Why haven't they implemented this portable-console connectivity prior? I can imagine so many awesome applications if my DS/3DS could be used WITH my Wii/WiiU... Please take this idea and go nuts already, Nintendo.

Really? AC1 and AC2? I played and finished the first one and thought it was the worst paced game built around the most shallow "stealth" game play I had experienced in a long while. Then I read so many glowing reviews of AC2 and decided to try it. It was only marginally better...

Thanks, Nintendo! I know Zelda was just so beautiful, but Splatoon was definitely a major standout for me this E3. In terms of totally new announcements, Bloodborne looked cool, No Man's Sky looked pretty cool too, but all the pretty graphics of E3 could not overshadow the FUN that oozed from...

Who cares?! Mario Kart 8 is out!!!

Get on those gamepad games please! I can barely think of any games I've played on WiiU recently where the gamepad is utilized in an "essential" manner. I really think this asymmetrical gaming thing has some legs, but it doesn't seem like any developers are running with it... lots of crawling and...

Awww, I love RE4. It is easily the most fun I had on GC as far as single player games go. Yes, it was cheesy and campy, but it just worked... it came together, it congealed into something flavorful, it was so refreshing, and I think still is. I agree that it was a bit of a departure from...

I feel like the addition of binary choices is just an easy way for developers to add content to the game and convince themselves that the game will warrant at least a second play-through. Maybe most morality systems are just there to convince developers themselves that they've put sufficient...

This is a great concept, strategic local co-op, asymmetrical game play, lots of room and depth for development... Why isn't Nintendo backing this?

Great, and I thought Dark Souls 2 was going to be the only must-play game for me this year...

I was not a overweight growing up, but after college, I noticed that I started to put on a lot more weight and growing a tire around the midsection became easier and easier as I got older, especially when I regularly consumed beer/wine/hard liquor. I went to work in Japan for a few years and...

Yes! Finally a developer who understands the incredible WTF that is paid DLC content. I hate paid DLC, it's the reason I don't buy games when they release anymore. Having to buy a game and then having the developer release "other parts" of the game separately with additional fees is such a...

Come on. I think you "nice guys" need to take some responsibility here. Nice guys don't get passed up for jerks IF they are interesting and engaging. I bet nice guys who are interesting get lots of attention from girls. You have to consider the possibility that the nice guys who are...

Both GTA on the DS and GTA4. I really was curious about the GTA games and wanted to get into them, but they are sooooo boring to play because half the game is commuting. Every time you save and quit, the next time you start, you're back at the safe house and you've got to go find a car and...

I hate games where the environment and the game play mechanics don't mesh well and the result is you can't quite tell where it's ok to stand or jump to, or when the "background" of the game is too similar to the game environment you have to interact with. That kind of poor design is just so...

EDF! EDF! EDF!
