@Pooka: Though it's not a game series, I'd have to go with Dorothy from the Big O. Such a great character.

@Amazing_Spiderham: Ridiculous.

@Twyst3d: Great video.

@fuchikoma: They really neglected the brakes in this game: you can't upgrade your brakes, you can only balance their braking power fore and aft. That said, the weight of the car, and it's engine placement definitely play a factor, because the game really does model weight transfer really well.

@fuchikoma: I've got to disagree with the MT / AT claims in GT5. I play MT with a DS3 and find shifting is helpful for engine braking and for settling the car in corners.

@AgentSmithAndWesson: I've come to enjoy these posts. Keep it up.

@freedomweasel: I'm really surprised how, in some ways, GT5 is a step back from the features we enjoyed in GT5P.

@Aenean:

@The Sentient Meat: Man I miss Final Fantasy Tactics...

@SupremeEvan: Uncharted 2 is a hard game to put down once the SP is started. Enjoy.

@d4rk-h4x0rer: Eek. I meant Killzone 3. :D

Battlefield: Bad Company's 2 multiplayer has kept me coming back since launch. I strayed a bit from the title when I was grinding F:NV and then GT5, but I rediscovered my love for BC2 after downloading the latest VIP map pack.

So the question is: what did the author play in 2010?

25 cent for TIE Fighter

@Arcadian: You should go over to io9. They love this sort of talk.

I applaud this article. Kudos Leigh.

I remember dropping ~$70 on P.T.O. II for the SNES back in the day. Why did games cost so much back then?

@Shmraggon: I remember when Civ 4 did its best to try to get me to fail out.

GT5:

@elitemoon11: Good catch: Valkyur.
