I still have a really hard time playing Pinball FX 2 because the physics are just so floaty compared to the first one. Having worked on the pinball simulation UltraPin I got lot's of hands on experience with actual tables, and while I admire the player friendly philosophy of Mr. Sorens with respect to table layout…

%99? I'm actually really, really curious as to how many of these characters would be undoubtedly look like porn stars. We celebrate characters like Lisbeth Salander from the Girl WIth The Dragon Tattoo, or Tina Fey, or the women of Uncharted. But it's really easy to see a good number of mostly naked characters and…

Although they never say the same kind of things to Batman, as Dr Nerdlove points out. Hmmmmmm... so confused

Arguably the behavior of the enemies in Arkham City are representative of low-level intelligence males who don't know how to talk to women, much like the behavior of trash talking dickwads on online services like Xbox Live, so therefore is it wrong that these characters we should not like, or emulate, are behaving in…

Ditto! Really well put. I don't like the male privilege, but his writing makes me feel like I'm being attacked for not agreeing wholeheartedly with his specific ideas.

Only thing that sucks is the overbearing tutorials.

Only downside is you need to beat level 109 (Murals 2, stage 1, "Sneaker") before you can even take the snapshot.

It's in the 3ds eshop for $5.99.

In fairness I call everyone whiny jerks. But Kotaku has the best whiny jerks. :)

Ha! I never said "Complaining." We just don't want to overlook our friends over the pond. ;)

Merry Switchmas!!!

It's pretty neat to see what this guy is saying. It's funny how fictional things can boil the blood of experts. Lawyers hate Law and Order, developers hate Grandma's Boy, etc.

Admittedly, without looking it up at this moment, not sure what the difference between similar and dissimilar are, but I think we are on the same page.

All in all I don't disagree that there is a "male privilege" in the gaming community, but is this really an issue with the gaming community as a whole or is it an intrinsic property of being a human which we need to keep in check? Looking at video games under the microscope might not show the broader picture of all…

I'm a little disappointed at Christopher's assumptions on the part of Volition in the development of the Saints Row series. It's a common theme these days for gamers writing in forums to spout off their interpretations of what developers did or didn't do and their thought process behind it, even though there is…

They lied to you to keep you safe. You have no idea the danger you were in that day, and how much it hurt them to do that to you, but it had to be done for the good... of everyone.

If you are looking for a fun little demolition derby game I recommend Mayhem. Its on 360 and PS3 and its probably pretty cheap now. Not bad for some cheap racing, smashing action.

Holiday Tree? "rabble rabble rabble" An attack on Christmas!!!

The other day my boss saw this graphic for Mario in the store, and it looked like he was smoking. So we decided to hunt it down and make it actually smoking. Enjoy!
