Of course it's video games to blame.
It's never the sugar filled crap they feed their kids, nor the fact that there was unsecured gun in the premises.
Nope, video games. Always video games.
Say what you will about CoD, but the series is being unfairly targeted by 'concerned mothers' and others, who are too lazy to take an interest in their own children and are quick to blame everyone else for their own shortcomings.

Violence is in the eye of the beholder.
In my eyes Mario is violent: He's a dangerous sociopath who kills the local populace, destroys the infrastructure, and monopolizes the gold reserves, all to save one girl.
That's it?
No Deus Ex
No KOTOR
No Spec Ops the line
No Red Dead Redemption
No Warcraft 3
No Ico
Not to mention the others. This is more of a random list then a top list.
I'm not surprised they aren't attending, E3 has a three in it.
Gabe needs some counseling to overcome his Triskaphobia.
Bring back Commander Keen!
Thumbs up to the guy for speaking out.
I could imagine this poor sap was once like every dev at the start of their careers, who wanted to shake things up and make innovative games.
But now he, amongst others, had to work 925 on projects that have no innovation whatsoever.
That's the CoD effect for you, quite a few FPS publishers now are focused on emulating CoD's financial success, rather than branching out and doing something differe...
You're never too old to pick up a controller.
I've played co-op on halo reach with my 55 year old neighbor. He loved it.
I've been playing video games for 25 years, and I will be gaming for the next 25 years.
What about Michael Shapiro as G-Man?
He spoke less than ten minutes of dialogue in the last three Half life titles and yet he's still one of most memorable characters ever. He definitely deserves a spot on that list .
I would also include Fred Tatasciore, who voiced Saren from ME1 and Damon Baird from the gears games.
I have to agree with Lost Odyssey and Condemned, bring on condemned 3 I say.
Now we wait for the inevitable 'most overrated games'
list. And I think we all know who will be the first nominees...
All gamers are good lovers.
We always press the right buttons, We're good with our hands, and when the game is over, we're always willing to play again.
This is a good, honest article.
After Jeff Gerstmann got sacked, writers at some sites would probably fear for their jobs if they scored a game poorly, since a couple of these sites have ties to the publishers whose games they review.
That's why some sites score a game lower than others, because the don't have publishers hanging over them, and are free to give their honest opinion.
I agree with the first point, achievements for completing levels and campaigns are unnecessary.
I like the achievements that actually set the bar higher for the player, such as ones that requires a player to finish a level using certain weapons, without dying, or killing X amount of Y,etc.
Two words: Roman Bellic
JC2 was one of my favourite games this gen.
The grappling hook has to return for JC3, that's a no brainer. I wasted so many hours finding new ways to fling soldiers all over the place.
It would be great if a stealth element was added to the gameplay as well.
Why can't we have both?
Agreed,I was just thinking Battletoads needs to make a comeback.
IMO it should be public demand that helps determine what games should be rebooted.
Personally I'd love to see reboots of Rogue squadron, Extreme-G, Commander Keen, and Tyrian.
If it is indeed real, it's almost identical to the BF3 cover art.
Why do all these Military shooters have such uninspiring cover art? Probably because they spend all their budget on graphics.
I'm glad the movie isn't happening.
The best way to enjoy bioshock is with a controller in your hand, no director on earth could reproduce the experience that you get with the game.
What a silly prediction. This writer must be channeling Michael Pachter.
It's safe to assume PS3 owners will go with PS4, and it's probable some xbox owners that could switch to PS4 if the nextbox proves to be lackluster.
Not to mention possible disenfranchised Nintendo owners as well, who could switch IF the Wii-U doesn't provide the games. Let's not forget the Lifespan of the PS4 could be longer than PS3.
Everything's co...
The whole cast of blue dragon is unlikeable.
