ok, and I play sex in real life and on a video game
yes, we see what you did there. the logic doesn't hold up though.
otherwise throw out the sports genre of video games entirely. after all, sports is something I do in real life not a video game.
"in order for society to truly accept sex in video games, then it has to be handled delicately and maturely"
you mean, like how it's always handled delicately and maturely in film and the other already-accepted media?

"If sex became a common theme in video games, then Adults Only ratings would be more commonplace and those same people would finger games for sex related crimes if they had the chance."

"Decent points, huh? No true thesis? You do realize I'm not writing an English paper, right? I'm pretty sure I made my point consistent throughout."
you're trying to have it both ways. don't put so much obvious effort into an extended blog post, even asking for our feedback, and then pretend you don't care.
your point was not 'pretty consistent throughout'. it wasn't until the last paragraph or 2 that it became poss...

2 problems:
One. this isn't duke nukem. never say never, Mr Saddiqui, because things change. in another year gearbox may be comprised of a lot of new talent, not the same team that fashioned a duke chapter around female genital mutilation.
Two. you accuse gearbox of outright misogyny for its own sake, when I think it's more likely just a matter of poor taste. I can easily see management encouraging their devs to go 'over the top' and take duke ...
sorry for the disagree but it's not a review. and while I understand the concept of not wanting to give hits, how can we comment intelligently without reading the articles in question?

dude... I think you forgot Bio Infinite
glad you're psyched for new sony box (heh, box).
just wanted to caution you about this part: "they won me over this gen so next gen they have my support also."
because last gen MS won me over with a more powerful machine that catered to the hardcore crowd and with exclusives like KOTOR, Fable, Halo and Morrowind. this gen they took me for a ride.
not saying sony has given good reason to doubt them. just saying a little health...
@bunt-custardly: exactly. to paraphrase Samuel Clemens, "censorship is like saying I can't eat steak because an infant wouldn't enjoy it"
glad I decided not to purchase this. this is one ending I don't mind having spoiled.
@BiggsnWedge - I lol'd. but still go frak yourself.
basically the same thing, "reward" was just a milder way of saying it.
we already know how online-focused MS are. they've expressed they see it as the future with an eventual discless format. they've already been digging their claws in via the XBL fee. and all the dashboard/XBL updates serve not just to market XBL thru differentiation (vs PSN) but also to keep those subscriptions active and growing.
and, though of course they'd ne...
no need! there are already existing sales models that reward the purchase of a new video game: restricted DLC, online multiplayer passes...
*gasp* a bethesda game made this list? say it ain't so!
I sure am enjoying it, though.
Happy Pagan Holiday to All!! Remember where 'Christmas' REALLY came from!
I was disappointed to see in a different trailer that it's a new voice actor for anti-hero Jackie Estacado. but, since Mike Patton was at Comic-Con with Top Cow I guess the best part of the original is back!
hello there, phantom disagreer. So I take it you're saying, "Achievement points aren't worth a second thought?" (don't get mad at me for guessing, you didn't bother to comment). To which I say:
We are both men of gaming. Lies do not become us.
seriously? six character classes, different difficulty settings, conversation trees, morality rankings, romance subplots and dozens of star clusters to explore aren't enough?
I see Singularity getting a lot of credit for story.
Singularity's story/plot twists were contrived, uninteresting and poorly thought out.
I have never played any of the CODs ever.
