Comment In: DICE 2012: The five keys to Rocksteady's Batman success [News - 02/09/2012 - 02:47]

@ John, The story was ...

@ John, The story was penned by Paul Dini, one of the most prominent and respected comic book writers working in the field today. His work on the Batman comic and animated series is damn near legendary and I d venture to say his grasp of the Batman mythos is ...

Comment In: Red Dead franchise sells 13 million units worldwide [News - 02/02/2012 - 07:57]

Ujn Hunter, I ve had ...

Ujn Hunter, I ve had more fun with Red Dead Redemption than the original by far. It is also disingenuous to call RDR a GTA-clone given how disparate it really is from that franchise.

Comment In: The Trouble with Typecasting: Starbreeze, Syndicate, and the Future [Feature - 01/20/2012 - 04:55]

Ernest, I couldn t agree ...

Ernest, I couldn t agree with you more. There s a certain expectation and even pedigree associated with this franchise that EA has chosen to gloss over entirely.

Comment In: Why I'm In the Cult of Far Cry 2 [Blog - 12/13/2011 - 06:04]

Mistake 1: Require a peripheral ...

Mistake 1: Require a peripheral to play certain games, including one of the handheld s most anticipated titles. Resident Evil Mistake 2: Charge 19.99 for a peripheral that should have been standard to begin with. Mistake 3: Make said peripheral exclusive for no logical reason whatsoever and alienate every other ...

I understand what you are ...

I understand what you are saying but in response to that clarification wouldn t it be fair to state that most games, Japanese and Nintendo included, borrow cinematic techniques to convey narrative The Mario Galaxy games for example employ cut scenes to usher in a sense of story. My reason ...

These findings indicate that violent video game play has a long-term effect on brain functioning. Wouldn t such a conclusion require a study that actually tracked the mental progression of the subjects over the course of a lengthy period of time Did they re-test these individuals at a later date ...
