Yes. But nor does Big Bro have breasts, ans shown in a picture on that comic. And he also perfers male personal pronouns. |

Alright, if you ever have cherished memories of an old game, NEVER GO BACK AND REPLAY IT! I'm on mission 3 of Winback, and the truth has finally occured to me. This game sucks. Badly. It is the Mystic Quest of it's genre. It's like Metal Gear Solid, for dummies. The AI is atrocious ("Hey, look, my buddy just dropped two feet away from me. I better keep on my pre-planned route and ignore it, or the same might happen to me!"), the game can never decide if it wants to be a Shooting Game without the light gun, or a stealth game where you sneak around, ("Haha! You may have dispatched those two guards stealthily, but we are the Psychic Baddie Elite! We knew you were coming before you walked in the door, so now let's have a gun battle!"), the camera is your worst enemy ("Am I being attacked? Who's shooting me? Why am I looking at a box while my life goes down?!"), the story is contrived and predictable ("What? Terrorists have taken over one of the most powerful weapons on Earth? No, no, don't bother scrambling fighters or nuking them, just send in S.C.A.T. to deal with them, I'm sure it'll be fine." and also, "Wow, this place is really dangerous! If I survive this, I'm going to go back and become a better man! OH NOES, I DIED TEN SECONDS AFTER SAYING THAT! BLARG!"), and the one potential saving grace, the addition of voice actors? These people are horrible. HORRIBLE. None of them sound like a tough, hardened, elite group of commandos. Most of them are flat and monotone, none of them sound suited for their character, and one of them literally sounds like they recorded his voice over the phone! Just, just kill me, now, please. |

Uragh! Seriously, all you did was remake an N64 game on the PS2! The only thing you did was add voices, and spiff up the character models! Don't tell me you had to hire cheap-ass Voice Actors because of budget problems, you're just assholes! So, in the N64 version, the first boss was this woman with a gun bigger then she was, and a crazy, trademark laugh (One of the few voice sound bytes in the first game). She wields her huge gun like it's made of feathers, shoots up the place like a maniac, and takes a lot of hits before she drops. Apparently one guy asked another, "Hey, who should be get as a voice actor for this character?" Then the first guy hit the second in the head with a shovel. Then the second guy promptly said, "Obviously she needs to sound like a peppy teenage cheerleader with a southern accent she's trying to hide." The first man said, "Brilliant!" And that is how I died a little on the inside. I bought this game, damnit, so I'm going to keep playing it and reviewing it, no matter HOW awful... |

God of war should be called God of Not Loading on your PS2. I rented it from blockbusters, and when i got it home it didn't run. it was full of scratches. tiny circular scratches. fair enuff, thats not really the games fault, unless you take into consideration the following. the second disk I rented didn't work on my PS2 so I borrowed a friends. It ran, I got through the first 2 levels fine, then I hit a loading area. It would not load under any circumstances. so what I think happened is that the first person to rent the game got to the same place i did, and tried wiping the cd off on there shirt to get it to load. causing the scratches. so, Beware. this game will most likly not run on your PS2. |

KILL. Eternal Darkness is skipping during the cutscenes. It just started. But Gamestop only has a return policy on opened games that extends to one week. KILL. I will be calmly exchanging my disc, which looks cracked, when I can get back to Gamestop. KILL. And yes, E3 does look like a good time. Especially the Nintendo booth. |

Nintendo (and by definition, new Zelda) is nice, but.... I'd pay the admission just to see the (hopefully) new KH2 trailer.... |

It will be leaked online by the end of the first day. Seeing a trailer in person is nice, but still. Playable version of LoZII! |

The New York Times today says that the Revolution will "play gamecube cames as well as a new high deffinition type, and will focus on online gaming" "It will also be sleek. Very sleek." . It won't be unique enough. People will think of it as a weaker X-box 360. Can someone make a picture of a graveyard with a sign saying "video game graveyard", and two gravestones, one labeled Nintendo, with a Mario statue on it, and one labeled Sega, with a sonic statue on it? I tried, and my attempt looks like something a dog would throw up. |

Nintendo has something Microsoft does not: Game quality. They aren't #1 in the current Console War, but I definitly don't think they are out of it yet... |

I'mjust afraid the new strategy will scare the kiddies away, and Nintendo will go the way of SEGA without the monetary support of the lowest age group. |
