    Wait a second, that WORKED?!

    I've played through the game at least five times so far. If you can get past the camera sometimes being uncooperative and a few bugs, I found that it's seriously fun. Even more so with the patched version available from Obsidian.

    Wait a second, that WORKED?!

    On one of my playthroughs of Alpha Protocol, I was playing as a recruit on Hard difficulty, and I specialized in SMGs, martial arts, and stealth as my main methods of taking people down. The boss fight that I had the most trouble with was on the Russian yacht (seriously, I lost count of how many...

    Talking to yourself while gaming.

    I do this to the point where I end up with a running commentary on games I play. I talk like I'm being recorded, especially if I'm playing Resident Evil 5's Mercenaries mode and the Lost in Nightmares DLC.

    GAMES YOU HATE. Say something nice about them!

    Far Cry 2: You looked nice. Modern Warfare 2: At least you didn't go *completely* realistic.

    Characters you despise, but aren't supposed to.

    I see Carth and Kaidan have already been mentioned multiple times, so here's a new one: Sgt. Reznov of CoD: WaW. Now, let me just say this: I liked him at first. The starting mission with him was fairly tolerable and he at least didn't get in the way of me shooting Nazis. Then everything...

    Have you ever felt a deep, personal hatred towards an NPC?

    To be honest, I'm a bit surprised this guy hasn't come up yet: Sand of Neverwinter Nights 2. Or, to be more specific, Sand's voice. Sand speaks his lines in the most nasal and snobbish manner possible, to the point where I want to rip his vocal cords out and tie them around his (entirely...

    Take your favorite game - and RIP IT TO SHREDS!

    Alright, round 2: Dragon Age: Origins: 1. It takes too long to really get going. Seriously, my replaying interest wanes after a good 1-2 hours of running around a swamp and a village. 2. In my case, my PC has some difficulty running the fight scenes smoothly. I attack someone, and if...

    Take your favorite game - and RIP IT TO SHREDS!

    Vampire: the Masquerade Bloodlines: 1. You need the unofficial patches to actually *play* the game. 2. The water effects are buggy as hell. Seriously, you couldn't fix this in *any* of the unofficial patches?! 3. The Natural History Museum level is nigh-impossible to complete stealthily...

    Game Music on your iPod

    I've been trying to find more Resident Evil 5 music for my iPod. Currently, I have 3: In Flames, Assault Fire, and Mercenaries Reunion. I'm currently trying to find Two on Two, Sad but True, and Winds of Madness.

    What are you dressing up as this Halloween

    I'm not planning on having a costume, however, my younger brother is planning to go as Dr. Salvador of Resident Evil 4.

    Terrible Parts in Great Games

    The vehicle mission in CoD:WaW. If I'm so much as slightly jostled by a stray rocket I can't see shit, the flamethrower is incapable of killing anyone standing behind a 1 ft high wall (ditto for the main gun), and Sgt. Reznov is seriously. Fucking. ANNOYING. His directions are crap (what do...

    Moments that makes you facepalm

    I had to deliver letters to recent widows in Dragon Age: Origins. Here's how the first conversation went: Widow: Yes? Me: Would someone like to handle this for me? Oghren: Uh... hey, good news! You're single! Me: *Cue facepalm*

    Mass effect: origins

    I'd probably buy it. That is, assuming BioWare doesn't release it in an unpolished state (I'm looking at YOU, Dragon Age: Awakening).
