The 10 most pointless videogame subtitles ever

PS3 Feature | Resistance: Fall of Man

To clarify, this isn’t about dialog captions, which are also referred to as “subtitles.” This is about the wastes of ink which game publishers love printing after game names.

It’s some letters that provide no information other than, “Hey, this isn’t the original Halo 3, it’s actually something a bit different.” ... » Read More

How the hell was this ever controversial?!

PS3 Feature | Resistance: Fall of Man

For a medium that lets us chainsaw faces off, punch presidents in their plums and slaughter endangered species, it's amazing how sensitive some of us get when developers do things we don't agree with. Certainly there have been many decisions to get us all worked up, whether it's Killzone 2's 'target footage' or Shigsy shedding that last bit of lingering dignity by playing Wii Music like a diminutive Japanese John Williams.

What the hell were we thinking?!?!

PS3 Feature | Resistance: Fall of Man

Chaos, mayhem, uproar and riots. That's what GamesRadar seems to have triggered with last week's feature, "The Ten Greatest Years in Videogame History ". We might as well have burned down the internet, for all the email and forum flaming we inspired. Some folks praised us, some wanted us crucified, and one called us "wankers", ignoring that the feature only covered the US market. Granted, we set ourselves up.

PS3 Feature | Resistance: Fall of Man
