Well there has been nothing stopping developers from putting players against Americans in multiplayer (see COD, Battlefield.) However, for a campaign mode well that's not the easiest sell to make. Sure, a game that has you play as a german soldier in WWII experiencing the defeat of hitler from...

The metal cap because of the kick-ass music that went along with it.

Section 8 probably stands out as something that would have greatly benefited from split screen. Even though it's online community never really took off the great bot-based multiplayer would have worked incredibly well in a living-room scenario.

I got lost in the graveyard and never found a way to finish it... Still, amazing game.

Halo 3, Sins of a Solar Empire, Oblivion, Mass Effect 2, and Fable 2 in recent memory. Before that, Pokemon Silver, Starcraft, and Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knights.

As over the top as that game was I actually felt something when Dom was forced to kill his own wife in GOW 2. Apart from that I haven't really felt any strong emotions from gaming apart from rage, laughter, and satisfaction followed by rage. Games have yet to make the most out of tragedy...

I explored some ruins, ran around in a few caves, and then went and joined the mages guild. Nothing too exciting there, at least not until I broke the game with spell creation.

Septera Core It was made back in the fleeting age when games were actually creative. IE. They didn't just rip off Tolken, Saving Private Ryan, and Aliens.

So the "I know you are but what am I" defense? :)

1. It is true. Reach will be THEIR last Halo game. 2. They will go off on some other equally mediocre direction powered by the blind faith of fanboys clinging to the successes of the past in hopes that their delusions will recreate the accidental wonder of that past. 3. Not I, at...

Deus Ex: Invisable War It was the first game to sell me on both a fictional universe and the plot contained therein while still delivering solid gameplay and some measure of player involvement with the character through a decent amount of meaningful customization. Oblivion, Fable, Fallout...

1. The pre-E3 Deus Ex trailer was the only thing worth mentioning so far. Nintendo, Sony, and even microsoft with their shiny new toys failed to suprise me. I could have probably predicted, hindsight not-with-standing, the big announcements even from as far back as last year's E3 (if you can...

The winner of E3 is the same company who won the Chicago Auto Show, or any trade convention... No one. These are industry events designed to unveil and demonstrate new products and services. It is not a competition, in so far as a winner and a looser are concerned, because the ultimate...

Anything that gives positive feedback (including pleasure in gaming) can be compared to "snorting crack." The same neurological mechanisms are at work, and the same problems can arise if one becomes addicted to the stimulation they receive from the activity. Food, sex, drugs, speed...

Most everything you can name. I'm fond of mass effect and fable but there aren't too many fanboys to offend there compared to the giants of Halo, COD, MGS, WOW, Mario, and Zelda which I absolutely detest as some of the prime reasons that gaming has become a sewer of corporate exploitation...
