Comment In: Next-Gen Xbox: What Microsoft Needs To Reveal On 21st May [Blog - 05/20/2013 - 11:51]

I have been living in ...

I have been living in Japan for about a month and will be here for at least 2 more years because of my job. Haven 't had a lot of time to observe, but from what I gather X-Box has a good rep but no one owns one. I think ...

Comment In: The Trouble with Immersion, or the Opening of Metro: Last Light [Blog - 05/16/2013 - 09:35]

Nailed it : This is ...

Nailed it : This is a theme park ride full of mechanical creatures. There are so many games with these issues. Not to mention, I 'm a grown ass man with a full time job. I would rather see a smaller game that was quality than a huge game that ...

Why do you like games Try to keep it short.

Comment In: Opinion: Let's retire the word 'gamer' [News - 05/15/2013 - 03:51]

We still call games....games. I ...

We still call games....games. I feel the same about the words Video Games . It sounds juvenile. But I do refer to myself as a gamer a lot. The reason being I like games. I mean to dismiss the word gamer , you would have to dismiss video games as ...

Comment In: Welcome to the club - Women in Video Games, Circa 1983. [Blog - 05/13/2013 - 09:15]

Centipede was definitely a woman 's game. I played it a lot, but I do remember when I was a kid my mom use to comment on it a lot when I played and showed a lot of interest and she hates video games.

Comment In: Our Immiscible Future [Blog - 05/13/2013 - 03:56]

Isn 't that stating the ...

Isn 't that stating the obvious I feel like this blog is full of analogy and generic as hell. So what if there is a divide in indies and those with corporate ties. We all know that and that is the way it is with everything. They are building games ...

Comment In: Should games have stories? [News - 05/08/2013 - 04:47]

If Skyrim or Dragon Age ...

If Skyrim or Dragon Age did not have a story I would be happier. I feel obligated to read and get involved, but only to realize its a waste of time. Let me just do stuff. If you want intellect, read a book. Not to say there is no intellect ...

Comment In: The Trouble and Frustration of Game Mechanics [Blog - 05/06/2013 - 09:36]

Could it be argued then ...

Could it be argued then that move, shoot, hide is the mechanic at play. The extra guns and power ups that you mention correlate with the genie from Frustration. That the genie in of itself is not a mechanical aspect but more of a power-up. The game is still the ...

Comment In: Postmortem: McMillen and Himsl's The Binding of Isaac [Feature - 11/28/2012 - 04:45]

Never played but the basic ...

Never played but the basic structure, or should I say lack there of, sounds like Oblivion from the Elder Scrolls series. The items are not required to progress, and all the enemies level up as you do. It makes me wonder why I am leveling up at all. It 's ...
