I hate metacritic. Between the practice of making an arbitrary number determined by averaging out other arbitrary review systems, some of which don't even use numbers, and the utterly useless user reviews due to trolls both for and against a game/platform/company, I can't understand how anybody can take that site…

No problems here either. And no I don't use Adblock or anything either.

That may be the case, but I have neither the interest nor funds to get the , what, 3 different handhelds this series is spread out across now? I've never been a fan of gaming on a handlheld device. And I'm certainly not picking any up for just one or two games just to have it collect dust like every other handheld…

Cool! I'll have to go back and check these out once I'm done with ME3. Ranged killcams sound awesome!

I'm pretty much done with KH series. I have no interest in getting any of the multiple handhelds required to keep up with the story, and by the time a proper KH3 gets made ( if it ever does) I'll probably be so far behind as to have no clue what's going on anymore.

I really don't get the rage here. I'm not trying to defend these as "The greatest endings ever!" or anything, but I thought the one I got was pretty cool.

Latvian Folk Metal band my friend introduced me to last week. Enjoy.

I can't even begin to imagine what that has to be like for either the parents or the kid. That's just amazing work by the EQ2 community as well. I wish nothing but the best for all involved.

Have you read anything about the game itself? The RPG looks completely awesome! Plays like Paper Mario, with turn based battles, summoned creatures, the works.

Absolutely loved this show as a kid. Nobody else ever knows what I'm talking about when I bring it up.

Why this sudden demand for Spidey to be open world again? Where were all you people when Web Of Shadows dropped? I'm pretty sure the whole reason they started making the linear Spider-man games again was because nobody bought the last open world one.

With all that, I think he fits in Kotaku perfectly.

Please please please please do not let this can the South Park RPG. I've been extremely excited about that since I read the news. To take it away now would just be completely heartbreaking.

Finally beat ME3 last night. I'll keep it spoiler free. I really don't see what all the rage is about with the ending. It wasn't "THE BEST ENDING EVAR!" but it wasn't bad. I actually thought the ending I received was pretty cool.

About to start what I'm pretty sure is the last damn mission for ME3. I really wish I had just avoided any game sites this week. I've luckily avoided any spoilers, but I'm afraid even knowing the ending is controversial may color my perception of it.

The guy makes a lot of good points. I disagree with showing the difference between pro reviews and user reviews from metacritic without also mentioning the bias many gamers tend to hold.

Seems as good a place to post this as I'll ever get.

Yet, it's perfectly okay if I put myself in there, even though I am a complete non athlete?

There are also no 5'4 nonathletes in these games, yet I still have the option to put myself in there. I see no harm in allowing women to do the same.

And that makes a difference to these games how exactly?
