It's a paradox. Gamers bitch and rant about the new look of Cole in Infamous 2 or the new pre-snap controls in Madden, developers cave to the pressure and undo the changes, then reviewers and players whine that they're just coughing out sequels without any innovation. Read more

@Damios: Skulls for Lord Santa!: You make a fantastic argument, but allow me continue to play devil's advocate. Read more

Twisted Pixel + Kinect? Sold. Read more

@Damios: Skulls for Lord Santa!: The fact that you and most other people can play games recreationally without addiction is great, but still doesn't prove that videgames can't be addictive. There's plenty of people who drink beers occasionally and function perfectly fine, while others become alcoholics and beat their… Read more

@Kovitlac: Actually, all retail boxed games add up 1000 points unless they have DLC, then it's 1250 or 1500. Read more

@Nibel: Was thinking the same thing. I swear, I honestly thought the image was a Photoshop someone made to goof on CoD players until I read the article. Read more

I've never put a porn DVD in my Xbox. Based on how Windows Media Player fetches title information over the Internet, I feel its none of Microsoft's business that I'm watching Horny Housewives 19 for the third time this week. Read more

@Chilli: Probably a few. I picture an elderly man in a monocle, staring at the damage with irritation while smoking a cigar. Read more

I don't understand why anyone would buy used fron Gamestop, since their used prices are only $3-5 dollars less than new. If 4 bucks is going to break you, you shouldn't be buying a videogame in the first place. Read more

@Laharl Krichevskoy: And upon further reflection, Devil May Cry was released in 2001 (ten years ago) and RE4 was 2005 (six years ago), both for the PS2. Read more

@Laharl Krichevskoy: I'll give you RE4 and DMC. Final Fantasy and Gran Turismo have been stagnant for years, with nothing but updated graphics- a perfect example of the rut Japan's game industry is in. Read more

Gee, and here I thought it was reading 45 day old "news" and a 1:3 content/advertisement ratio that made me hate MT, but it turns out to be untrue- it was those filthy, messy fonts all along. Read more

@AustrianGamerOfEternity: Well you're in luck, because this game is made by People Can Fly- Epic only published it. Read more
