Personally I think they improved this year over the last few years: most notably because the typical games didn't win the awards, and shows that you can't win just off of name and past reputation alone (for once).

Samuel L Jackson was about as good as he could be I guess. I liked the Walking Dead segment just because I remembered that part in the game.

P.S. I wanted to shoot that "nerd king" or nerd god whatever guy that went up there. That guy...

Remember when screens of Uncharted 1 first came out and everyone immediately said Drake was the male Lara Croft and already dismissed the game? Good times.

The whole "don't get me wrong it's a great game" phrase is the most overused phrase in N4G history. Just say "overrated" and get it over with. That phrase doesn't give credit to anything, it's just a disagree button shield that didn't seem to work in your favor.

I hope you don't think Gears is overrated because Winback had the cover system, or Portal is overrated because PREY had it first too.

The attention to physi...

A bunch of console gamers saying how overrated Half-Life 2 is. Anyone that played it way before the Orange Box know exactly how well deserved this award is, congrats to Valve.

I haven't seen another game this decade innovate while combining the best elements in gaming together as much as HL2 did. It's still one of the best looking games too without even needing heavy requirements from a PC.

I'm waiting on Pikmin 3 and Bayonetta 2 to get one. As far as game comparisons, we all know Nintendo has a track record of .putting more emphasis on gameplay than graphics of a new console

I'm sure when Metroid and Zelda are released, they'll be the main benchmark to show what the Wii U can do. For now I'm just keeping my expectations low on graphics like I have been for the past 2 Nintendo consoles.

Another selling point of the system for m...

I was just like most people and thought a Final Fantasy MMO would suck, but Final Fantasy XI turned out to be one of the best games I've ever played (before the most recent updates where you can leave your computer on and max out your level in a day). People still play it on PC, PS2, and 360 after 8 years from there being so much to do in the game.

I bought FF14 when it first came out, but there wasn't much to do, laggy servers, and my gaming rig made me not want to p...

I remember beating the Lost Levels, that game was hard as hell lol. I wonder how many people died at the very beginning thinking the mushroom was some short of new super mushroom for Mario.

ugh...behind-the-car view and the same move where you just keep going straight while another car turns into you so you'll turn without losing alot of speed.

Two things that annoy the shit out of me...

Wow, Nintendo is really starting to sound like Sony used to. It's actually kinda annoying...

I went with the heavenly sword background too since the demo is coming thursday. The wallpaper is bright though since there's fire in the background...i'm used to the background being dark at night lol

Yeah the best bet would be to price the 80 gb to $500...but then the 60 gb people that just bought their PS3s now would be pissed, unless Sony is thinking "eh they got 5 free blu-ray movies they'll be fine" while the 80 gb gets a bigger hard drive and motorstorm..

And yeah it's of the game, not of the bundle

Damn...well if you have the money lol. I'm thinking of buying an elite before Halo 3 comes, but anyway back on topic, looks like Sony is back on track. And then on July 26th, the PS3 is bundled with Hot Shots Golf 5 for the Japanese and already has 300,000 preorders. The next-gen script is really starting to turn around for Sony, woo hoo!

LOL @ Nintendo passing PS2...yes Wii Fit will help out alot. By 2008, I'm not sure if the Wii's graphics will be able to hold up. They're ok to look at now, but while the 360 and PS3's graphics start looking even better, the Wii's graphics will only maybe be a little better than the first Xbox, if that. Yes normally gamers say graphics aren't everything, but this generation it seems they're going to play a major roll in gaming. DirectX 10 as well the PS3 and 360 are showing off some good ...

lol kotaku...the title made me think Reggie actually quoted this, but after seeing this Wii Fit stuff and after Mario Galaxy, Smash Bros, and Metroid, Nintendo is going to really need some help with their lineup

I like Sony and all...but I'm noticing this change of balanced news as well. It was refreshing to see good news for Sony, but now that the 360 is starting to get bashing articles it's starting to get annoying again..

The sad thing is I think if this was demo'd during the sony convention, the ps3 would've been pounded with insults..."the cell's power buwahahahaha the AI is so stupid so the cell is stupid hahahaha". At least it looks like the smart people realize this is a multi-platform...and a demo
