This is the most fun I've had with an FPS this year; Vaas is a truly terrifying antagonist.

But I completely abandoned the campaign after about 4 hours and now spend my time stalking through the jungle with my recurve bow, hopped up on hallucinogenic compounds crafted from the local flora that allow me to see prey using pheromones. Wild boar, komodo dragons, Aisian tapir, Sumatran tigers. Every animal allows an opportunity to improve your loadout capacity.

It's the little things that make a good game great.

Attention to detail can be marginalised when developers are working to strict deadlines or tight budgets.

But as with all creative/commercial output: quality doesn’t cost, it pays.

Sounds like the ultimate zombie survival sandbox experience for console gamers.

Congrats on hitting 40. You should grow a pony tail and buy a sports car.

I just bumped Rage further up my LoveFilm list.

Thanks for sharing. (",)

He obviously had an addictive personality, but his death may not necessarily be linked to his habit.

Sudden death syndrome can happen anywhere, anytime.

US National debt is currently $16.2 trillion and is increasing at a rate of around $4 billion per day.

Quite a depressing fact but I appreciate your levity of the situation. (",)

Some great points here.

I’ve always had a problem with the scoring systems prevalent in reviews these days. It’s the same for all media; it just adds to the tl:dr culture of apathy, where people place more emphasis on the number of stars than any of the content of a particular article. If I ever get around to having a blog, it will be absent of any scores.

It’s also disconcerting when you hear what some publishers do to garner praise from critics, lavish...

John McClane's got it covered; as someone who has come so close to death on so many occasions, I can certainly understand his motives. (",)
Die Hard 5 will be called Die Safe.

My gaming rig is perched next to my PS3, Xbox and Wii under the TV.

I'll definitely be checking this out. Thanks for heads up.

It surprises me that Sony isn't bundling the Vita with the new PS3 Super Slim.

Stick with DE:HR – the game shines once you start levelling up your augmentations.

Just got done reading the original review; I agree with everything you say – the message from WSJ seems to be “wait for Black Ops 2 / Halo4 “.

This particular review does seem to miss the mark, constantly referring to CoD and Halo4. It also has some rather uninformed blanket statements, most notably that every 2012 FPS needs a “rich multiplayer online mode”.

I can only assume that means competitive online play, so comparing a PvE co-op experience like Bor...

Thanks for sharing; I pumped countless hours into on Desert Strike as a kid.

I’ll be sure to sub your channel when I can get a decent YouTube app on iOS6.

Double Dragon is part of the Western Gaming Canon, beloved on arcade machines and home consoles for a quarter of a century. I still play the original 1990 GameBoy edition on my 3DS.

Rebooting it was always going to be tough; sadly I think they missed the mark.

The speed and pixel perfect manoeuvring may excite purists, but old timers like me will be instantly frustrated. Thankfully, it’s not bad enough to sully any memories of the title’s glory days.

Thanks for sharing.

I didn't spend much time with the original Borderlands, but the sequel has certainly enjoyed huge critical success.

Think I'll be picking this up shortly. I need a good co-op fix for my PS3, which has been neglected lately.
