Someone should point out that "bob-omb" is the proper name of the SMB enemy, not "bomb-omb" which some people apparently started calling it because they can't read.

I was technically in the beta but I refused to play while they kept up their males only doctrine, and they didn't hesitate to delete my posts from the forums calling them out on it. At least I can still play Pangya.

I'd like FF13 if the combat system didn't suck. Trying to force turn based combat into a real time system just makes a mess. Give me the classic "ATB: Wait - Realtime" setting in the config menu and you'll have a much better game. Well, that and making my loot drops not dependent on how fast I can finish a battle.

I agree with the first poster. This game is fairly easy to figure out. The reviewer should stick to Halo. And how about a review for those of us who aren't insane sadistic pricks and aren't going into the game for the purpose of terrorizing the virtual population?

A great concept done when it was called DEATH TRACK in 1990, one of the best racing games of the era. Unfortunately, this company bastardized the name and turned it into a Wipeout/Rollcage clone. After I played the demo quite a while ago, I posted an angry post on their forums about how they crapped all over the original.

"Another year, another gutless update to a game which peaked back in 2007. It deserves better."
"And yet Tiger ’08 was such a high point even two years of spinelessness can’t keep Tiger ’10 from being the best golf game ever, for what it’s worth."

Make up your mind.

Small error on your chart: Metal Gear Solid 3's subtitle is Snake Eater, not Subsistence. Subsistence is the special enhanced release.

The number 1 reason I don't play multiplayer games anymore is because of voice chat. I'd be thrilled if everyone I was playing with was a mute.

Anyone else just realize that the initials for Duke Nukem Forever are the same as for "Did Not Finish", often put on scoreboards and such in racing games where cars can be blown up and people knocked out of races.

I sometimes enjoy EVE in short 1 and 2 month bursts, but it's not going to EVER get a huge player base as long as the whole concept of the game is acting like an asshole to other people to grief them and steal their stuff. And the playerbase is mostly just that -- assholes. Not just ANY assholes, but nutjob, right-wing Ayn Rand-iates who think if you're not kicking someone in the face, then you should be the one getting kicked.

Sounds like DotA is the future of multiplayer RTS, which, if I DID like playing multiplayer games, I'd be quite pleased with.

I should also point out Lara Croft is a thief who murders people because they beat her to what she's trying to steal, not a heroine.

I vote to replace the patriot poster with Jade or Faith.

OMG! It sounds just like... DYNASTY WARRIORS! WTF di you expect!?

Who's that "Patriot" one? Looks kinda like a Jade (from BG&E) but too Asian.

I stopped playing it when they forced me to be the bitch to some punk slavers and then proceeded to bash the expansion everywhere I could.

I've gotta agree with the above commenter. This review is just an embarrassment. I'm not saying the game doesn't have its problems, but they're certainly not the ones the reviewer commented on. It's still a good game for fans of JRPGs, especially considering the complete lack of great JRPGs on the PC. And it's significantly better than its 360 counterpart, in much the same way as the PC Mass Effect was.

Supply Lines is a MUCH MUCH MUCH worse mission in GTA: SA than Wrong Side of the Tracks. That I could usually finish in 6 tries. Supply Lines takes cheats plus 50+ tries.

I'd never even heard of the DOA movie (or I just confused it with the Japanese DOA movies). I liked most of the movies on this list (with the exception HOTD and Mario and I haven't seen the Tomb Raiders).

Cigs that won't make you dead have already been done but no one's buying.
