Wow, I thought it would be mathematically impossible for me to care less about Kinect. I stand corrected.

Think positive Wombat. Maybe the Mass Effect mulitplayer will be that awesome orgy/gang rape simulator that Fox news was trying to warn us about. Maybe Cooper Lawrence was psychic. And instead of calling it the Sony Bowel Movement, I think it should be called the Sony Fuck Stick with...

Apparently the more weapon upgrades you find throughout the world, the better and more powerful his weapons become. I haven't found enough to confirm this, though. The same goes for the vehicle parts. And there's only 450 of each to find. And the game world is only bigger than Cyrodil. This...

One that everyone forgets is War of the Monsters (it's not even mentioned on that linked page), where you're one massive cheesy movie monster fighting another, and decimating a city in the process. Throwing cars and fuel trucks at each other, eating fleeing pedestrians for health, leveling...

Lefty. Oddly enough, I'm one of the only ones in my extended family. I'm also the only one that I know of with perfect vision. But I can only throw a frisbee with my right hand.

Lately I've been playing the Just Cause 2 demo non-stop, instead of Mass Effect 2. Easily a day one purchase for me. The trick to launching yourself with the gas cans is to grapple on to the nozzle rather than the cylinder, and no, you don't have to shoot it first. Still, it's more fun to...

Does anyone here know how trade-in prices at Video Games Then and Now in Norridge compare to Gamestop's? And will they pay in cash instead of store credit?

It's a Compaq SR5712F-B This page has all the specs: http://www.shopping.com/xPO-Compaq-Compaq-Presario-SR5712F-B-Desktop-PC-Bundle I also think I'd have to get a new hard drive, considering flotsam and jetsam this thing came with, but I assume that would mean buying Windows 7. (Here's an...

Hard to pin point right now. Let's pretend that I'm not exactly cheap, but reasonable at the very least.

Thought this might be a pertinent subject for many gamers here. I'm starting to become interested in PC gaming (since the concept of longevity seems foreign to the 360), but my current PC is a budget Compaq bought for a whopping $500, including monitor. Of course, it's loaded with bloatware...

I've played through the demo a couple times, and I just can't get into it. Puzzle Quest was an incredibly deep, almost table-top style, RPG with strategic games of Bejewelled replacing the typical turn-based combat. Gyromancer is basically Bejewelled Twist with a paper-thin RPG draped over it...

Just a quick question. I've got enough credit at GS to get a new game and I'm leaning pretty heavily towards this one, but I've never actually played this kind of game. I was also thinking of Borderlands, but from what I hear that game's plot is rather thin, and I rarely play online, if at all...

You should also consider Thrasher: Skate or Destroy for the PS1. I liked that game even more than the original Tony Hawk, since it did the street skating much better than TH. It's also by EA, and definitely plays like a predecessor to the sim-style Skate games.

Does anyone know if playing games off of the hard drive helps to prevent a hardware failure? I've had my 360 since April of 2008, and let's just say it's starting to show its age. I have my systems (and TV, and speakers) set up on one of these...

Unless you're like me and you already have a copy of NHL 94 that you play almost daily and that hardly ever leaves your Genesis. But otherwise, yes I agree, buy NHL 06. NHL 94 is also my favorite sports game. So much so that I haven't bought another one since. Executing a perfectly timed...
