December was a great month for me. My 2nd 360 spilled it's red-ring guts up all over my desk and this was great for 2 reasons: 1. It prompted me to buy a PS3 (guess which one I prefer). 2. It meant that I didn't have to be hassled anymore by sales staff asking me if I wanted to buy Kinect...

I suppose you could say that Mass Effect 2 is the modern culmination of RPG, action and adventure genres. Of course it's not a 'proper' RPG - as posters have mentioned, it's a little stripped down in that regard. But what it is, for me anyway, is a well executed blockbuster that covers a lot of...

Anyone who considers the following in their all time top 10 game list: 1. Any Mario Game (not including Mario Kart) 2. Any Halo game 3. Any online farming game (or casual game in general) OR Anyone who's had at least 3 XBox 360s succumb to the dreaded 3 red rings of the apocalypse and...

Yeah, I'm not big on FPS's usually. I tend to go for 3PS's if pushed. I dug out MW2 the other day though (I thought it was rubbish the 1st time I played it) and found the local co-op mode to be bags more fun than 'zombies'. (I also don't play online, so I guess I miss out on plenty of the FPS...

Oh, I got it. I'm not so familiar with modern slang... Anyway, yes, you were right :)

I guess we enjoy different things then... The whole post is a little tongue-in-cheek but, yes, 'Star Whores.' (Since I don't know what 'trolling' is, I guess I'm in the clear :) )

Sounds like a lot of us'd like to see it happen! How about it Activision? Think of the money you'd make, you capitalist dogs ;)

I've just been playing the thoroughly adequate Call Of Duty: Black Ops and something came to mind (and was reinforced by Yahtzee's comments). Would anyone else really like to play an FPS/3rd person shooter AGAINST America? Don't get me wrong, this is not a hate post against the Yank nation...

Fifa 11. It's just so mechanical that it's boring. This year's PES is a big improvement. World Of Warcraft. Online gaming just bores me. It's too simplified and repetitive compared to a good offline game. Halo. Could there be a more generic game? Honestly, it has so few original ideas...

Mass Effect 2! As a shooter, it was FAR superior to Mass Effect 1 though the planetary scanning was way less fun than driving around on planetary surfaces and the scope and flexibility of stat progression was inferior. On balance, I have to say I preferred no.2 though - no.1 was way too ropey in...

1. Mario - passed his expiry date long ago. 2. Sam Fisher (Splinter Cell) - dull, dull, dull... 3. Spiderman - not hard enough to be a superhero. Turns all gooey all too often for M.J. 4. Eddy (Tekken) - because he's so hard to beat. 5. All of the other drivers in Dirt 2 - they kiss...

I'm a fan of metal if that constitutes liking Pantera, Morbid Angel, Slayer, Deicide... However, I wouldn't refer to myself as a metalhead any more. The metal I've heard over the last 10 years just hasn't cut it (but for occasional ecxeptions). So I suppose I'm out of touch with the modern metal...

I don't respect national borders, let along national flags. Like Bill Hicks once said, it only signifies where your parents fucked. Segregating people by nationality creates rivalry which in turn can create conflict. "War for territory" - props to those who recognize the song lyric ;)

Let me just say to begin that, wearing a gaming related t-shirt, is, well, just...awesome! Sadly, I don't have any gaming 'clothes' per-se that fit me any more. However, I do have a limited edition (from launch night) Gran Turismo 4 keyring that I've been using for the last 7 or so years. GT4...

You said it right! As a side note, how old are 'older gamers' considered to be? I'm 29 and started in 1987. Where does that put me on the gaming veteran scale?
