Agreed. I thought a lot about the ending of Lost when I beat ME3 as well. It seems like a perfect template considering the scale. I don't mind a sad ending - Shepard should probably die, a necessary sacrifice to save the universe, yadda yadda - but the current ending isn't just sad, but the opposite of what the…

I would love to do that, but I know that I would be completely burnt out by the time Thor came on.

Nintendo has done similar things with the DS. Original DS, DSLite, DSi, DSi XL, and then the 3DS. The difference is that the iPad is basically a laptop without a keyboard and with limited functionality. Every year, HP, Dell, and other manufactorers come out with new computers, and people buy them. The thing is not…

With the sales numbers tablets are having, its obviously more than just a trend. They're not direct competitors to consoles, but they are competing with devices like the DS. A lot of soccer moms bought the Nintendo DS to play games like Brain Age. Now they can get that sort of casual gaming elsewhere.

Well, as an artist who makes games, I would definitely consider all games to be some form of art. Art can be defined as "the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination," in which case, as Armane points out, art doesn't strictly have to be visual. You could have a game that is visually ugly but…

I know that most people will knock mobile devices for lack of proper controls - a fair and completely worthwhile point - but with the combined power of newer devices, along with more streaming options, I believe Ben is absolutely correct.

Chances are they'll lower the amount of players on these maps to a more reasonable 24 players, same as the console limits.

If I had lost mine, I would have honestly switched back to PC gaming for good. Achievements are the only real reason I've stuck with the Xbox platform, and my long list of friends. I know Steam has both those things, but with 56,000 GS on Xbox, my Steam score of a couple hundred doesn't really have the same level of…

Completely agree, with one smal difference. I don't necessarily mind a depressing ending. I don't even mind an ending where you lose! Small spoilers follow.

Seriously. All the endings are nearly identical.

It's not that I dislike the ending - overall, I'm happy with the overal concept of the ending, and how they lead up to to it - the Catalyst, the choices the player is presented with, and the after-the-credits bit, which was a great way to encapsulate the Shepherd saga.

Well, there are really two types of computer users - those who are content creators, and those who are content absorbers. These categories do have subsections, but I find the best way to describe them is "I'm an artist/programmer who needs a powerful machine that I can upgrade, adjust, and troubleshoot" and "I want…

You call him a biodrone, yet this problem obviously has more to it than just Bioware. Look at Skyrim. Look at GTAIV. Look at all the games who have had inferior PS3 versions. Sometimes it wasn't a huge difference, sometimes it was a chasm, but either way the PS3 has almost always gotten the short end of the stick…

Just because you think tablets and mobile are stupid doesn't mean that the comparison is bad. You really want to argue with the president of a company who makes the most widely used game engine about what comparisons he should be allowed to make? It takes quite an ego to assume you understand the game industry and…

Actually, the iPad 3 is using the same GPU as the Vita, but just a different version with 4 cores instead of 8.

Just because it isn't a good enough gaming device for you doesn't mean that there aren't parallels or comparison that can be made. They're just noting how far mobile games have come - you get a higher resolution than the consoles and televisions are capable of producing. That's sort of a big achievement. It's a…

Maybe for phones, but tablets tend to be in the $500-700 range.

It has the same GPU as the Vita, albeit less cores. The Xbox and PS3 are built on technology that is almost 6 years old. With clever tweaking you could easily get something with console quality graphics running.

Hey Totilo,

Apple seems to be in a state where their naming convention may change, and most likely they'll change it to make the most sense to current consumers.
