Sure, and that makes sense for a pirate game (which is what Black Flag really is), but it doesn't for a game about assassins. Assassins don't generally get into massive brawls with law enforcement - or, if they do, they generally stop being assassins and start being corpses.

Great review.

Man, if you like video games, you should really own a 3DS.

I honestly didn't feel that way at all, but keep in mind I grew up with the NES, so my opinion of what makes a game "tough" is colored by endless childhood afternoons playing Faxanadu and Battletoads.

I'm sure if I tried really hard I could think of some minor complaints — and I'm sure the reviews that use scores had to come up with some just to justify their arbitrary numbers — but really, it's just a perfect five-hour platforming blast.

Wait a minute. I thought this team was made of hipster Han Solo, raccoon Han Solo, and three versions of the Hulk.

Everytime you die in Alien: Isolation you should have to play Alien: Colonial Marines for an hour instead (it'll feel like a day)

I wouldn't say they needed to keep reinventing the character, as there have been some very good versions of the turtles before (I'm quite fond of the geekiness of the 2003 version of Mikey) but this new version of the turtles is especially good. It has the best balance of humor, action, an character-driven drama of…

I rarely see the horn; not to mention, even if you try to hold it, you'll get zapped by lightning. The games a bitch but I love it.

Perez did that heavily. He was pretty much given free reign to define the reboot of Wonder Woman from '86 on through '90, and he spent a lot of that time on the Greek mythology, of course. Wonder Woman's first opponent out of the gate is Ares.

I'd say the same thing with Miles O'Brien. He didn't do much on the Enterprise but became a fantastic character on Deep Space Nine.

I so often tried to dig into Wonder Woman and it was mostly YAWWWN.

Post-COIE Wonder Woman is my favorite iteration of the character and the one that still resonates the strongest with me, particularly the "Xena Warrior Princess-meets- The West Wing" direction that Greg Rucka took her book in.

Before Alan Moore stepped in, Swamp Thing was a scientist who was playing with chemicals in a swamp, the chemicals blew up, he fell into the swamp, and the chemicals mixed with the swamp turned him into a Swamp Thing.

The only time Aquaman has ever been awesome.

I thoroughly enjoyed this article. I would also love to see even more fashion trends that were popular but caused more damaged that no time could reverse.

I love gore as much as the next sociopath but find the excessive, bone-shattering, organ-puncturing, muscle-tearing moves that allow gameplay to continue unfettered completely impotent in their presentation.

This might be the best gif I've ever seen.
