So you need to not only plan for the turn you're on, but the turn ahead. It's taxing, and at times makes getting past guards as much of a puzzle game as an exercise in tactics.

Considering Stanley Parable operates like most of these horror games do, except the horror never comes (aside from a couple of the more bizarre endings), this combination provides flawless synergy.

It's not that bad a movie, no more or less terrible than the other Marvel (or comic book in general if your name isn't Batman) movies of the era.

Sold poorly compared to how well they would have sold if they were advertised by someone who understands how marketing works, or how EA said they expected them to sell when they declared the series shut down.

Feminazis generally loathe this game because it shows men as equal to women and vice versa. LGBTs tend to love both Shepards equally, and there's a lot more well-done gay porn fanart of ManShep than LadyShep (emphasis on "well-done", low-quality-done-wise LadyShep knocks it out of the park, same for Rule 63 fanart to…

Considering how Phantom Pain's trailers brought on very Silent Hill-esque imagery, and how the Silent Hill franchise is broken up beyond belief, I think this is going to be a very promising project.

You read, but you do not comprehend. HE was a complete unknown, since his biggest role prior to Mass Effect was voicing extras in Baldur's Gate. Jennifer Hale has been voicing cartoons and videogames for over a decade before that.

Depends on where you ask, but generally more people have the respects for Hale's acting as the fabled Commander rather than Meer's. Most of that may be related to her bigger reputation to begin with, since he was a complete unknown when the first game was released, while she already had a list of roles as long as your…

Not just "one platform", but the one with the smallest install base and the most shady messed up reputation, too.

Uncharted 1 wasn't released on multiplatform, then ported to more multiplatforms, and THEN Uncharted 2 made PS3 exclusive.

Gorram Microsoft and their gorram lies about "We care about Windows gaming".

Awakening didn't ruin the ending outright. The implication that there were more Brother Moons out there was very obvious, as was the fact that Isaac and Co did precisely nothing to contain the Convergence-to-be on Luna. The fact that Isaac and Carver are there to see it rather than are dead to not see it, is actually…

The problem of the Refusal ending was that the Stargazer makes a BIG FAT MORAL POINT out of the fact that the next cycle used the gods-damned Crucible anyway, as if our example taught them nothing.

The Refusal (Non)-Ending added by the EC, which was part-trolling, part-misunderstanding WHAT THE FANDOM SAW IN THE FRANCHISE and essentially annihilated it by showing the remaining writers on the team misunderstood WHAT THE FRANCHISE WAS ABOUT, sorta kinda counts as a counterpart to the scuttling ending of DXHR.…

Did you, by chance, actually PLAY the games after the first one? Extraction does a lot of things many light-gun games omit, like puzzle-solving (done in a frustrating but fun way, where you STILL HAVE TO KEEP SHOOTING to keep enemies away), while still providing the very proper Dead Space mind-screw experience.

It's either gonna make you forget the ending, or exacerbate the butthurt, because it's written as "yay, cerebrations after we saved the Galaxy", but the go-in and go-out dialogue (and its position in the gameplay) is "well, last shore leave before we go all throw ourselves into the grinder of the Ending". It's also…

The problem with Renegade, is that even in the (arguably most consistently-written) first game, it flip-flops between "anything to get the job done" (which the manual promises) and "total jerkwad", while Paragon is firmly stuck in the "stick firmly stuck up his ass".

The problem is that most vocal of the people that did get the closure tend to dismiss the people who didn't as someone who wanted rainbows and puppies.

This is wonderfully spot-on and hilarious in all the right ways. Ah, if only we had such a trailer before we set ourselves up for the crippling disappointment.

Why the fuck does everyone assume "well-written ending" equals "happy ending"?
