Been in my head all day.

I figured I might as well do one: http://www.favslist.com/users/Sam-Levy/3952/lists/4 It makes me sad No One Lives Forever 2 has the same number of votes as Warhammer Space Marine. And that I'm the only vote for XIII.

I've played the Ratchet & Clank HD port. L2 and R2 are mapped to the back touchscreen, but since they're only used for strafing it's never a massive issue. The audio also occasionally glitches out so things like the music or the gunfire sounds cut out until you get in your ship and go somewhere...

I've preordered a total of one game. It was Arkham City, and even then it was only because HMV were giving out an Arkham t-shirt and the first issue of the accompanying graphic novel free if you did so. But preordering for a chunk of in-game content? That's something I can't get behind...

I work in a £1.99 charity shop (paid position, mind) which seems to rank me even lower than other retail shops in the public's eye Some problems specific to charity shops I don't think have been brought up yet: -People flipping out when they're told that we charge 2 whole pence for a carrier...

I guess one of the problems with a black or female doctor is that the show regularly time-travels back to the past, and, well... FEMALE DOCTOR: "I know what the problem is!" MEN OF 1500s LONDON "Shut up woman FEMALE DOCTOR "No, my sonic screwdriver ha..." MEN OF 1500s LONDON "A witch! Burn...

I've got: -Bioshock -Bully -Condemned -Dante's Inferno (No DLC) -LEGO Lord of the Rings -Resident Evil 4 HD -Silent Hill Homecoming -X-Men Destiny So a couple, but no really hard ones. I've wanted to go back to Alan Wake and 100% it, but have yet to muster up the energy to hunt the...

Single Player - Bioshock, Batman: Arkham Asylum or Alan Wake. Multi - Bioshock 2. I really liked how it gives players the chance to earn a decent chunk of XP without necessarily having to be amazing and kill everybody, and also how anyone can become the Big Daddy if they're in the right place...

I think the best games to start someone off on are fairly linear, have a good tutorial and a strong story (Stuff like Mario can be good, but I find a game with a good story hook keeps them playing). When I tried to get my gf into games I started with Alan Wake, which is nice and easy on the...

No One Lives Forever 2 - that one level where you have to sneak through the Indian HARM HQ without using any gadgets or weapons. Gets very annoying very quickly but at least it's a short level. Resident Evil 4 - That cable car bit before fighting Mendez without a rifle. Rock Band 2 - So...

I write reviews for a website (though it's hardly professional) and for me writing a bad review is a nice chance to let off steam after having to play through said bad game. While just resorting to name-calling isn't the right way to do it, if something about that game was flat-out terrible then...

They brought up Natural Born Killers, which came out an incredibly relevant 18 years ago.

So glorifying violence = porn Well, fuck, best stop remembering The Alamo, getting all teary-eyed over Custer's Last Stand and learning history in general, since they're all based around remembering horrible massacres/brutal wars! Let's not forget the horribly violent war images caused by the...

007: Agent Under Fire, Nightfire, Everything Or Nothing. I played the hell out of those games when I was younger and would love a full-on HD upgrade. Destray All Humans 1 + 2 would be good too.

I prefer letter grades to X/10 or X/100, since pretty much everyone who reads it is well aware that C = average. That said, one major issue I do have with the final scores is when, say, a game's campaign is awful but it has a really good, innovative multiplayer, the final score winds up being an...
