I love Shin Megami Tensei, and, if it counts, Nippon Ichi games. I like Earthbound a lot and a few other SNES era JRPGs (namely Final Fantasy VI and Chrono Trigger.) That is the extent of JRPGs I like.

Even if you could get on Xbox Live, you wouldn't be able to get your save games back. You would get your achievements but the actual saves are not stored on the Xbox Live servers.

Avatar really doesn't deserve to win any non-technical awards. Maybe Best Director but definitely not Best Picture. Beyond the shiny special effects is nothing special story, character or writing-wise. I didn't like Inglorious Basterds at all but I seem to be pretty alone in that.

It's a pretty close race between Planescape: Torment and Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines, it really depends on the day. Today, however, Planescape wins just by having fewer colons :p

4 -- Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (Xbox, 2003) 188 -- Planescape: Torment (PC, 1999) Game Informer has lost all credibility. I think they might be using the American numbering system for the Final Fantasy games, because there is no way in hell anyone would put in 2 and 3 and...

Disgaea. Grindy as hell but so much fun

It's just a system of if...then statements. A natural and easy way to customize AI, I don't think Bioware intended to just rip off the gambit system.

Planescape: Torment. Tons of well written dialog options and a three-dimensional alignment system is excellent for roleplay.

The Rookie since he doesn't show off Bungie's horrible writing by talking.

I am very excited for this game. I've spent the last few months devouring every bit of information I can find on it

While I haven't seen the regular DVD release anywhere (got mine off of Amazon when it was first released, dunno if they still have it) the Blu-Ray release seems to be in larger chains like Best Buy or Blockbuster.

I am quite a fan of this movie, as the avatar attests. All in all, a well written review.

Deus Ex or Deus Ex: Invisible War? Invisible War is, by all accounts, horrible. I didn't like the original Deus Ex, but you may, so give it a try.

Deus Ex just doesn't really do it for me. There are better shooters out there and better RPGs. I really don't care about hybrids.

Nice review, but you didn't even mention that Dreamfall is a sequel to The Longest Journey. It is normally good to mention something like that when talking about the background of a game.
