"It's called enslaving African tribes, we've been doing it for a while so you don't have to do all those icky chores you would otherwise have had to do." Just because people did it once, doesn't automatically make it okay. Just because people still do it, doesn't make it okay. You might think so, but I obviously…

@TheHeartless: Amen, brotha.

I LOVE post-apocalyptic themes, but I'm so sick of all these barren dystopian atmospheres and art designs. As others have said - this is the way I like to think of our post-apocalyptic future. Nature triumphant. Beautiful lush forestry overtaking the cold grey landscapes. Flowers bursting from gravel that has been…

@MacGyver1138: I thought about that while posting the comment - how hypocritical it is. And you know, I don't really have an answer for why I don't have a problem with shooting/maiming/killing humans but can't stomach the thought of injuring an animal. To be honest, I just like animals a lot more than people. Humans…

I was contemplating purchasing this game, but killing real-world animals and in some cases being rewarded for it? Sorry, I think that's pretty fucked up. This game is a no-go for me.

+1 for Little Big Adventure love. And Alone in the Dark love too, I guess! But Little Big Adventure especially (2 was my fave). I think I'll go play it now!~

Co-op strategy-RPG puzzler?! Where have you been all my life?!

@Chester Coat Sleaves: It's pretty likely where you live is just as twisted and weird, you're just used to it or are aware that the good outweighs the bad so don't find it as big a deal. I've been to a lot of countries and all of them truly do have their pros and cons, some places do have a clear raise in quality of…

I never really got the appeal Bayonetta was supposed to have. All the 'omgwomanobjectification' discussion aside, I just never heard anything that really endeared me to the game. To top it off, I played the demo, and it just seemed like a button-mash fest to me. While I enjoy 'fighter' games, I like more gameplay…

@ExistentialEgg: Yeah the whole thing sounds fishy to me. Hug your daughter? Take people by the hand? If I'm evil I wanna push my daughter down to the ground, I wanna drag civilians by the scruffs of their necks while they kick and scream.

@ExistentialEgg: I'm confused - does that mean the game will always choose 'the right action'? No opportunity to experiment? I thought the Fable games were all about choices. Well, supposed to be.

@OmegaSpartan08: If Natal isn't marked at a ridiculous price point, I'll be picking it up on day one and will be glad to play Fable 3 in conjunction with it. Of course, if Natal isn't marked at a fair price, I'll be pretty pissed about the whole thing.

'Halo couples' are a lot more common than people think. Halo has many thriving communities that meet up on a regular basis, so there are plenty of opportunities for gamer romances to bloom. I met my partner through Halo 2, and we've been together almost five years now (he moved from the US to Australia to live with…

Argh! Those dead eyes...

I haven't truly liked a single one of the bands/artists picked for a third-party music game. I'm constantly surprised at how many people must buy these (Aerosmith, Metallica, etc), since they keep releasing more. But yeah... I guess that's what I get for enjoying modern, typically indie acts.

@fuchikoma: Indeed. Which is why, when reduced down to the simplest equation, the entire concept of objectification is redundant.

I'm in almost complete agreement with Ron Jeremy, barring the fact that playing violent video games suggest an increase in actual physical violence.

@vidhagans: I'm a female, and I generally think the concept of 'female objectification' is a load of bullshit. I really don't get it, especially what all the fuss is about women in video games. Sure, most females in video games are hot. I'm glad. I'd much rather look at a pretty face, call me shallow. Most of them…

@Win Laik Pya: In fairness, I do live in a relatively backwater hick-town. Mullets are not a rarity.

As others have said, I'm in the camp that believes, despite the fact that the man was the enabler for thousands of subsequent downloads, that the punishment is disproportionate to the crime. While yes, Nintendo has lost sales because of this (likely far fewer than most of the people on the other side of the camp think…
