I didn't know either. After a little investigation, it appears that he was talking about retsuprae [http://www.youtube.com/user/retsupurae].

I am completely put off by the standard medieval fantasy setting and character types. Fortunately, a huge portion of games with such things are RPGs, which means I wouldn't have played them anyway.

Scourge Done Slick was the best one I saw back in the day, but I haven't really kept an eye out for good ones since.

I think that simplifies the definition too much. Is Infamous an RPG because you're playing the role of Cole McGrath? Is Halo an RPG because you're playing the role of Master Chief? The role needs to be chosen by the player, otherwise you get a definition which includes Infamous and Halo and...

Probably because of the long-running association of console gaming with playing from the couch. The couch is not at all mouse/keyboard friendly.

If it's completely inactive, it'll get paged out and will take zero physical RAM and zero CPU time.

He was on the cover of MLB 2k9.

EA annoyed the piss out of me twice with this demo: First, by playing a long unskippable trailer prior to letting me play the demo, and second by locking out one of the two events because I have no friends who have played the demo. I'm someone who could not care less about online features and...

Sounds good, unless... Nope, they still haven't dropped Securom from it. No sale.

Rubbing alcohol and a cotton swab.

Sure you can. It's called paintball. Of course there are differences between FPS games and paintball, but to say there's no difference between playing, say, MLB 10: The Show and playing in real life is outright ignorant. Just go to a park and play soccer? It'd need to not be raining...

The Parrots. You know, the ones who repeat lines from their favourites completely devoid of context and think that it makes them cool and/or funny. Portal fans have held this crown for the last while after taking it away from Chappelle fans parrotting the Rick James skit.

No, Saints Row 2 did it earlier. I don't know if it was first, though.

Prince of Persia: Sands of Time. I just get so annoyed and frustrated by the horribly tedious combat.
