And also just happen to be an amazing artist that can draw sprites or textures or make models for the game. I could program the crap out of a game, but it'd be inhabited by cubes of different colours sliding around a blank green map.

I've had similar issues even as a non-game software developer. Hired on as a senior developer with promises that the next project I may get to try my hand at management or being the project's architect (the position I want, because after 20 years of coding everyone else's ideas, I'd like to be the one giving the…

I never really listen much to early ideas about games and mechanics, especially when it comes to Molyneux's games. He has great ideas, but sometimes those ideas end up being tempered by system capabilities (console games), development issues (it can be very hard to just "add in" combat or multiplayer to a game for the…

Journey is one of the few games that made me cry. Simple mechanics, no words, but a beautiful story to be unearthed with an ending (and musical score) that played with my heartstrings.

Can she actually transform, though? Looks like her joints aren't conducive to the full flexing required of folding up into a vehicle.

I think you'll find that many games have great aspirations that are then scaled back due to budget, time or system resources. It seems to be the latest thing, let's look at what COULD have been and assume that it was all 99% done and they dropped it just to spite us, or to sell it as DLC, or because they're dumb dumbs.

Hopefully this will be a good change. I've always had a soft spot for Everquest, and am very excited to see what EQ Next has in store. If it (or Planetside 2 please please please) comes to Xbox One, I'll be a happy camper.

People think of you as a holy hero of sorts, so most will expect you to be human. If you pick Qunari or Dwarf, a few people aren't so happy about that, since those races tend to follow other religions entirely. Cassandra's line in the comic is one of the first most players will run into, so I guess they're just making…

The key point is "speed run." This isn't their first time through the game here, and JRPGs don't usually have a lot of diverging plotlines based on dialogue options.

Here's a simple question. Do you know what nacho cheese is? As it turns out, whatever it is that you use to define "nacho cheese" is probably wrong.

I always welcome more Lego games. Fun games to play in front of my young kids aside from driving or puzzle games.

The mechanics were solid, if they'd done a bit more with the game. I loved that playing a supporting role gave you a good number of points, the gadgets/powerups and the parkour. But it was so hard to keep a server running with the constant patches, some breaking things, some fixing things they broke last time, etc.

But does it ever change?

No, they mean the deal to get a free upgrade ends after a year. You own any copy you "buy" (for free) when the deal is active, but anyone who buys or decides to upgrade a Win 7/8 device after that deal has ended will have to pay.

You can buy Gat Out of Hell separately, but yes you can purchase a bundle edition of both games. Not sure if this is the case in retail, but digitally that's how it's set up for preorder of Xbox One.

How much spoiling should I expect if I'm only a couple episodes into Season 2? I don't mind minor spoilers; most people who know the character better than I would probably know what's coming for the big plot-lines. Plus I already know *SPOILER*Mrs. Queen dies thanks to the Flash episode Oliver was in.*ENDSPOILER*

I was trying to use SmartGlass (on Windows Phone and Windows 8) to get this pack downloaded, since I already bought the Season Pass, but there are no buttons to buy/download.

What would be the point in that? Hating on Microsoft and Ubisoft at the SAME TIME?! I mean, what a view/click GOLD MINE! Hating on Sony would just anger all the people normally clapping excitedly when MS/Ubi does wrong.

Right, because the physical copies use less electricity... somehow... uh...
