Hey there, Just thought I would throw out a somewhat over-specific question: can anyone recommend any good (relatively) unscripted action games for me to buy? For an idea of what I would like, see Max Payne 3 or the Last of Us E3 demo- certainly there are scripted moments, but not in...

This looks more like the new trilogy than the original trilogy. Pass.

Pretty self-explanatory title: what are the most and least impressive things thus far? Most impressive for me would have to be the demos for "The Last of Us" and "Tomb Raider." Oh, and Assassin's Creed 3, though the naval battle looked kind of lame. Putting it lightly, all looked hella cool...

The endings aren't polarizing because everyone agrees that they suck.

So I know that this topic has been done to death, but how could the ending have been improved? I personally believe that the entire game up to the point with the magical space elevator was incredible- I had no problems with the deaths of Anderson and the Illusive Man, I thought that they were...

Ahh, good point. Thank you very much.

I absolutely loved this game... until the ending. I chose synthesis and my crew lived, but seriously, I would be fine with dying if there were a fucking EPILOGUE. I want to know that my decisions made a difference. Hell, I want to see the child I had with Ashley! Also, everyone's stuck on...

Anyone else ever felt this way? I was thinking about Resident Evil 4, and while it was brilliant, the soundtrack had all of the dramatic tension of a "Goosebumps" movie score. Seriously, listen to the music in this trailer which fits the atmosphere so well and then listen to the completely...

Woah, everyone back up, we have a gaming elitist here! Just in case we didn't here it from everyone else with two hands and a keyboard, MW3 sucks! Oh, and a contrarian as well? When half of the gaming world worships "Skyrim", I think that you have no place saying that it doesn't deserve GOTY.

Pretty simple subject- what gets nominated very little or not at all? Me, I'm seeing a disturbing lack of "Breaking Bad", "Drive", and "Dead Space 2".

So for the last few years the VGA's have been ridiculed for some absurd award decisions (Megan Fox for Best Female Performance? Really?) and nominations (like Nathan Fillion for Halo: Reach when he was there for all of five minutes). However, this year it looks like the nominations and...

icantfindatag is my gamertag. Was hoping to find someone with a mic... Add me if you want!

I suggest the Onion's AV Club. They gave Rage a C and Uncharted 3 also a C. They're pretty hype-proof, but not overly critical.

How I don't know what my PC can and can't run. Of course, there are cases where it just can't measure up (Amnesia) and I'm fine with that. Then there are times where it's too good to run something (Fallout 3) and that just doesn't make sense. I know that it's the fault of the devs, but I'd...

Penumbra, Far Cry 2, STALKER, and Metro 2033 are all on sale...
