You missed the resurrection moment in Bioshock. *Spoilers* It wasn't the character but the player that needed to change and that was supposed to come during the final escort quest. At this point the Little Sisters were no longer invulnerable but they also had nothing to offer. If a Little...

What about the Wedding March? If you are hearing it either you or a friend is getting married, this sad fate is worthy of a tear or two.

Another vote for infamous and to add to the list, Wipeout HD + Fury. Great futuristic racing game with excellent visuals for a great price.

I have long been a used game buyer and the recent backlash is actually getting to me. With Steam sales and ebay I now have a pile of shame too big to ever complete. So I am considering going all new in my purchases. The one question I have, is the one I ask all former and current pirates, do...

Why is there no discussion of sides and motives here? Most of the laws addressed in this treaty already exist in some form but despite a few high profile moves by aggrieved companies and law enforcement most people get away with it. So in the battle between those who profit from legitimate...

If you want strange try Chinese opera. The real thing, not a band. No tone or structure recognizable as music to westerners.

I have a child with Downs. I made this decision nine years ago. He is happy and makes my life harder but more interesting. He is not now, nor will he ever be, of normal intelligence. After reading through this I prefer him to most of of the posters on this forum.

Fluffing pom-poms while waiting for an oil change.

This trick of dividing the game into 3 parts has been done before with terrible results. Shining Force III was divided into three parts, one for each faction. Only one was released in the US because of low sales numbers. At the end of that the general feeling was that the games were good as...

Idiocracy, the subject, the humor, President Not Sure. This is a movie that came and went with no fanfare but will eventually be a classic.

It matters who you are planning to sue. If this or anything like it was a known side effect and you accepted that risk, you have no case. If this is unique to you and you can prove causation, not just correlation, and it is not listed as a possible side effect then you may be able to win...

I believe in the system seller idea: Sega Genesis: Mortal Kombat II Sony Playstation: Crash Bandicoot Gameboy and Gameboy color: Pokemon Sega Dreamcast: House of the Dead 2 Playstation 2: SSX Wii: Wii Sports Xbox 360: Oblivion PSP: God of War Chains of Olympus Asystem seller is...

Exposure may be a problem but high quality, low price is a good formula for success. If small developers are complaining that they can't compete on quality and price, well that's just business. Make good games at good prices and you will do fine.

If you ask a bartender for a drink and you drink it then die as a result of alcohol poisoning did the bartender kill you? The doctor was not acting as a doctor, he wasn't treating any medical problem, he was just using his access to drugs to allow MJ access to drugs. He did something wrong but...

Southern Utah, Arches National Park, Canyonlands, Lake Powell, Goblin Valley, Capital Reef, and the San Rafael Swell. These were the inspiration for the Spaceman Spiff comics in Calvin and Hobbes. If you can take out a PWC on Lake Powell you can find slot canyons and drive in caves, cliffs for...
