    Escapist News Network: Inside the Newsroom

    Definitely felt more natural and spontaneous, which makes for a lot of fun. But I can't imagine this being a permanent change. Also doesn't the IP for Oni belong to Take2 Interactive now?

    Poll: Are you buying Fallout: New Vegas?

    yes, i'm buying it. Also i think there's a lack of hype about it because most people seem to be aware that New Vegas is, more or less, just like Fallout 3 but with a lot of new stuff. So if Fallout 3 already has a healthy fan-base then I would assume that it wouldn't need much hype.

    Review: BioShock 2

    okey dokey :) If you recommend playing the first one first then i suppose it is worth the time and effort. Frankly, my main concern has been time, which hasn't been as abundant I would like it to be. My thinking had been that if i can get the whole (or most of) the Bioshock experience in the...

    Review: BioShock 2

    I think I would enjoy playing that sometime. But I missed out on the first one, unfortunately. Do you recommend playing through the first Bioshock before the sequel? Or do you think that would somewhat spoil the experience of Bioshock 2 for me?

    well she does looks very similar to cloud: But I think that's where the similarities end.

    Poll: Next Game for the Month

    They call the skill system something else but it sounds like it's pretty much the same thing: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/95870-Final-Fantasy-XIII-Ditches-Leveling-Up-for-Crystalium Also I have to say that I wasn't too impressed with where the story seemed to be going...

    Dunno if this helps you, but I hear FF13 has something similar to the sphere grid from FF10.

    Resident Evil Creator's Next Game is Vanquish

    It certainly seems like somebody listened to Yoichi Wada (CEO of Squeenix) when he said Japanese games should be more like their western counterparts. Guess we'll just have to wait and see if that's a good or a bad thing. Who knows? Maybe it will actually turn out to be a radical re-imagining of...

    StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty Will Contain Protoss "Mini-Campaign"

    eh...I think I'll wait until they come out with a three in one "battle chest" kind of thing. I loved the first starcraft, but after waiting so long for a sequel I'm afraid my interest in it has decreased significantly.

    Alt+Escape: Every Day the Same Dream

    well i beat it... i guess =/ I didn't really get the point of it. To be honest, I found myself less haunted and more bored.

    Meet the Box Art for Left 4 Dead 3 - Er, Heavy Rain

    why not make the game cover reversible with the EU version on the alternate side? why should I have to waste printer ink?

    The movie that was "so bad" that you couldn't watch them through

    maybe I'm at fault here, but I usually go to movies with the expectation of having an enjoyable experience. Watching children get abused and exploited for most of the first half was hard for me to watch. Drama is okay, but when characters are being tormented to the point where I decide to leave...
