I agree completely with PaulH. UaKM is the game that got me into the series, and in its day, it looked phenomenal. I'll admit, graphically, the game hasn't aged well, and the controls predate the industry having a solid grasp on how to handle 3D environments well (but, once you get used to them...

Only game I'm kinda sad to lose online multiplayer for is Tetris DS. But then, I haven't touched that in years, anyway. Heck, there aren't even any wifi networks around me that would support my DS.

Okay, I had to shut it off when that third guy came up. Tasteless and incredibly aggravating.

Just to throw in a title I haven't seen brought up yet: my favorite B-game is Rising Zan: The Samurai Gunman. It's essentially a straight-up B-movie in terms of premise -- ninjas have invaded the Old West! And it plays like a sort of proto-Devil May Cry. It has the handicap of having rather...

On the one hand, Fish is a jerk. A lot of the harshness he received, he brought on himself. He conducted himself in a manner that showed he thought he was God's gift to video games, while also showing him to be very naïve. He is a talented game designer, certainly, but he needed a figurative...

Performing the sidequests didn't feel at all out of character for Marston, because to me, Marston always seemed like a gigantic pushover. In the main story, he's always putting his own goals on hold to help someone else out; why wouldn't he do that for the random person he happened across while...

Point #2 misses the mark due to the harsh and binding terms of the private soldier's contract at, say, Blackwater. Violate any of it, and you and your descendants will know no joy for generations. That's barely even hyperbole, they seriously prosecute that hard. So it's not loyalty that keeps...

If I recall correctly, beyond just being the publisher the first time around, Nintendo was very involved in the development of the game, as well. Lots of things added and cut under their instruction. And, given the quality of Silicon Knights' later games, it seems reasonable to assume that...

I'm still really enjoying it, even after playing for about 8 years. Granted, I always played at a pretty casual pace, so maybe that's why I haven't burned out on it yet. But I'm still getting new friends into it, trying to build a small group to go take on everything I don't have the means to...

Bahaha, Homsar quote. Love it.

If I find a person attractive, I would consider dating them. I find feminine features attractive. Now, brutal honesty, I haven't seen that many MtoF transsexuals who didn't look a little mannish. Of course, I've seen born-females who look a little mannish, too. Not particularly attracted to...

I remember this commercial. That sort of in-brain gaming is what I've always wanted the experience to become, so that video did -- and still does -- get me totally hyped. Can't wait for 2079. Most of my body may have failed by then, but if I can have games in my head, it won't make a bit of...

To throw my two cents behind what's already been said, Costume Quest and Bastion are probably your best bets for new games, and Super Mario RPG, Chrono Trigger and Paper Mario for the Virtual Console. If you don't mind soft-modding his Wii (which is a quite simple task; hard to screw up, but...

Repeating what the above people have said: the end of this article is awfully dismissive, showing utter ignorance of the series being discussed. Granted, the majority of multimedia games of the era were horrible, but letting Night Trap inform your opinion of Tex Murphy is at best lazy, and at...

Another New Year's Eve baby here, but I love it! It's like the whole world celebrates my birthday! :D And if I don't feel like throwing my own party, I can find one to go to no problem.
