Two issues here: The first is that inflation is not necessarily what might be thought of as a constant across everything. Housing getting far more expensive when other things do not is inflation, but it leads to misleading comparisons, as you can still buy, say, the same number of loaves per...

I have only ever played one GTA game - GTA III - and I didn't think much of it. I played Saint's Row 2 for a couple hours and got bored. The heists in this game sound interesting, but I'm not sure if having a trillion things to do which aren't especially fun is actually a good thing - filler...

PETA is a terrorist front group; is it really wise to give them attention?

Thing is, its just not that big of a deal. It had some problems on launch day. So what? It happens sometimes. In fact, it happens oftentimes. It sucks, but its the way things are. If you wait two days, then things will usually be fixed by then. That's why I don't rush for launch day on most...

The problem is already fixed, and was, frankly, never a big deal. I am not Jabba the Hutt; I can move from in front of my computer (or, you know, play another fun game instead) if the servers are down, and I have never (not even once) had a problem with the servers since release. Period...

This is not the optimal solution, for exactly the reasons I outlined in my post - the fact of the matter is, the game is ultimately focused on multiplayer, not single player, and they don't want to put people in the situation where the character they've played with for a long time in single...

Ah, nerd rage. Deep and abiding nerd rage. Here's reality: servers going down sucks. Here's another reality: servers are going to go down sometimes unless you are Google or Microsoft. Here's a third reality: always being online, and all characters having to be multiplayer characters, is...

1) This is an obvious hoax. 2) What day comes after March 31st? Are you guys really this gullible? 3) Anonymous wouldn't do this; Anonymous LIKES the internet, they wouldn't take it down. 4) Taking down those servers is incredibly difficult. If it was easy to do this sort of thing...

The real flaw with DLC is that it is very likely to fracture your player base. Map packs are a great example of something that is just going to make it so that a new player who bought the game won't be able to play multiplayer with their friends half the time. Some will buy the stuff out of...

Games are worse in some ways, and better in others. There are games being made today that simply couldn't be made previously, or would have been (or were) much weaker in the past. The problem is a fewfold. First, there is a tendency to insert excessive narration into every game. Old games...

It sounds like Yahtzee stopped playing the game pretty quickly from the review, as the large monsters are actually somewhat interesting to fight. It takes rather too long to get to the large monsters, and the grinding part is moronic and obnoxious, but fighting the large monsters is actually...

I have to second or third or fourth everyone else. I, too, thought that you'd give up after a limerick or two, but you didn't, and it was totally awesome. Limericks are inherently somewhat funny, and insulting a game in limerick form is pretty amusing.

Wolcik, I hate to break this to you, but... You're playing a video game. You don't play video games to look cool, because, frankly, it doesn't matter whether you're using the Wiimote or playing with a controller, you simply are not going to look cool while playing them. Have you ever watched...

I think it is valid for people to complain about his constant ragging on the Wii; it is the most popular console (and therefore the most people own it) which means that a good portion of his audience is going to possess it. Thing is, he DOES complain about everything, so really getting upset...
