The 12 most annoying sidekicks EVER
Entertaining list, I liked it. =) Although the annoyance of Navi in Ocarina of Time is incredibly overblown. She yells something, you answer, you skip the text, it takes 4 seconds, and you get half an hour of peace before having to spare another sacred 4 seconds. Hooray!

11 badass game characters who should be wimps
Nice list, made me chuckle a few times. Kind of odd to pick flaws in these characters though. Ah well, maybe you just prefer more realistic, less ass-kicking characters like... Ashley Graham. Still, you made some funky points. I loved your description of Salazar, even though I don't think he has a parasite inside him, he's just a bit evil.

The 25 best new characters of the decade
"Instead, they elevated him to godhood – and then betrayed him" That's one thing I very strongly disagree with about Kratos. You could say Zeus betrayed him, or you could say Zeus had to interfere because Kratos was using his godly abilities to try and help Sparta rule the world. Kratos has a tragic background, but... he's still a bit of a twat really.

Modern Warfare 2's glaring plot holes exposed!
I always found the 'No Russian' mission a bit weird. Not in the sense that it wasn't dramatic or scene-setting, but why wouldn't the soldier your playing as question why he had to kill all those innocents? He has a gun with enough firepower to quickly shoot all of terrorists, or at least kill half of them before having to run for cover, but instead he just plays along, fully aware that he's in touching distance of the guy who is supposedly behind all the problems... He deserved to get shot for either not thinking things through, or being more stupid than Kratos.

Why isn't Kratos on this list? Throughout both God of War games, you can't help but get the feeling that he's not only a complete idiot who brings every trouble upon himself, but also meatheaded twat, and I say this being fully aware that he could rip my noggin off without breaking a sweat. Still, I could always show him a simple maths problem, and watch as his head implodes...

Why Kratos on this list? Throughout both of the God of War games, you just get the general impression that he's not only a twat, but also a complete moron, and I say this in full awareness that he could pull of my noggin without breaking a sweat. Then again, I could always distract him with a maths problem and then watch as his head implodes...

The Top 7... Maddest British old-school games
This blog does well to illustrate why I don't like being a gamer in Britain. You lucky yanks over there got I-Ninja, Megaman Anniversary Collection, Earthbound, the SNES Chrono Trigger, and 3 Final Fantasy Games before FFVII. Meanwhile, we got... Hover Bovver. Hover Bovver.
