    No, Inafune Did Not Say "It's Better Than Nothing" - UPDATE

    Shhhhh, stop being so reasonable, clearly we should all overreact and overblow another tiny little (potentially completely imagined) infraction committed by this game dev. The development of this game hasn't been a big enough shit-show yet, we gotta get those last few negative news posts...

    FEAR and Spec Ops: The Line scribe will write plot Resident Evil 7

    I don't mean to be the odd duck of the thread, but is resident evil really the place for good writing? Don't get me wrong, I love the series, from it's camp b-movie, zombie mansion origin, to it's ironic-camp, midget-napoleon fighting, series rejig, right up to the recent games like 6, that most...

    Is Half life 3 (or EP3) is only Vaporware That will never release?

    There's something very pleasing about this statement coming from someone with a nun as their avatar. OT: I used to be a super big half-life fan, I played the original as a 9 year-old when it came out, and it blew my tiny mind. Played the sequel and episodes, various mods etc. Always loved...

    Anyone been playing Resident Evil 6 PS4/XBO?

    I can see how the J'avo would be a point of contention, if they're wielding guns and driving tanks and the like, it may seem like you may as well be playing Gears of War, rather than a Resi game. But I'll judge that for myself tonight, when I delve into Chris' campaign. Can't say I noticed...

    Anyone been playing Resident Evil 6 PS4/XBO?

    I picked up the version for the PS4, and honestly, I absolutely love the damned thing. I didn't play it when it came out, so this is my first experience with the game, but I've just finished Leon's campaign, and I'm sitting here with a massive smile on my face. I can certainly see why...

    Explaining yourself on Valentine's Day....

    Dammit, until the last line I was about to leap in and be all, nuh-uh, someone does care enough to comment all the time, it's my nan, and god's love her and all that, but it's very tedious. Anyway, I think the only real person judging the OP's singality is the OP himself, to which I say. NOT...

    What are great games that are flawed masterpiece?

    Well, most people here seem to be talking about genuine classics of the gaming sphere, but my flawed gem of a game is my favourite game ever, and also one of the most flawed. Deadly Premonition! A gem so flawed a lot of people may misinterpret it as a lump of coal, but crack it open and climb...

    What do you think about "it"?

    Damn, that's not a bad shout. Just rock up to a friend's baby shower wearing a black hooded robe, lean over to her and ask in my most sinister voice

    What do you think about "it"?

    Damn, forget 'it', I'm totally gonna start using the phrase 'the unborn' to describe pregnant people's unborn babies. 'It' may imply the disrespect of being an inanimate persona-less object, but 'the unborn' sounds like they're about to birth some kind of lovecraftian horror. Now that's cool...

    Zero Punctuation: Top 5 Games of 2015

    That's kinda HungryFreak's point though. To really hit people's top spot you have to appeal to their specific interests, interests which may not be shared by everyone. Whereas something that everybody loves will be 'less' people's absolute favourite, as in going for mass appeal, it doesn't...

    Return Of Kings celebrate 'making The Force Awakens lose $4.2 mil'

    Well, to ignore the general gender politics debate surrounding the topic (which is often a wise thing to ignore on the internet), the guy's method is woefully unscientific, and treating his number with any kind of respect for truth is just wrong. It's already been pointed out, but for people...

    Poll: End of Year Awards (It's Different Trust Meeeeee...)

    Well, on the bright side, I bought Dragon Age: Inquisition a few months ago and didn't have many egregious bugs with it, so, this Christmas may be dicey, but there's always next year! And on to my awards!

    Sequels and the Death of Novelty

    And to add to this absolute case in point, Bioshock 2: a game that followed directly from Bioshock 1, included the same familiar elements (Splicers, adam, Big Daddies, Little Sisters etc), and, in the courts of both public and critical opinion, suffered massively for it. Yet the same brand name...

    Indivisible - A Question & A Idea I have

    I'd imagine the restriction is mostly just a disclaimer/failsafe veto right. I'm sure that even if a design didn't quite fit, they'd work with the backer to make an acceptable edit, compromise to work it in. But, if you have no restrictions, you just know some prat is gonna drop $1000 and demand...

    Criminally Underrated First Person Shooters?

    For a not overly well known shooter I love: Shadow Warrior (PS4, PC, Xbox One). It's a reboot of the 90's shooter of the same name. It's a reboot that keeps it old school however, fast pace, lots of enemies, health kits, secrets, the whole shebang in a modern package that doesn't feel dated...
