    Why I Won't Be Playing God of War 3

    I was going to write a long post about why your reasoning is bizarre, but I have to say you're kind of right.

    Atmosphere in games

    Quite possibly the most atmospheric game ever made is Super Metroid. It's comparable to the movies Alien and Aliens. The amount of detail in both the sound and the visuals is insane for its time. The dark synthesized music score certainly doesn't hurt, either. Just watch the intro for the...

    216: The Curious Case Of Me Jammin' Buttons

    Metal thread

    Is it just me or is melodic death metal the most popular sub-genre right now? I like the genre myself, but I don't love it, mainly because it lacks heaviness (At the Gates is somewhat an exception). Also, the name of the genre is misleading, since the only thing melodic death metal shares with...
