Best game for the original NES? I'm partial to RBI Baseball.

Cross between the sound of a bong hit, Kate Middleton climaxing, and Nick Oliveri screaming on QOTSA's "Millionaire"

The Rad Brad all the way. His YT videos make it seem like every game is fun. I've bought games based on his walkthroughs alone.

Ha, thanks. As I mentioned in my first post, I am 33 years old with two kids. Constructive dialog on the Internet is what I prefer. I have no time or patience for mean spirited attacks. Thanks for the fun discussion.

You make valid points, but I only presented the scenario as a possibility. Obviously, Nintendo does very well with its consoles (and perhaps even better with its handhelds). Nobody can say for certain whether they will continue to produce hardware or go the all-software route. My point was that this game could be…

Sour Patch Kids for me. If I eat more than five at a time, the roof of my mouth is destroyed and takes more than a week to get better.

Why Super Mario 3D World should be game of the year: In a year with new consoles from Microsoft and Sony, Nintendo needed SOMETHING to help it sell the Wii U. This is the perfect answer to that challenge.

That implies Microsoft and Sony actually make a profit, and not a loss, on the consoles.

Yep. Controversy = pageviews. I used to be a Wall Street journalist, so I know the game. And I'm glad the author at least included the numbers so you could see it was less than 1%. It's the same issue for Apple, when they sell 5 million iPhones in the first weekend and a few are duds.

So a few consoles are affected. And Microsoft is sending out replacements immediately. And so far it's anecdotal evidence of maybe a few hundred? I don't get it. What's the big deal here?

What about the ratatouille in Ratatouille? I wanna know what it tastes like.

Well done. As soon as I saw Drew say not every NFL owner needs to be wearing a suit, all I could picture was Al Davis' spawn and the goofy rhinestone cowboy outfit/bowl haircut he was rocking last weekend.

Something I am confused about - hopefully someone can answer before I find out Friday: So the Xbox One can blast out an IR to turn on your STB and your TV, right? What about a home theater system? I currently have a receiver with 4 HDMI in and 1 HDMI out to the TV.

I bought this book for my dad for Christmas. Wondering if I can get away with reading it before I gift it.

Surprised no one has joked that Microsoft took a bunch of Xbox One consoles away from Target and gave them to Amazon instead.

I had the unfortunate opportunity to play/own this game for the Wii.

This isn't a list of best games, but a list of games that defined the generation.

Far Cry 2 and 3 are different enough that I would try both. Far Cry 2 is more difficult for me — you need to keep your gun maintained so it doesn't rust, etc. Far Cry 3's story is a bit...terrible?...but the gameplay is super, super fun.
