I like how the SimCity disaster was kind of all EA's fault (I can't see Maxis wanting an always-on connection for any reason) and yet they all get let go. Yes, they had some misses, but LCR is right: an era is ending, and the new EA-Ubi era is beginning. We've gone from the Republic to Caesar...

You seriously only remember one character from Alien? I assume you mean Ripley... but you know Sigourney Weaver didn't even get top billing in that movie? I just watched it the other day. And also, nothing burst out of her chest. On the other hand, how many characters can you name from...

I think it may be approximately you and me, my good man. Haha. My main criticism of it was the jumping around in the storyline. A lot of it would've benefited from a more linear deal, especially with the whole CIA-kid again-CIA deal going on. As awkward as some parts of Heavy Rain were (the...

Side note: Dammit, Jim Sterling! Haha. Stealing my thunder.

(Side note: this is my inaugural thread here at the Escapist, please be gentle and constructive if there are any formatting errors or anything I should know about. Other than that, I welcome discussion and thanks for having me!) I was just watching through ZP and came upon Yahtzee's top 5...

Thank you for the luck, my good sir! I'm gonna need it. Actually, to be completely honest, the fact that people are having actual discussions over this heartens me greatly. I was going to be a college professor until I saw what academia was actually like (as another poster said, clique-y and...

This. Damon Lindelof's fan service to JJ and JJ's awful "mystery box" (a mystery wrapped in a box clearly labelled "mystery" wrapped in another box that clearly says "mystery" - the point is the boxes, not actually solving the mystery- see Lost) is what killed Prometheus. Lindelof has done...

My brother picked one up at launch annnnnd played through Ryse (which he said was boring and didn't look any better than current gen) annnnd now there's basically nothing. We already had a 360 and all the games on XB1 so far, until October that is, have been ports. He doesn't have cable, so...

Hi everybody. New guy here. I'm a bit late to this party, but I have a question RE: the Hitman footage, aside from Thunderf00t and Anita's overall points. Has anyone noticed that NOT allowing you to beat up/kill the strippers would basically break the game? And that allowing the player to...
