    First image of Elizabeth Banks as Rita Repulsa

    Simplify it further then. (And get way abstract in the process...) Fruit The difference is between... (1)putting a Golden Delicious apple in place of a Classic Red apple, or (2)putting a Mandarin orange in place of the Classic Red apple. Sure, both the apple and the orange are...

    First image of Elizabeth Banks as Rita Repulsa

    The problem comes in that in almost all cases, there are Iconic parts to the character design that are just...part of the character. Batman always has a utility belt of some kind, with a dark, bat themed outfit. (granted, these are huge generalizations) The X-men all have their little bits...

    First image of Elizabeth Banks as Rita Repulsa

    If someone showed me that picture and told me it was Scorpina (Not a Rita/Scorpina hybrid, just the one by herself) I wouldn't bat an eye at this. It'd be an "Oh, that's awesome. Looks great!" But that's supposed to be Rita Repulsa? ...and looks nothing like her? I'm not saying they...

    Zero Punctuation: Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water

    This is an "At least, as far as I know". It's "Project Zero" Because the Japanese word for zero, "Rei" is also the word for "Spirit" IE: Ghosts. Something I'm pretty solid on though, is the Camera mechanic. It's not the flash that is damaging. The "damaging ghosts" mechanic is based off of...

    FF 7 remake

    I dunno, The more I listen to the narrator in the Trailer, and the way he talks about "The Reunion" and "The Promise" it makes me think more and more that I'm listening to one of the Jenova cultists. You know, the 'failed' Sephiroth clones that you find all over the game in black cloaks, on...

    Study Finds Games Are Not a Trigger For At-Risk Youth

    That's just bad Gun Safety on top of that. Who the F*** just leaves a handgun where an 8 YEAR OLD can get a hold of it. Forget the Game angle. Kids play with NERF GUNS. 8 Year Old finds handgun "Ooh, new nerf gun! Hey Grandma! *BANG*"

    Bad Games That Should See Sequels

    I don't know if I can think of any games like that. I'm more of the opinion that there are game companies that did REALLY GOOD games that then tanked. Like CLOVER. WTH Capcom?

    Greatest Voicework in a Game, EVER!

    Seconded on Kain vote. Especially after hearing him in DS3. I was like, "Wait, the cultists are being led by KAIN?! I'm Boned."

    Poll: Marvel Characters in Kingdom Hearts?

    I would also like to put foward the reminder that this upcoming Kingdom Hearts 3D is NOT KHIII. This came straight from Nomura himself, IIRC. the 3 in the title refers to the subtitle being an alliteration of 3 "D" words. The actual title is Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance So...

    Poll: Marvel Characters in Kingdom Hearts?

    It's all about Pattern Recognition. All of the characters so far(Barring the OCs to the universe: IE Sora, Kairi, Riku, Ansem, ETC.) have been either established Disney characters or established Squaresoft characters. Leaving the Squaresoft angle aside, the Disney characters are all...

    MW3 people vs MMO people (WoW people)

    1: Didn't stop the MW/Halo/Battlefield people from doing it to the MMO crowd first. (Warning: Incoming Sarcasm) Because obviously we (Speaking as a Casual WoW Player) are all people who spend their entire lives in front of a computer, with no life, playing WoW 24/7 and neglecting things like...

    MW3 people vs MMO people (WoW people)

    WTH people. 5 times now, I have seen GROWN MEN digging frantically THROUGH GARBAGE. "Why?" you might ask? Why, because there might be a mountain dew bottle with a cap still on it in there, of course! Why are these caps so valuable that GROWN MEN will dig through GARBAGE over them...

    You first "**** This" Moment in Gaming

    There's a Mod for the PC version of KotOR that lets you begin the game as a Jedi Class. It makes Taris a LOT more reasonable, still annoying to get through, but not as much. My first I can remember right now was Halo 3 multiplayer. I didn't get out of Boot Camp mode. When Every Single...

    Favourite Game Sequence

    I remember first starting out in WoW, back in Vanilla, Only went to lvl 60 times, everything had been pretty much standard fantasy fare for starting out as a Night Elf. Then in Darkshore, I came over a rise and came face to eyehole with a massive, alien skull. That's burned in there pretty good...

    Bethesda Doesn't Enjoy Being "Forced" into Mojang Lawsuit

    I have played both Morrowind and Oblivion, read up on (but unfortunately not played) arena and daggerfall, and I had no idea that Elder scrolls was even part of the name until someone told me so after playing Oblivion for a while. You ask me, this is way too much effort to protect a brand...
