Call Of Duty 4. The controls are far better. The story better. The online better. Level design is far superior. Half Life 2. Once again, everything is better. Hell! I like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. more! Better story and more fun to play. System Shock. Unreal. Quake. I could go on and on...

Halo is the Linkin Park of video games. They took good parts from other games, watered them down to make them palpable to more people, then fed them to the public. I've worked in the gaming industry for quite a while. Halo is nothing compared to it's hype.

I love the harpoon gun from Crackdown. Give them a good kick and shoot. You can peg them anywhere! And then you can shoot the body in a different place so the body ragdolls differently all the way down a wall. Nifty. And who can forget the Hadoken? That's a fraking fireball doom weapon!

People take everything in life far too seriously. Racism in a videogame? Sign me up. Now, if the game was something like "Adolf Kills Jews 6", then I would pass. That's exploitive and the only reason someone is making it is to further their own crappy goals. Something like GTA or RE5 is fine in...

I am a drummer, and I played the drums for this at the GameStop managers conference. They were horrible. A lackey said if I was a drummer, to set them on hard or expert. The track played nothing at all like drums and had parts that made absolutely no sense. I admit, I have not played it since...

Oh crap? What's gonna happen to the ST:MMO?

I have a Zune, and I used to rock iPod. I LOVE my Zune! Love it to death! I honestly feel that it is way better than anything Apple has offered. The flaw used to be the desktop software, which they just updated and it's wonderful.

Sexual orientation has absolutely no relevance to how good a game is. Unless you are a retarded rednecked bigot.

PS, I actually purchased my 360 for this game.

Wow, it's a fantastic game. I will point out a few of the negatives, because the list is short. 1 Pop-in graphics That's right, it happens in almost any Bioware game. You will be in a great conversation, and out of nowhere the armor someone is wearing will accrue highlights, designs, and...

State of Emergency... UG!

As a manager at GameStop, I worked 12 hours of insanity on Black Friday. I had to wake up at 3am. Never again, man. I gotta get out of this racket.

What's the point? That he got a bad disk and could easily get a different one? That he had had the console for a while and normal wear-and-tear happens so something like this is inevitable? If you purchased a car and drove the shit out of it for two years without servicing it or doing...

And that has what to do with the overall issue? Nothing.
