    How long should a AAA singleplayer game last?

    It depends rather immensely on the genre of video game. FPS? 10 hours is pretty much enough, especially because I'll start getting sick of it long before that. RPG? Give me a good 30-40 at least, but more, if it's engaging, is good. Action/Adventure? 15-20 hours is probably good. If I...

    Which game serieses have you lost interest in and why?

    Call of Duty. I remember enjoying Call of Duty 2 a whole bunch. Praising it for some of the cooler WWII scenes that weren't so over the top. Now it seems that with free-rein to write their own story and script their own moments into their entire 4 hours worth of campaign, the people who...

    Poll: TES or Fallout?

    I've always been one of the opinion that sword fights are cooler than gun fights. All the time spent playing shooters over the recent years has made me very sick of shooters. So I get very weary of using guns. I definitely welcome the change of up-close and personal first person combat...

    How long is your gaming backlog?

    Hmm, I actually worry quite a bit about my gaming backlog, it's been kind of long lately. Some of the games on there are getting pretty old. I won't even think about the fact that when I was younger I only beat about 1 or 2 of my 40 or so Ps1 games. Just for 360 for the time being though, we...

    You now have a Army of the last thing you killed in a videogame.

    Sinclair Solutions, I do believe I win. I get an army of Borg Tactical Cubes. Wage war on the universe with an army made up of ships that are already destroyers of worlds when going solo.

    Your view on emulators.

    They allow me to play games like LSD on Ps1 without having to shell out $250 because it's rare and a collectible. That's all I use them for, and anything that's actually accessible to me is something I will buy.

    The Oddest Thing You've Considered About a Character...

    I was reading through to see if anyone else would post that. I often find myself asking that same question about characters in games.

    Your Embarrassing Childhood Nickname

    My dad used to call me, "Little Biddy". I guess it was appropriate at the time, but now I'm 6'2" and nobody really calls me that any more. Some people just call me JoJo now.

    Most disturbing/unforgettable moment in gaming.

    The most unforgettable and disturbing part of gaming for me, sadly? Grand Theft Auto IV: The Lost and Damned, when Mayor Stubbs throws off his towel in the steam room, and your confronted with what looks to be one of the hot-dog models attached lovingly to a human form. All humor aside...

    Obscure Gaming Quotes

    Person 1: "He took that punch and was able to get back up. You're just seeing the beard this guy possesses!" Person 2: "I tell you, it's like Santa Claus' beard!" Easy.

    Is there anything you wish was more successful?

    I simply wish that "Urban Reign" on the PS2 had done better in sales. I'd give anything for a sequel to that game. It was one of the best fighting games I've had in my collection. Of course, it's not like a lot of people would agree with me, but the game was given an extremely long replay time...
