The reason people keep buying PS2 is because Sony's next gen console is the ONLY console that is not backwards compatible. They ripped us off, cause they knew they would make more money.

My friend and I decided it would be fair if I said I had beaten Karnov for NES. He saw how close I was to beating it, and we figured that was enough. Fortunately I have never had to lie because no one has ever heard of Karnov.

I still find many games difficult! GTA, Ninja Gaiden, Red Faction (had to play that one on easy), no more heroes 2 (that's definitely hard enough), Monster Hunter Freedom. Anyway, I don't know what games are too easy but I ain't playing them. I HATE games like ghost and goblins cause I can't even beat the second…

Zombies are the most played out thing in America.

@resvrgam: Yeah cause there has never been a shower scene in the history of american cinema.

why would you need a touch screen on the back? It's like the stupid six axis pS3 controllers: at first the games tried to implement it just cause it was there, but eventually it was just a useless function.

Before we say that video games cause violent behavior, lets look a little closer at politicians and conservative media calling other parties "nazis" and putting crosshairs over them in graphics telling people to literally "reload" their guns in peoples faces. If that is okay, then video games are okay.

So why would you want a verizon iPhone? The data is slower, you get 50mb less than ATT a month for the same price... Everything about it seems worse. You mention yourself that the "deathgrip" is not a real problem anyway.

@Glames: that was last year's!

@viewtifulhero: That was last year's!

@Ken: But "no more heros" is parody, I don't think writing it off as cliche is fair. That's like saying Stephen Colbert is just another conservative a-hole.

Should I buy this or mega man 10? Please advise! Keep in mind: Mega Man 9 was too difficult for me, so I plan on getting 10 for the easy setting. I never ever play games on easy, but MM9 was just too difficult for me.

@rainofwalrus: Sounds like mega man... did he fight Snow Man at the end of the snow level -with his new found powers from defeating gravity man?

@Sackboy: Yeah Portman should be best actress, she had to learn Ballet (more than dumbass Keanu Reeves had to learn kung-fu in Matrix). But also her transformation was incredible in the film.

So the one thing you hated I can't even read because it's a spoiler. I you think THIS movie puts video games to shame, then maybe you should agree w/ Ebert that games aren't art. Cause I know for a fact that this is not the best movie ever made.

Never thought I'd play this exclusive game until it was suddenly announced for PS3, I'll give it a shot, maybe is the game of the year, who knows.

booooooorrrrring

I'm glad Kotaku didn't award some basketball game for being slightly better than the previous basketball game.

@Mokon: RDR is clunky and awkward at first, but becomes less so the more I played it. I only had glitches in the beginning for some reason -maybe it was fixed by the updates...

You think that looks realistic? No you don't!
