Aren't Robots naked by default?

I've put hours and hours and hours into the game and I never knew you could use the sword on foot! Don't forget cavalry also has an infinite supply of health and ammo for your peeps plus decent grenades for tanks. It's a really fun thing to play as.

If you're feeling really evil there's the universal squat dance. Where you know they have to see your body highlighted in red so you go crouch-stand-crouch-stand-crouch-stand just to really be a poor sport about it.

That's a smart move. It would have forced me to sit down and appreciate Gunstar Heroes for once! Instead I just sat on hundreds of Roms until the hard drive they were stored on went kaput and they were lost… like tears in the rain.

*wipes tear away from eye*

Killer is Dead is the game where there's a mini-game where you're supposed to look at a ladies breasts without getting caught right? Stay classy Suda 51.

In Battlefield 1, unlocking new guns really only matters for certain classes. I'm rank 61 and I still use the generic MP18 with Assault more than any other gun. Though when you get the BAR for Support it is like unlocking a whole new class. The gun only has 20 round magazines but it's a killing machine. Man I love

I'm still waiting on the Wii U because since it's got one foot in the grave already, I'm assuming the price will have to hit rock bottom soon before they then follow the usual Nitnendo path of inexplicably becoming pricy collector's items.

Subscribing to your channel on YouTube was worth it just to pick up my iPad last night and see a push notification that said "Staggering Stew-Bum - HITMAN RUBBER DUCKIE…"

Thousand Year Door is still the only Paper Mario I've ever played but it set the bar so impossibly high that I've been afraid to try another one… but sixteen hammer animations is tempting.

Working with Cerberus is weird because you know deep down that they're evil and this all feels shady and then in Mass Effect 3 it's like, oh yeah, they're supes evil better kill em now.

That game is masterfully designed. I wish I took the time to try more of the "styles" but once I realized how good floaty was I never went back.

I am very tempted by the RetroPie but one thing I think the NES Classic has over it is you won't suffer from Tyranny of Choice. Back in my more legally dubious college days, I downloaded emulators for the Genesis, Nes and SNES and then got hundreds of games for them from a torrent site. Albeit I was playing on a

Ohhhhh, nothing feels as good as lining up just right in Galaga and watching an entire row of Bee-Ship-Kajiggers(?) fly right into your line of fire. God I need to hit up the retro bar arcade near me again.

I tried the Nier Demo. Didn't blow my socks off. All the platinum games with their quick attack, heavy attack, timed dodge formula are blending together for me right now.

This was a good goddam year for games! All my favorites have been touched upon here and there is one I'd like to nominate even though it really shouldn't be as good as it is: Battlefield 1.

Dishonored has always been A+ in the aesthetics department and it looks like they continue to earn that A+ in number 2.

Pokemon GO justified its existence for me by letting me take a picture of myself drunk in the streets of St Louis pointing at a real-life Rattata.

Nothing makes me want to play the Uncharted Games more than your enthusiasm for them Stewbum. I skipped 3 though so do you think I could just jump back in at 4 or is it really essential to play 3?

I'm nominating this for Random House' 2016 "Best American Games Writing" with Guest Editor Pac Man.
