Fish's attitude and lack of social graces were my main reason for holding off on purchasing Fez, in spite of the praise it had gotten. This outburst has changed my views very little, and only in the downward direction.

And in one shot they killed any fledgling interest I had in the title. Maybe if they spent the money they wasted on that giant statue at E3 on single-player, we wouldn't be here. But here we are. No worries for me. Destiny looks much better anyway.

So, let me get this straight. Nintendo is having an issue getting the WiiU market penetration. They have basically till Nov to right the ship, before the new consoles come out and their system takes a distant third in the new-console race. And they've chosen to spend this time... making sure...

What saddens me in this whole affair is... well, you know how EA markets the hell out of their games, right? I mean, to the point some games probably have more marketing budget then actual game-creation budget. This was what they came up with. People were paid and money was set aside for...

To forget the purpose of a game is to be played is to forget what will make the difference between your company still being award-winning in ten years, and being an obscure trivia answer. Crytek should do well to remember that 'amazing graphics' is markedly subjective and entirely based around...

The more we hear, the more I feel comfortable in pre-emptively giving the award for this generation to Sony. Good job coming in first in a race between the BigBrother-Box and a home console whose software sales lag behind the freaking PSP Vita. I'm sure you feel, um, proud. No, that's not the...

Spent the day considering this, reading opinions around the net, and watching it spread virally like an outbreak of the T-Virus during holiday travel times. And I just have to say the following: 1. Orth will be fired. Why? Because he caused a PR disaster; because he probably violated if...

Hell yeah Batroc! ...wow, given I adore the UFC, it says something about my sheer geekdom that THIS was my first thought when I saw the article.

Keep defending foolish decisions in the industry and trying to excuse them so it can be business as usual, damn the consumer, and you'll follow THQ's path into a shallow grave. For EA's sake, I hope they ignore voices like McGee's, buckle down, retool, and figure out ground-up how to fix both...

*sigh* This, right here, was where I knew we were headed the moment they announced Always-Connected. Which, as an aside, was the moment I decided not to buy. I'm not some torch-and-pitchfork hater of EA; I try to judge every title that hits shelves on its own merits, not the merits of the...

I love Kickstarter, and I love fans having a measure of say in what does or does not get made. When you rely directly on the people for funding, it forces you to think not about pushing out sales at all costs from Day 1; instead, you have to think about 'What would be appealing for people, how...

Have to say, after playing through Spec Ops: The Line relatively recently, I have to agree wholeheartedly with putting it in the top 5. I see a lot of people criticizing the WP scene, and I get why... but I think an element of the railroading with that (fair warning, incoming mega-spoilers...

Wait. All of the wait. You mean to tell me, after all this time, with all the money this game is said to have brought in, the best you could do was a stripped down one on one dueling mode with fewer features than the original Counterstrike? This crap wouldn't have been given a pass in...

Logic would dictate, given it is one THQ property that hasn't- to be vulgar myself briefly -shit the bed, the cost is going to be HIGH. No one is going to spend the money for the SR franchise only to sit on it, if only because they'll be desperate to recover cost. So your concern shouldn't be...

Cripes, people, are your really going to No Mutants Allowed all over this Fallout thread and miss the important bit? MORE THREE DOG! AWOOOOOOOO! ...okay, might have been overblown, but still! I loved Three Dog in F3, largely because he was an actual character with motivations and desires...
