None. Every time I get hyped over a game it either turns out to be generally bad or it is completely not what I expected said game to be like. I usually just wait until it's had a fair amount of time to get reviewed and discussed before I get excited.

Sorry about that whole "enslave the natives in South and Central America" thing guys. I guess us Spanish are really fond of gold and money. As for my Mexican half, err... Sorry America for, uhh... tekin' ur jebs?

I guess you didn't read my slideshow rant there. You know, movies run at 30 FPS (a hair under actually). How's that for a nice slideshow boyo?

Yeah, consoles are running on dated hardware, and yes, any computer built after 2009 outperforms them, but the games aren't "shit". Graphics, framerate, control, functionality, whatever you want to talk about, is not shit on consoles. Would you call a NES shit? How about a PS2? So why call...

Have you even played a game at 30 FPS? Or are you just assuming it's unplayable because 60 FPS feels so good? There's a nice video here that shows you how it plays at that "oh so unplayable" 30 FPS. And please stop referring to the game a slideshow. The analogy is so idiotic. Not you too...

Come on, how bad is GFWL really? I think everyone over exaggerates. I have an account and it is by no means "draconian". It's extremely easy. You load your game, sign in, and play. There, done. Just because it may not be a very graceful type DRM doesn't mean it's the worst thing to happen ever...

Also ignore the double post which totally didn't happen just now.

This. Everyone has different tastes and opinions which is why I really stray away from critics unless I share their tastes or they're really entertaining. You can't have a "one size fits all" review. For example, Minecraft was critically acclaimed by tons of people, yet some hate it. But...

NOOO! I must be able to play this game on 5 monitors at a time with 15000 FPS at ALL TIMES! I can't play this game like a CONSOLE gamer. Heavens no! These are plebeian problems that a PC using GOD such as myself should NEVER have to encounter! That is seriously what all these people...

Here you go guys. Most of your questions answered. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGg6m7CEluE

My instincts are to scream "RULES 1 AND 2 NEWFIENDS!" but, because this a good discussion, I'll hold my tongue. /b/ is occasionally good, but it's pretty cancerous. /x/ is always a good choice if you don't want to sleep, but it's too slow most of the time.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.'s bugs aren't actually THAT bad, even if you can find any. Dead Space isn't actually scary, just startling. Most JRP's are INCREDIBLY BORING.

Take every UN representative hostage and threaten to open a cardboard box labeled "anthrax".

Definitely FLCL. I've only seen about 4 or 5 other shows, and I thought this was pretty weird. But damn was it awesome. Cowboy Bebop can be weird at some points (especially with Ed and Ein), but it's more cool and stylish than weird. Just throwing that out there.

Morality systems have the possibility to make a game extremely deep and immersing, but only when done right. Bioshock had a good idea, but making the same choice over and over again just became a chore, rather than making you think about the consequences. Mass Effect handled their...
