    If I Were the Opposite Sex, I Would Fancy the Hell Out of You!

    Amazing movie, shame about the ending. One of (if not the only) role he's done in recent memory where he is memorable as a character, not just 'Tom Cruise'. Collateral is excellence on almost every level of film making. The 'Yo homie, that my briefcase?' scene alone makes it worth watching...

    Competitive Multiplayer Choices That you don't Respect

    Yeah, this was my first thought too. It drove me out of competitive Magic: The Gathering and more recently Duel Of Champions. I just kept running into people playing decks where the whole strategy was to stop me from doing anything while they set up their win. I don't mind losing but I want...

    Most disappointed sequel?

    Saints Row The Third. With the exception of graphics it was inferior to Saint Row 2 in every way. Significantly less content across the board, a huge drop off in quality in the writing, a horrid misstep in the shift in tone, the deeply disappointing way established characters were treated...

    Host Haste

    So, uh, is the take away here 'Stop being so mean to Stephanie Meyer'? Yes, personal attacks are out of line. Yes, the line of thought that she's 'just a housewife' and therefore too stupid to see what she's doing is objectionable, but I think she'll be fine, she can't hear us yelling at her...

    I Can't Stop Playing Plague, Inc.

    I grabbed this game after seeing you tweet about it a few times and I'm really enjoying it. It and Triple Town are the only games I've grabbed for my phone and not been bored with within a day. The only bad thing I have to say about it is the how quickly it drains my phone battery. So, thank...

    Poll: Series that deliver consistently good titles

    Winter Assault is great, Soulstorm ... not so much. I didn't hate it as much as everyone else seems to but I'm pretty forgiving when it comes to anything 40K related and had no interest in playing it online. *Edit* Ninja'd by like five minutes. Heh. I agree with the mention of...

    Misused words

    I think that you'll find that the majority of cases you're so infuriated by are simply using 'entitled' as a shorthand for 'falsely entitled' regardless of if they know it or not. What they mean is that the people they are referring to feel like they are owed something when they are actually...

    Aliens: Colonial Marines first impressions review

    I've played a few hours of multiplayer now and it's better than single player but still not 'good'. It has a couple of good ideas but they are dragged down by everything around them. Here, this covers my feelings on the game pretty well...

    Aliens: Colonial Marines first impressions review

    What I've been telling people is pretty much what I posted. 'I'm not enjoying it and here's why. I don't recommend buying it but I haven't been able to play multiplayer yet.' I do plan on giving that a shot once more people are playing but I'm not expecting the addition of human opponents...

    Aliens: Colonial Marines first impressions review

    I'm afraid I have to disagree. I'm a huge 'Aliens' fan, if that matters. I will be steering everyone I know away from this game and regret the money I wasted on it myself. I've only played the single player as I couldn't even get into a multiplayer game but I am thoroughly disappointed...

    Warhammer Company Makes "Space Marine" Trademark Claim

    I love Warhammer 40K so much it's probably a little unhealthy, but I do not like Games Workshop at all. They're awful and this comes as no surprise. Copyright law is also awful and in dire need of a serious shake up. I really hope this sort of crap is stopped soon but I just don't see it...

    Poll: Dishonored or Xcom

    I was really disappointed by Dishonored. I haven't finished it yet because I keep getting bored with it and going to play something else. The problem may be that I'm going for a no kill run and there's only two ways to disable people without killing them and they get old fast. It desperately...

    if you could re-do any bad movie adaptation or game adaptation, which would you choose?

    Max. Payne. It took a near admirable amount of terrible choices to screw up turning Max Payne into a movie. I will keep my long rant about it to myself and just say everything about the movie we got was painfully terrible when it could have been so good.

    Game endings that just ruined almost the entire game for you.

    Agreed. The ending to Arkham City was amazing. It was so bleak. I loved The Batman carrying the Joker out of Arkham City in the classic 'dead loved one' carry, too distraught from failure and loss to acknowledge anything around him. It was one of my favourite moments in gaming for 2011. Much...

    Developer Laziness: Saint's Row the Third

    Saints Row 3 may be the biggest gaming disappointment I have ever had. SR2 is one of my favourite games of all time. The game play was fun, the writing was good, the characters were fun and engaging and the level of customization was nearly unmatched. Just messing around in the sandbox was a...
