    Portal 2's Wheatley, Now In Puppet Form

    Really? Why? Wheatley actually has a personality, the space core just has his catchphrases.

    Games that should have included an apology in the credits

    I honestly don't think developers should apologise for anything they put out in an attempt to make money, although I did feel a bit cheated when Portal only had about three hours of gameplay in the very first playthrough.

    Poll: what if chell turned up in half life 2 episode 3

    Except for the fact that she escaped the aperture facility and now has literally nowhere to go. If the events of Half-Life and Portal occur simultaneously(because it is canon that they occur in the same universe), Chell has nothing to do but join up with a faction. It might as well be the...

    Poll: what if chell turned up in half life 2 episode 3

    Especially considering Borealis is an apperture vessel.

    Poll: what if chell turned up in half life 2 episode 3

    I trust Valve to make a story decision on their own. They have yet to add something in their games that I disliked. However, my question would be mostly why we should need Chell as a character in the main Half-life franchise. Do we even know where Borealis emerged? It feels sort of contrived...

    So imagine this for an opening scene...

    I heard about that in the "most annoying enemy" thread a couple of days ago. I probably should check that out, as it's been years since I last beat it.

    So imagine this for an opening scene...

    I agree. Still, it's a fun thought experiment, and would look pretty cool if executed correctly, if not feel or play very well. That's a valid couple of points, but that's still en par to piloting a plane or operating heavy construction machinery, both of which you can easily do in many FPS...

    So imagine this for an opening scene...

    I'm no martial artist myself, but I imagine you'd want to keep eye contact with the opponent at all times, so you would just look at him while you're rotating, and when you're about to turn your back, quickly rotate your head 180 degrees to the other side and continue with your kick. Think like...

    So imagine this for an opening scene...

    Oh, don't get me wrong, Jaymes. This is just a spur-of-the-moment idea I'm throwing out there. I'm in no way inclined toward any sort of game making other than perhaps writing RPG modules. I don't think I could be creative enough on command to do that sort of stuff.

    So imagine this for an opening scene...

    From a first person perspective, you look over the remnants of a broken down, sleazy bar. A bystander cowers behind a pool table, broken glass litters the place, and there a small fire in a trash bin by an open emergency exit. As you are huffing and gasping and generally catching your breath...

    Most unfair and cheap enemies ever?

    I honestly never had a huge problem with cliff racers. It's just that, until you get powerful enough to kill them in one blow, they can dodge you for what seems like forever, and knock you off your feet, thus scoring another series of hits as you are defence-less. After you do get powerful...

    Most unfair and cheap enemies ever?

    I just realised nobody has mentioned the Minecraft enemies. In particular, spiders and creepers. Zombies are strong, yet slow, and give themselves away with their incessant moaning. Skeletons, while having a ranged attack, are pretty easy to circle-strafe or just run away from. Spiders, however...

    Most unfair and cheap enemies ever?

    I lol'd. But really, in Morrowind, the cliff racers were pretty nasty once they started to swarm you.

    Most unfair and cheap enemies ever?

    Anyone here play Dark Messiah of Might and Magic? Those goddamn spiders were everywhere, they were insanely hard to kill, and their poison will fucking kill you if they so much as touch you. Unless you have an antidote potion, of course. Which is only one use and doesn't protect you from...

    The weirdest things people brag about

    In my opinion, knowing about popular stuff was never cool. It's inevitable that almost everyone will know the lyrics to the latest Lady Gaga song, or what the latest episode of Jersey Shore was about. On topic: Gamerscore. So you play videogames for bragging rights, I see? I play them for the...
