    When was the last time your controller got sweaty?

    Do you see yourself playing video games at age 60?

    I don't think I will be. When I look at the years I've been gaming, I notice a gradual decline in the time I play them. I begin to lose interest in them quicker than I had in the past.

    Poll: How do you play FPS games?

    I love the sniper rifle so I will use that at any opportunity. Otherwise, I mostly run and gun. Sometimes I forget there's cover available. It makes for a more tense experience, particularly if there's a lot of enemies that need bullets in their bodies.

    Mega Man Blasts Into His Own MMORPG

    It does make you wonder why there's an obsession with MMOs these days when the success rate of them is seemingly quite small.

    I won't buy a game if.......

    It's made by a developer who has a track record of poor games. It's a music rhythm game. It's an RTS. It predominately promotes its multiplayer on the back cover.

    Did I overreact?

    It seems clear the guy was on the dodge, but whether or not trying to peddling a sound system presumably obtained illegally is a matter for the police is something that comes down to the individual. Personally, I wouldn't have called the police, but I'm not going to tell someone they...

    Any new games coming out that you want to play?

    Super Mario Galaxy 2 is pretty much the only game I'm looking forward to at the moment. Just under a month to go!

    Poll: Do Yahtzee's reviews impact your game buying decisions?

    Nope. There's no reviewers opinion who I trust enough to solely make a decision on what game to buy.
