In a sense the growing popularity of gaming has lead to fewer high quality games in terms of innovation and depth. Graphics improve, because as a visceral attribute they can be judged solely on looks while gameplay either becomes repetitive or overly familiar. Furthermore, the cost of production leads to less risk taking on the part of the developers, causing familiar traits to appear in different games.

High quality games still exist and are still being made, but it has beco...

I didn't know Christian Bale was using the Batman voice for Jensen.

As for Tish, she's digging through garbage and you have the option to give her a beer for information. She's poor and probably uneducated. Had they decided to make the character white she could have been portrayed in a very similar way. For anyone thinking she's a stereotype, take a walk through a city (preferably a large one) and you'll hear people who talk like her, but not all of them w...

It hasn't been announced for any platform yet, but considering the fact that Catherine was on both and the new P4 fighter will be on both P5 will probably be multiplatform too.

As much as I'd like to hear more about FFvsXIII has anyone noticed that another big SE title hasn't been heard from either? Dragon Quest X if you were wondering.

It was a "Let's Play" video of the user playing through Deus Ex. All video was recorded by him with his commentary. Videos from IGN and most large gaming sites usually have a watermark-like image of the sites logo in the bottom corner of the video.

I think everyone would side with SE/Eidos on this one. Especially since the video IGN is claiming the copyright of is from a game that they spent their money to make, not to mention the fact that IGN had absolutely nothing to do with it being released. It would be equivalent to Ebert and Roeper copyrighting the video of a movie someone reviews on YouTube.

Play whatever games you want this September. If you can't make your own decision on what you should or shouldn't play you might as well ask the guys at GameStop. I'm sure they'd be happy to recommend you pick up Gears of War 3 for your PS3.

I'm not defending GameStop, but I didn't know OnLive was that popular. I thought it was on the verge of disappearing anyway.

I'd have to disagree with you on Twin Snakes. Sure, the graphics were improved, but the voice acting wasn't as good and the cut-scenes were too over the top. I wanted to like it better than the original, but it didn't seem to take itself as seriously.

You could have used the item duplication glitch.

Hopefully this will be the last we hear of FemShep until her trailer comes out, but I won't be surprised if we soon see an article like "Why redhead FemShep is an insult to female gamers by Mary Ann Summers" or something similar.

Pretty good article, although I disagree that the M rating hurt the Persona series. Also, in Persona 4 they don't shoot themselves in the head with their evokers, they use cards to summon their Persona instead.

There were a lot of grammatical errors in this post, and the transition from your main view to your background in video games was kind of rough too, although I can see why you'd mention it.

As to the topic, I don't know why anyone would care that games that have already been out for as long as MGS2 and 3 have are now going to be available for the Xbox360. Peace Walker is a nice bonus, but people who have both the PSP game and choose to buy this HD collection for the P...

He was the voice of a lot more characters than just that, not surprisingly.

Maybe they'll do a reversal with their other series and we'll get Mass Effect: Origins. Who's ready to play the Vorcha Drone origin story?

This is why I think one of the most underrated games this gen is Way of the Samurai 3. It has a lot of depth, but it can be beaten in a very short period of time. However, there are multiple endings, a lot of different weapons, costumes, and a few mini-games too. It can get a little repetitive after awhile, but it's a fun game to go back to from time to time.

Edit: Not that I don't like long games, or haven't finished any for that matter, but sometimes it's ni...

HD Remake like the PSP Monster Hunter perhaps? That's one way to get it back on the PS3.

Interesting how a lot of people supporting this are just as immature if not more so than the people who are against it, although there are a few intelligent conversations going on about it so I suppose all hope is not lost.

DA:O had Zevran and it wasn't a big deal, and as stated this option was in Fable too. As was said by DaTruth in an earlier comment, your copy of Skyrim will be your own personal world in which you can do as you please.

I don't understand what the big deal is. Compared to a lot of other games she actually looks pretty close to how High School cheerleaders are usually portrayed. It seems to me like this game breaks stereotypes, the preppy cheerleader who is usually fawning over the star quarterback is killing zombies instead. Are feminists really that hypocritical that a woman empowered is less significant because she's "popular" or "attractive"?

It has already been admitted that Microsoft's involvement with multiplatform games limits their ability to take advantage of another console's strengths, so yes FFXIII would have at least had more to offer had it remained an exclusive. If FFvXIII goes multiplatform it will be compromised too, so I'd rather have a game that is as close to what is intended as possible rather than give a "game journalist", using the term very loosely, a few laughs about something he is obvi...
