The absolute WORST water levels
Majora's Mask nailed the problem of water levels to me. Using the Zora mask made swimming fast and fluid, something most games don't do. I didn't think the Water Temple in OoT was that horrible, but the slow pace of switching boots and waiting to get down there bored me to death.

QOTW: What dead company or franchise do you miss the most?
Bullfrog and Dungeon Keeper - loved the witty satirical style the series had, shame on you EA for killing it! *clenched fist*

Adeline Software and Little Big adventure games, it's hard to find a title that comes close to LBA, maybe Zelda, but I really miss the unique world and all the lore fluff around it. Come one Frédérick Raynal, we need LBA3. I miss action adventure titles overall, it's like the genre is dying or something. I mean, GTA is nothing like Zelda, please stop classifying it as action adventure. It's more like open-world action.

Shadowrun was really fun, too bad the game has been canned thanks to the lack of titles plus a sub par multiplayer game that should be forgotten and whoever developed it, laughed at.

Freelancer had an accessible way of space combat controls that felt really fresh. A sequel would be nice, pretty please?

Golden Axe... aaah the good and ol' beat em' up. Is it that hard to bring the good stuff back?

Not sure we can call it dead (yet?), how about another Star Fox game? Nintendo, you're not giving any love to your Wii owners.
On that N trend, what happened to the team who created Kirby Superstar? That game was awesome. Translate it to a 3D world and you'll have a happy fanbase waiting for it.

Jedi Knight/Dark Forces series... because slashing people with a saber with directional swinging never gets old, and the force powers were quite balanced in there. Raven did a real good job with the games, but then, we get a Jedi May Cry game from Lucasarts. No thanks, I'll stick with Jedi Outcast.

Secret of Mana sequel, I mean, thanks square for killing the franchise.

QOTW: What overused gameplay element are you terribly sick of?
I'm going to agree with hot heart and on "good or evil" choices. The world is not that black and white, there got to be more options rather than "chop off this guy's head or donate money to his ill mother".

I mean, Dungeon and Dragons got an interesting alignment system, of nine degrees. I prefer more varied choices than rather 2, not only because this feels unrealistic, but also leaves no room for possible diversity in story, plot twists, it just doesn't make us think about our actions and the following consequences. Even a kid can understand the differences in the results of your choices in Fable, for example. That's shallow.

Which console will win Fall 2009?
I don't own a console currently, and Nintendo aside, the PS3 titles look far more promising.
Left 4 Dead 2? Alright, but it's not something really refreshing. I'm sure it will be great but hardly the same impact as the first for the "new" aspect. New Halo sounds alright, even though I was never a fan of the series. Splinter Cell Conviction sounds nice, but then the series derailed a bit for me, mixed expectations for it.

MAG on the other hand sounds awesome so far, if it mimics Planetside, it will be a sure win.

Each day that passes I feel Microsoft doesn't know how to handle competition well, so they have to resort to paying the developers for new exclusive content for their console and so on, it's rather sad. Not like I had much respect for MS before...

I place my bets on Valve. They're the few companies out there that do innovate quite a lot on their sequels. I really enjoyed the gameplay additions say, in Episode One for example, like having to manage your flashlight battery fighting hordes of zombies in plain darkness.

Screw these butthurt boycott L4D2 people. They will end buying the game as well, and they'll figure out it's worth it just like the first was.

I had mixed feelings about L4D2, but then I don't think it's Valve milking their customers, they have a lot of credibility compared to most developers, and they bought the original game from turtlerock studios or something like that. I believe they'll greatly improve the game, I'll be buying this thing.

What about Left 4 Dead? In the end of the chapters, the hardest think to choose over is to rescue or not a mate who's being killed outside of the safe house, risking your own life or close the safe house and let him rot outside. The outcome is just a mere difference in the points your team acquire if you're in versus but due to the immersion of the game, it's a very harsh dilemma.
