      The worst, THE worst, absolutely has to be the Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots trailers, as much as I loved the game(completed 13+ times and earned Big Boss status) not one thing in that game surprised me, outside the final revelation. They ruined every characters, every location and 80% of the plot in the trailers, made me feel empty a little, especially when they even blew the Shadow Mosses level. Buggers.

      Ughh another dumb article, I mean seriously your complaining about the developrs giving out too much information while trying to build hype for their games? Are you incapable from not pressing the play button on the youtube video your about to watch? Seriously though with media now a days everything gets some juicy spoiler bits out there, not only games but movies too. Trailers are important, they help build hype, they get a little bit of the story out there, it's sort of like the first sentence in an essay, it's a hook to get the reader excited. If anyone is spoiling too much information about games it's probably the game news sites like GR and Game Informer, so I don't understand how you can whine about that when your the one's getting exclusive interviews and previews. Also on a latter note for the people who whine about the spoilers they hear from their friends or the media, you need to grow up, unless you want to walk around with your head in a bucket then by gosh your going to hear something about something.

      Yes it's true that the gaming sites spread this information around, but as he said that's just part of the job; their hands are tied. If the game publishers put out promotional material for a game, the gaming sites have to show it because their job is informing the readers about the games and advertising them. In order to be taken seriously as a gaming website even, they have to be up to date on this information with the other gaming websites. The big problem isn't so much that of gaming journalists as it is the way the publishers are advertising the games themselves. They're giving away too much is what he means. The website must simply report it.

      Signed up just to comment on this. While the article calls for excellent changes ("increased number of people in matches" is long overdue), there is one where it completely messes up. "...and we wouldn’t mind seeing some extra attention paid to Divas matches as well. The women don’t wrestle like their male counterparts, so why should their matches feel exactly the same? " As someone who has made a lot of female CAWs over the history of the WWE games, you do not realize what you are asking for. You are right when you say that Divas do not wrestle like the Superstars IRL. It's as plain as day to anyone with at least one eye: Less actual wresting, a lot more slaps, head pounding, hair pulling, butt bumping, flailing, screaming (oh god, the screaming), to say nothing of the incredibly shorter average match time and roll-up pins. And CERTAINLY none of the more extreme or non-standard match types. You are asking for that to be translated to the game, instead of how it is now where the women pretty much wrestle like and can do anything the men do. Why? For what reason is there to punish players who pick/make women with an unarguably inferior-but-true-to-life system? Where would the long term fun be from? If you argue that "it should be an option"....who would pick the option and enjoy it with no trace of irony? Maybe I'm misunderstanding the writer, but I see no other way to somehow differentiate women's matches from men's other than to handicap them, ruining the fact that it's a *game* and is supposed to be *fun.* Unless you mean the return of women's specialty "matches" like Bra & Panties, which, haha, good luck with that with WWE's current programming direction. Women being able to do whatever moves and matches the players want in-game should be the goal, and it's only with recent entries that things have really opened up. 2K can continue to expand to this goal by adding Women's Royal Rumble (because WWE is explicitly blocking intergender matches, outside of the specialty tag match...where you get DQ'd if you hit the opposite gender) and First Blood (though anyone with sense will know WWE will never sanction a women's First Blood match, in game or otherwise).

      Niko Bellic: Application rejected... then suddenly approved. So funny. Even better is imagining Niko as a driving instructor. He'd put a gun to the student's head and tell them to drive, lol. I imagine he'd also teach them well in the fine art of dodging police in a pursuit, and shooting out the window accurately while driving at the same time. I wonder how many ramps and jumps are included in a typical driver training session with Niko? Andrew Ryan: Application accepted. Andrew starts on Monday. Hooh boy. Guess we all know how the city of Hull will meet its end.

      Dr. Mario always makes me think of my mom. It was the only game that she was better than me at, and probably still is, as I'm crap at puzzle games. I'll never forget seeing the ending to the game after she beat the last level on the highest difficulty and max speed.

      Anytime I play something from the N64 era. I never did homework in school, so I was constantly getting grounded from something. My mom's favorite punishment was "No Nintendo." Instead of taking the console or even the games, she would tell me to wrap up the controller and put it in her room. After a month or two, once my grades showed improvement, she would give the controller back. She had no clue that I had gone to the mall and bought a second controller. I would just play it until she got home, then unplug my controller and hide it in my room. It went on for years. I told her about it after I was a grown man, and she smacked me on the back of the head and called me a little shit. Ocarina of Time reminds me of her more than anything else. I was too young for a driver's license yet, so she picked up my preorder on her way home from work. Up to that point, and maybe still til this day, I had never had a more agonizing wait for a game. I was walking home from my friend's house down the street and she pulled up to give me a lift the rest of the way home. I opened the bag and couldn't believe I finally had the game in my hands. She died from pancreatic cancer. She bought this "Cancer Sucks" bracelet online a couple months before. I was holding her hand when she passed, and I slid the bracelet off her wrist and put it on mine. I've worn it every day since. That was over 4 years ago. People who don't know what it is sometimes give me shit about it for wearing a purple bracelet, but you can imagine how little that bothers me. Now that I have a son of my own, I have somewhat of an idea of everything she did for me. I wish she was still around so I could tell her how much I appreciate it. I remember thinking it was funny when she cried like a baby during our dance at my wedding. Now that I'm a parent, I think I'm beginning to understand. And I still can't hear that damn Rod Stewart song we danced to without getting choked up. When you're a kid, your parents are just these people who vanish for 8 hours of the day, then come home and feed you. You think they do it because they have to. Truth is, they don't have to. And many of them don't. If you're lucky enough to have one of the good ones, I hope you realize the full extent of what they've done for you before it's too late.

      I don't get the Avatar thing, myself. As for SFXT, that was just poor timing. What I really don't get on this list, though, is the inclusion of Ryo in Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing. Everywhere I was reading about the game, people were happy for his inclusion, but upset that he wasn't driving his forklift instead of the motorcycle. So SEGA went and made an extra version of the character where he's driving the forklift at all times, and even produced a limited-edition model based on him driving it in the game. Granted, they still wanted Shenmue 3, but I don't remember them being terribly upset just because he was featured here.

      I would like a third-person shooter, buddy cop game starring Han Solo and Chewbacca, Chewbacca being a by the books cop who gets stuck with the hotshot Han Solo, who doesn't play by the rules, after his previous partnered retired. It would also feature Admiral Akbar as the police chief who is always yelling at Han for his reckless ways. The plot would be that there have been assassinations of important political players and it is up to Han and Chewbacca to catch the assassin(s) and bring them to justice. Also, Chewy would be wearing full police uniform because when you are a cop you can't just walk around with no clothes on, this isn't Kashyyyk after all. Along the way we would see Han and Chewbacca's friendship grow strong because of what they have gone through together. There would also be Admiral Akbar in his office shouting to the heavens, "Soloooooooooooooo!" every time Solo go on his nerves.

      I would like to see one (or both) of these games made. First Republic Commando 2 by Danger Close. Second a fully fleshed out Star Wars RTS (made by Maxis) that spans Prequels, Original, and New trilogies. Think about a screen filled dozens (if not hundreds) of Wookies, Storm troopers and battle droids all running at each other. Boom!
