    whatever happened to PC Achievements?

    Achievements are a nice concept but I'm afraid they are increasingly becoming the lazy way out of game development, as has been noted. Why make three hours worth of content when you can offer an achievement that requires you to do some inane task for nine hours? Three times the gameplay at...

    The Official Resident Evil 5 thread (coming this Friday!)

    My criticism that you can simply run past the zombies has to due with the fact that RE5 attempts to be a third person shooter. Considering the zombies with guns and the crude cover system I think it's pretty apparent as to what they were aiming for with the game design. If the game was...

    Any reason not to get a 360?

    Of the current systems, the 360 is by far the best IMO. Most games are available for both the PS3 and 360, so the exclusives are what really make the system. The 360 has more in the way of good exclusives. I have yet to be impressed by the PS3 game library, it seems extremely lacking. The...

    The Official Resident Evil 5 thread (coming this Friday!)

    I do not find mediocre games fun solely because they have co-op. I'd rather just play a good game. Co-op is seemingly becoming the new Wiimote, a gimmick selling point that developers hope will distract people from the fact that the games they are developing are extremely lacking. This is not...

    The Official Resident Evil 5 thread (coming this Friday!)

    The hype machine strikes again. I seriously cannot believe this game is getting such a good reception for what amounts to an average, at the very best, game. It would be in the bargain bin in no time if it didn't have the Resident Evil name attached to it, not getting 9/10 reviews. The...

    Final Fanstasy 11 - how is it? Need new MMO.

    All you need to know is that FFXI is a fucking horrible game and there is no reason to play it. You would be much better off with a doll house and some barbies.

    You have to enable vsync. That is the only way to resolve the issue.

    Running two Xbox 360s on live?

    XBL has been having problems with various issues, including recovering gamer tags, since Christmas. I am unsure if it has been fixed yet but it doesn't sound like it has.

    Xbox 360 controller + Wireless receiver

    Have you tried completely removing all the drivers and the device from your system, rebooting, and then starting over fresh?

    Anyone want to be amused and/or offended?

    TF2, Portal, and HL2:Ep2 could easily be on the list as one entry as I'm assuming just about everyone buys them bundled together and they were all released brand new at the same time whereas other collections that have been mentioned focus heavily on old content.
