I think I have to say Bioshock 2. That multiplayer sounds bitchin. And I am still a sucker for the Ayn Rand lite story. Everyone ought to want to be a Big Daddy :) (technoethical egoism)

Gotta be Iron Swan by The Sword. I LOVE VIKING METAL!

I thought it was an excellent movie. If it can get my fiancee to like sci-fi.... I just think as a movie, a 2 and a half hour story telling session, keeping one engaged in the story and interested in the characters, it succeeds. Not the best thing I've ever seen, sure, but I'm really hoping THAT...

I just had a moment due to Ting's post. In this moment, I realized that I kinda like Depeche Mode. Not necessarily a fan or anything, but approving. When I mustered the courage (conviction?) to tell my fiance she says, "Umm..." so I, altruistically it seemed at the time, to sing a few lines to...

curmudgeon. Humbug!

Any Metal Slug game. I hadn't played number 3 until a few weeks ago when my 360 broke and I "borrowed" my friend's original Xbox. Really is amazing: the music, the art direction, everything. But as for really classic? I found the first Alone in the Dark game as abandonware. First game that...

Miak's going to hell because in the 90's he totally voted Brotherhood of Nod. I'm going to hell for trying to explain why I am always on GR's forums to my fiance.

As I was reading I kept thinking of games that DID age well-for me at least. Tomba I would still play. And the original Contra I bought on the Wii literally made me start smoking again, but I love it. Something about the unforgiving nature of those games with no auto save, or any save, for that...

O.k., I've got one that goes way back. It was on my dad's Apple IIe that I worshipped when I was about 8 years old. Aside from the text-based adventures that were a little over my head and the winter olympics game that I vaporized by turning off the power while playing, there was a game that...

Maybe just avoid things like "THEY say" and "THEY seem to think"..... not to preach racial sensitivity or anything.... generalizations don't really support your argument of "I've been in the shit, lived with the ****er's, and let me tell ya, this is how it is" type argument.

Quite ridiculous. I can't help feeling like racism goes both ways in this instance. Keeping tabs on how many people of one color are in the game or implying that there is a connection between the race of the protagonist and that of the enemies in the game feels kinda racist to me. I play a game...

Oh man... They should start putting other races in WWII games, cuz I'm getting mighty offended that all the nazis I kill are the same color as me. Oh wait.... they did that in COD: World at War. I went to fight the japanese in the pacific. Buuuuuuuut....... I could'nt help noticing they were all...

I dropped all brand loyalty when I had to buy a Gamecube to get the (then) new Resident Evils.... (and then wondered why I did)
