    MGS1 on play-station or MGS:The twin snakes?

    I'd say the original, if only because it's only $10 on PSN and Twin Snakes is most likely difficult to find. But other than that you can't go wrong with either, though they have some relatively minor differences that may influence your decision: For one the music is definitely better in the...

    Autumn, a game about rape

    Although I don't believe the game will be in any way successful in achieving its intended goal, I do believe that games like this have a right to exist. Even if it does end up being horribly offensive or unrepresentative of actual victims, I appreciate the fact that the developers tried and if...

    In The Last of Us, Joel Had It Right

    I didn't think the fireflies were stupid, so much as they were very desperate and impatient. The reason they are so quick to want to kill Ellie rather than run tests first is because if you find the recordings in the hospital you learn that they've been running tests on infected individuals for...

    In The Last of Us, Joel Had It Right

    I think I remember them saying somewhere in the game that Ellie's immunity came not from her own biology, but from the fact that she was infected by a mutated strain of cordyceps. One that wouldnt spread and eventually sprout out of her head. If anything the fireflies didnt need Ellie at...

    Why can't many games do exploration as well as Skyrim?

    That's true, the overworld is pretty good. I've always appreciated the more organic aspects to the Bethesda games, like when a dragon attacks a settlement randomly and a huge fight breaks out. I always wish that any NPC could die, imagine if Ulfric Stormcloak was taking a stroll through Windhelm...

    Looking for a depressing game.

    The Last of Us was fairly depressing for me, but you may find it forced I suppose.

    Steam hits 8.5 million concurrent online users

    Jeez, second page and already it's a pissing contest. Im genuinely curious, why does anyone care if someone plays on a different platform then there own? Does it somehow make you enjoy your chosen platform less?

    Reviewers jumping on the hype train

    I just wanna say that not all user reviews are garbage, but as for metacritic user reviews... Those are just plain bad. If anything, at least professional reviewers can write coherent sentences and usually expound upon their opinions rather than just "This game is shit, 1/10 would not play...

    The Most Overrated Games that Aren't

    Every goddamn game I have ever enjoyed is over/underrated to someone. I just ask that people don't beat me over the head with their opinions or try to pass them off as anything other than subjective.

    Why can't many games do exploration as well as Skyrim?

    Eh, if Skyrim had more variety I'd be inclined to agree, but every dungeon falls into one of the same few archetypes. Draugr dungeon, falmer dungeon, bandit dungeon etc. That, and there really isn't all that much to do outside of fetching and killing. When I think about it, any game where the...
