There are a million jokes that I could be making right now, none of which are sensitive or appropriate. I guess I'll just go with, "why the hell would anyone trust a company named 'Foxconn'"? OT: That must suck. Really, companies need to stop using the term "internship" to mean "free...

Yes; after all, Pokemon Colosseum and Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness totally don't exist. Also, the Gen 4 games certainly didn't use a 3D engine mixed with sprites for all non-battle portions of the games, and the Gen 5 games most definitely didn't use fully 3D environments and a 3D battle engine...

As far as the multiplayer goes, I hated the CoDification of the game; the progression-based loadouts, the lackluster maps, the killstreak weapons and lack of weapon spawns. They also cut too many things or replaced them with watered down knockoffs - like the co-op thing replacing firefight, and...

Correction: you get a physical game box + manual and a download code, not a physical copy of the game itself. The $2.5 million stretch goal is for PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii U versions.

Well, back before it was confirmed that Kinect was a part of the standard hardware, I said to my friends "I will not buy the next version of the Xbox if Kinect is a part of the standard issue hardware." Now that I've heard about its other "features", I can say that the one good thing about the...

What, another song so soon after Distant Honor? Gavin, slow down - you'll strain something :) . I'm pretty sure it's mostly from the Forerunner Saga, because they certainly weren't drawing from the The Fall of Reach - Glasslands stuff. A little disappointing, but there you go. Edit...

Capcha: wicked witch "Toto, I don't think we want to be in Kansas anymore." OT: In sixth grade, they taught us cursive, and made us write everything in cursive. The instructors said that we would be required to use it for all assignments from junior high school onward. I was never...

I do know. Fuck that guy's irrational fear of caged animals. That section was much easier on the original GBA's d-pad. Still frustrating, yes, but manageable in a couple tries. If you want a really frustrating section in MMBN5, try fulfilling the requirements to fight (not beat; just be...

This video expresses so well why I won't touch the next Xbox with a 10-foot barge pole if Kinect is a part of the launch hardware; I am getting seriously sick of this "let's use it because we have it" mentality in the industry. Indeed, thank [redacted] for Jim.

From the experiences of both myself and a friend; both shooting with it, and getting shot with it; we both agree that it's a one-shot kill. I can't snipe for shit- a sniper headshot for me is very rare- but I always get a kill when I line the crosshairs of the binary rifle over any part of an...

I've played the campaign through, and a really only have a few complaints: - The length: It's about 6 1/2 hours long (on normal). I wouldn't have so much of an issue with this if the game didn't come on two discs, or if I hadn't recalled a prerelease statement that it would be longer than...

Oh, for the love of- why were most of the screenshots taken at night? These remind me of Amalur; which is fine by itself; but that cartoony artstyle needs two things to pop: color variation and good lighting. These have neither; it's monocolor slurry as far as the eye can see. If this is how...

I hate when a game pulls a protagonist death from it's ass for poignancy, to raise the stakes, or for a completely unnecessary self-sacrifice. For me to accept it, a character death needs to be well-timed, meaningful, fitting, and telegraphed subtly. Otherwise it's just "LOL, we killed the...

I just told my friend the old date...dammit, now I need to go correct myself. Although, it's really nice to see them release this early, considering the game itself was delayed two months.

Caldera (which can be reached by taking the Stilt Strider from Sayda Neen to Balmora, and then taking the Mages Guild teleporter to Caldera) has two things. The first is a full set of Master-level Alchemy gear at the top of the Mages Guild tower (accessable from the first floor). The second is...
