Someone needs to 'shop on Owen's happy wheelbarrow face, it'd be hilarious.

With all their somewhat crappy HD re-releases lately and the ones on the way that are just as bad, I'm more of the opinion that they are nothing if not pandering to their wallets.

I usually don't log on, but with that comment I have logged on and you get insta-hearted for this comment.

Gut Checks aren't telling us if it's worth our money or not, it's an "off-the-cuff impression of what we think of a game: what we'd tell a friend; how we'd respond on Twitter or Facebook or over a beer if someone asked us 'Would you buy this game?'" These are in no way reviews; for the lead writer's gut check it's…

Are you asking him to stifle his opinion about a game just because he's never played it? I've never played Saints Row: The Third, but I think I'll love it based on what I've seen and my past experiences with the franchise. Is it wrong for me to say that?

I don't understand why people get upset about the one person up there who hasn't played the game. None of us had played Skyrim before today but tons of us had Yes votes all ready to go for that and most other releases this year. Just because he hasn't played a game doesn't mean he hasn't seen anything on it and his…

I'm with Luke on this one; it's the same reason I'm not buying it.

Although FFVIII is my least favorite FF that I've played, I do love Liberi Fatali. Really good pick.

Wow, I didn't even think of Marc Blucas but seeing him now really makes me agree with you on this one. Good call!

I think Mr. Martin would completely approve of the Zeppelin.

Luke you're the man for showing me that Joffrey/Tyrion video. I watched all 10 minutes of it.

Me too! Uematsu's best work was in that game!

I also love VI. I can understand it's groundbreakingness. Maybe a better sin would be "I didn't really care at all when Aeris died."

0:33. I didn't think FFVII was very good. However, I love FFIX.

Just picked up a copy of Lost Odyssey. Hadn't heard of it until a couple days ago, so I'm going to give that a go this weekend.

One of my friends suggested the same thing. And yeah, that guy made my first day of Kotaku absolutely wonderful!

In the middle of A Dance With Dragons currently, good enough read so far. Also just finished rereading Dune by Frank Herbert for the 4th time, one of my all time favorites.

I actually just got a Half-Life 2 gift from a nice Kotakuite who had one lying around and saw my previous comment. I'll have to check out Orange Box at a later date. Thanks!

Just got Steam and am going to purchase the Orange Box ASAP.

I had heard great things about it, but sadly have been out of PC gaming for quite some time. Thanks for the info!
