I got dibs on the noobs. Very nice piece. I love seeing a newcomer experience the world of StarCraft and love it. Just shows that the game is just that good.
I figured they'd make something like this. Not that it's a bad thing because this is the kind of game that will appeal to the much younger crowd and parents procrastinating what to buy their kids. I think, even though the hardcore is included in the Move's crowd of gamers to attract, the casual crowd needs something to work with. Games like these will definitely play somewhat of role in the success of the Move when being aimed at the large population of both casual and hardcore ga...
StarCraft, imo, is probably the best RTS out there. There are others that are amazing (Company of Heroes, Dawn of War, etc.), but SC is the RTS game that pushed its genre beyond LAN parties and made it an international competitive success. Playing SCII only reaffirmed that Blizzard knows what they're doing when it comes to making games.
Wonder why people would even question that Naughty Dog would go Multiplat. Since the very beginning, they've released their well-known IPs on Sony's consoles. I highly doubt that with the success they're getting, and as loyal as they seem to be, they'll go anywhere. People need to seriously stop dreaming so much.
Agreed. Honestly, I'm a bit surprised that MLG (or Capcom/Namco at that) didn't push to have fighters part of the league since it is very much so a competitive genre that hold tournaments throughout the world. Well, better late than never I say.

Maybe you should learn how to appropriately construct an English sentence before trying to insult. It's "your," not "you're," you aborted mutant.

Tekken has always been one of my favorite fighting franchises, along with those of SNK. It's good to see an article that talks about the evolution of the franchise.
Is there sexism? The majority of games, with the exception of a handful, have male protagonists. Some good games that I've played had female leads.
Buy it. The game is amazing.
After getting hands-on with connect, I must say that it isn't what some folks are making it out to be. Response? It's not 1:1, which kind of takes away from a fluid experience. Before I even consider getting the Kinect, Microsoft needs to showcase a game that I, as a *gamer* and not a casual plebeian, am attracted to. They have some nifty applications that will definitely grab the attention of the less-than-casual crowd, but nothing that gamers will deem purchase worthy.
So far, StarCraft II is amazing. It's refreshing to see newcomers positively take in the game. The campaign is amazing, the story is great, and the multiplayer is both challenging and entertaining. Loving it so far. Nice impressions
I've had the Logitech headset for the past 3 years. I paid $30 when it came out in the beginning - it's about $15 bucks now. I use it for both PC and PS3 gaming.
*PHONE RINGING*
Capdastaro: "Hello?"
June: "Hey, is this Capdstaro?"
Capdstaro: "Uh, yea. Who's this?"
June: "Oh, this is June calling you back. I left a message on your answering machine about an article that I want back...?"
Capdstaro: "Oh, hey! Sorry I wasn't able to answer the phone. I was busy on N4G gettin' my hate on! Hahaha. Just kiddin'. I ...
I also agree that Nintendo won this year's E3. I called it before hand as well.

I'm 27 years old and I DO want to play Zelda and Kirby. My question to people like you is this: How do you define "hardcore"? How can you establish that franchises as old, respected and wanted as Kirby and Zelda aren't part of the "hardcore" genre? A game that has an well established community of followers - regardless of the genre - I wo...
Brings back? I still stay up late when I can to play insane amounts of games. Right now, StarCraft II is doing this for me. LOL Have had a bunch of playtime with it and, I must say, it is a gem.
I feel that when a game gives you that continuous urge to play the game for hours on end, it's doing its job. There's nothing like a good game that sucks you in.
Been playing the campaign (and some multiplayer), and I must say that it is definitely game of the year, so far, in my book. Again, like always, Blizzard didn't disappoint. For those of you contemplating whether or not this game is worth getting, I have one word and four syllables for you: ABSOLUTELY!
That said, good first impressions. Review is coming ;)
I LIKED the series. Wouldn't say I "loved" it too much. lol. There IS one game, though, that I would love to be revealed: Another House of the Dead game. I always loved THOSE games. But, I can see why you like Time Crisis, though. It's fun as hell - my only issue is that it felt like I was getting karpaltunnel after a bunch of shooting. Probably is the reason I don't "love" the game - damn horrifying flashbacks.
Time Crisis was awesome, I thought. It's good to see that, off the bat, the Move is supporting titles that generates the interest of all kinds of gamers. The fact that this game comes with so much fun (bunch of Time Crisis games) is also a plus. Its also cool that the game also supports the gun peripheral aside from the Move.
Split-Screen co-op with the Move is definitely great. Can't wait to see what else the Move comes out with.
I'm a fan of both games. If I had to choose between the two, though, I won't be able to. Only because both games, I feel, will have a very intriguing third chapter that left my mouth watering from the previous ones. It's good to see GG have a competitive, yet mature, mindset with regards to Epic Games (their competition). But I think both games will be awesome when the time comes.
I agree and disagree. There are a lot of other titles besides 007 that are coming this fall which will make use of the Wii. 007, though, IS one of them. I can't wait to actually play it - been a fan of the game and its multiplayer since N64.
