    "I don't like Halo: Reach's maps" with a twist

    Good post. Well thought out and intelligently presented. This was definatley a change in tone, focusing more on the story elements related to the campaign. not entirely sure it worked, but then we have to consider that there may also be a bit of nostalgia when considering old maps verses new...

    How could Pokemon win you back (Assuming it lost you?)

    This one is way out there and will probably never happen, but I've always thought the pokemon setting would make a great mmorpg. Probably via pc, it would combine all the regions with various pokemon wandering around (random encounters to gain xp) each player would use a team, with nearly...

    Red Dead Revival?

    Agreed. These are both great, and BCASK is one of my top ten movies period. Its essentially a buddy picture, with some of the best chemistry between two actors I've ever seen. Not to mention that nearly every line is quotable in its own right. BTW, if anyone hasnt seen it, don't read an...

    Worst Geek Movies Ever Made

    Having just read Moviebob's Geek Movie List, I'd like to discuss its polar opposite. What, in your opinion, are the worst Geek Films ever made? Lets try to avoid name calling and keep this as intellectual as possible. First ones to pop into my head are the Superman Films. I recognize the...

    McDonald's Attacked For "Horrifying" Marvel Happy Meals

    I guess the irony is that most of these "pg 13" movies are based on comic books and cartoons written for kids. I mean, its not like they're watchmen toys or based on Sin City. Every one of those characters were on Saturday morning cartoons that I grew up with. Maybe this is a joke? I cant...

    The Movie Nerd Bible: Part II

    I get the feeling this is a pre nineties list. I believe the assumption is that since we're having this discussion on a video game culture site's forum, we've all probably seen lord of the rings, Spiderman, The Dark Knight ect... otherwise he'd probably have added District 9, which his review...

    a brief review of the last airbender: initial thoughts

    On the one hand, I'm impressed by the film's commitment to the source material. It pulls from multiple episodes and does allot of it justice. Unfortunately, it does this at the expense of its character development and actual dialogue. And the fact is, while the martial arts, awesome animation...

    Poll: D&D 4th edition: good or bad

    I realize that allot of people had issues when 4e came out. It simplified much of the game which felt particularly strange considering the extreme complexity 3.5 was famous/infamous for. to allot of people, it felt like their favorite rpg was being dumbed down to its lowest common denominator...

    Not sure I get all the Nintendo Bashing that goes on around here.

    the reason dreamcast failed was that sega burned its target audience by releasing multiple peripherals and additions to their previous consoles that didnt work with each other, had very view actual games, and cost allot of money. by the time they created the dreamcast, people were too fed up to...

    Not sure I get all the Nintendo Bashing that goes on around here.

    agreed. that a pretty general statement to make with only two examples which may or may not even be real.

    Not sure I get all the Nintendo Bashing that goes on around here.

    Nintendo deserves respect if for no other reason than we probably wouldn't be playing video games now if the original nes hadn't brought us out of the eighties arcade crash. As far as America was concerned, gaming had been a passing fad and they might well have been right if it wasn't for a...
