23 days 17 hours ago on The Top 7… Things we hate about sports games
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.

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.

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.

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 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!
