    The Shrouded Isle is a Cult Village Simulator

    This sums up exactly what I'm hoping for.

    Fallout 4's Script Is Bigger Than Skyrim And Fallout 3 Combined

    I hope 50% of this dialog is for Deathclaws:-D

    Final Fantasy VII Remake Will Include "Dramatic" Changes

    Materia were too specialized IMO. Did we really need 3 Bahamut summons? A Bajillion elemental magics? Making Materia into Jobs would be a good streamline. Have Cloud start with Fighter materia, Tifa with Monk, Yuffie start with a Thief materia, etc. and have them unlock class abilities as...

    Remake Retake

    IV was okay if you'd played FF4 before. III is hot garbage and broken as hell and sucked all the fun out of the NES version.

    Nintendo Land IRL? Nintendo-themed Rides Coming to Universal Studios

    Kirby's Air Ride seems like an obvious choice.

    SOMA Reveals a Shocking Secret

    Got a feeling there's gonna be an oxygen mechanic of some kind just to make people freak the hell out when they're running out. I mean we've got an of people that panic over this in a cartoony game, let alone an underwater hellscape: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTicU8jklyI

    Game of Thrones: Who is the real villain?

    It's not really a retcon, the whole thing at the end of A Storm of Swords where SPOILERS FOR SHOW-WATCHERS messed her up in the head pretty bad, and directly leads to her making a series of increasingly poor decisions (which I found pretty entertaining personally). As for "main...

    Games you feel have too much padding

    Skyward Sword basically redefined padding for a new generation. I was fine with the extra sailing/exploring in Wind Waker but Skyward Sword was just egregiously over the top about it and worse, BORING.

    Poll: Best game Rareware ever made.

    Donkey Kong Country 2 is their best game. Many of these games were good, but DKC2 was PERFECT. The difficulty curve, enemy placement, music, precision platforming, SPEED, all perfect. e: Goldeneye/Perfect Dark haven't aged well at all :(

    I don't understand Spock/Vulcans as depicted

    Like another said, the telepathy thing is the issue here. It's not just that they're emotional, it's that they're able to project those emotions onto others, against their will. Look at the mind meld Spock does in The Undiscovered Country, it's an awful thing. Now imagine an entire planet of...

    Most horrifying fictional apocalypse.

    Gotta be Nier. Talk about humanity going out with a whimper: Endgame stuff And the worst part is you're able to do all this because of the power of friendship...

    Do you agree with this top 50 - from two decades ago?

    How is Star Control 2 only #33?! That should be in the top 10 for sure. D/Generation owned, but it's in the right spot.

    Zero Punctuation: The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct

    Looks like it's Organ Trail but not as fun, hmph.

    Games that know how to do boss fights

    Chrono Trigger. There are no "whack it till it dies" bosses, each boss has a puzzle to solve and a lesson to teach. Going in swinging without thought will get you killed in a hurry, especially against bosses like the Golem Twins. Plus, the music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqR7LtVLslc...
