I very much agree with the idea that if you go with a bonkers enough setup you can get away with anything Bayonetta is obviously very gratuitous in its sexuality but this is game where giant hair monsters beat up "angels" which are actually 50 feet tall dragons with baby faces. To me it's kinda...

I find that an interesting take on spiderman 3. That said with regards to the finger guns and the rest of that awful jazz club scene deliberately awful is still awful. I didn't really notice venom much in that movie what bothered me more was sandman. This might be what happens in the comics but...

It really is a shame. I just got the Vita a few weeks ago to play persona 4 golden (this happened a little before they announced persona 4 will be available on psn) and Im amazed at just how beautiful things look on it and Ive been trying to find more stuff for it because it really is a useful...

Not liking the ending of a game isn't pathetic. It's a completely valid complaint for any game but in the case of ME3 it wasn't that the ending was bad but rather felt inadequate given the investment a lot of people had in the game from building a character through 3 games and feeling like every...

I cant believe a man that has said "konami is konami and konami is the worst" and "only konami could have the easiest job in the world and still fuck it up because konami is konami" is surprised he was blacklisted by konami. Theres only so much shit you can say about a company before they take...

In general Ive found that I never want to buy more than 1 piece of good dlc for a game. The only exceptions for me were borderlands 1 and Valkyria Chronicles where I bought 3 pieces of dlc. By the time the second piece of dlc comes out for most games Ive lost interest and moved on and a dinky...

After browsing through lists of characters I found one more recent than Vertigo ironically enough from another ridiculous fighting game: Sheeva from Mortal Kombat 3. While technically she is fighting basically a singlet the males of that race just wear speedos as combat attire so I think that's...

The word is definitely being misused particularly in the cases of last of us and bioshock infinite which both have different problems neither of which relates to violence. The flaw undermining bioshock infinite is that it feels the need to keep reminding us that we are playing a bioshock game...

I think you hit the nail on the head with this one. Id say this more directly ties into last weeks episode about reasonable budgets for games. Good games with strong accessible mechanics are what sells not specific genres. Some genres of games will have bigger audiences than others but all have...

In that case it is something that could have easily fallen into the category of legacy bug. That is a bug they know about from previous games but had no problem shipping those games with that bug in there and so feel safe shipping the current game with it in there and is something might only...

As for why something that is commonly occuring at 60+ hours of play is not getting picked up by QA teams there is a simple explanation for that. A bug that occurs after 60 hours of playing a game is very difficult and very expensive to find. It means a tester has to spend 60 hours on the same...

You're probably not going to like this answer but it is likely the closest I can think of to a correct answer and that is: it depends. Ive worked in video game QA for a while and in general when gamebreaking bugs ship it is because the QA teams on the high end are around 20 people and are more...

Unless you are deathly afraid of any change whatsoever go with Batman. Uncharted is the same game youve already played twice

Hmmm skyrim story ok. I walked up a mountain with no enemies on it then talked to some guys in a fortress where they told me how to shout at things, I walked down the mountain to the nearest village, fast travelled to some other remote village, walked to some underground ruins, killed 10 or so...

I tend to suck at high skill level things but I did unlock every cheat in the original goldeneye. Infinite ammo and the silver PP7 were definitely the hardest
