    Why I Am Patient With The VGAs

    Thought I'd post my two cents on this issue, as reading through the article I couldn't help but think it was deliberately contrarian. 1) Firstly, your comment about alternatives. Like some have said, no, it's not necessarily the job of some, whilst criticising how a specific product is...

    Things in games that need to stop.

    Sorry for the sarcasm, was exagerrating a bit there. And, no, I don't see why it is a bad thing - again, because of the whole mythos of the story Assassins Creed means that the developers want to tell the story a certain way, and want gamers to understand this (and all the reviews...

    Things in games that need to stop.

    Why? Books, films, video games, all these mediums have been adding words rather then simply jusrt numbers since the beginning of time. And your use of assassins creed is possibly the worst, most inaccurate comparison you could make. The entire point is, the Assassins Creed games have number on...

    My first encounter

    Just a quick point about this post - it's also the employee's job to *not* make recommendations about games like COD because of the fact that the vast amjority of them are rated M - and he shouldn't be (able to) buy these games. I'd even argue that they would be acting totally irresponsible to...

    The PS3 may have just had its front door kicked open

    The issue with Linux though was to combat piracy. why - as it was found that if you installed linux, you could, rather trivially, mod it (certainly easier then it is with the new system of modding) to play illegal games. Not homebrew, nothing was mentioned of that at the time; the haackers...

    What is with the hate on sequels?

    I think the issue with many games, mainly shooters, is the sequel really is nothing more then a small new campaign, and some new MP maps (hello, COD) I really don't get the comments re AC:B being like an expansion pack - as a game it is as big as the original (in fact for a similar % complete...

    Why isn't sony announcing anything?

    ah they not doing exactly what every company usually does and wait until they are happy to show the device off to announce. You know, like apple did with the iPhones and the iPad (all of which we knew about, for longer, and with more certainty, then the Sony PSP Phone). Apple did it so that...

    Borderlands... Is it worth it?

    Got to say, the game was one of the best 5 games of 2009, alongside Demon souls, Infamous, Uncharted and Assassins Creed 2. Yep, it was, IMO, that good, better certainly then batman, MW2, and the like all of which are usually as quoted as contenders for 2009 GOTy. It is for me, the best FPS...

    Anyone else have this problem with music?

    You sir are awesome, I was so pleased when I got to see them play last year at the most awesome High Voltage Festivla in London! Even those albums whih aren't actually concept album should still be put together in such a way that not owning the whole album and listening to how it progresses...

    Russ Pitts' Five Favorites 2010

    hmm, no offence intended Russ but apart from starcraft 2 that is possibly the worst "top 5 list" I could imagine. Crackdonwn for instance was an ok game, worth of a 8/10. Crackdown not only doesn't offer *any* improvements to the original, it is actually *worse* in many respects then the...
