    You get to greenlight a sequel to any game that has ever existed. Which game do you choose?

    Initial thought (some spoilers)- Final Fantasy IX. My absolute favorite game in the series and one I've been desperate to return to for a long time. Some explanation of Necron by setting him up as the primary villian of IX-2 (as it would probably be called) would be good, as well as exploring...

    Fox Already Looking At First Class Sequel

    More young Xavier/Magneto? Count me in. Loved First Class and will be happy to see more of that arc. JFK's assassination is the obvious "big event" to do next, chronologically speaking, especially as he appeared briefly in the first film, but they may bypass that for sensitive reasons.

    Escape to the Movies: Green Lantern

    Given Bob seems to have hit his personal equivalent of Defcon 1 over this (seriously, the level of rage on display here eclipses both that of his hatred for the Transformers movies and that The Expendables beat out Scott Pilgrim in the box office), there had better not be a sequel or he'll...

    Greatest final boss theme?

    I nominate the last boss of the first Shadow Hearts. A fairly obscure entry, but one very dear to my heart. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYAq27BhZuA&feature=watch_response

    What do you want to see in Mass Effect 3?

    Hmm. Good question. For my own part, I'd like to see Liara and Kaidan/Ashley become playable again (presumably after Liara finishes up her ME2 storyline). Wrex would be nice too, although considering where he is in ME2 he'll probably just turn up as your reinforcements against the Reapers...

    Zero Punctuation: Final Fantasy XIII

    Not acceptable to you, maybe. But that says nothing about it except that you didn't have the patience to stick with it. And even if it is, Yahtzee is paid (I assume) to review games. It is NOT too much to ask to have said reviewer play the entire game before posting up a lot of hate-filled bilge...

    Review: Final Fantasy XIII

    Surely 12 suffers from this problem far more then 13 does? Unless you actively sit down and grind through long chains of enemies to amass hordes of loot, you won't be able to afford most of the equipment and spells by around the midpoint of the game, if not before. I also personally believe 12's...

    Zero Punctuation: Final Fantasy XIII

    I must agree with Beau entirely. Not all FF fans are mindless unthinking apologists who defend the games where they really ought not to be defended. Yahtzee's review is poor simply because only playing the first five hours does not give you an accurate picture of the game in any sense- not its...

    Review: Final Fantasy XIII

    I'll throw in my two cents, though I haven't finished the game yet so I can't comment on the story. There are many good things about FF13. The graphics are amazing, the characters feel human (in that they have likeable and dislikable aspects, and they do grow on you over time), and the combat...
