Exactly. One shouldn't allow one's imagination run too wild off of PR talk. Microsoft is simply working the whole online angle in order to set the next Xbox system apart. They believe that online is...

I can do one better. I still have my Coleco and the Smurf game. Not Zaxxon though as I did rent that game and played it so hard I got a water blister on my thumb. But I do have Miner 2049'er and the...

Well, I'd at least partially agree but I'm not sure what any of that has to do with the number of years between generations. At any rate, obviously the winner is the winner regardless of how they get...

Come on, the whole 'Touching is Good' campaign might be funny, but it's also incredibly tacky. Honestly though I don't see why any real gamer would even care about this stuff. It's all PR crap dreamt...

Everybody does publicity stunts of one kind or another. Hell, the whole E3 seems a bit like a publicity stunt. As for too early and it being just an upgrade: just take a look at where the Xbox is...

Ever play Wonder Boy III:The Dragon's Trap? I think it's one of the best games that no one played. The TG16 version is called Dragon's Curse and it's probably the definitive version if just because...

Well, Final Fantasy VII didn't come until after the PS1 had been out for a bit. I remember that it was the game that put the PS1 on the map as far as RPGs go. Up until then the pickings were pretty...

Since the adventure games tell stories that are most like a book or movie it seems reasonable that an adventure game would be able to most easily translate into a good film. By adventure I mean real...

And thus we have come full circle. Because the peons are supposed to be easy the complexity of the combat system must be reduced to keep those easy battles short. Simple...

I think this movie was the right step for Pixar to take. It's still funny but it's not as much a comedy as the previous films. And it feels as though the movie is just a little more adult than the...
