MS has you paying for a service. Sony has you paying for a similar service. Nintendo has you paying for that service again. The only difference is where they get you on it. MS charges you upfront and in the open. Sony has every customer pay a little more for product regardless of whether...

Yeti - yeti. Ninja - Ninja. Octopus - Octopi. Penis - Wangs. Ox - Oxen. Moose - Moosen. OK, so that last one is BS. Also, Die - Dice. Datum - Data.

The plaster splicers were rough... There was a basement in Fort Frolic that was all dark, with a few pillars and knee-deep water. At the far corner was a tonic or plasmid or something. I ran over to it and grabbed it. When I turned back, there were statues. The creepy thing is that I...

The full expression is "Hair of the dog that bit you." Means that if you spent all night drinking rum, rum the next morning will make you feel better. Please note though that there is no real "cure" for a hangover. All those people saying Gatorade and water are on the right track. Aspirin is...

The Darkness (360, PS3) has a couple of emotional scenes... but the achievements and trophies don't pop up during them. As for immersion breaking, one could always do something totally nuts like disable notifications...

I was all about the radio right up until I got my Zune. That day was the last day that I had to wait through 4 songs I hated and 20 minutes of commercials to hear 1 song I like. Once in a while, I still turn on Pandora, but I'm not at all sure that counts.

You are likely to be eaten by a Grue.

I'll share my dirty gaming-related secrets here... 1) I own Rumble Roses XX 2) I freakin hate Soul Caliber 3) I haven't beaten any of the Halo games on Solo Legendary That other stuff... I think I'll leave where Google doesn't dig it up so easily.

Arab, normally I'd agree, but tell me you didn't break into a dead run when no one was looking in the game. Desmond gets left all by his lonesome during every break. I'd have settled for a brisker walk.

Whoa! it's like Ubi said, "Just how many metagames do you think we can get someone to play?" Ace, they do finally let slip that Desmond is there because he and his parents and so on are all assassins. And they could have at least let you walk faster in the "prison." Its like they were...

People calling me fag is why I give xbox live my $50/year! When will they make bots that are able to do that?

I've gotta say, having achievements has made me a better gamer in a few respects. Those "asshat" points encourage me to break out of my habits and safe-zones. Running on zombie heads is sweet enough to be worth trying on its own, but there are plenty of things in other games that I had to...

There's alot of good names up already... I'd add John DiMaggio (Bender, Marcus Fenix, etcetera) and Mike Patton (specifically because the voice of The Darkness was both creepy and hilarious)
