@GohanGVO: CoCo conga line!

@TrIp13G: I remember when he was actually funny as a standup on Letterman. But he's overshadowed those days with two decades of mediocrity, and by screwing over two titans of comedy, David Letterman and Conan O'Brien.

@Kobun: We don't know what Conan's contract says. They don't own him necessarily, he's under contract to host a specific show under agreed conditions. If NBC gives Leno back Tonight, who knows if Conan is obligated to host Late Night or anything else. NBC has shown piss poor judgment so it's hard to say what they'll…

@Zinger314: I think Fallon will be fine. If NBC tries to take Tonight from O'Brien, he'll walk.

@cat. bus. - Die bad robots! Die!: NBC managed to piss everyone off... Leno, O'Brien, fans, affilliates... the status quo is untenable because no one's watching Leno and Tonight's ratings are down, partly because there is no lead in due to the Leno debacle. Now that they created this mess, there's no way to back out…

@Super Violent St. Cannon- GOTY Edition: I'm a little afraid to watch, because how do you replace Mr. T? But everyone seems to like the trailer.

@actn: Phenomenal. Here's the link:

@TrjnRabbit: Super Mario Bros. 3, hands down.

Is this the future of Natal?

@jayntampa: I want a level of polish and innovation in terms of gameplay, but I would gladly accept more stylized graphics to play games that are as good as, say... Boom Blox, or Zak and Wiki, without having to play on a console exclusively dedicated to that trade-off, and usually not delivering on it.

@Xzyx987X: My twelve year old son loves this game with a fiery passion. It really does fire the imagination, and then provides an amazing playground for his creations. So many games tell us how to play, and reward us for pressing the right buttons at the right time. Nuts & Bolts rewards the kid in us, and provides…

@Duin: It seems like when Rare is at the top of their game and innovating, they struggle for mainstream acceptance even though their games are very accessible (I'm thinking of Blast Corps, Viva Pinata and Nuts & Bolts). Thats a shame, because few developers are able to present new ideas that are simply grasped, yet…

@apoloimagod: Stephen nails the way to understand, play and enjoy BK:N&B... the joy is in figuring out how you are going to overcome obstacles... not through play (although that's important, too) but through invention and planning. And the game is one of the best looking (and sounding) of the current generation.

@legendnthemaking: I'm hoping Sega releases a demo, as the game looks promising. But a game like that comes down to feel more than looks, and I'd like to have a go before committing.

@Kobun: Lol, the arcade GUI is terrible... and why do I have to press X to change the camera the first time I play each table, every time I fire up the game. Love the actual pinball, though.

@AshleyAshes: They should try to get their game released as an 'On Demand' game on XBox Live, and available for download on the PSN, and roll out a DLC table or two at the same time (Hello, Cyclone!)

@grantanamo: If you're not big into online play, then jump in, catch up on older games, then by that time, the games that are coming out now will be available used for cheap.

@AJ Glasser: "Valar dohaeris" seemed more appropriate for the new job, but yeah. Just finished Crows, and now the waiting begins. Amazon says September...

@James Henderson: That's it, thanks... I could only think of 'Well Played', but I knew that wasn't it...

Didn't know you spoke Dolphin, AJ. You will truly be missed, both for your unique voice, and for much needed female perspective. Maybe when you decide to let others see your thesis, you could let Owen excerpt and link to it on the weekend (I forget the name of the feature, where readers are pointed to a thoughtful…
