Lame. When I was a kid RPGs were good for non-perverted enjoyment. Sex scenes are just a cheap way to get horny boys to buy the game minus more in-depth gameplay elements. It might as well be filled with fart jokes.
I don't understand why people think Bioshock was a great game. I'm glad to be done with it. It pissed me off when I beat it on hard and did not get the achievement, even though it was incredibly easy to beat on hard. I didn't have trouble killing even one big daddy. The story was moderately interesting, but ultimately just a linear story that pretends to have some kind of choice involved. It is NOT an RPG. I hate when people say it has RPG elements; it's got items, big deal. That doesn't make...
Some games are just ridiculously easy these days, even on the hardest setting, or the difficulty setting just does something cheap like make you more prone to dying and the enemy harder to kill, rather than changing elements in the game or making the AI tougher. The games then require cheaper tactics like exploiting glitches, rather than challenging your skill. Fallout 3, for example, is just sad. Not only is it so easy that it gets boring quickly, but it doesn't have a real boss fight, AND i...
The games are still available without a gold membership. A silver membership is free--it just means you can browse and buy content but can't play online.
I just bought one. I can finally upgrade my older 360 (which is still running after 5 years) to one with an HDMI cable. Thankfully since I can get the arcade one I don't need to pay for a new hard drive, and after all of the extras, the console itself will have cost me very little. Sweet deal.
I miss FF3/6; it was linear and open at the same time, and when you got near the end it opened up a lot.
I thought the graphics engine sucked when it was new. Doom3 engine was way better.
In my view, the perfect outcome of this would be for Bethesda to be stripped of the rights to the franchise (retaining Fallout 3, of course). I don't know if Interplay is capable anymore of making a good Fallout game, but I do know that Bethesda sure isn't.
I'm willing to bet the final class is some sort of archer. It's basically a given, since every Diablo game must have an archer and this one doesn't yet.
What, it might go from ridiculously easy to ridiculously easier?
The game was only a challenge at level 3 or so, and even then if you do enough exploring and get a good gun it's still easy. You could beat the darn game without putting a single point into a useful skill if you wanted, esp. since at the end the stupid robot does all the killing for you.
I think the original Fallouts did not have a level cap, but the game was over by level 15-20, but it took a lot longe...
Hooray!
Gears 2 came out 2 years after the original. I haven't played L4D yet, but usually it's bad news when a sequel comes out so soon.
Yet another reason I <3 Blizzard: they never rush a game. StarCraft 2 is coming out 11 years after the original, and the time has been well used.
Back to the point of the story: if only Target weren't on the other side of town I'd go check it out right now...
I don't usually mind having to beat a game once to unlock the hardest mode, but twice is ridiculous. ME really pissed me off for being so darn easy. I could beat that game in my sleep. I got bored of it a while into the second playthrough, though. It only seemed to get easier. The story in ME was great, but the combat really lagged because the AI was just so darn stupid. All they did was waddle back and forth and yell "I will destroy you!" over and over again. Hopefully they really ...
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooo oo!!!!!
It's Fallout all over again! :o(
As much as I want Duke to be finished, it's always "almost" done. It's always just a few more months. I don't blame Take Two for getting tired of that excuse. I think the lawsuit is just a strategic move to wrest the IP from 3D Realms' hands. They probably want to force a settlement out of court that includes the bargain sale of Duke to Take Two.
It's just a joke. Doesn't anyone check sources?

Starcraft 2 would have been a $160 game anyway--Blizzard has always been big on expansions. The only difference is that the single player campaign for each is all one race. Each race has 3x the maps, though, so it's not like they cut anything out.
This is terrible! I've always been annoyed how they sell you the game outside the case. I don't want them playing with my game before I buy it. I guess I won't be shopping at Gamestop anymore unless I have to.
This review isn't very good. I actually like Under Hill the best--even though you start too close to each other, there are three different routes of conflict: up the bridge (mortar), straight on (torque bow), or through the building (flamethrower). The only problem is that you get stuck on the door a lot even if it's open if you press A next to it.
Grind Yard is fun but terribly unbalanced. The power weapon in the middle is just too darn good a spot. There's only one way up, so a...
This article makes no sense whatsoever. If JRPG sales are down in Japan, it's not because of hurt feelings that make Japanese gamers not want to the PS3 to play JRPGs. The fact of the matter is, Japanese gamers love JRPGs; if they want them, they are going to buy them, regardless of the system, and the developers know this. Thus, making efforts to succeed in the western market without changing the games can only help them.
If JRPG developers are having a problem, it is only in th...
WHEN WILL IT END?!?!?!
