Looks fun but I hope there's a way you can tackle this without having to rely on other people. Co-op is a nice thing to have but I'd much rather have a sound single player campaign.

politics (ie. red alert)
tanks
warthogs
heavy rain
cogs

9 months 16 days ago on Why do licensed kiddie games suck?
The thing a lot of people don't understand in kiddie games is that there is an audience who appreciates them. You don't get any representation of the little kids who play videogames because all they care about is having quick and easy fun with a relatable and/or recognizable character. Kids don't even think to care about gameplay elements and plot. Smack sonic the hedgehog or mario on it and it will sell regardless of wether or not the hardcore audience cashes in on it.

I'm gonna have to say real life toads are cooler than toad. Maybe that's just me.

Also, in general, physics in real life really suck compared to videogame physics.

kruiser is right about Q. He really does look like rorsach. Now if only they could make a game about watchmen that won't plain suck.

the mii business cards got me thinking about the picture I saw of a wanted sign in some asian country with a mii headshot instead of a real person's. I'm not sure if it was real or not.

cheers on the awesome best and worst parts vid. only thing is that from what I've seen, the little anime sequences look kinda nice. I can like the over-the-top background and ridiculously epic guitar. If capcom is making fun of themselves on this part than i think it's pretty damn funny. if not, than that's just embarassing for the publishers.3

I'm surprised nobody mentioned the PDA mini game in Alien Hominid on XBLA. I thought that game was awesome but that minigame was just straight tedious.

2 days 1 hour ago on Top 7... Blatantly sexist game advertisements
To be fair, they're not really different than half the ads during a football game. (The Juiced ad being the exception)

Good article though, Joe.
8 days 7 hours ago on Video: What happens when a girl smashes a 360...
She could of just put in a game that he really wanted to play, it probably would have RRoD on him and broke it further than her 93 lbs of make-up and designer jeans could have.

Also, I'd like to point out that's not a 9 iron. Couldn't quite tell, maybe a cheap hybrid from a set someone bought?
Still, I'm not sure what would have pissed me off more, my GF ruining my golf clubs or ruining my 360.

"...play a rogue M16 agent working for Goldfinger..."

I think you mean "MI6" not "M16". 1 does look like a capital I, so that's probably why it got missed in editing.


On topic - I don't even understand why people loved Diablo II so much, or the first one for that matter. So the hate over Diablo III's art style completely baffled me.
27 days 4 hours ago on The Top 7… Tasteful game heroines
Really? You think Metroid 2: The Return of Samus is "criminally obscure"?


Anyways, I was thinking about last gen, and I know it gets mentioned all the time, but what about Amaterasu from Okami?
True, she's naked the entire game, but she's tastefully naked, which not many heroines can pull off.

Also, I know there's already an Alex on the list, but Alex Roivas from Eternal Darkness was a very tasteful heroine.

You should do more reviews T-Nag!
I really want this. KOTOR and Neverwinter Nights are two of my favorite games, and games that I replayed 3 or more times, which is very rare for me.

Luckily I got a new computer this week, I think when I upgrade the graphics card I'll have to get this. (Assuming I don't put it off until right before Star Craft II comes out)

Also, I'll confirm Charlie Bear-hat, they do have Fry's in LA. Also they have a grocery chain named Fry's and Fry's Electronics in Arizona. Crazy!
