@Killer Toilet: MS was the publisher of Ninja Gaiden 2.

Super 8?

"Gears 3's difficulty will also be scaled back, Epic claiming around 60% of players never bothering to finish the last game."

@wild homes loves you but chooses darkness!: "Winner in this instance: everyone who wakes up tomorrow and isn't you."

@JediPeteSolo: It wasn't only Space Paranoids. The world shown in Tron ("on the other side of the screen") is an entire "electronic micro-civilisation" based on all the computer hardware in the world, and populated by every piece of software ever written. It is true however that the "Recognizer" aerial craft come from…

"When I was six this was the bestest movie ever."

"Hollywood has tried for years to make a good movie based on a video game, and failed."

@MacGyver1138: Personally I've always believed that they are genetically engineered, since some of their traits - like the ability to operate in a hard vacuum when necessary - would be unlikely to emerge in a species evolving on an actual planet, but would be highly desirable in a biological weapon. The ship featured…

@tok1879: This month's NPD figures would seem to disagree with you - and that's just in the US, the very heartland of the Xbox360.

@Ants_Pai: Apparently, whilst you can indeed gradually power up your sword to ludicrous levels, it only maintains the huge size whilst you are at full health. It's also apparently quite difficult to maintain full health even with a blade the size of a barn.

Ah, it's a special time when a new group of commentators earn their stars. Some good stuff here - funny, insightful. I need to be more pro-active in recommending others in future.

@Witzbold: Something like Demon's Souls, perhaps? Essentially a single player experience, but with some limited element of interaction with other players?

Impressive. That's a whole lot of kids pocket money.

@Asbestos_Underwear: Unless, of course, it's a Sony MMO.

"Can you please ensure Toby's article reflects this - he needs to respect the huge achievement he's writing about here."

@超外人: Not necessarily. You could commit a "hate crime" against someone based on hating their sexual orientation, religious beliefs or even the logo on their t-shirt. Race doesn't have to be a factor. Your victim could be of the same race as yourself.

@maraxusofk: I believe Avenue Q puts it best:

@Sodrohu: No school like the old school :)

@TheDeadTexan: Quite. It's a pity that they haven't completely removed pornography from their culture like the West...

@Komrade Kayce: It's well worth your time. I had a lot of fun with it, perhaps in part because I decided to play as a merciless evil killing machine brutally crushing enemies and civilians alike. I've never really done this in other games with a morality system, and whilst many would cite the fact that you need to go…
