    Fundamentally flawed gaming cliches

    Also, the double jump. That's right...pushing off the air can make you go higher. Don't ask how or they cut you.

    Annoying Gaming Details

    One thing that always gets to me is how supremely confident your enemy in the game always is. I mean, yes he tries to stop you...but if I had been watching a lone person defeat my minions and deathtraps at every turn I think I would be a little more panicked!

    Fundamentally flawed gaming cliches

    The fact that you are always carrying around enough weaponry to level a small city yet cannot use any of it to get past a locked door

    A Family Friendly Zombie Apocalypse

    This seems funny to me, as so many of the initial zombie movies relied on excessive blood and gore and that's one of the reasons some of them got such a cult following.

    Most embarrassing fear?

    A really random one in my case...wasps crawling into my ears.

    Why do we play bad games?

    That says some very depressing things about the gaming industry as a whole...

    Why do we play bad games?

    It was 'The Simpsons Game' (quotes were in the wrong place before), the most recent...I think.

    Why do we play bad games?

    I finished playing 'The Simpsons' for the PS2 the other day and I spent most of my time swearing at the bad camera and clunky controls...I really didn't enjoy playing (except for the occasional funny moment).

    Games you wonder if anyone else has played...

    Another one I like was Skies of Arcadia:Legends (the GC version). That was another good Nintendo port that rather slipped under the rug...

    Does being drunk affect your gaming performance?

    Once before a night out I left my console on due to being between save-points and having no more time. Waking up the next morning with some suspicious gaps in my memory I found the power off, leading to an 'oh shit' moment when I assumed I had turned it off when I staggered to bed. To my...

    Games you wonder if anyone else has played...

    Yup, played that one and some of the others in the series (like Phantasia). Just picked up a new unheard-of game as well - Ghost Master for the PS2. Seems reasonably fun so far...

    Secret gaming confessions

    Umm, I have one slightly more embarrassing.

    Games you wonder if anyone else has played...

    Found a copy of this in a game store today and they didn't have the disk...I guess I'll have to look online. Also, someone mentioned Shadow Hearts...just started on the first one and I'm really loving it.
