    Stupid in game morality.

    Having a "morality stat" is a pretty weird idea to begin with, since there are many different systems of moral philosophy, which are predicated on many different views about the way the world works, that are frequently mutually exclusive. The alignment system in Neverwinter Nights (and really...

    Something for the Ladies

    I understand that some games tell a story, and if that story has a romantic subtext, then the gender and sexual identities of the parties involved are necessarily decided ahead of time. I don't resent playing a male character who will end up with a female character or a female character who...

    Kingdom hearts 3....will it happen?

    I hope KH3 does happen, and if it does, I hope it bears more resemblance to KH1 than KH2. I liked the original plot line in KH1, where I felt that KH2 relied much too heavily on the plots of the Disney movies it borrowed characters from and decided to present stories that players would already...

    Scariest Game Level Ever?

    The lab in Resident Evil 4 for its creepy industrial atmosphere, a tough new brand of enemy (there's something sinister about the way they move and that sound they make), and a lot of narrow hallways and small rooms (the less room I have to maneuver, the more nervous I get.)
