    Unskippable: Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory, Part 1

    I want to see that. I don't know why, but I do.

    What is the next "Big Leap" for Graphics and visuals?

    I'd guess the next "leap" would be in physics simulation.

    Poll: do you think ME2 is to blame for most issues in ME3?

    Hmmm. What if the tech used to make the baby reaper in the collector base also offered a powerful way of killing them off - Shepard wants to use it to destroy them, Illusive Man wants to blackmail them with it to control them, Shepard runs to alliance with tech, Cerberus becomes the enemy...

    Good Sci-Fi Book Recommendations

    The Mote in God's Eye is awesome (and non-religious, title is abstract), very, very hard sci-fi, well-developed setting. Footfall is also pretty cool, if you see a cover with an elephant holding an M16, don't be worried, that artist took... significant liberties with the subject :P

    Valve Gets a Jump On Hardware

    Monopoly means having near-exclusive control of something. The console market already has three giants. I dooooon't think they're going to crush the xbox, playstation and wii in one go.

    Did "Other M" hurt the Metroid series? (and what do you want to see next?)

    Slap the original creator away (from the story, not gameplay if it's 2d), get Retro Studios back on it. Needs moar first-person-adventure, the Metroid Prime: Trilogy box is perhaps the greatest thing on the Wii. Corruption was a bit less explore-y (although the occasional setpiece battles were...

    Black Ops 2 or Halo 4?

    Keep in mind that Cortana going crazy's been shadowed since around Halo 2, maybe even a bit earlier. Most of it was in the expanded universe, though. Plus, most signs point to the "Covenant" present in Halo 4 just being Elite/Grunt/Jackal pirates, note how a lot of the Elites don't even have a...

    Good hard sci-fi?

    :P oh there's plenty. Ever seen "Spock's Brain"? Plus, all the humanoid aliens are a big meh, and the "yup all life is programmed to become humanoid aliens" NG episode makes it even sillier :P Then there are the space hippies and the greek gods. Hand of Apollo w/ Enterprise: It's a fun as...

    Good hard sci-fi?

    :? Which generation you thinking about? I'm only familiar with OG and NG, and that science was about as hard as pudding. WARPSPEED MR SPOCK TO GREEN BABE PLANET ---- Otherwise, I'd say Starship Troopers is pretty solid, apart from a single quirk or two. If you want some pretty...

    DmC looks great, what's with all the hate?

    How do developers know what dissatisfies players without feedback? And widespread complaints have had an effect in the past - Fallout 3/Mass Effect 3 both received DLC changes to their endings following fan outcries, after all.

    Wow, Vaas from Far Cry 3 is one of the best villains I've ever seen.

    Not sure about the first trailer. The way it went from being hogtied and screamed at by a lunatic to lunging on everything doing knife-tricks in 30 seconds clashes badly.

    Should you feel guilty for eating meat?

    Farming plants kills many animals, not to mention the wildlife killed off by creating the farmland in the first place. Unless you're carefully growing it all in your backyard, critters died for your food.

    Replayable DLC

    Depends on the game, and on the DLC. Which DLC for which game are you getting? Say, if you completed Shivering Isles in Oblivion, you could only repeat the quests if you started a new save file, or if you downloaded the DaVinci quests in AC: Brotherhood, you can replay them from the pause menu...

    Something I just realized about Mass Effect 3 (spoilers ahead)

    When he said he didn't understand why, he was a Geth collective (although far from the rest of his race). When he decided to upload the code, he'd already used it to become an individual. I assume becoming a sentient individual changed his perspective on individuality.
