    Halo 3 Outsells PS3's Heavy Hitters Combined

    Ick, don't get me started on Halo 3's campaign. What the crap was up with killing Johnson but keeping the Arbiter, who practically had a neon sign reading "MARTYR" strapped to his back, alive? To be fair, Modern Warfare 2 also had a plot that put my brain through a cheese grater and it was still...

    Halo 3 Outsells PS3's Heavy Hitters Combined

    Should we really count bundled games as sales? My current 360 came bundled with Kung Fu Panda, something that I never would have bought on its own. Edit: The only reason Wii Sports is the highest selling game of all time is because it comes bundled with every Wii.

    Halo 3 Outsells PS3's Heavy Hitters Combined

    A few things. First, high sales figures don't guarantee quality. I seem to remember Meet the Spartans being #1 at the box office, and some of the highlights of that movie resemble a bad Mad TV sketch. And I don't see people rushing out to buy games like Psychonauts or Shadow of the Colossus...

    Harry Potter RPG?

    Lil_Hank, you mean rich-er- XD And I like the idea of it being set 30 years after the events of the books, but if it were to stay true to Rowling's story Kingley Shacklebolt would be minister and Harry would be head of the Auror Office. Hell, he could give you an Auror questline. I can...

    Harry Potter RPG?

    The Unforgiveables would require huge amounts of energy in a game (obviously there would be an energy system in place), and Stupefy is a stunning spell. Besides, in Oblivion do you use every spell in your arsenal, or that badass make-everything-die spell?

    Harry Potter RPG?

    Oh, and obvious races include wizard, house-elf and goblin.

    Harry Potter RPG?

    With the books all finished and one (well, technically two) films to go, is it time to start thinking of a -decent- game? Think about it: We've got an elaborate mythology from seven encyclopedia-sized books, and what did those books focus on? One school, in one country in the wizard world...

    Games that you quote

    Whenever I say the word "Cousin" it's usually in a bad impression of Roman Bellic.

    Halo 3 ODST Ad

    Actually, I quite agree about the ad. I don't like the ODST ad campaign nearly as much as I liked Halo 3's. While Halo is such a known entity that they don't need gameplay footage to advertise it, why did they have to go with that? The John-117 memorial ads were interesting and made me REALLY...

    Poll: Did you enjoy Halo 3: ODST?

    I'm not a troll. I'm a Halo fan who wanted an ODST thread on here that wasn't trolltacular. Believe me, if I were a troll I'd have made my point by now. If you want me to bash ODST, then fine. Here come the nitpicks. I didn't like the title. Somehow Halo: Recon had a much better ring to it...

    Poll: Did you enjoy Halo 3: ODST?

    Personally I thought it was an engaging, enjoyable game. Was it the greatest game of all time? Certainly not, but what it is is an incredibly fun FPS with a mystery twist added to the series' formula.

    What is Yahtzee Going to Hell For?

    I'd say he'd go to hell for claiming Portal is better than Jesus. XD And imagine him in hell. He'd be forced to play every game he's ever done a scathing review for. And the controllers would constantly get disconnected and the buttons would be sticky. And there'd be a constant ticker on the...
