That is some pedigree behind this book, I'll definitely check it out. I love the lore behind games, which is part of the reason I enjoyed WoW so much. Read more

@no computers in texas: Flower, Demon's souls, Pixeljunk Shooter+Eden, Arkham Asylum I can vouch for (probably in that order). Read more

@HowIsYourFlat: While I'm here, does anyone have any tips for taking down Maneater in NG+? It's all I've got left save Allant and it's the only thing I've found significantly harder. Read more

@Gh0stKiller: Yeah, I think it's weird to say he's irrelevant when Em himself acknowledges on his album that he's got a lot of ground to claw back and picks Weezy and Kanye as the guys he needs to take the crown back from. Read more

@Toshi: I think your characters don't get tired until you leave Tartarus now (as in, not mid-dungeon crawl). Didn't they introduce a higher difficulty level? Looking forward to picking up P3P soon! Read more

@icarus212001: Not a Weezy fan? I'd only heard him on Barry Bonds in Kanye's Graduation before, so wasn't that bothered to hear him pop up on Recovery. Read more

@Munkleton: You're well served by having close combat and ranged options, yeah. Read more

100 days ain't all that long, I'm on something like 90~ on my main character alone. He probably means 1000 days, which is a lot. Read more

Of course the vast majority of people are going to continue acting the same way. Just because someone knows your name doesn't mean that you suddenly have to fear repercussions for your actions online. Read more

@Brian Crecente: Yeah, this'll prove helpful I think. I remember the post that got Dean unstarred was in TAY, because there wasn't really anywhere better to put it. Read more

Doubtless dozens of people are going to call for the restarring of Deanb - let me be one of the first. Read more

Sounds great; Borderlands Second Wind mechanic is good fun, as is L4D's down mechanic. No more faffing around asking LFM tank + healer, and I do love taking risks. Read more

@wild homes loves you but chooses darkness!: For me it meant I ended up sticking with upper left "Boyscout" dialogue until I got to know the responses better. It wasn't much fun coming across as sociopath when I wanted to merely be reprimanding. Read more

As long as they have the VAs actually say what the choices on screen are, I imagine you'll feel just as attached to this character as you did your DA:O one. Read more

@Soliloquy: It certainly adds depth; I'll take your word for it that the added complexity is more fun than it is frustrating. Read more

@Soliloquy: And FF13 proved that it is remarkably tedious and unnecessary. Read more

Cover based action RPG? Nice. All that "break!" and suchlike is a little worrying though. Let's just beat enemies by pounding the snot out of em, eh? Read more

Vice City remains the only GTA game I have played, so it is my favourite by default! K-Chat and Pastor Richards, you rock my world. Read more

@Nethlem: If I want to join a US game while living in Europe, that's my prerogative. I have friends abroad that I often play WC3 with, but guess SC2 won't be any good for that. Read more

What's the deal with this game? Is it still region locked for some asinine reason? Cos odds are I'll not be getting it til that shit gets patched out. Read more
