I chalk this up to total ignorance of culture. In India, the different regional etiquettes and techniques for eating with hands reflect centuries old cultural and economic history. One big reason people continue to eat with their hands in India is the desire to maximize their appreciation for...

Heroic Penguin Enforcer. I picture a cute, cartoonish penguin doing John Woo style action sequences. Or maybe some kind of penguin-noire private detective out for vengeance.

This has been going on for a while. My brother was on a project with ASU five or six years ago. They did the same work with several chimps, implanting the control interface directly into the basal ganglia, making it far superior to other prostheses. It was the same thing: mechanical limb with...

Every day, I think. I live in the US, but I spent two years living in various places in south India, where I would often go for weeks at a time without eating meat and not realize it because the vegetarian food there is so good. I used to think vegetarians had nothing good to eat until I...

I had no idea the Maquis were THAT awesome. Time to rewatch some Star Trek!

I think it was a really bad idea for them to announce that they're making fairly large changes to the gameplay without giving us ANY details. If they would just tell us some specific things they're tweaking, there wouldn't be nearly as many freakouts.

Quantum physics seems to hold the best possibilities for actually traversing the distance (i.e. wormholes).

I'm scared that this game will suck up all my time and attention like PSO did.

1. Shenmue 2 2. Shenmue 3. Skies of Arcaida 4. Shadow of the Colossus 5. Portal 6. Mass Effect 2 7. Silent Hill 2 8. KOTOR 9. Phantom Dust (anyone out there have any love for this game?) 10. Civilization 2

Three pages and only one person has mentioned Patrick Stewart?

It was amazing seeing the girl in Fatal Frame 2 going up stairs like she was actually using each and every step. Not to mention all kinds of other stuff the developers did in that game. I had a few RIDICULOUS scares in that game from events that I thought had to be scripted. When I replayed...

My top two recommendations are usually Trigun and Berserk. Trigun is better for stylized action, Berserk for stylized violence. Trigun is much more light-hearted (most of the time) and Berserk is more intensely serious.

It's not really a monster, but I loved the room in 1408. It seemed to have a personality, and in the movie it felt like it was alive. It does so much to get your imagination working even though it's a hotel room. If I had to pick some kind of physical monster, then this:

The Otogi games! Hardly anyone played 'em. The platforming seemed a little floaty at times (more so in the first one) but the combat was so gorgeous and satisfying. I would mention my favorite Dreamcast games, but reviewers loved them and they technically wouldn't be "underrated." They were...
