    Miracle of Sound: Dream of the Sky (BioShock: Infinite)

    I've replayed the Southern/Irish interlude about fifty times during this afternoon. Such power to the movement. :']

    What's your favorite main menu screen?

    How could I forget Metroid Prime: I jumped right on this game the moment I saw the thread title, but you beat me to it. Rats! The original Metroid Prime still clocks in as one of my best games of all-time, and as such, I played it a lot. Consequently, I created this little mythos to...

    Gabe Newell Acknowledges Frustrations With Half-Life 3

    Alright, even though I would do quite a few things I wouldn't be proud of later in order to play Episode 3/HL3, and even though every fiber of my being is screaming at me not to type this, I'm on Gabe's side. Step back for a second. Remember Modern Warfare? It came out of (arguably)...

    Music to relax/zone out to

    I've always found the Halo soundtrack to be good zoning-out material: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rn9QOrRwFg Also, this. Just trust me, please. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0wAbV6boLY

    Playstation 1 classics

    That's why I liked it so much! It didn't try to reinvent the Extended Universe, it grew around it. Also, as a young boy, I may or may not have enjoyed the Tia and Ghia bad ending. ;]

    Playstation 1 classics

    Addendum Crash Bash? Crash Bash? That game has made me hate party games to this day. So many bad memories. :'[

    Playstation 1 classics

    No one seems to be mentioning the first Spyro. Was it that bad? I didn't think so, especially when you had (IMO, the best incarnation of) a Stewart Copeland soundtrack! Seriously, look those OSTs up! But I digress. My list: Spyro 1, 2, and 3. Crash 1 (Don't look at me like that...

    Black Ops Sequel?

    I never honestly expected Soap to make an appearance in this hypothetical mission. I'm just aware that Price was involved in a mission with Captain MacMillan in approximately 1996, so there's no reason that he could not have also been involved in one in 1978; granted, he mentions that he was...

    Black Ops Sequel?

    That is exactly the website I'm referring to! Yes, the URL may be simple to remember, but I could not find it for the life of me. :(

    Black Ops Sequel?

    I frequented the same, or similar, website, actually! Maybe it's rubbing off on me...

    Black Ops Sequel?

    Fellow Escapists, Before I get any farther into this post, I'd like to lay down a nice, hefty SPOILER ALERT. If you're one of the people who play Call of Duty games for the story, you might not want to read any farther, lest you lose any surprise in what you haven't already completed...

    Escape to the Movies: Red

    I have to agree with some of our previous posters: "Ninjas. Damn." is probably the worst nominee for "Best Line of 2010". Sorry MovieBob. Also, ever since I saw the trailers for Red, I can't shake the notion that this movie is what The Expendables would have been if it had embraced its...

    The Sniper Principle

    This comment comes from a MW2 sniper, who feels he needs to rant about other snipers. As a sniper, I firmly believe 3 things: 1) One shot, one kill. 2) No camping. 3) NO M*********ING THERMAL SCOPES. Alluding to my first rule, I run Stopping Power as my Tier 2 Perk. Consequently, I...

    Super Mario Galaxy 2

    When considering what game I would hand to a first-time player to say "This is what'll get you started", I had to think back to when I first started playing video games. My answer, in that case, is the original Crash Bandicoot games or the original (Read: Insomniac-produced), Spyro: The Dragon...
