It's a reboot or almost completely irrelevant to the original series. So yes, it may be confusing if you attempt to relate the original series to this version.

Noted. I've had a lot of grammar-fails this week.

I'll start... Platformers that have a locking screen that scrolls up during jumping puzzles. And if you fall, you die, even if there originally was a platform just a couple of spaces below that would save you from such a fall.

I'd personally wait until the holiday sales roll around, but if you're looking for instant gratification, Darksiders is a pretty great Zelda clone.

Escapist, Question 1: How often do you believe that payed reviews are handed out to the general public to either endorse a potentially flunking product or to help boost sells. Obviously, you'd be more interested in a game if it received a perfect score, so why wouldn't publishers slip a...

It seems like Blizzard knows that WoW is going to take a nose-dive soon.

No, but eliminating any competitors all together would mean for a drop in profits since Gamestop is a huge partner in the industry. Heck, even other businesses are following in their tracks at this point. If they want to solve this issues, publishers might want to think about moving onto the...

Possibly a week or two from now. I checked the per-release and saw that the game had too many flaws to count. It's currently riddled with countless gamebreaking bugs that must be resolved before the release. Because of this, I'm actually glad that they decided to hold back on it, reassuring...

[i] All platforming games ripped off of Super Mario World.[i/] With this in mind, any form of originality or uniqueness isn't absolutely necessary in the gaming industry, especially when developers are attempting to make an audience like something. It's absolutely foolish since nearly every...

Cliche, yes. Overused, no. Besides, Zombies are easy since it's the most simplistic form of conflict: A virus broke out that left an entire population mindless and mostly dead except for a handful of "survivors". See, that easy.

I'll start! - Minecraft and Mojang - Team Fortress 2 and Valve/Other source games - Stalker and GSC - Oblivion and Bethesda So, does anyone want to provide an explanation on why this is so? Purpose: I want to see what everyone has to say about this.

Pyro - Team Fortress 2 The Fury - Metal Gear Solid 3 Megatank - Advance Wars: Duel Strike Obvious reasoning really. I just drive around on my super-massive tank and reduce anything to cinders that approaches it, problem solved.

Yes, it's a little package of fun on it's own, but the real fun begins when you actually have a couple of couch-buddies to enjoy it with.

This decision is entirely up to the user. The whole reasoning behind Minecrafts original implementation of low-textured graphics was to create a retro-defined feel while maintaining a volume of simplicity; not to mention, it actually worked well since the blocks, after all, are just blocks as...

I don't get why publishers are acting like money-grubbing twits lately? Used game sales have been around since when I was playing my first SNES. As a matter of fact, I got most of my game copies through either kindness, trading, or even buying them from other friends. It's never significantly...
