1 day, 4 hours ago Bastion review
So, I'm watching my friend play this game. It's looks nice, but what the hell is with the annoying narrator? Does he have to follow you around the entire game?! Jesus, and he thinks he's the sh*t with his raspy voice. >:/ Also, this style really doesn't mesh well with the whole "western" thing, I think.

I am probably just picky, but both this and Braid had things I couldn't get over, even though they are so highly rated.

CancerMan they said SOME of the games will be exclusive. Not all of them.

God nes games are old. Holy crap. Kind of wish they would have went with snes games instead, or even gameboy color games. Pokemon anyone?!

Oh well. Free is free, I guess. Probably won't be playing any of these more than once though...

SIGH. Advertisements are NOT cool, they never were and never will be. They are only one thing, annoying. Why microsoft...WHY? Because they live in their own little out of touch world. That's why. Get out from under your rocks guys.

lmao at that whiteboard.

Oh I was just shown this game a few weeks ago!! You are not alone to be late on the bandwagon! lol. And I sat there for the next two hours trying to master it. But I only got to like 36 meters I think. It's so fun.

I FREAKING HATE GTA4!!!!

But, otherwise, great list. :) Would be the best list if you took GTA4 out and put in Planescape: Torment instead! Just saying..

But thumbs up
10 months, 3 weeks ago Day-one 3DS sales surpass that of any other Nintendo handheld
Well sure didn't seem that way with only like 10 people showing up to pick theirs up on launch day lol. Maybe just a moral booster?

Totally worth it, though. I love this thing!
10 months, 3 weeks ago Nintendo dismisses 3DS headache concerns as 'minor discomfort,' recommends short breaks
I haven't experienced ay sort of headaches or anything. I am essentially immune to motion sickness etc, though.

I don't have a 3d game yet so that I cannot judge*launch titles MEH :P), but first day I played pretty extensively with what was on the system already, and no ill effects here!

I am pretty confident that when I get a game I will not have any problems with it.

10 months, 4 weeks ago This is why the games you loved as a child are best left in the cupboard
Not if you played good games!

I have recently played a lot of the games I usually nostalgia about. Donkey kong country 2, Pokemon Blue, Silver and Crystal, Crash Team Racing, GTA Vice City, etc. They are all every single bit of fun as they once were. Every single bit.

I also sometimes pick up and appreciate old games that I never played. And being someone who enjoys bad movies and games a heck of a lot more than I should, the worse the better! Great example: Michael Jackson's Moonwalker. Which is just hilarious in that it even exists. But I also appreciate good old games I never played before, like Chrono Trigger.

Old games are great. The end.
If they are bad now they were probably bad back then and you just couldn't afford to buy something else because you were like 6.

It is my firm belief that amazing graphics and all that fancy new stuff have very little to do with whether a game is good or not.

You could play this...OR you could get one of those ghost buster looking real life vaccuums and be a REAL ghost buster.

This game looks great. Will play!

I agree with all of these.


P.S. I vividly remember playing that freaking TV station level on veteran. Over...and over...and over...and over...

I gave up. It is the one reason I did not finish it on veteran.

If someone would have come in and said "It's only a game." to me during that time...nothing could contain my rage.

@XLGirthMan They sued rightfully. They were fired for little reason, it seems to me. They had good reason to be angry. Activision is just sueing because they are dicks.

You know, I came in here thinking I was gonna have to berate you for neglecting Planescape: Torment and the old Fallout games, but I was wrong! I am surprised!! Well done.

I can still berate you for including a grand theft auto game, though...
11 months ago Oblivion's horse armour DLC is STILL selling: Bethesda calls it "inexplicable", we call it basic human degradation
@fffanatic1 agreed! I have so far been procrastinating on buying it purely because of the ridiculous price. The only thing I really want is the zombie map...but I am not paying like $15 for that alone.

I think we should have just boycotted it personally, but no, people just like to throw their money away. They raise the price because they know people will buy it. And they DO. al rflai alhfs algrrrrrrrrrrrr
