Did I spy a giant enemy crab being hit for massive damage in that video?!

@stranger: I think the interaction pop-up icon is both a blessing and a curse. Like you said, sometimes it's a pain in the ass to find the object it is indicating, but as the game played on, I began to appreciate the sensitivity of the function. A quick 360-degree rotation while standing in the middle of an area will…

@Antilochus: Yes, I was going to make this comment. The original Blaster Master is easily one of the hardest games I've ever played.

@Cpryd001: I know! I asked myself the same thing, but I guess a lot of guys are really into S&M.

I love it. Bioware tries to do interactive romance in a way that's not like a creepy Japanese Dating Sim, and fans blow a gasket.

@stranger: There's some valid criticism here. I think there was a middle-ground Bioware missed with this game. The leveling/customization/equipment was overdone in the first one, and gimped too severely in the second one. I'm glad I don't have to sift through 50 different guns and ammo types after every battle, but…

I'm on my third 360, girlfriend is on her second, best friend is on his second. The thing fails all the damn time (anyone who tries to deny those 50% failure rates is a moron. I think all the original motherboards are doomed to RRoD). If MS didn't offer the extended warranties and painless, quick fixes, I'd never keep…

Man, Russia does it right. I honestly can't wait for our government to crumble so our economy can be run by mafia kingpins. Then we will all have enough money to race ridiculous cars in broad daylight with no legal interference.

Good to see that GM hood gap is up to spec.

New Vegas looks very advanced. That sort of tech just doesn't come from nowhere in the Fallout Universe, which would lead me to believe there will be some new pre-war faction behind the city's administration.

"A Way of Life"

@petersterncan: It was a Supra RZ, meaning it was 276HP. The Typhoon is rated at 280-300hp (depending on who you talk to) with waaaaay more torque and all-wheel drive.

Keep in mind, that was a Supra RZ, limited to 276HP. It's beefier, North American brother runs a much better quarter mile.

Serious chick car alert. Just like the Del Sol was a chick car.

"People with short attention spans" aka "Americans".

@IamZardoz: So... you got screwed, but not in the way you wanted?

Obama Shepard - YES WE CAN save the Galaxy!

I can't even begin to fathom how many hundreds of dollars in quarters arcade machines chewed up in my childhood. Having said that, it's not the 1980's anymore, and we don't have to have mom drive us to the mall to experience cutting-edge vector graphics. If you haven't bought any arcade titles yet, then great, dig…

Looks like the same specs for Warcraft 3. A testament to how long this game has been in development.

@petethepanda: Yea the dialogue tree is one of the big differences here. To be fair, most games are story-driven (how many games don't have plots? Not a lot), so I think it's sloppy semantics on Kotaku's part. Just because games like ME2 and U2 tell a really good story doesn't mean they deserve their own…
