    Should i play Mass Effect 3 or Metro:Last Light ?

    IMHO, ME3 was a chore to play. I loved the first two games but I didn't like ME3 from the beginning. The ending was just the straw that broke the camel's back for me. I won't go into depth here, but in reading the previous comments I felt compelled to count myself among the dissent from the...

    So, why do people like the Uncharted games so much?

    I enjoyed the first Uncharted. It was just a fun Indiana Jones-esque adventure. The second Uncharted was just more of the same, except the novelty had worn off. I didn't play the third. I agree. They're pretty good games but they don't really deserve the ridiculous praise they get.

    Nope, it was a different admiral. Tyler Perry played a character named Admiral Richard Barnett in the 2009 movie.

    Escape to the Movies: Star Trek: Into Darkness

    I'm pretty excited for the new Star Wars movies, to be honest. Abrams's Star Trek movies are, in a lot of ways, more like Star Wars anyway. He has shown that he knows how to make a coherent, visually driven film with good performances from his actors. This time he'll be working with an...

    Escape to the Movies: Star Trek: Into Darkness

    This is not true at all. The people that are complaining most about this movie seem to be die hard Star Trek fans. The fact that it doesn't "live up" to what Star Trek is supposed to be is what is holding this movie back in their eyes. If it hadn't been affiliated with Star Trek, I bet these...

    Poll: Favourite Total War game.`

    No, it wasn't. M2's city deployment was far more restrictive and annoying than Rome's. There were a few oddities in Rome's siege pathfinding, but it all worked fairly well.

    Poll: Favourite Total War game.`

    Rome. Medieval 2 was good, but I remember the siege deployment and pathfinding being broken. Rome also had the best faction/unit variety and imo the best music. I like the religion dynamic that Medieval 2 added, but otherwise I can't say I enjoy the grand campaign in M2 as much as I did in Rome.

    Bad games that got GOOD reviews

    The Call of Duty games haven't been the same since CoD4 (which I loved). The most recent iteration was by far the worst in terms of single player, IMO. I never played multiplayer in Black Ops but the SP was just abysmal. I liked Uncharted and was underwhelmed by Uncharted 2. It wasn't bad but...

    Bad games that got GOOD reviews

    Um... It has a main character that encounters a conflict and through a series of events reaches a climax. Isn't that the definition of plot?

    Escape to the Movies: Cowboys and Aliens

    This movie isn't as bad as Bob makes it sound. It's honestly just as good as Captain America. The acting is good, the premise is original and fun, and the action is awesome. Sure it has its flaws, but it does a lot right and it makes for a good time.

    Characters you hate with an unbridled, illogical passion

    He is the bad guy you know. You're supposed to hate him. Conrad Verner is similar; he's intentionally an annoying character. I really hate the secret apprentice from the Force Unleashed. Seriously, every original character in that game is garbage.
