I was going to say (in agreement with the OP) that I also find the pre-emptive anger against ME3 (or indeed any other UNRELEASED game/film/novel) to be mystifying, bordering on surreal. After all, how often, have people been right about something entirely on the basis of its initial...

Combustion Kevin, I have to agree with all the people who've basically said: 'don't ask/it doesn't come across well/you wouldn't want to know the answers, even if there -were- answers -- which there mostly aren't... I think that the main point is, that as several people have said, there...

Hang on. Who is this "Bob" you're talking about who "sometimes acts like an elitist?" You can't possibly mean the Iron Man loving, geek culture worshiping guy who reviews films for the Escapist... I mean, that would be Bob "Super Mario brothers was one of the defining cultural events of my...

Not to surrender my (admittedly yet to be acquired) reputation for cool, measured judgments devoid of unnecessary gushing, but: Let's face it people, Rebecca Mayes is what would happen if you took 15 delicate variations on brilliant, talented and wonderful, composed them into a...

This one's my favourite so far. Haunting, beautiful, it relates so perfectly to Rebecca's mission statement, which is to make a song inspired by a game: not a review of, or an ad or a soundtrack for the game (which already has it's trailers, soundtracks and so on) but something where the...

According to a dozen or so articles published every year for the last decade, gaming is becoming "ever-more popular with an increasingly diverse audience of, y'know, like, real people: hipsters as well as nerds, women as well as men, adults as well as children..." With its growing popularity...
