Yeah, I imagine StreetPassing is way better in Japan. I think I have around... 11 passes so far? More like 13 or something if I count repeats and I've had mine for months (and frequently visit game/electronics stores and the local mall).

To an extent. The problem is that, no matter what, there are always going to be those fans that whine. It's good if the developers listen to the level-headed concerns and criticisms, but the outright whiners tend to be louder, you know? I think it's up to developers to pick and choose what...

I'm definitely excited about a couple of games on the list, though I've already gotten one of the games I've been anticipating the most for this year (Catherine). I can't wait for Saints Row: The Third. It looks even crazier than the previous.

I spent a week there (and Austria) on vacation once and I enjoyed it. Most everyone was very friendly (one storekeeper was a bit snippy with my younger bro, but that was the only thing close to drama that happened with locals). I spent my time in southern Germany (Bavaria) though and they...

Because guns in video games are so very realistic. /sarcasm I can headshot like crazy in Halo Reach but can't aim worth spit with a real pistol in a shooting range. I could never bring myself to dehumanize anyone so I could hurt them either and I've played plenty of violent video games...

I'm not sure about every aspect this researcher brought up about the issue but it's definitely interesting stuff to think on and there certainly is a double standard in play when it comes to where and who is responsible violent crimes and whether or not video games are brought up as far as I can...

It looks interesting, but I'm really curious about the plotline (depending on the game, that's a very important element for me). The demo didn't tell me pretty much anything about what's going on past gameplay, so I'll monitor it but I'm hesitant.

I was totally going to say this one. The Nine Inch Nails original was alright, but Johnny Cash's cover was great.

I don't see what's wrong with a guy that can cook. I'm surprised your friends and ex-girlfriends would give you flak for having a useful skill.

Psychonauts, ICO, and Disgaea (though I could probably just list all the games I've played by Nippon Ichi) come to mind almost immediately. Out of those three, I'd say ICO for sure. I've always wanted to try Earthbound (Mother 2), too. The problems are, because of lousy sale, the SNES...

Rep. Baca is such a hypocrite. It's stuff like this that makes me dislike politics; you get irrational hate-mongers like this guy. Also, something really bothers me about his "multi-billion dollar video gaming industry" comment. Probably the fact that he put that in to make it sound like a...

What is up with these groups and always trying to make us gamers/industry members out as bullies? Why don't these guys just be parents and independently control the content their kids see instead of forcing everyone else around them to bend to their will? Also, as pointed out in the...

It doesn't surprise me that Molyneux is saying he's disappointed in Fable's end product. He says that every time. Maybe he should try expanding on the stuff they implemented in the last game to try to iron out the wrinkles instead of attempting to toss in every neat new idea he gets.

That's some pretty awesome covers.

I think so. The first example I can think of is Silent Hill 4. People tend to hate that game since the gameplay is mediocre if not downright annoying and it was clearly rushed, but I do find the story interesting (especially since there's a lot more info in a book about the game's canon that...
