    Poll: Worst 3D Sonic game

    I hated Heroes. Adventure 2 was my favorite, but I hated the machine levels. They're ridiculously impossible to score well in and take way too long to complete. The treasure hunting levels grew on me after learning the locations where they most frequently appear. The multiplayer was great too...

    Poll: What are you? "Hardcore" or "Casual" became old hat in 2006.

    I consider myself a dormant gamer. College doesn't leave much free time for gaming, not for me at least. But even if my schedule suddenly cleared up I doubt I'd play games 24/7.

    Gears of War: I Wouldn't Buy It

    Late post is late, but... Personally, I prefer Gears almost 1000x to Halo 3. Granted, I'm not really a big shooter or Halo fan, but I find that Gears is just a lot more fun and easier to play (for me at least, the design and function of Halo didn't do it for me). I like the more strategic...
