Anyone notice how Yakuza 2's boxart was just Yakuza 1's but zoomed in and without colour?

Nintendo and Guitar Hero are dead to me.

Is it just me or do those babies look like their looking directly into my soul and controling my every thought.

I'm not saying vaginas suck it's just...You think they'd notice that she was hanging out like that before they post it on the Internet.

I don't know if you'd noticed but the vast majority of Wii titles boil down to waving the the Wii remote like a madman. Yes folks the Wii is absolute horseshit and Nintendo can kiss my skinny white arse.

It's not the Wii that sucks (except for the graphics, most of the time), it's the games. There can be good ones, like Super Mario Galaxy, but most of them are, well... crap.

*Sigh* at Wii Music and o_0 at Lara pics. Oh, and that Evangelion reference kinda came out of nowhere.

Something else i'd like to bring up. How the hell does far Cry 2 pick up the 'best game that's horribly broken' award? Maybe it's just me but if a game I was reviewing was 'horribly broken' I wouldn't give it a 9/10.

I appreciate far cry 2 wasn't everyones cup of tea and it had some bugs but broken it was not. Whoever writes stuff like this needs to spend some time in a quiet room having a word with themselves.

Oh, and stop copying Yahtzee's review quotes into you're features it's considerably less funny the second time round.

Gynecology...Thanks Wikipedia! Hmmm, the "science of women". I believe you could have replaced pictorial crash course with porn but no, you made me learn something. Thanks so much GR.

Lolzville! btw the two words i had to type in to be able to post this were trim hussey... That sounds like.. "That lara croft model sure does have a trim hussey, wouldnt you agree?" But seriously, hilarious article...

I honestly believe that Nintendo has become a disgrace to gaming. I don't think a game has to be gory and violent to be good, but it just seems as Nintendo hates video games and they are trying to get people to stop playing them. (If it was possible)Nintendo will single handedly kill gaming as we know it.
vic88  - 10 months 20 days ago 
didn't nintendo revive the gaming industry in the 80s and now there killing it.

“I feel like Nintendo’s breaking up with me.”

If we're going with a relationship example I feel as a person who grew up with Nintendo in it's waning years, a more adequate one would be this: Nintendo is like the friend you grew up with. Sure, he was pretty nerdy and kinda funny looking. But you were pretty nerdy yourself and he was a lot of fun and so you remained friends and stuck up for him when other people would make fun of him for all those years. As the years went by though, he started to change. He lost interest in the things you once shared, and took up a lot of strange new more 'active' hobbies. Suddenly he didn't want to just stay in and hang around with you and your little group of close friends. He just wanted to go out to big old parties with all his casual acquaintances. Nowadays you hardly even see her any more. He refuses to come out and admit it but you both can see the writing on the wall. You know it's only a matter of time until you drift apart and stop seeing each other completely. I hope doesn't expect to be able to come crawling back to you when his new friends all get sick of him.

Ugh i bit the HAZE worm hook line and sinker. What a load of bastards.

And lordy, those Tomb raider pictures should be labelled NSFW or even NSFV (the V standing for viewing). That woman has no shame, *shivers*

@ikillchicken:

Actually, I'd just say Nintendo was hit by a car and is now in coma. The Nintendo we have here is his evil twin bound on trying to make the worst games ever by plastering "casual" on its very face.
