I liked this post. It rang true with me. The video game industry is hurting right now. Anyone that follows Kotaku or other gaming news knows this. Why not try to find ways of making a few extra bucks? They put out a full game, we buy it, we love it, and then you ask us to pay a bit more to keep loving it? I'm okay…

Ever seen Anchorman? When Steve Carell's character starts pointing at things and saying he loves them? "I love lamp." That's what this sounds like. This Makhovskaya doesn't really know what the cause of these suicides are, so in order to try to make it sound like she knows what she's talking about, she randomly points…

I'm the same way. When I have the choice of my plasma tv or a tiny portable screen, the plasma wins every time. It even defeats my LED monitor on my gaming pc on occasion. I work on a pc all day at work, so when I get home, I want a change. I've also got a family, so when I am out and about, I'm with them, not…

It looks like they just Googled 50 popular games and then put them in an order they thought made sense. There's something really fishy about this list...

I'm another of those five people. I don't have XIII-2 yet, but it's in the mail (I live far, far away from any decent retail store), so I'll be playing soon!

I've never been McFarlane's biggest fan...but this is actually exactly what I expect from Salvatore. I've actually stopped reading his books. I've just felt that the last few I've read (The Transitions Trilogy) were extremely shallow. His writing has become very textbook, as if he has a template he uses and just drops…

The best thing George Lucas could ever do, is to ask the fans, "Who would you like to see make the next Star Wars film?" Once the collective intelligence of the internet have spoken, he would say, "Here you go, chosen by the people, inspired film maker, your turn."

I'm with you. I find it a little odd that people had to do a whole study on this. Anyone that has ever owned a dog knows they perk up every time you say their name.

You're not alone. I go nuts when Steam has a sale. How can I pass up on 50, 60, even 70% off? I have games sitting on my Steam that I bought a year ago and I haven't played. But, I love scrolling through the list, admiring the collection. I'll get to'em. Someday.

Yeah, I must be the odd man out, but I've watched some of the first series and I couldn't stand the show. Sherlock came off as a pretentious know-it-all to me. Not fun at all to watch.

I'd like to think of Kotaku as a video game culture blog. Besides all the gaming news, I like seeing articles like this that the Kotaku writers feel might be interesting to such a culture. I find most of the "off topic" threads to be good reads.

Wow. Thanks for sharing that article. This changes things. That bastard.

Wow, America. It's like watching a metamorphosis. What was once a country that inspired freedom and the dreams of the individual is now melting and molding into a government controlled socialist state. I hope those Occupy Wall Street people can come out on top, because this is an prime example of how a few people are…

You robbed us, now we're going to rob you! ... Kinda makes them seem like hypocrites doesn't it?

What, you don't like your women with a giant metal booger hanging from their nose?

It better be. Otherwise I'll be asking for my money back.

I'm with you on this one. It seems the micro-management/numbers/strategy fans have been forgotten. One of my favorite games to this day is Wizardry 8. The classes! The numbers! The choices, numbers, spells, skills, etc. It was a waterfall of greatness and all turn based. Baldur's Gate was splendid as well. We need…

Yeah, perhaps, but why the need to call it out? Why alienate whatever number of women that do play it? Comments like that make it seem like they shouldn't be, and really, who has the right to make such a statement?

I feel your pain friend. I was nearly thirty hours in before I accidentally hit the alt button on my keyboard. It was a moment of delight and agony simultaneously.

*Raises hand.*
