V1L3 commented on The BBC Tackles Wii Fit Fat Kids, at 5:59 PM on May 21 It'd be one thing if the BMI measurement were an optional feature, but it FORCES you to do the test before letting you play the game. more »

V1L3 commented on Burnout Paradise PC In Ultra Widescreen, at 10:47 PM on May 9 @mva5580: You also have to phone the car dealership once a week to get permission to drive your Ferrari. Many Ferrari's won't be able to use every type of fuel without having some work done to the engine. And fewer and fewer gas stations will stock the only type of fuel you can use in a Ferrari, because people keep driving off without paying. more »

V1L3 commented on Gore Verbinski Making BioShock Movie, at 10:26 PM on May 8 Bioshock - Yes. Portal - Not seeing it. I'm starting to get really tired of people saying that there should NEVER be a movie based on a game, because they've always been bad in the past. That's merely symptomatic of the film adaptions not being taken seriously and handed off to a moron who has no idea how to make a good film. If someone can reference for me a bad video game-to-movie adaption that was produced and/or directed by someone even remotely competent, I'll change my vote. There are plenty of lousy book-to-movie (Da Vinci Code) or comic book-to-movie (Daredevil) adaptions too, but hand the reins to the right person, and they can be fantastic. As for those calling for the end of movie-to-game adaptions, are you really going to boycott: Star Wars: Force Unleashed Ghostbusters LEGO Indiana Jones LEGO Batman ? more »

V1L3 commented on BBFC Says MGS4 Has "Implied Child Rape" [Updated], at 11:55 PM on Apr 22 I humbly suggest a few of the commenters go back and read the story a little more carefully. This isn't taken from a sensationalist article by the press; this is a BBFC report detailing the details of the game and addressing any violent/sexual content in context to justify the rating they gave it. As you can see, it appears that nothing has been called out as being inappropriate, and there are no complaints being raised. I'm not sure whether the ESRB releases any such information, but if it doesn't, it should. more »

V1L3 commented on Yet Another Girl Touching DS Game, at 6:37 PM on Apr 22 What I'd love to see is someone playing the game, prodding the alien girl with the stylus, causing her to gasp and say "No, don't touch me there!" So of course, you continue (Anime Lesson #1 - "Don't" means "I don't like it NOW, but I will later!"). Then, all of a sudden, her skin is torn from her body, revealing the huge, glistening carapace and drooling mandibles of her true form. more »

V1L3 commented on Kiwi GTA Modder Might Face Real Cops, at 6:35 PM on Apr 20 Boy, I sure do wish I lived in a country like the US, where people don't complain about games like Grand Theft Auto, and where the use of a trademarked logo doesn't result in frivalous lawsuits. And as an added bonus, I could rest easy knowing that the games I can and can't play weren't decided by my government....... more »
