My suggestion is to instead do reviews of old games (like from 1980 to 2000) and keep those archived, to be used when you're on vacation. This video lacked the usual humour.

I'm the exact opposite. Only the most compelling games are finished by me (Oblivion), or games that are on the short side (Halo 3). I usually stop because I am limited with time and it's just not worth the effort to finish the game.

Haven't read the other responses but yes, you can trademark a color. IANAL but I believe no other shipping company can use UPS's brown, etc. The earliest example I remember reading about was that Altria/Phillip Morris had trademarked the distinctive light purple color of Milka bars.

Ahem, that was Quincy Jones. This was one of the funniest reviews in a while, although it was clear Mr. C liked it and was having trouble finding things seriously wrong with it. The reference to 'The Ring' at the end was great as well.

Look at Metacritic. A much, much higher % of bad games exist on the Wii vs. the PS3 or the 360.

I'd be happy with a 360 in a PS3's hardware, running on Xbox Live. My Wii is dead to me and I haven't played it in 6 months.

Per console, probably under 10. Maybe over ten counting all four platforms (PC + consoles). Now, if you're counting XBLA / PSN games and their ilk, then the answer is roughly about one a week.

No, the music hasn't grown on me. Please, please change it.

Really? Crappy warmed-over metal music? That's what you want as your intro songs?

As I wrote in my original email when the question first arose: "Yes, I would love a ZP t-shirt. And I will buy multiples, as long as it doesn?t say escapistmagazine.com on it somewhere. I?ll pay for an esoteric t-shirt. I won?t pay for an advertisement." There's two scenarios here: Either...
