Have you guys thought of doing a mini marathon quarterly showcasing the latest releases? That would be cool.

I agree with the Control Issues complaint, my biggest problem with the latest sports games is the 3 page instruction manuals. For example; MLB The Show, don't get me wrong I think the game is awesome, but a lot of the pitchers statistics when I'm batting confuse me along with other gameplay tips that aren't explained. I don't want to have to buy a strategy guide just to PLAY the game.
It seems the creators just cater to Sports fans and not someone that just picks the game up to try. I'm sure that hinders new players from buying them.

Here's a little fun fact I know of. Burgess Meredith had quit smoking before playing the part of The Penguin for the TV series. When he had to cough he turned the sound into the "Quack, Quack" and it stuck.

Fun fact, Nathan Fillion is a gamer and plays Halo with Alan Tudyk,

I thought for sure you guys would have included a story about Virtual Magic Kingdom this week. It was Disney's promotional MMO that they closed down because they weren't making any money on it, which in turn broke a lot of childrens hearts.

Went to the store to buy my first console, the PS1 not knowing that you need a memory card. Bought my first game took it home got everything hooked up. unwrap the game load it not realizing I couldn't save anything and then a voice fills my ears. RESIDENT EVIL a few minutes later GAME OVER. WTF I have to start over.

Three different endings depending on your karma in the game.

You forgot The Suffering

Wouldn't it be something if they had the story in San Andreas during the gold rush era! Hopefully the map will at least be that size.

What about when you have to sneak into the girls dorm Bully. LOL!

Great article. And Medal of Honor:Frontline just had me going WOW!!! I think it paved the way for immersion and storytelling in FPS. I would have picked Rising Sun's opening as a runner up. I was in awe at the detail and accuracy of the attack on Pearl Harbor. Kudos!

You tell everybody. Listen to me, Hatcher. You've gotta tell them! Wii MotionPlus is people! We've gotta stop them somehow!

Caught that one great movie! Great article!

Blender is a fantastic program. I created this video just after following 2 tutorials:

You guys forgot Robert Rodriguez! El Mariachi would make an awesome game character. Awesome gunplay that would put Dante to shame. And think of the NPC voiceovers he'd include. Cheech Marin, Steve Buscemi, Johnny Depp, and erm... Salma Hayek(drools).

Great article. I think one of the dirtiest tricks I have seen was when Disney closed it's Virtual Magic Kingdom site. Here's a link to one of the articles:

Nice choice for game of the year. Fallout 3 is fantastic. Btw, that Left 4 Dead video is hilarious. Have you guys done a feature on the biggest pussies caught on video playing games? If not that would be great!

any word if it will be Danny Elfman doing the soundtrack?

thanks for the tip on brothers in arms, and farcry Deadgirls now i know what to look for im so sick of the 10 hour completion time in games now.

Is it just me or is anyone else tired of single player being chosen second fiddle in games nowadays?
