Executive Producer Patrick Bach is talking out his a**. The reason the reception to free DLC versus Vietnam differed was due to the issues outlined by Lillowh above. Gripes about the "free" DLC had more to do with them advertising "Hey look! Call of Duty charges you for maps, but we're giving...

Not even remotely. If Bioshock and Gears of War are the best points of reference you (or whoever was describing it) have for the types of gameplay in HR, then you're in for a treat.

I can't be 100% empirical about this, but: I don't think it is a problem for there to be sequels, as there's no reason to abandon a successful property and hold up "different" as the same as "good". But, at the same time, there has to be room for new and different alongside refinement of the...

I would be more sad if it hadn't been the direction everything had been going in for the last 3 years. You're certainly not the same girl I fell in love with, and I know... I know I'm still not a profitable demographic. But, we had some good times, didn't we? I guess... I guess I'm okay with...

Well hello there! Thanks for stopping by. I'm assuming you've noticed the fancy new Facebook comments at the bottom of content as of late. Personally, my first feelings were rage, and hate (because that is what I do, I hate), but then I found peace of mind. Profile > "Profile and Options"...

This is a terrible sentiment. My comedians don't need to be good at what they do? Movies shouldn't be quality? The things that I buy with my money to entertain me shouldn't live up to their sales pitch? Just because things are for "fun", that's no reason that people shouldn't be allowed to...

No love for Supernatural?

Obviously, I agree entirely with this article. Emotional fans are just different than intellectual fans, and obsessive fans, etc. Just as long as we all like it for the same reasons, it doesn't matter to which part of our psyche those reasons appeal. But, I'm sure we can all agree that...

I was going to post in order to defend RPS and Walker, given that my interpretation of the original article was one of no wrong-doing whatsoever: as stated, the images were cropped down to make them more teaser-like (as opposed to trying to obscure their source, which is pointless, since they...

This. I was going to say that if you enjoyed Studio 60, and you hadn't seen Sports Night (also brilliant, and also cancelled before its time), then you have to check it out. If I recall correctly, they cancelled Freaks and Geeks and Sports Night right around the same time, and I gave up on...

Well then, I guess it's a good thing companies can't patent their business processes, right guys? Oh wait...

I could never have told you the title, but I watched The Worst Witch enough times to immediately recognize the references. I have fond memories, but I'm not entirely sure they would hold up if I watched it again. Now if only someone could tell me the name of the animated dealie with the...

Saw this: http://borderhouseblog.com/?p=2855 courtesy of http://www.critical-distance.com/2010/09/19/september-19th/ a little over a month ago. Minus the angst-i-ness, it pretty much sums up my thoughts on the matter. He may be being dishonest about his reasons (looking for excuses to...

Barring seeing some actual evidence that products bought on D2D versus GFWL versus Steam don't play nice with each other on the PC, I'm going to have to say that this article is a giant journalistic fail. "Someone said something interesting and potentially inflammatory! Let's report it...

Way back in the day, pre-Xbox but post-RTS, (disclaimer: this is all based off of my memory from reading an article in a magazine previewing what the studio was up to) Halo was going to be a persistent world, with terrain deformation from weapons, and full warfare (ground and air vehicles...
