I'm still trying to figure out why people compare Prototype and Infamous at all. Now that both are out, they're quite obviously very different games whose only connecting points are "you have powers", "free roaming", and "came out around the same time". Prototype is more speeding around and...

That's not quite the compliment you think it is.

Seriously? Comparing Red Faction and Prototype? I mean, I could almost understand the comparisons with inFamous, but Red Faction? I refuse to believe that this topic is at all a serious one.

I do hope they've stopped calling it a survival horror game. Because it most certainly isn't. Survival Action Shooter game, perhaps.

Arthur Cohen from Bioshock. Bunny ears.

The end of Half-Life 2: Episode 2 and the part of Bioshock with the little sisters (I had been harvesting them the whole time) both got me to cry.

Gordon Freeman. Barring that... "Argyle, you magnificent bastard!"

Of course, multiplayer would be a huge aspect of the game, for those who want it to be. We already have enough hero-related MMOs, but the ability to "host" a world for up to 50 or so individuals would be a feature. Once the world has been created the players can go back to it whenever they...

Nope, it's got a padded seat!

None. I like enjoying myself with a clear head, thanks.

A fully customizable superhero/villain game, part RPG and part over the top action. An entire world to explore, filled with thousands of completely different stories depending on your place of birth and how your powers manifest themselves. Cities and towns are as structurally accurate as...

Dead Space. Leviathan fight. Yahtzee's "Shoggoth in a tumble dryer" comment described it perfectly.

Heh, I must admit that I did the same thing. I made it a bit farther along, to the point where there were actual enemies to watch out for. Didn't last much longer after that, especially once I started reading about the various former inmates and why they were incarcerated. I still kick myself...

It mainly refers to the real-world creation of lifelike, humanoid machines. It suggest that the more "human" a machine looks, the more its inhuman traits will be noticeable. As a result, the machine becomes borderline disturbing. That's just a terribly brief summary of it, off the top of my...

This. This right here is what all games should aspire to when trying to incite true, unadulterated fear in a player. I find that the best "horror" games are those that are not labeled as such. Case in point, Thief. It's not a survival horror game, it's a stealth game. You don't go into it...
