"...Both the first person fallouts and oblivion were fantastic, they didn't look very good, but they were fun, had great characters and memorable locations. Skyrim was dumbed down so much to make way for graphics that it was a terrible game ( in my opinion) with copy pasted dungeons, appalling combat, It wasn't even…

I'll be sure to look up a few of these suggestions at work tonight! Yes, I do plan on using it in the living room rather than a desktop and the tv is 1080p. I'll definately keep an eye open if TAY or the front page get an article from you, but you've definately given me a great starting point, and as always appreciate…

Hey sir, just responding so I show back up in your notifications!

Not related to Ni No Kuni (that is an enjoyable game however) but since this was posted in moneysaver it will hopefully be considered on topic...I've been meaning to ask you for your input after reading your pc building article on here back when. I'm finally looking to invest about $1500 for a strictly gaming pc (I…

Ya, this is a pretty fair point and probably informative for some that manufacturers are actual getting income from these types of games. For me this is a non-issue in that I'm fine with the production of these guns (I just think we should consider further limiting the purchase of some of them to normal civilians.)

I think it says alot for the layout that I immediately welcomed it. It seems like everything flows together in a more pleasing way, including the comments. I also am a big fan that, for example, I clicked on the final fantasy x re-release article and below it lists "more articles about final fantasy." Pretty gosh darn…

Others have already argued in comments why EA still stands out as more consistently having shitty practices in general, so the only additional point I'd like to add is it bothers me he seems to be implying we shouldn't complain because it's annoying to him and doesn't serve a purpose, and that instead we should just…

A brief scroll down the comments page shows multiple comments starting with, "As a black person..." who all seem to be defending tiny tina as not racist.

This is a side point to the argument above, but I like how mike sacco seems shocked about anthony burch being seemingly dismissive towards him, then he posts on twitter, "Ah, and here comes the parade of Kotaku commenters to my twitter. Here's a catch-all reply: go fuck yourselves." Charming gent....

I think revenue close to a billion dollars from the first black ops disagrees with your opinion. There are plenty of games that include shooting obviously that deal with issues well beyond the gameplay of shooting. I ended up caring incredibly for most of my squad and their personal stories and details with the mass…

I think you've got a good point...people who normally peruse this site or other video game news sites (or magazines) most likely have a strong opinion on whether they are going to buy this game or not, and the cover is unlikely to change that. I think that the suggested cover would also appeal to that same uninformed…

for your first point, I think he's suggesting alot of those "young, shooter-playing dudes" DON'T know about bioshock...that of most of the genres it's more probable someone who enjoys first person shooters might be uninformed, just because shooters tend to appeal to average individuals (not suggesting they don't also…

I responded to Stephens comment on here...but actually while discussing that I believe I've run across my problem with the perceived point of the article....I THINK that point is to show how video games themselves, and the way we play them, can illustrate some aspects of how we in the real world interact..showing…

As a critique on myself...I sure do use the word point alot here... it gets all sorts of confusing. Apologies.

I'm asking this in a genuine way because I'm curious on your take...do you think this is the case because the community here as a whole isn't mature enough to move on to the point of the paper...OR do you think it's possible it points out that perhaps, regardless of anything moral, a critique could be made the author…

That's a sweet story. I'm also happy to see someone else point out our generation got lucky with a brief moment online where people actually just wanted to chat from being excited about new technology and meeting new friends...I met a few random strangers I talked to consistently for years through AIM and the official…

mine's kremk0in (with a zero)...because i had alot of fun memories playing donkey kong country 2 with family, it's simple and sounds cool when pronounced (in my opinion anyways), and I figured it would be available... because how many people would pick a name off of a type of currency/token in a game? Since I had to…

or you could argue alot of people just thought "The Wii already did that" and passed it up because they recognized how long that system has been collecting dust in their living room. I'm not saying there aren't some worthwhile games or that NOBODY is playing it anymore, but a very large chunk of people (atleast from…

They marketed to a different audience interested in motion controls instead of large graphical improvements (atleast compared to Sony and Microsoft)...so yes I would definately say motion controls were the major contribution to the Wiis success. It got the momentum going.Personally, I got one for monster hunter tri…

sorry for the very late reply, I haven't logged in since the last time i sent the previous message!
