    Zero Punctuation: Zelda Phantom Hourglass

    Nice quote but do you have it in Latin? When adding quotes to the end of my posts to be pretentious, I prefer them to be Latin if they're not by Nietzche. "Admiration for a quality or an art can be so strong that it deters us from striving to possess it." - Friedrich Nietzsche

    73: Turning the Tables

    This is a really interesting article. It was cool to see the price of the 360/ps3 and how much money sony has. Wouldn't the money sony made last year be from the ps2 and not really the psp or did it do better than I though? What I also found interesting was: "The dearth of first-party...

    Gears of War: I'm Not Buying It

    I'll try to keep my discussion of games that haven't been released out of the threads that are about discussing a game that hasn't been released.

    Gears of War: I'm Not Buying It

    Vegas is a third-person shooter with military characters peaking out from behind cover to take down enemies while working as a squad. Gears is a third-person shooter with military characters peaking out from behind cover to take down enemies while working as a squad. Maybe you're right though...

    Gears of War: I'm Not Buying It

    I'm also waiting for a 360 price drop. I'm buying a Wii and PS2 next month so I'll have more games than I can handle with Okami, Zelda, Shadow of the Colossus, and maybe a Ratchet and Clank game. Gears looks like it has the same gameplay as Rainbow 6: Vegas but with much, much more hype. It...

    Florida Court Orders Bully Preview

    It turned out as I expected pretty much except I didn't expect Jack Thompson to respond THAT crazily to the judge. Gamespot has really good excerpts from the letter and you can get the full letter from games politics.

    Florida Court Orders Bully Preview

    I've actually been excited about this when I've never been excited about these court shenanigans before. If he was requesting to play San Andreas I'd be more concerned, but Bully I don't think will seem that ridiculous to the judge. The only thing of concern is that if the judge finds that he...

    Nintendo DS - Game Recommendations

    From what I've played on Meteos it seemed too spammy. It seemed like I could just scribble with the stylus and it would send things flying. Maybe there's more to it though. I came into it having already played and loved Lumines so I had some high expectations going in.

    Nintendo DS - Game Recommendations

    Kirby Canvas Curse just had a price drop to $20 so you have no excuse not picking it up. Phoenix Wright, Metroid Prime Hunters, and Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time are the other games I really like. I'm not a fan of Mario Kart but the DS version is supposed to be the best. Those are pretty...

    DEFCON, or how I Learned to Stop Worrying and ...

    I apologize to my continents population in advance as in large games it isn't my goal to win so much as it is to get one sub fleet outside of every major port city in the game. I do this late in the game when I think by that point the city I attack doesn't have enough defenses left to shoot...

    Microsoft Clarifies Lack of Too Human At X06

    This certainly gives strength to the rumors that the game was having its graphics engine redone. Time better spent on development? More likely that it's being completely reworked.

    62: "I'm Evil"

    On top of the fact that it's deceitful, the difference is the fan is doing it because he wants the company and the game to do well because he enjoyed it and he wants others to enjoy it like he did while the guerilla marketer is tricking people into thinking he's doing it for the more noble...

    Telltale Games CEO Dan Connors Discusses Sam & Max for the Wii

    I'm hoping these games will be fun. I also hope that people aren't expecting this to live up to the first Sam and Max game, that's nearly impossible. If I hear decent enough things about episode 1 I'll buy it and try it out. If I like it they pretty much have me for the duration of the...

    Excite Truck apparently for 1-2 players: Dreams crushed, Doubts raised.

    Is it wrong that I'm looking forward to this game and I'll be buying it at launch? Speaking of launch, how is Wario Ware not able to make it in time for launch? I never assumed Wario Ware games took too long to make. I don't know why it doesn't have 4 players though. That's weird now that...

    WCG 2006: Counter-Strike Elimination Update

    There's no way 3D can lose to u5. 3D vs col would be a better final, and I'm not proud that I know this.
