    Jimquisition: Videogames Are Not Movies, Get Over It

    Not to be rude, but I rather see The Big Picture then this. My reasons why are as following. At least get some decent audio going on. The music and the bad mic makes it hard to listen to. And the subject of this episode has been done to death. Just my two cents.

    What would you like to see in a game?

    I think you have a point there, but I don't think the project in this thread is at that level. So that would make the comparison not as usefull.

    What would you like to see in a game?

    I would really suggest to look into this more actively. Most people have a very short attention span. Speaking for myself, if an "epic" RPG doesn't catch my attention storywise in the first 2 hours of the game, I will probably won't finish it. That said, I'm not a big RPG fan cause the story...

    When did you get your first M rated game?

    Does Wolfenstein 3D count? Don't know if there were ratings back then but I was about 6 or 7 years old. I have played alot of games since then, still haven't killed, assaulted or raped anybody in my live. According to Fox News I must be the next Messiah :)

    Enemies that you absolutely hate to fight in video games

    I'm going way back on this one, those damn blob monster that multiply themselfs (can't describe them better) in Secret of Mana on the SNES. Reason why I refer to this old game, because I recently played it again on a emulator. I really liked that game :)
