Missed out. Ugh... But perhaps this is a sign of a similar deal from Dell later on.

I don't understand jumping to a completely new console and abandoning your loyal fan base when the PS2 has comparable graphics to the Wii. The only thing the Wii has on the PS2 is motion control, and I don't see how it'd work on a Persona game. The appeal to Atlus might be to dip into that huge...

Thanks, I was planning to buy the Rome Gold pack for $10 on steam. It's on Amazon for $10 too, but I don't really like carrying around the boxes. But I guess it's worth asking if Rome or Medieval 2 (which is the game I was talking about) will have any trouble on a Windows Vista PC? And what's...

It's huge news because they want a lot of hits on their site. Heck, if it were up to them then anything would be considered huge news. Besides, they shouldn't post something like that unless it's something they have the exclusive dig on. Almost every video game-related site from the get-go...

I used to be a big RTS player back in the day with Red Alert and Starcraft, so I'm looking to get back to my roots with the Total War franchise. So which is the better game of the two -- Rome or Medieval? I like both historical eras, so that really has no bearing on my decision.

So what's the average time for one playthrough? 6-8 hours I assume? Seems really linear because you only need to fight the bosses with nothing else in between.

Well, in all fairness if the MC dies in P4 the game is over too. It was annoying at first, but it's different I guess. A challenge is a challenge. But really, I can't imagine what they'll do with the gameplay in P5. I think P4 improved from P3 in every major way possible, so it'll be...

Are you sure you got the true ending and not the normal ending? The true ending involves tackling another dungeon after meeting up with all the people you maxed out social links with. P3 and P4 are definitely different games. Pretty much P3 is more epic from what I hear and P4 is lighthearted.

I liked some episodes of the Endurance Run (normally the short 15 minute ones), but the long ones seriously seem to drag. I haven't watched the more recent episodes, but it seems like a lot of the time they're just annoying. I can understand wanting to entertain the audience, but I found them...

To be honest, that Giant Bomb "Endurance Run" series is pretty boring and at times very annoying. Since they feel obligated to entertain the audience rather than just play through the game, they laugh and crack jokes when it totally isn't necessary -- and most of their jokes are childish and...

I've been thinking of getting this game for a long time. How's the replay value on it, though? Is it a game that you can come back to and play all over from time to time? And is the game a Greatest Hits now? I don't know why but the red label kind of bothers me.

Looking for a new copy of P4 for under $30 shipped. No eBay. Thanks.

I'm looking for a deal on this game for around $30 shipped or anything less than Amazon's $40 shipped. Thanks in advance.

Hey Cheapy, We all know that you spend the majority of your day at home playing games and caring for Tai, but who was Cheapy before CAG? Take us through what life was like before your e-stardom, such as life after college, what jobs you held down, etc. Did you expect CAG to be as big as it is...

With the loss of so many qualified people in the UGO/1UP acquisition, do you think that many of the remaining people left at 1UP will leave to pursue other things (perhaps with their laid off co-workers) much like Brad Shoemaker, Ryan Davis, Vinny Caravella, and Alex Navarro did when Jeff...
