If you read the top of the article, you’d see that the point of the book is only partially about what this particular game did wrong (and only in a minor way). It seems to be more about what made the game fantastic and how games (but new creations and MGS games) have not followed in the footsteps of the original in…

I’m generally pretty friendly online (though will be creepy and just start following people for long stretches of time...) but we’ve been conditioned that when a person comes up to you it is better to be safe than sorry. I can’t tell you how often I’ll get out of doing a heist with people only to spawn next to them…

It wasn’t just you. I loved the first Crackdown game, but the second one focused on what was essentially a “flood” type character. Those enemies were no fun to play against. Add to that the real lack of a motivation for the singleplayer (turn on “disruptors (or whatever they were) and bring down the hive... and then…

I disagree wholeheartedly with your assessment.

Same Track. New Tactics.

A new game mode will always provide new tactics, so that’s hardly something that shows as a benefit to using the same tracks. The fact that they’re actually using tracks is fairly lazy, despite your defense as supposed corners. Mario Kart 64, the…

So would the library of congress! There are some bits that maybe look a little better with updated graphics, but there is so much that looks so much worse that I would just prefer the originals. Classic movies that were well edited and had a lack of clutter in frame. I still have my video cassettes, but it’s been so…

Star Wars releases!!!.... Oh... no non-”lucas-fied” editions... nevermind...

I get a $10 coupon in the mail every couple of weeks... it’s not so bad.

Temperature control is actually pretty important, though I can’t say a cool liquid hurts. Oh, and something to listen to! I shouldn’t be left alone with my thoughts...

Well... remove the Empire’s ability to have reskinned jets and helicopters, and make the X-wings into snowspeeders. That’s much less work than what they’re currently doing...

It’s a four game penalty, and mostly because the league is getting kicked in the butt because of light punishments. Cheating, however, is much different than the NFL rigging a game for one side or the other. Patriots cheat all the time, but the NFL doesn’t rig the games.

Mayhap you just don’t know what the term “underdog” means? See, two teams who both won their divisions (Pittsburg at 12-4, Arizona at 9-7) facing off in a Superbowl... Arizona might have been a slight underdog, but to compare them to the 16-0 Patriots (who won their division) and the 10-6 Giants (who were wildcards…

They’re going to be voting about it’s entry into the olymics in 2017, but is that really what it takes for you? Gold was added back in as an Olympic sport, so if that is your qualification you may need to go out into the world a bit more. And if you knew anything about football, you’d know that the underdog team wins…

Why wouldn’t I be serious? Isn’t the whole point of Battlefront to re-enact battles from the movies to see if you can have a different outcome or succeed where they had previously? Why would you add elements that specifically were not included in those battles?

Each time I think you can’t possible say anything dumber, and each time you prove me wrong. I should stop overestimating you!

Football is growing all over the place. Canada, Europe, and Brazil are all jumping on board. In Europe they’ve gone from about 400 teams in 2000 to about 1500 teams today. Countries like…

Yep! They opened me up and just downloaded “Love Football” onto my hard drive! Thank God there are people like you who are so obviously un-programmed to continue the fight! Why don’t we meet where we can talk about your ideas more? Perhaps you can provide specifications on your firewall, access ports, and CPU for no…

I don’t give a crap about how passionate they are about Star Wars! Most people who make the games can be passionate about the movies and still get it wrong! I care about whether they’re passionate about Battlefront. Battlefront was a great game beyond the Star Wars setting, which is why it was such a beloved title. Do…

Wow... you certainly have an interesting (but flawed) view of Republicans. Republicans are not against peace, respect, and knowledge at all. Nor do we (that’s right!) believe others are beneath us. I’m not disagreeing with you about whether they would be around in the Star Trek timeline, because one of the two big…

You don’t think football will survive the next 20 years? The game that is currently America’s favorite sport? Even if it declines from the spot like Baseball did, it’s not going to be gone in 20 years. It certainly won’t be replaced by the soccer. Most of the people stateside that actually support the game indicate…

When you call a game the same name of a beloved series, it’s not crazy to think that they will have some elements of the original series included. No galactic conquest, no space battles, no instant action solo against bots, 3 worlds (plus a fourth at launch!... that will look exactly like one of the three we already…

I don’t care!!!

At this point, I only want one thing from this game: singleplayer full battles against bots. It was one of the staples of the original series and it is a requirement for this game. I don’t care about “Missions” mode or any of their other announcements. Just the ability to go Instant Action and play…
