@Snow leopard: Get back to me when it's a Fleshlight. Read more

That pic of Lightning is amazing. Read more

@darkchipper07: Correlation doesn't always equal causation, but sometimes upon investigation it actually does. Read more

Thanks a lot Dr. Iritani- you just gave Syfy their next idea. Read more

@darkchipper07: You're posting on a game blog. Logic and the ability to notice the obvious is all I needed to know you have an affinity for games. So do I, which is why I post here. Read more

@TalbotAlligator: Re- reading my first reply, I realize I've done a poor job explaining my frustration. Read more

@TalbotAlligator: I'm simply pointing out the continuing hypocrisy of accusing anyone who criticizes gaming or it's possible negative effects as being biased, then turning around and praising as fair and accurate ONLY those who dismiss such studies as inaccurate. Read more

@darkchipper07: I've done no such thing. You need to remove your personal affinity for games from the equation so you can step back and look at it objectively. Read more

@RiderKick: I didn't compare it to heroin- I pointed out how flawed the popular argument used by people is. Read more

The last hour or so of Bayonetta was the most batshit insane and awesome thing I've seen in a game in ages. Read more

Since I'm apparently the only one who enjoyed XIII, I guess I'll go ahead and also be the only one to say "yay". Read more

They were too busy canoodling with EA brass and planning their big surprise exodus to focus on a coherent storyline or balanced gameplay. Read more

Correlation doesn't equal causation. I could just as easily release a study showing that Xbox 360 ownership rose during that same time period crashes declined, therefore "proving" that owning an Xbox 360 makes you a better driver. Read more

@chrismoke: Not me. I've already passed on Modern Warfare 2, and it really wasn't hard. I discovered some awesome indie and arcade games during the time everyone on my friend list was playing MW2, and I got 4 quality games instead of one for my $60. Read more
