimately decided was bullshit for a first person...

It's far more ironic when people misuse the word "ignorant". I don't know about the rest of you, but I've heard people use the word "ignorant" as if it meant "rude" way too many times in my life.

For me it's actually in what I consider one of the best games of all time. In the first dungeon of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, when you're going along and Navi stops and slowly explains how to open a fucking door. It's good that the controls are explained but this was unskippable...

A lot of people have mentioned the Elites from Halo but what about those retarded midgity whatchamacallits from the same game. Okay, not exactly "cool" but amusing enough to warrant a mention. Of course, since we're talking about races in video games and not just races from video games...

As cliche as it probably is, mine has to be Super Mario Bros for the NES. That's the first game I ever played, and it's what really got me into playing games in the first place.

I've noticed the name Doom come up a couple times already in this thread and I have to disagree with it's mention. It's true it's not a good movie, and it's not even a good Doom movie. But the fact of the matter it's not the worst video game based movie to be made. There are certainly things...

"Retailers and movie theaters which advertise that they don't sell M-rated games or R-rated movie tickets to underage buyers and then do so would be liable for fines of $2,000 per incident." Okay, does anybody really have a problem with this. I'm no fan of Jack Thompson's incessant bitching...

I actually really liked the N64 controller. It was comfortable to hold, assuming you held it right and the game you were playing didn't do anything moronic like map controls to both the control pad and stick. I do admit that the control stick itself sucked a big bag of dick, though.
