I heartily agree. Middle Earth is genuinely deep (it would need to be given the amount of time Tolkien dedicated to it) however his stories (in particular The Lord Of The Rings) may be inventive but they are also incredibly drawn out and in many places he's prone to rambling. (And to think Rings...

In Soviet Russia, this humor is deemed inappropriate for people of Soviet Russia. Please be patient for arrival of agent of KGB for transport to People's Re-education Center.

And I was that man.

Glad I wasn't the only one who looked at it and went 'Terminator'. I was actually quite disappointed when the Larva came to life, I would have preferred fight some uber-Collector that was trying to defend it or launch it to a secure facility away from Shepard's team. I did however love the...

Not really, common factor there is a broody protagonist/combatant. It's almost as generic in execution as the Mass Effect 2 box art. Well... further away than almost. Had I not played the first the second would never have gotten played based on it's box. Better to hint at the storyline (in my...

Basically I'm a 28 year old teenager, though I suspect that at some point I'll eventually have to grow up.

I would guess Total Annihilation. Would have suggested Earth 2150 as a possible alternate but as I recall it had 3D and Zoom effects.

I agree totally, in fact I must confess that I myself have written fan fiction in the past, once as a side story to Thunder Force 4 (many moons ago) and another series based loosely on Planetside (though they were more of a spin-off) and I used these stories mainly as an opportunity to...

All I want, all I really really want is the galaxy map of ME1 back. I hate the system in ME2, flying the wee ship around makes it look more like a Final Fantasy world map than a starship navigation system. Getting some of the weapon/armor customization back would be nice, but I'd settle for...

The point of playing as a human was because that, being human, we could empathize with the struggle to have human-kind accepted in a galactic community ruled by aliens who were longer lived, stronger, or just outright smarter. The idea of humanity saving the day was that the things that make us...

Nah, Once Upon A Time In Mexico was only good when Johnny Depp was on-screen, the rest of it was a bit meh, "I can't see, fucknook, I have no eyes". From Dusk Til Dawn was awesome though, "I NEVER SAID HELP US!" "Well that doesn't matter because you've got about 3 fuckin' seconds to live." (I...

"A Film Noir Love Story" Never in the history of gaming did a tagline put so many people off an otherwise awesome game. (Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne)

That overpowered Black Hole gun from Unreal 2 in Tetris. Ultimate line clearance. Or the Land Shark Gun from Armed & Dangerous in Deus Ex (just to lower the tone).

Whilst I could probably write a long list of directors that the world could do without I think that it's only fair to point out that a lot of blame lies in the hands of the producers. The role of the director mainly is to get the best angle to point the camera then hope and pray that the actors...
