I play all the Zelda's every so often. Aside from that I've been playing a lot of old stuff on Virtual console. Graphics don't bother me.

yesyesyes. When I saw Valve were exhibiting at GDC, I was wondering what they would show off, considering they had nothing significant scheduled to come out. Now it seems they have something to show, even if I have no idea what it is.

Metal Gear Solid 4. I don't own a PS3, so a friend offered to let me come round and play through it. Jesus that was long.

No. They're Action/ Adventure games. I guess now that RPG elements have seeped into every other genre imaginable it's becoming hard to tell, but no, Zelda is not an RPG.

Bayonetta. I paid full price for it, and have since then vowed to rent everything before I buy it.

Dont buy it then, whatever form it takes. Oh but wait, we all know nerds.

I don't see why I should have to 'pace' myself. It's still rubbish.

I'm struggling to understand your position as well. I played through almost the entire game before started mining for minerals. Even then I had to do it for a good while before I could afford most of the upgrades.

It's not tiny, it's the foundation of the entire upgrades system, and it's boring as fuck. On my first play through I thought I was doing something wrong; the rest of the game is so well designed, yet there's this mini-game that's fundemental to the experience that takes ages, and isn't in...

Bayonetta. Unlike the OP I did eventually sell it off. there is only so much shit I can take.

If a game has a story then it's open to be criticised for it. If a designer somewhere has sat down and said 'our game absolutely needs a story to function' then it's important enough for people to criticize or celebrate. That's my opinion anyway.

Ocarina of Time is probably the best I can remember. That or Half-Life 2. I love the super gravity gun.

Or rather what you hyped it up to be? I weep daily over Timesplitters 3 and all the online multiplayer I am not playing on it.

Re-Deads creeped me out the first time I played Ocarina of Time, but they don't really scare me now. I am endlessly freaked out by the floating baby slug things from Half-Life though.

It wouldn't be a hybrid or anything, it'd just be Bioshock 2 with 'Can't Touch This' by MC Hammer playing all the time. Throughout the whole game. They would have to actually release it in the UK first (before 2015 preferably).
