CONSOLE
XBox 360.

EXPLOITS
You have to use the right script on the right service, gauge which port to tackle based on its encryption strength and password length, noodle through text files for server names, and sometimes even guess a server domain or subdomain. It gets pretty nerdy, and there's little room for error in most cases -

BUGS
All I can say is, I had no problems like that. (If it had corrupted my save file I would've been really screwed - I didn't see any simple way to backup your progress or copy to a separate save.)

OKAY
Matt2, that's a fair point.

NO, IT'S THE WHOLE ASS
Matt2, dunno why I'm even bothering to answer that but yes, I actually played the game before I reviewed it. Sorry I didn't want to blow my 400 words rattling off all the plasmids in the game.

INDIE FUX0RS
We wind up covering at least one indie game a month - some people want more, some want less. (See last week, Jets 'N Guns GOLD - which is a much, much better buy than Sylpheed … .)

Gametunnel
Thanks man. I should pass on the thanks to Gametunnel for rating it so highly. Also, the URL of the site - with a free demo - is jng.rakeingrass.com.

Platforms
I played the Wii version. The handheld versions are substantially different from the console/PC. I'd like to get more of that info on the page (at least the version I reviewed), but keep in mind that in 400 words, we're not going to get into detailed platform-by-platform comparisons - just the highlights.

Transmedia Storytelling
icky and Elitist Fuck - Re: media extensions, yeah, I was referring to stuff like the Matrix games, or 24: The Game filling in some of the story between seasons two and three, or the Nightcrawler plot point in X-Men: The Official Game.

Teasdale …
… it is motherfucking on.
