    Good Game Titles (By Which I mean the Title Itself, Not the Game)

    Several of my faves have been mentioned already. Hopefully these are still fresh: Sword of the Stars (it has a nice rhythm to it, and promises something epic) Painkiller (just sounds badass) Max Payne (same as above, plus it's memorable) Trauma Center: Under the Knife (immediately draws...

    If you could experience one game for the first time again, which would it be?

    It would be great to play Kingdom Hearts 1 and Final Fantasy X all over again, since those were two of the most emotional games I've ever played; I'm one of the (seemingly) rare people who actually like Tidus as a character, so his journey was one I could actually be invested in, along with his...

    The dumbest reason you didn't watch/play/read something.

    I could never, can never, and will never, be able to get into G. I. Joe. Why? Because there's no character NAMED Joe in the whole series!! For some reason, that irks the hell out of me. I can tell that no matter what episode or movie you plop me in front of, no matter how kickass the...

    What single scene MADE a movie for you?

    Probably the Matthew Patel fight in Scott Pilgrim vs The World. In particular, when Matt jumps in to punch Scott, but instead of comically failing to block and getting hit anyway, Scott actually successfully blocks it and slams Matthew in the face. That was THE moment when I KNEW I was in for a...

    Favorite Fictional Weapon(s)

    Yeah, the Auger was really cool. Another one from Resistance that I loved was the Revolver. Seriously, it's a pistol that shoots high-caliber bullets... that you can REMOTE DETONATE. If that isn't one of the coolest ideas for a handgun ever, I don't know what is. And it does such an awesome...

    Who did you most enjoy killing in a game?

    I'd have to say Officer Pulaski in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. The whole game, he's a flat-out asshole, but when I had to chase him down and kill him, his assholery goes up to 11 as he continually taunts CJ, and on top of that, he's incredibly slippery and has an absurdly high health count...

    DOS games that still totally hold up today.

    It might be my nostalgia talking, but... Jazz Jackrabbit. Yeah, it's essentially Sonic the Hedgehog with a gun, but in a good way. The gameplay is fun and enjoyable, the visuals are simply gorgeous (more pleasing to the eye than most AAA games nowadays), and the music - good heavens, the...

    Hnnnnrg...THE FEELS! (When was the last time you felt them?)

    The ending scene of Episode 3 of Sword Art Online got to me quite a bit. I'll never hear "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" the same way again. I should also mention the climax of the True Ending of 999: 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors. Won't spoil, but when you get to it, it really gets to you; I...

    Best Romance (story) in games?

    Seconded. I loved that romance. It was paced perfectly, and had just enough cute moments between the two that when they finally kissed, it felt believable. And the scene that followed was wonderful :) For another, I'll say Junpei and Akane from 999: 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors. Not only is it...

    Quotes that just stick with you

    "Everything that has a beginning has an end." - The Oracle in "The Matrix: Revolutions" Yeah, the rest of the movie is pretty dumb and disappointing, but somehow, this quote almost makes it worthwhile. It's been a source of comfort for me whenever times get tough; no matter how bad things...

    5 Pixar Movies That Make Guys Cry

    If I recall correctly, there was a moment in the closing credits that showed the spaceship sending out signals, quickly followed by more spaceships returning to Earth. It's not just the one ship left, that was just the first ship to find out that Earth was habitable again and actually return...

    What's a sequel that isn't made yet that you would like to see?

    Zero Escape 3. I want SO badly for that game to happen. 999: 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors set the stage for an amazing story, Virtue's Last Reward built heavily upon it, and now we need Zero Escape 3 to tie it all together and bring some closure to the series. The only reason it hasn't happened...

    Films That Scared The Hell Out Of You As A Kid (Non Horror).

    The scene in The Mask where Stanley puts the mask on for the first time. Holy FUCK was that scary; just the sight of what was supposed to be an inanimate object suddenly latching onto someone's face and covering their whole head, coupled with the dark lighting, the sickening dark green colour...

    Games and their soundtracks

    I absolutely love the soundtrack from 999: 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors. An amazing soundtrack from an amazing game. It's one of the things that hooked me from the get-go; specifically, this track from the very first puzzle room: And tracks like this from the higher tension moments...

    Good fanfictions?

    If you've seen much of Naruto, I recommend the "Legacy of the Rasengan" series by Tellemicus Sundance. The storyline itself doesn't diverge too much from canon, but it has easily the best action sequences I've ever seen in a fanfiction, and I don't say that lightly. And if you're so inclined...
