"Nobody cried over a video game character's death." I think this is the phrase of an emotionally stunted individual.
I think it's wrong to count the Wii out just set: they've shown that they can and, indeed, have been breaking all the expectations surrounding them. Unless they do something amazingly dumb I think they'll hold their own very well this year.
2010 for the next episode of Half Life 2? That's...wow, I don't know what to call that. I know it's important to take your time with a game but that seems to be overkill.
As if the game needs to be any less cuter-or more marketable-then it is already. I'm really surprised about Rock Band, though...such a crippling flaw in such an anticipated game. Sad sad sad.
This is the time when the Xbox 360 has the chance to gain some ground on the PS3. It should be exciting to say the least.
It all comes back to the tenant that has become more prevalent in the gaming industry: multiplayer is not a magic mushroom for a video game. Dead Space is going to just fine with just the single player and, if you really want to play with a friend, you can share the controller.
I'm not into survival horror most of the time but I think this game has a lot to recommend itself. Offering 140 for the game is quite crazy though, yes, but it's not like their forcing people to pay that.
Pigpen became a memorable character and he was a dirty mess too. Why not Sackboy?
Well, the game does look like it's having a lot of work put into it to make sure it's smooth and seamless. Let's hope that hope is realized.
I think that LBP has a lot going for it: from what I've seen of the level and character design I think it's really a fresh new experience for the console. Makes me wish I had a PS3 to be honest with you.
Yeah, we did go from being a prince to a pauper this week in terms of number of games released. The Silent Hill release surprised me too...I didn't think they could take the series any further...but I guess they did. Hope it was worth it.
I like how going out on a date is followed by a suggestion to play Rock Band 2. Oooh, I can't handle these contrary messages.
I wonder what the success behind this game is...it's rare to see a game that results in such international interest unless it's a game that shocks everyone into wanting to ban it.
It seems that the Hollywood movie industry are optimists about their ability to make good movies out of video games...the only ones that have been good so far have been animated. That should tell them something.
It would be nice if it was free, but Microsoft is a corporation, so that's not going to happen...50 dollars for Xbox Live. Yes. Anyway, at least there's a discount going on.
Suppose they speed up the process on the trophies and they lead to some kind of problem with the game that meant it couldn't even be played until they hunted down the bugs and cleared up the problem? You offer me the trophies without the game or the game without the trophies and I'm taking the game. Besides, trophies are kind of like building a hotel in Monopoly: it's impressive in the context but doesn't mean much of anything besides that.
They usually offered a balanced opinion on the subject at hand: if things go wrong, well, they aren't mindreaders.
In terms of the article itself, though, I think it's strange that Microsoft comes out with new achievements for Halo 3 this late in the game. I mean, don't get me wrong, things that give fans reason to get back into the game are great but why didn't they add new achievements over time like they do with the maps?
I don't know: just seems odd to me.

I was uncertain about this being more along the lines of Black and White, but then I saw the dinosaurs, and I'm convinced it'll be cool.
I'm not sure whether this is just a cheap gag or a the result of depressingly on key market analysis. Either way it's weird.
I think it was always so, to be honest. People did, and still do, read books about people more wealthy and leaving more glamorous lives then they did. Video games are just a more graphical robust version of that coupled with a save feature which we could all make use of in real life.
