    Fallout: New Vegas

    Yes, THIS, all of this. I definitely feel like I'm being shepherded along in New Vegas, like the main plot line is just kind of sitting there, tapping its foot and checking its watch, waiting for me to check the next task off its list. I feel like I have to go hunting for side quests and 90 of...

    Fallout: New Vegas

    I don't see how you can say he disregarded it given that the review clearly shows that he played a good deal of the game. To the point, I've always felt that the Oblivion-style games strike a good balance. Yes you can basically teleport, but you have to at least hike there on foot and...

    Poll: What is your sexual orientation?

    You know that's not normal, right? You should see a doctor. That's like saying you don't shit or don't sleep.

    Gaming Legends / Myths?

    In Super Mario Brothers 2 if you managed to sprint perfectly at the end of a level you could jump over the flagpole. You could make Ken/Ryu do the random red fireball if you knew the right technique. There really was a blood code on the SNES version of Mortal Kombat, but only a few...

    Is this illegal??

    Nope, not legal. Go hire a lawyer and sue him over your $20.

    A thought on 'imbalance'.

    I'd say all is fair game, except for one thing... Eddie Gordo. When I went to trade in Tekken 6, the clerk opened the box and the disc fell out in 9 pieces. I had forgotten that I even did that. I must have blacked out in my rage.

    Zero Punctuation: Alan Wake

    So many of you aren't going to get this game just because Yahtzee gave it a shitty review? Isn't that kind of what he gets paid to do? It was a funny review and I enjoyed it, but I thought Alan Wake was one of the best written games I've ever played. It might be second only to Call of Cthulhu.

    Enjoy TES IV Oblivion? Fallout 3? Come play _____________

    Yes. What they must have meant to say was that it was CRAP. Utter, steaming, unadulterated, homogenized, pasteurized corn-fettered crap.

    Best, Worst and most Disturbing video game endings.

    Call of Cthulhu had probably the most disturbing ending of any game I've ever played.

    Zero Punctuation: Aliens vs Predator

    I don't understand why people always complain about the long animations for the grab kills. Nothing is forcing you to use the grab kills, they are an option. If you do the instant kill move you balance that advantage with the disadvantage of being vulnerable. If you don't want to suffer the...

    Zero Punctuation: Aliens vs Predator

    Personally I love this game. It's not perfect, but the multiplayer is a great alternative when I just don't feel like spending another hour on the same old CoD maps with the same old CoD weapons. Munching predator brains is a blast.

    Woman grows horn out of forehead?

    I'm less disturbed by the horn than the fact that she is apparently munching on a pigeon.

    Gaming characters that you really want to kill

    Quite a few of the children in Fallout 3. Made me want to buy a gaming PC just so I could get the mod. M. Bison, just because the AI fucking CHEATS. That whiny neurotic biotic from Mass Effect 1, sending him on a suicide mission wasn't enough for me. Mario in Super Mario Bros. 1...

    Fallout 3 - Hidden gems and random discoveries

    No, it was a cave. And there had been kids down there. And there were stripper stages complete with poles. And the floor were all littered with teddy bears and milk bottles.

    Fallout 3 - Hidden gems and random discoveries

    I don't remember, it's been months since I played Fallout. But that cave gave me the willies more than anything else in the whole game. If I remember right there were some other subtle cues like journals or some other backstory that implied what was happening there.
