Batman's discussions

@WhoKnew?: Mod'd to do what? I don't consider using an ergonomic mouse cheating even though it gives you a definite advantage over people just using a basic one. Read more

@RockyRan: The worst part about reviewers is that they don't even maintain integrity in their review systems. Scores creep higher every year because they don't want to offend someone. Read more

@Cursed Frogurt: The gameplay was good, but it wasn't even the first game with a rewind or freeze time mechanic. It was fun and pretty, but not really unique. Read more

@Squizzy: Madlibs. Read more

@GamerKT: It's intentionally a divisive word, it's supposed to divide high-brow from low-brow. As much as I don't like the attitude in any media (comics/graphic novels or books/literature), sometimes there is a clear difference between the two. I even think some creators are more comfortable in one role or the other.… Read more

@FokisMoney: Maybe it should be a subgenre, but it seems like shooter without them have practically disappeared. Games without them can have teamplay oriented play too, like Assault/Onslaught mode in UT. But I suppose I can see where it leads to more of a defense/ offense situation. Read more

@darthvolta: I read the interviews with that doucher before I played it, but I still wouldn't have liked the writing. The art and gameplay is solid, but the story is just not. Read more

@cushenstein: Games are slicker and more corporate these days which makes them less unique. Sometimes I feel like I'm frustrated with a genre, not an individual game. Also, as good studios shut down, voices have become less distinct. Shiny, Looking Glass, and Black Isle are excellent examples. The people go on to… Read more

Just finished Braid yesterday. Honestly I think it would have been better without any writing at all. Read more

@SunyiNyufi: Absolutely. I hate when you have to press Start to get to the menu screen. Why? What does that do for the game? Read more

@Smooth JA: You forgot step 5- The game is seen as a classic ten years from now. Read more

@TestZero: It's good enough, but I don't think perfect fits the bill. Read more

Here's my list: Read more

@Timstuff: To be fair we're just getting out of the early phases of the technology. Early films like silent movies were largely rendered obsolete by new technology. Even earlier films than those were rendered obsolete by full length movies with stories. How packed would a theater be today if they released Man… Read more

@nerdrage32: Just played Braid and that game oozes pretension out the core. Read more

This kind of seems like a waste. I wish they had taken Spore and added more in each mode. Read more

I love the hell out of magic. It's sad to go back and look at my old, useless cards. Besides some broken sorceries and enchantments, my cards are pretty much useless against the new premade decks. Read more

@tuesday: How is this different than the use of a custom UI in PVP or PVE? It gives you a definite advantage and relies on advanced knowledge of the game. Macros are similar. Not everyone uses them, but they give you a huge advantage that relies on a degree of automation. I get why Blizzard doesn't want them, but… Read more

@stae60: Someone who sells a frame for a picture is making money off of the original artists work. I don't see how the program prevents other people from enjoying World of Warcraft, it exists solely to enhance the experience of the user who buys it. Read more

@Platypus Man: They're both d-bags. Someone that cries after getting a video game console is probably a d-bag. Read more
