Truer words have not been spoken. It's like I said in an above post, all of these shooters are compared to CoD, therefore all studios try to be more like CoD, leading to a lack on innovation. I do like how more studios are going for what I call the "post-modern" shooter. These are the titles...

Yeah it doesn't help there are literally 15 of them a year it seems, and they all seem to be very similar with just a few modifications.

And yet CoD is THE standard that many FPS are held up to now. When it comes to multiplayer, these games that tout realism are held to the same lofty standards CoD set in MW1. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying any other game is bad, although I detest BF3, I'm just pointing out that this is the...

While I agree the stories in the single player is lackluster, I'm mainly referring to the gameplay in both single and multi player. The gameplay is what Activision tries to keep realisitic. However, let's be fair no FPS has set the world on fire with a truly stellar story. It's mainly what toys...

Well since DC just relaunched all their major franchises recently with the "New 52" initiative now is a good time to "go full nerd". It seems to be widely successful as now marvel plans to do the same. I'd just do a quick search for what franchises got the reboot, and grab the first issues.

There's a difference in that. TF2 is more of an arcade shooter where realism almost doesn't exist at times. Meanwhile games Modern Shooters like MW3 focus on being as realistic as possible. As for me, every year I buy the newest CoD (I know I'm a sheep, and I play the hell out of it for like...

There is no right or wrong here, gaming is always been open to interpretation. If you feel that you might enjoy what WoW brings to the table, then do some research yourself, download the free trial, and find out. If you have other friends who want to play, or are already playing that can also...

Hmmm after inspecting this one (and Yatzee's review again) this is one I might also have to take a look at. I do love strategy RPGs similar to FF Tactics. And yes there are other Persona fans, you are not alone.

Modern Warfare 1's matchmaking had the same flaws, and they were worse. I feel that the multiplayer in both was way too unbalanced at times, and this is mainly due to the spawn system. When I am killed by a harrier jet, and then spawn directly in the line of fire of the same jet, only then to...

Thanks for the fine list of recommendations. I planned on giving Uncharted a look due to the massive praise it is getting (and that my PS3 might come with it), and I have always loved Ratched and Clank. I've herd Demon's Soul is downright evil when it comes to difficulty, but it is by Atlus and...

I love Sledge's shotgun from Borderlands. You get it early on, and if playing as the Soldier class and specd for increased shotgun damage, spread, and increased magazine just makes this gun God mode. It shoots 2 full blasts at your target, doing massive damage, and knocking them into next week...

Fable 2 was probably my biggest letdown. The removal of an armor system, and a mana bar just waters this game down to the bare basics of a game not an RPG but an regular game. I call this stripping of a game to more basic elements in order to accommodate the more "casual" audience CGS or "Casual...

Well the title sums it up, I have been told that I am getting a 80g PS3 for Christmas. Now the question is, what games should I add to my list so I have something to play on this black behemoth. I already own a 360, and would like to avoid choosing between the two consoles unless there is...

I've played a FPS on all 3 consoles so I can give an opinion on all. Wii: Well the motion controls sound good, but for many games trying to incorporate the inaccuracy that most Wii games seem to have with frantic shooting combat dosen't work. However, these games are usually a little less...

all I can say is I lawld, the name of the achievement plus the parameters...priceless.
