Yeah but at least he was a strong badguy. Not a bridge. And they made a big deal out of it forEVER, even though nobody really cared about Tasha Yarr.

Not that I didn't enjoy Prince of Persia, but the fun in PoP lasted for maybe 45 minutes and not a lot longer. Also, there's something really ignoble about the personification of Death doing a hand-over-hand on a wooden beam. Death needs wooden beams to get around? I mean... come on. It's a wooden beam. At the point…

Haha, and by "borrows from Prince of Persia", they mean "copies wholesale with pretty much identical animation".

Wow. This takes Tl:Dr to a whole new level.

A circle literally covers all possible angles

God the craziness of that game.

It's not that you're a terrible PERSON, George.

There is no conceivable way you can type enough on a tablet to ever hurt your wrists.

Oh come on. You can't seriously expect me to believe that the corny story of "the darkness" is something you take seriously? As some sort of justification for all the violence? Violence is a device, which you COULD use in a more sophisticated way if you wanted, but which the devs just used for regular everyday…

Looks boring. Looks boooooring. Ultra-violence for the sake of ultra-violence and nothing else? Honestly? It feels like the game trailer is pulled out of the head of a particularly violent seven year old, and it just makes me feel like it's immature.

The Fred Saberhagen Swords books really are quite good for what they are. They're a nice adventure story without cloyingly terrible writing.

Your anarchy needs clearer sentences.

The point of the study is to study English AS a language, INSOFAR as it is a language. To conflate the two words in a blog post is fine, because we know what Alasdair means. It's not purporting to study all languages because that study would be INSANELY HUGE.

It's a grand theory, and one that isn't necessarily easy to square with our intuitive sense that language is something we use to communicate whatever we want.

Did Colossus get Cyttorak powers? Why is he the juggernaut too?

Honestly, it was pretty great. And the good ending was shockingly emotional and awesome for what is essentially a game about a man who blasts shit! It's criminal that they left it out.

Infamous 2 had the best adventure-writing dialogue of the year, far and away more interesting than any of the adventure games listed here. Although Uncharted 3 was amusing enough.

aaah that's horrible. At least in GoW you could just pound on whatever enemy until they went away.

Listen Alasdair, that galaxy cluster is perfectly fine with her weight. She's a bright, articulate galaxy cluster and doesn't need you to make her feel poorly about herself. Some galaxy clusters are just born different.

Odyssey 5 was really close to being amazing on an unreal level. When you read the story of Odyssey 5, it feels like an epic incredible space opera, with artificial intelligences from both earth and beyond, a black hole destroying earth, time travel, alien saviours. And all the characters have to struggle against their…
