    Poll: Why isn't Australia in any shooters?

    An American developer made a game with American's as the protagonist, huh. Who'd of thought... crazy, man. Just crazy.

    So NOW it's cool?

    I've personally seen Halo and MW/2 as both main stream and or enjoyed by those outside of the typical gamer culture, Combat Evolved and the entire series included. Opinions always vary, of course, but where I stand and what I see, I don't understand the CoD is " cooler " then halo mindset shared...

    Making CoD protagonists interesting.

    Mason does have frequent lines throughout the game. Not of shakespearean length / scope but he does speak. However, it may be difficult to hear him over the pew pews and 'splosions.

    "S**t just got real" moments

    Sure I have more but due to the excess amounts of alcohol I've consumed like they're health potions in an old school romp through Diablo 2, only a few I can really think of... clearly anyways. First one that popped up would be the whole Aeris thing, you know, when the two characters with the...

    No New Elder Scrolls!

    This sucks. But there's much more worse things out there beside the threat of no new Elder Scrolls. Like Jimmy Fallon's attempt as a talk show host. The horror... And yes, I am genuinely bummed out about this. Not that Oblivion was bad at all but somewhat of a disappointment if they end...

    Favourite SNES game ever?

    Gotta throw down for Actraiser as well. Though really, Zombies Ate My Neighbors om nom'd a lot of my SNES time back in the day.

    Games That Would Make for a Great Musical

    Dead Rising. I can just imagine a Thriller-esque dance routine. That or Resident Evil. If you thought the dialogue was terrible, just think of the lyrics to THAT musical.

    why are there no WW1 games?

    I really doubt the lack of World War 1 games is due to America's late entry in the conflict. That's a pretty absurd idea. That and it's made worse by continuously being repeated over and over in posts, as if it's some grand, genius like observation. It isn't. At first, it may have been amusing...

    Something you don't see anymore....

    That Wall-E cake is the most amazing thing I've seen. Kind of. I want one. D: But yes, nostalgia has a funny way of distorting our view on things. However, I won't argue that those cartoons such as Aladin and Pinocchio aren't timeless classics... Lion King was my personal favorite growing up.

    Poll: Favorite JRPG

    I was going to say Final Fantasy VII since I don't play too many JRPGs then I saw you all naming Tales of Symphonia and I was reminded of Tales of Phantasia. That game was great, specially for its time so, think I'll have to name Tales of Phantasia as mine.

    What games should be books

    This. It'd be neat to see a novelization of Opposing Force. Either through Sheppard's eyes, or the marines set before him.

    What would you like to see in left 4 dead?

    I'd like to see the SDK released. It's supposed to be out sometime after the DLC, so, here's hoping that it'll come next week and not next month. Or worse. Really, with the SDK out, most of the ideas in this thread can be made reality in due time, specially those wishing for new campaigns...

    Games you want to see get a sequel?

    I just finished Jade Empire a few days ago. Pretty good game, don't understand why I ignored it when it first came out. A sequel, perhaps even thrown in a Japanese-set atmosphere would be cool, as long as it kept the core gameplay style. Hell, I wouldn't mind another romp in little China town...
