iOS is quickly becoming my go-to gaming platform most of these days. I have time set aside for Tomb Raider and Bioshock, but those had to be planned well in advance.

Gotta agree, that's some strong SEO there

Man, I really need to work on my sarcasm. Sometimes subtle is too subtle :P

It's not too late to go back to consoles, you know. Think about it: you've had a long day at work/class/whatever, and you just need to unwind. I mean, you could go sit at a desk for *another* few hours and stare into yet another monitor. Or, you could plant yourself on your nice couch, prop your feet up on your…

Thanks for the article. The slow framerate in level one was driving me nuts, especially considering I just got a new graphics card for my rig.

I saw this earlier and I think "straight-up 90s" is also how I'd describe it. However it may try, it still can't replace the commercial for Link's Awakening in my heart.

This is, hands down, the most entertaining and captivating piece of writing I've read on a gaming enthusiast site in a long, long time.

Almost every single one of Patricia's articles have been carefully crafted pieces of bait, but for some reason I'm not feeling it with this one. There's definitely a representation problem and tech/science companies aren't doing enough to project a more diverse image and protect themselves from the inevitable…

I disagreed with your critique of lack of a female lead in the Gears of War series, but I'm with you on this one. Honestly, this did bug me a lot. As much as I feel companies like Sony and all of its third-party developers are faceless entities, I give them the benefit of the doubt in the sense that I would ASSUME…

I think the hardest part is that we haven't come to a definition as to what "next generation" is supposed to look like and we haven't trained our expectations to match the blurriness of that definition. Consider all of the graphical options that have become standardized, like hi-definition ambient occlusion and a…

Typically, the TF2 items do show up in the game later, but you either have to grind for them or pay money for each individual item. Hate to say it, but the pre-order is the quickest and most hassle-free method to get all these chotchkies.

There might've been some unintentional hubris in that statement, I agree with that, but I do think there's validity to the rest of Kirk's article. Even above-average reviews can make or break a high-profile game's success, especially in a period when a good amount of triple-A games are being released and the potential…

Oh yeah, when I called my grandmother during Spring Festival, I had to be extremely careful in the office and say the correct pronunciation (which no one does) of "na-ge". It was like if I said "you-aych" every time instead of "uh" in English. Awkward.

Great article, Luke. I'm totally there. When I was working in banking, I looked forward to new 1UP podcasts because that meant I had a entire slew of audio to entertain me while I crunched numbers. They became such treasured belongings that I started carefully rationing new podcasts to avoid blowing my figurative load…

I recently bought a house with my wife and I sold off eight long-boxes of comic books to a) help pay for furniture and b) free up space in our house. By doing so, I inadvertently set back the medium by about 20 years. My mom called us early in the morning screaming about how it was all over the news, and "what have…

No Harlem Shake. Fail.

Seinfeld was very funny. This is pretty much the opposite of funny.

I think it's just extremely unfunny because the use of Seinfeld characters feels so arbitrary and out of place.

Oh hell naw

nice
