Ask anything game related. I'll relay back with an educated and perhaps humourous answer. (Bit of fun really. Waiting for my soup to finish in the microwave)

Do you feel that games should have a maximum limit on how many there can be in a franchise?

Should all game console develpoers merge into one console like this?

What is your favourite day to play games on?
The day will change from week to week to coincide with my University course, but like many gamers, probably have the scum and villany of the workplace to contend with, so Sunday would be an educated guess. And then that will often be a couple of matches on Tekken 6 online squeezed in between cooking Sunday lunch. Gotta love Yorkshire puddings.

Why isn't there a KotOR 3 yet?
Knights of the Old Republic (1+2) were popular games, and loved by many many loyal fans. In all fairness the answer is unclear, like the mind of a drunken Jedi. Sequel developer Obsidian have done Alpha Protocol recently, as well as Fallout New Vegas. It's still a possibility though.

Question 1 - Yes from a consumer point of view. Fans of a series can become as tired of countless sequels, whilst others love the continuation. A prime example of this would be Final Fantasy and it's nearly 60+ games that bear the title Final Fantasy. However it all lies in money and profit, and being part of the gaming industry I find that shallow. Creativity and unqiue thoughts should be put first rather than grabbing cash.

Question 2 - Not really. The Super Genentari was made to encorporate four systems and stands as an awesome piece of home engineering. However it's size presents a problem because it's creator Rich Daulz shows it dwarfing an original Xbox. A game console which had digital forms from various developers and systems would be better. Just dont expect Sony and Nintendo teaming up for a joint system yet. Like question 1, its all about money.

Why don't any consoles ship with a button marked "Kill"?
Your question is quizical. 'Kill' what? The player? The console? The industry? Nevermind, probably time and effort going into the 'kill' button would have many problems. I mean a bomb in a 360 may not present the best argument at a health and safety point of view.

I'd ship the entire stock of JB guitar Hero to North Korea. I hear Kim Jonh-Il is a fanof his music.

I guess they could map the "Kill" button to anything they wanted. Your "Kill" button could heal your team mates under the right circumstances.
It would just be awesome to have a button which said "kill" on it.

Why is Gothic series so unknown when its so awesome?
Public image. A game could be out there that is 100% perfect in every way, but without advertising it could never be found. Developer history can also be a factor, with Spellbound and Pirhannaa Bytes being very low key in the industry. I was going to put the question down as simply age with Gothic 1 being made in 2001. However there is a 4th game for planned for Auutmn this year. A new game to attract new customers, fans and players is what the series could ask for, as well it being on a home console.
