I've been gaming since the Atari 2600, and I have over a dozen gaming consoles. You could describe me as a "Core gamer".

I think you might want to inform yourself of the difference between: "Flaming Sony" and "Making a legitimate complaint that a company mislead you with their marketing."

"I'm saying that integrating multiplayer into single player-style campaigns will make for better games overall. "

I've tried it, and I just don't like it. I think it's just not for me.

For me. It's honestly a dealbreaker. In real life, I'm very shy and I have anxiety issues (particularly when dealing with people I don't know), but online I can afford to be very outgoing and even friendly because I am protected behind the veil of anonymity. I understand that people oftentimes use anonymity as an…

Why is there no "meh"/"didn't really move the needle" option for the first poll, or a "Eventually, but not for a couple years" on the second poll? (Or add "at launch" to the second poll.)

Why is "not showing the console" considered a big deal by anybody?

Simple enough, whether or not you write them, I'm just not going to read (watch, or otherwise verb) game previews any more. No matter who writes them. The only reason to disseminate information about a game before it's actually released is to attempt to build hype and get people excited about buying the game. Since…

Well, I mean, if someone releases a console that's actively anti-consumer, and PC gaming has generally eclipsed console gaming, and you're not really tied to any specific console-exclusive franchises, then why can't you say "if I'm being told I can't resell my games, I'm at least going to go with the platform that has…

I'm happy with the current gen, have an impressive backlog (it contains PS1 games), hate platform wars, and believe that being an early adopter is for suckers. I'm also thinking of getting a gaming PC.

I would like to point out an error. You gave offensive linemen an intelligence score of 1 out of a maximum of 5. Every year, aspiring professional football players take at the NFL Scouting Combine (or at one of several regional combines) a standardized intelligence test known as the "Wonderlic" test. This is a…

Honestly, I think that "Companies exist to make money" is a fair observation when coupled with "If you don't like it, don't buy it." Companies are going to push the envelope in terms of "things that make them money" until they reach a breaking point and consumers push back so those same practices stop making them…

Honestly, transpose V and VII my list is the same as Mr. Schreier's (i.e. VI > IX > IV > V > VII > VII > X > III > XII > II > XIII).

I love Mass Effect 3, I thought the ending was fantastic, and I'm excited for more Mass Effect 3 DLC. If you don't agree with me, that's fine. Just realize that people like different things in games. Some people get excited about map packs. I don't get it, but it's fine that they're getting something they want. …

What's wrong with Etrian Odyssey? I would put each of the three EO games over all but 5-6 of the Final Fantasy games.

Considering Brown vs. ESA, wouldn't that be patently unconstitutional?

How exactly would a minor go about buying a game online? Doesn't that require a credit card (which is something that a minor cannot get)?

There's two comics with "Nerf" in the title. The one with the Dota2 joke is "NerfNow", the one that's story-based and so I have no idea what's going on or who the characters are because I only see it once a week is "Nerf This."

After Grubbins on Ice, Costume Quest ends on a bit of a cliffhanger. I certainly would be interested in seeing where they go with it.
