I dunno, I think both sides, the reviewers and the publishers, are wrong in a sense. The easy one is the publisher. Bribes are generally not good. And attempting to strong arm someone is only going negatively affect your scores even if your game is good. Easy enough. The reviewers need to be...

See, I take Zero Punctuation as less of a review (though it makes good points from time to time) and more as entertaining satire. So, to me, this episode sort of fell flat in the humor department. I dunno, maybe it's the subject matter. Is it really all that funny that Mario never gets any from...

When and if DNF finally comes out there's no way it will live up to any hype. It'll either totally suck or simply be an average shooter. Of course there will be those few fanboys left that will swear by it but I predict it will garner solid 7's from the critics.

Oh! It loaded! My reaction? Meh.

It's time to kick ass and chew bubblegum! And I'm all outta gum... ShackNews is obviously crashing. Curses.

@lpneiman Think I just heard Yahtzee's zipper drop.

Advertising dollars have always swayed review scores. While not usually in a drastic way but an advertiser brining in big money can mean the difference between an 8.2 and an 8.5 kind of thing. This is the way the world works. And it doesn't just apply to video games, it goes for movies, books...

I wouldn't call a game in which the lead is a criminal, a hero, he's simply the protagonist. A hero is someone with a moral foundation. So that rules out 50 cent and DJ from San Andreas. 50 cent is an icon of a lifestyle that celebrates everything that is wrong with modern society so hardly a...

Yep, the books... MC is described as "tall with short hair, serious eyes, and strong features. His skin being too white from being in his armor all the time." As a kid, he's described as have brown hair and freckles. FIN.

@BlueMoon Torque from The Suffering isn't black. He's culturally ambiguous. If he's anything he looks hispanic to me. Anyway, Black heroes... Spawn immediately jumps out at me. More of an anti-hero but you gotta love him. He's more badass than other character ever conceived! And whoever...

Story, for the most part. If a game can make you sympathize with it's characters and care about what happens to them the I think the story is a success. But a good game is more than that. It's about combining a compelling story with an efficient way to interact with the world and it doesn't hurt...

Yahtzee has redeemed himself from the MoH:A debacle. Highly entertaining, thanks.

Dude, you own a Dell! I'm sorry. ;)

No luck, only loads the first 1:01 and then ceases loading. Curse you internets!

The video loaded 1/4 of the way then stopped. I refreshed and now it won't load at all. Sadness is becoming me.
