6 months 11 days ago on Halo 3 (Xbox 360): Radio 1 goes Big on Gaming Weekend
To be honest they should probably have done something other than 'Best Game Ever'. Its been done to death by every game website out there, so the majority of gamers will already have seen any number of these things.

A feature exploring the medium as a hobby, an art form etc would have been better, even bringing up the positive finacial aspects, especially with the current economic situation. Gaming is finally shedding this nerdy stereotype and having a big poll on favourite games ever is only going to drag it back up.

I can aprrectiate that Chris Moyles is both popular and influential, what I don't understand is why.

As for him being a gamer I wouldn't know, as you may have guessed I'm not the biggest fan of his show. Regardless he wasn't referenced in the article anyway, my mention of him was in answer to mattface's question above my comment.

Mills soemtimes fills in for that fat prick Moyles.

And got to agree with the milking thing. Now that gaming is hot property we'll have DJ's and Z-list celebs chatting about how they've gamed for years, blah blah blah.

Played the demo mission of xbox live and this is great fun. The destruction works really well, although it is confined to buildings and the hammer is absolutely genius.

So looking forward to this.

"One of the biggest criticisms of the first movie-based Transformer games was the lack of any sort of online gameplay."

A mate of mine bought the first one and when I tried to play the game my biggest criticism wasn't that it lacked online multiplayer. It was the fact that the game sucked balls on every level imaginable, most notably the piss poor controls and the instantly redundant gameplay.

The potential is there it just needs time to be made into a good game based on Transformers as opposed to a really wank tie-in.

Got to agree with Yossarian, the Terminator one was pure genius.

7 months 6 days ago on Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 2 (Xbox 360): Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 2
It may be for D.W. fans but the biggest issue is that the whole series hasn't changed since the first game on the PS2. It was wank then and however many years down the line nothing's changed, it's still very wank.

A Darwinian approach would be fitting here, 'evolve or die' that sort of thing, but then again Miss Croft always seems to get away with it so why shouldn't Dynasty Warriors try?

Yeah. It was pretty stupid that you could have Fawkes stood there and yet he wouldn't go in and deactivate the console. I mean 'sacrifice yourself or send in the guy who isn't going to suffer a horrible death'. Something of a no brainer really.

One of the more entertaining enemy AI routines in MOH games was that the enemies always did use unmanned guns to the extent that they would abandon their cover, charge across open ground and take up the exact same position that their comrade did.

All you needed was an accurate rifle and once you'd aimed your first shot you could just stand perfectly still and pick off the entire enemy unit as each one took over the gun. Genius.

"Touchy pointer controls make this an exercise in frustration"

You could use that to review just about any Wii game out there. I love it.

Two main characters but you switch between them. Does this mean there's no co-op? Seems like a shame if there isn't.

I bought this for the 360 and only suffered from one major issue which was a corrupted save file.

Whether this was an in game issue or the fact that the disc got damaged I don't know, but I got the disc cleaned and afterwards the game worked fine. Although the particular file did remain unloadable.

Either way it didn't affect me too badly as with all sandbox games I always keep two save files and 'leapfrog' them as I go along.

The Tenchu series is in serious need of an overhaul methinks.

I've always enjoyed them but they were never very fluid. Having to stop to aim the grappling hook became really annoying when a guard than shivs you in the back causing you to fly through the air.

The combat was always a bitch as well especially with the bosses as there was no way of stealthing them. Oni-fucking-kage springs to mind.

If Resi 4 could do it then why not Tenchu? I live in hope.

Although people who whinge about gaming really piss me off we should consider this with a nod to the future.
I see two possible outcomes here: either common sense will prevail or (the more likely outcome) due to a quirk of human biology all the miserable bastards will get old and die solving the problem in a neat and tidy manner.

I recently bought Army of Two as I was looking for some co-op games to play with my mates and despite the fact it received far less than rave reviews it's actually quite a lot of fun.

The reason for this is simple....there are no games that are bad when you're playing with a friend. And come on, the game has a button so you can slap you're mate round the head if he upsets you. Classic.

"How do you have to be smart to orchestrate the Holocaust?"

If you have to ask that question then it seems unlikely you even understand what the Holocaust was or how it was implemented. I'd have simply not bothered commenting.

From the second I saw the title I was waiting to see Speed Ball and it never showed up. That really is a crying shame, Brutal Dleuxe was one of the finest games the amiga had to offer.

I've got to agree with you there, the environments don't look particularly diverse. They should have included one with a school or an aircraft hangar.
I mean just snow covered mountains its a bit of a let down in a snowboarding game.

Ah fair enough, appreciate the insight.

To be honest I'm surprised this scored as highly as it did. After all a voice command system is surely only intended to streamline RTS' on consoles and would technically be a bit pointless on PC.
