Something about this article that felt off to me was that you pointed out how Mario and Zelda almost never really change, while praising Symphony of the Night for being one of the few platformers that encourages exploration. But that's exactly what Super Mario 64 did, and it came out a year...

I first came here because of Zero Punctuation, but that doesn't mean I'd leave the site completely if it were gone. What that does mean for me is that I'm a lot less likely to get on this site Tuesdays and Wednesdays though. Tuesday would be for Extra Punctuation. The thing about Zero...

I did happen to notice one of the things you listed in a series everybody seems to love, Uncharted. I started playing Uncharted 2 after playing God of War collections and God of War 3 and found the game to be so much slower that it almost felt boring. I know it sounds irrational because the only...

It's too late to stop the war game craze now. I'm sick to death of the same old Call of Duty games too (In fact, I never liked them to begin with), but until an FPS comes along that further revolutionizes the genre, we're going to get COD games each year and millions of people are going to buy them.

Is there anyone more charismatic in the video game world than Kevin Butler right now? He makes me proud to own a PS3.

My main problems with this game aren't necessarily focussed on the game play itself (Despite how overused and stale it is), but the reason the game was made. See, from the look of it and several reviews I've read and videos I've watched, this game is basically Call of Duty for the Wii with the...

I think what I dislike more than being called a "gamer" is being labeled as "hardcore" or the "core audience". In the case of the former, it's like the other person thinks you have a problem just for playing games. In the case of the latter,it's painfully obvious that the companies call game...

Great article. You don't get ones like this on other sites, that's why I started frequenting this place. Being in the Game Design major myself, I kind of knew what I was getting into, but I think it's more than worth it because I can't see myself doing anything else.

I sold a lot of Gamecube games that convinced me to never trade in anything to Gamestop ever again. Out of those I regretted trading in Windwaker and 007 Agent Under Fire the most. I think I also traded in MVP Baseball 2005 as well and I do miss that game.

Timesplitters 3 was a really good FPS time travel based game. There weren't really many mechanics for the time travel, it's just that the game never took itself too seriously and as a result ended up being really fun. Lots of content in single player to unlock, tons of characters to play as in...
