Hugely snobby. Sorry, internets. I watch Jon Blow lectures, I've written enough to fill a novel praising Dark Souls, I think Bethesda, Rockstar, and Valve are all "okay"... I actually don't hate CoD as much as some people. It's just thoroughly mediocre. Well, the multiplayer at least; single...

First, to your point about the incoherence of the investigation - I agree. The original explained everything much better, for what it's worth. Now, about the scene in question... I don't think the point was to show Lisbeth Solander in a particularly good light. She's generally violent...

Is this really something people criticize New Vegas for? I felt it was one of the improvements over Fallout 3 that the narrative had a little more structure. It's not like it's very linear, even at that point in the game. I mean, railroading? What do they call Final Fantasy, tightroping?

Absolutely. The gameplay looks really cool, the art style is fantastic, music is top tier, the world and characters look engaging, hell yes.

Fallout because TES is horribly designed. I had fun exploring Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim, but when it comes time to make progress in the game things turn to shit. First, the story is laughably generic fantasy. I don't even wanna hear about their supposedly brilliant fourth wall breaking...

Definitely interested. I haven't played a good stealth game in forever (didn't like DX:HR). As long as it doesn't put too much emphasis on action, I'll most likely pick it up. I'm really excited about Dishonored too, though. They might have to fight it out for my $60.

I saw these games on youtube a while back, and I didn't really get what was going on. Is it just a scrolling shooter the whole way through? I've never really gotten into a game like that. Played Ikaruga and R-Type a bit but I got tired of dying. I could see maybe if there was an engaging story...

Punishment II's harder.

Your best bet is probably The Sims. Everyone seems to love those games. Gotta agree with Super Mario Brothers, especially SMB3 and Super Mario World. If she just has a PC, there's always emulators.

I was playing through Ico recently. There's this one puzzle area where you have to swing on a rope over a chasm. The only problem is, tilting the control stick doesn't change your direction while swinging, and you're forced to swing at the wrong angle to make the jump. I spent probably an hour...

Toshiba, 32 inch. I forget the model #. It's a really nice TV for the price (~$350). I've had no issues with it so far. It's actually the first TV I've ever bought.

"Why does the game feel like a visual novel with some shooty bits?" Haha, hit the nail on the head there, bro. I enjoyed it for what it was, but honestly, don't expect the depth of The Witcher, or even KoTOR. It's a lot of time to spend on something you don't love. Also, I feel I should let...

I only played a handful, but yeah, VI is my jam. Chrono Trigger was better than all of them, though.

Not at all. I consider the fact that SSB was good something of a freak accident/miracle. And I actually liked some of those characters.

lol, what? when you read that, did you realize it made no sense? I'm not too concerned. I'm sure From and Namco will bring the expansion to the consoles. Why would they not? It would be like throwing money away.
