I wouldn't call Metro scary, just really tense. Each game has maybe 2 or 3 sections that are meant to be scary but most of the game is about claustrophobia and an inversion of what areas normally feel safe vs what feels threatening. i.e. bright sunny day on the surface is far more dangerous than...

An old Grand Theft Auto, Maybe 3 or Vice City era (I'll bet I just pissed off a lot of State of Decay fans a) for comparing it to a 15 year old massive franchise game and for b) how true it is) Think GTA 3... and think of a Knock off from around that time that did most the same stuff but was a...

I hadn't either. I liked it a lot. Solid B- of a game, only real problem is the combat felt a little clunky, but not in too bad of a way. The story is really good and the character development is nice. Get past the first chunk (D-Day), it picks up from there.

There's still FYE's around?

Kmart was the first place I ever shoplifted from. I stole an Ewok when I was about six years old... I later stole a Juggernaut in '91. Hid it in my underwear for 3 hours. It was incredibly uncomfortable.

Infamous 2 for $1.80

Because K-Mart employees exude an overwhelming sense of wanting you to go away. Worse than Wal-Mart. But either way these are the death of the retail experience. When Kmart and WalMArt complain about dwindling returns and over competitive markets this is why they can't compete with Amazon. And...

Enslaved was fantastic. Really good story, and fun platforming with solid combat. One of those games that I think really deserved the after-the-fact hype. The characters were very compelling and flawed. Ending was sad, but appropriate.

I have it. I don't like it. It is a lot of grinding, and nothing feels fleshed out. I think it would have been amazing on PS2 or GameCube, but it really wasn't up to par.

Where is my mind?

My Dreamcast is still hooked up, and Marvel vs. Capcom 2 is inside of it.

Kind of agree. Input lag was terrible and made many of the later fights in the game unbearable. Capcom is done, though. I used to give games a chance just for saying "Capcom" in the corner, now that's the kiss of death. Best you get is something like MvC3... which just makes you want to play MvC2.

I liked 'Hulk: Ultimate destruction', and it is that game reskinned. I played part 2 and got bored really quickly but beat the first one and enjoyed it. All that said, I think the game style didn't age well. A benefit of the first game is it embraced the beat-em-up mindset a lot more, and...

I always feel bad for those kids who have to walk around wearing a helmet.

I received the game last week, it's fun... not compelling though. You can see the greatness underneath, and how it was compromised to appease. this game is why I hate the internet community, I get that there was a game titled "XCOM" and you really liked it, and therefore when a spinoff was made...
