    The Not Quite Best Games of 2011

    Arkham City is a strange one for me too - I do think it's better than the first game, but I remember having more fun with Arkham Asylum, which doesn't really make sense to me. City just seems to be lacking that unquantifiable magic that Asylum had. Ah well, both are great games anyway and...

    Extra Punctuation: Why No Couples in Games?

    Was just about to write the same thing until I saw your post. The relationship between Shepard and Liara is brilliantly done and, in my opinion, superior to all the other relationship possibilities in ME2. The dialogue of a couple trying to pick up where they were years before is superb.

    You now have a Army of the last thing you killed in a videogame.

    Like a few others in this thread, the last thing I defeated was Galactus and his heralds in Marvel vs Capcom 3. I'm sure an army of things that eat planets for breakfast could come in handy...

    Amazing Spider-Man Trailer Has Lots of Peter Parker, Almost No Spidey

    Why can't more superhero movies follow Incredible Hulk's example and get the origin story out of the way in the title credits? Especially someone like Spider-Man, who is up there with Superman and Batman for the most well-known origin stories.

    306: Disney-Colored Death

    I thought Dragon Age 2 did this quite well in the quest 'All That Remains'.

    Extra Punctuation: Building Sequels Badly

    Darth Vader flying away safely in his modified TIE-fighter. Gordon revealing the Joker's calling card to Batman. Also, Yahtzee said sequel to a game. Try harder.

    Star Wars: TOR Designer Explains BioWare's Death Stance

    It could easily be that you wake up in the nearest clinic to wherever you 'died' fresh from recovering in a bacta tank (I think?) like you see Luke in near the beginning of Empire Strikes Back and you automatically have a small fee deducted for the treatment. That way you lose out a little...

    The greatest character theme music ever.

    Most memorable character theme from Mass Effect imho.

    Which Marvel Character Deserves a Game?

    A Deadpool game would be great - swords, guns, regenerating health that actually fits the character, never mind blowing away the fourth wall and having Deadpool insult the player for doing badly or cheering you for making him look good! Hell, could even add Agent X for double the fun as a co-op...

    Stealth

    I think that Arkham Asylum nicely ignored the triangle and kept to the square: Player attacking/enemies attacking happens repeatedly when the Joker tries to trap you. Player attacking/enemies not attacking happens during the stealth sections. Player not attacking/enemies attacking or...

    The Most Emotional Thing You've Witnessed in a Game

    For me, it was during Tali's loyalty mission:
