I've been playing this game since it went Free-To-Play… is it worth the subscription? Maybe but it is definitely worth FREE!

Comment on Xenoblade is Coming and This is Why You Should Give a Damn by crunchychocobo

crunchychocobo — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 16:28:11 +0000

+10 for the ludicrous speed reference. The game does sound like fun, but alas, I sold my Wii last year. Guess you'll have to poke me about another JRPG. :D

Comment on Xenoblade is Coming and This is Why You Should Give a Damn by Olympion

Olympion — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 01:07:05 +0000

I'm an European gamer currently playing through Xenoblade (95 hours of playtime so far) and it's an absolute masterpiece, a must-buy game for any Wii owner! Even after hearing a lot of good things about it and seeing all those glowing reviews I still wasn't prepared for just how magical an experience Xenoblade has turned out to be, Nintendo should have been promoting this game as one of the best RPGs on the marked and a system-seller for hardcore gamers, instead of treating it like some insignificant cult game at best.

Comment on Hands On: Diablo III by Matt Pearce

Matt Pearce — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 01:02:13 +0000

Thanks for the comments, Gabriel!

In the beta the Wizard doesn't have any spells that are specifically melee. There are some close-range spells, but nothing that utilizes the wizards weapon for attacks. However, the beta limits characters to a maximum of level 13, so I haven't gotten to use most of the Wizard's spells. In addition, the beta doesn't give you access to the new rune system which drastically alters your spells and their uses.

I can also say that Blizzard has previously stated they want people to be able to play the game in a variety of ways, and at one point showed off a short clip of a melee wizard. Whether or not a melee wizard will be viable in the final game, I'm not sure yet :)

Comment on Weekly Poll: Which Uncharted game was the best overall? by tin cifrek

tin cifrek — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 10:27:55 +0000

i think uncharted 1 was the best for it's storyline becaouse it twists at the end with zombies , but i would say uncharted 3 becaouse the story is great too,gameplay is awesome(chrushing plane scene) and the graphics are best than in other two games so uc3 is the best in my opinion

Comment on Hands On: Diablo III by Gabriel Nepenthe

Gabriel Nepenthe — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 20:47:29 +0000

Thanks for the preview!

I had heard somewhere that one of the avenues a player could explore with the Wizard class was to mix melee skills in with the spells.

Did you notice anything like this?

Comment on Weekly Poll: Which Uncharted game was the best overall? by Nathan McClellan

Nathan McClellan — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 19:10:36 +0000

It really has to come down to Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune or Uncharted 2. For me, the series is so great because of the plot and detailed cutscenes. While the gameplay of shooting, climbing, and solving puzzles is also great, the plot makes Uncharted unique. The first Uncharted was by far the best plot in my opinion. It was suspenseful, complex, and kept me guessing all the way until to the end. Uncharted 2 also had a great plot but not quite up to the standard of the first. You were not as encapsulated by the central mystery in the second game. Yet, Uncharted 2 greatly enhanced the gameplay to make levels more fun along with online gameplay that was missing from the first. Uncharted 3, again does a wonderful job in the gameplay part but for me the plot is rushed and many facets of the storyline and characters are underdeveloped. If Naughty Dog makes another Uncharted I would still be impressed if it was in the mold of the third game but I would be ecstatic if it was more like the first two.

Comment on EvilCast Recap, Episode #110 by grumbel

grumbel — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 13:40:46 +0000

About the Witcher 2 thing: People weren't complaining because they were doing something against piracy, but because they where doing so with blackmail and asking extraordenary high sums while doing so (i.e. more then you get for actual theft from a shop). Furthermore their claims of being 100% correct with their evidence is just plain false. All they have to work with are IP addresses and IP addresses don't identify people, they identify accounts. Thus the person getting the blackmail won't be the pirate, but father, mother, brother, roommate, WLAN owner or whoever happened to own the Internet account (assuming they even got the right account, which they often didn't in similar cases).

Comment on The Top 10 Video Game Villains Of All Time by Cheesyraindrop

Cheesyraindrop — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 02:49:51 +0000

Alright guys only 10 villians could be picked so dont be upset if the ones you thought deserved to be on the list, weren’t. These villians are well deserved and I believe sephiroth should be at the top. Great game, great character, great villain. But I do think some characters were more deserving to be on the list than others. Ganon, wesker, pyramid head, and dracula were all some of my favorite ones. either way this list is okay in my opinion. Only a few I don’t agree with

I'm the exact same way with my video game collection. I keep absolutely everything and have a story behind each game I own. I've only ever traded 3 games because I had no link to them and didn't want the junk in my house (all Wii shovelware sent as freebies).

Epic console, not many more provide as much fun as it used to do the N64.
Shame on the Wii, it has let us all down. I blame the relatively new president of Nintendo. Bring back the old one.

Comment on Are bosses even necessary for video games anymore? by pointlessmatters

pointlessmatters — Sat, 10 Dec 2011 16:16:40 +0000

I kinda agree. I like the sort of "Mini-boss" fights you get in games like Skyrim. A guy at the end of the dungeon or quest who's clearly better than the others… but is actually more powerful, rather than just having 2x health.

I can't wait to get my hands on this. It has been years since I played MGS2, and I never did get the chance to try out any of the games after that. Glad to hear that this HD port is worth it.

Comment on Community Question of the Week: What game has the best level design? by Pete

Comment on Community Question of the Week: What game has the best level design? by Josh

Josh — Thu, 01 Dec 2011 08:42:14 +0000

I'd say there is far too many awesome designs in gaming to take that too any real consideration as "the best". It's ENTIRELY dependent on the game itself as well. Don't get me wrong, I love the Unreal Tournament 3 levels, but can you imagine playing them in an RPG? That would be awful!

Comment on Review: Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (PS3/360) by John

John — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 21:28:44 +0000

Yeah, I'll agree with the A-. I kind of sucks how it was just re-released under a year, but I guess that's just how Capcom is. However, I definitely like some of the new modes as well as the change in fighting gameplay with the gems. It definitely reminds me of Marvel Super Heroes how there were the infinity gems. Great game overall.

haha i bought shogun 2 in the u.k the day it came out and installed and played upto 44 hours. a few months later the wife and i moved to japan to live. when i tried to play the game here in japan, it would not start. i contacted steam and the creative assembley and they kinda just hit me with it should work, and because i had already installed it before i moved etc etc. then i realised there was no dlc for me, and that i was not updated with the new big patch, and as i can not have any downloaded content including updates, no play. also, there is no where else i can get the patch. only automatically on steam. sort it out guys!!! plus, i have empire total war too.lol it plays fine!!!??? whats up with that???

I know I'm just begging for people to say, oh well, she's a girl so of course she cried, but yes, I have cried during video games. In Lost Odyssey, so many of Kaim's memories were so sad, I know I cried at at least 80% of them. I had to play with a box of Kleenex handy. Oh and then there was the ending to Crisis Core. Heavy Rain jerked many tears. Even inFamous 2 got me choked up with both endings.

Arkham City certainly does sound like an exceptional game, I can’t wait to finally play it. It’s crazy to think that its taken until Rocksteady got their hands on the Batman franchise before one single good superhero based game was released.
