    The Third Batman Film in the Nolanverse *SPOILERS*

    I think Batgirl and Catwomen would be really bad unless Joss Whedon was doing the writing. Not many people understand how to make a strong female without making her act like a man. I think it is still open that Two-Face is alive so I bet he turns up in the next film but doubt he will be the...

    Review: Hellgate: London

    I loved the game when I played it at E3 (2006) and GDC. I am not sure what they did with that game. The one that shipped is broken beyond excuse. I am sure their finances dictated that they release the game before it is ready. It is sad, you never get another chance to impress people with so...

    Portal: Less is More

    I just realized that I cared more about my weighted companion cube than I did for Alex.

    Portal: Less is More

    Really good review Russ. Less is More is right. Instead of trying to make a game have some sort of X hours of game play they made one that was just fun. I to could not stop playing till I was done. It really was one of the best games I have ever played. Oh yea the ending song is on my Mp3 playlist.

    Scrabble Attacked for Lesbian Slang

    Lesbo is not offensive. Clicking on a link with that in the title usually leads to great joy. :)

    117: Those About to Frag

    Nice article. I have been covering these types of events since 2001 and have seen it really grow over the last 3 years. Not sure if the whole TV thing works out since they try to make changes that appeal to mainstream viewers that end up alienating the very gamers that make up the demographic...

    " Game Magazines Have Sucked for Forever ": GFW's Jeff Green on the Future of Print Media

    I was pretty worried when the whole GFW mag happened but it is pretty nice to see that they can still say things like Vista sucks, Live sucks. As a reader lets me know they are not just mouthpieces for MS. I read so much of my news online that I am hardly shocked by something I see in a print...

    Helter Skelter

    I group this into the same people who keep writing the scripts for the Spiderman movies. People want one simple act that turns someone into a killer. It is not that some people are just not right in the head, its what he saw on tv, drugs, his daughter is sick or the mircochip in his head went...

    It's OK to Advertise - If We Like You

    I think what Valve is doing in CS is a good example of good and bad ads. Take one of their maps like Office. If I see a Xerox copier or a Coke machine I know it fits and I do not mind that someone paid for that spot. Take a map like Dust and having a big ad for Intel in some desert landscape...

    Supreme Commander

    That is pretty shocking to hear. I have yet to hear my RTS friends complain about it. They all seem to love the game.

    86: Do Degrees Matter?

    I think in all things but very true in movie making and video games is that hard work and talent can over come anything else.

    "Last year, Major Leage Gaming showed seven hours of its 2006 Pro Circuit on NBC Universal's USA Network and the World Series of Video Games on the CBS College Sports Television Network. Expect similar announcements to come throughout 2007." The World Series of Video Games is a completely...
