Yup.

The Zero Suit wasn't Other M's problem.

I don't much care who liked what, but...

Because casting matters — this is what directors think about when they cast movies. It's the reason that Ian McKellan plays Gandalf and Kevin Spacey does not.

Yeah, I read that part of his critique. I'm just not convinced those characters *would* threaten to rape Batman. It seems an odd thing to consider as a point of balance — the thugs are all male.

It's not a matter of body types. It's a matter of how it's displayed. The Catwoman seen in Arkham has her cleavage busting out of a costume with a precariously placed zipper. They could have kept the same model, but dressed her less absurdly.

"They aren't making jokes about "Riding the Harley" because that's just how they roll; someone had to decide that this is what they were going to say."

Yeah — I just wish some of that had seeped into the demo. I'm sure it has its moments, but the whole thing feels flat and lifeless.

Just finished the demo. Very short (less than 15 minutes for most players, I'd guess).

An additional study determined that the entire team of scientists was right-leaners, and that the results of the original study were accordingly exaggerated.

A second study determined that the entire team of scientists were right leaners, and that the results of the original study were accordingly exaggerated.

Ah... noted.

I hear you, Mike. I hardly touch online.

On the bright side, all the annoying phone calls helped to distract me from the repetitive missions and lousy controls.

Ha — thanks for the good laugh before work. Nicely done :)

An embarrassingly small sample of people and a low bit rate (who uses 128 anymore?) make this a pretty worthless "study."

It would be so awesome if this was the last article about the Zelda timeline.

The main issue I have with the hardcore/casual labels is that it pins a stigma to some really awesome games. Most of my gaming is in the "hardcore" camp, but I'll be damned if Cut the Rope isn't one of the best games I've played in the last year. It would certainly be characterized as "casual," but any gamer that…

Again, utter nonsense. I know how to play games just fine, and have been doing so for nearly 30 years. Some are more intuitive than others. It's not even an arguable point to say that isn't true. Compare Pac Man to The Witcher 2, and tell me that they're equally intuitive. To say that the less-intuitive ones are…

That's utter nonsense. Particularly in the 2600 era, when games had limited memory and resolution and could only convey so much information on-screen. There used to be great joy in poring over the instruction manual to figure out how it all worked.
