Imagine using the above game mechanic not for horror but arkham-like action.

Doom is just the best Dungeon Master ever!

Conditioned by years of JPRGs, where I hoard every potion, every useless trinket I can because they’ll be useful later, my kleptomania kicked into high gear the very first moments I started playing Elder Scrolls Oblivion for the first time and, conditioned, began taking every spoon, cup, rock, pair of pants, bone…

Alternate headlines for this story:

sorry u don’t like it, lol. That kiss was groan inducing but just got back from destroying that planet killer thing and barely saved the only person outside his mom that “knew” him. He prolly would've checked around post kiss if zod had not been there ready to attack as soon as he realized what happened. Compare that…

I love that they do a good job of imitating the original voices.

Carl Weathers as Jax sounds like enough reason to buy it for me. That’s genius.

When killed by one of her parents, Cassie should drop to the ground and start crying/gasping out for the other parent as she tries to put herself back together.... Then she dies and the other parent runs out and holds her and cries out.

Flawless Victory, indeed.

Instead of a fatality, Johnny can send Cassie up to her room and then turn off the Wi-fi. Jax can have Jacqui mow the lawn while he lays in a hammock drinking a beer.

Less friendly banter, more tearful “I’m going to have to rip your chest open now, baby.”

Press X.

I fail to see how it’s meaningfully different than what you see in traditional media outlets. Of course, your opinion may be that all video game coverage is garbage, Kotaku included, but we’ll just have to disagree there. Just because YouTube is full of low-quality stuff doesn’t mean there aren’t people doing really…

Black hole sun

That face slash is so Equilibrium.

The Chief of Police was quoted claiming that the black avatar was likely just a "haxor" and that scheduled protests would cause "server overload".

I say both. Those level X achievements are actually rather useful for developers to look at. It's a semi-passable metric to see where people lose interest in your game so you can plan accordingly for the next one.

I thought we were done belittling our own kind.

Now it just needs this.
