Curious how the tone of this thread has held up. As I said in the Black Friday thread, I held true to my promise earlier in this thread that I'd wait for a sale because of the impression the demo gav...

I waited until the day after the PSN Black Friday sale and then finally bought Resident Evil 4 at full price instead of $20 off. I also kept putting off taking my tips to the bank so I could cover my...

Now that I finished and have been digging into some behind the scenes stuff, one of the more stunning accomplishments of this game is how seamlessly they integrated the original voice actor (Darling f...

What little I know about Booty comes from the various times he came up in anecdotes from Giant Bomb staff over the years, some E3 @ Nite appearances and his late cameos in the PsychOdyssey documentar...

As a total "please don't scare me bro", I'd say the horror is generally at a Resident Evil level. It's mostly driven by lighting, level design, art direction and sound while the game itself is more of...

Edit: Before basically just repeating myself to echo later comments, I do want to mention that I love how thoughtful the back end of the game's pacing seems to be. Without saying much about why, a lot...

I've got nothing at all against the combat, it feels as if they basically imported Resident Evil 2-2 into a Last of Us game, but I've also gotta say this is the third game this year where I'm so glad ...

Well, it's definitely very much a survival horror game.The first couple hours of this game are pretty fantastic, though I was soured a bit by wandering in circles for what felt like an hour because I...

Alternatively, both my launch controller and the one I got for some two player stuff a year later are still very awesome. But I also never saw fun glitches in GTA3.

@marino: if Rousey beats Fox, it’s only because her role is much more prominent. Fox isn’t just flat, she sounds like an American overdub of a Chinese action movie. Except she’s in an American action ...

On the downer side, this game seems to remain capable of producing some pretty remarkable glitches from innocuous sources. I've had the visual glitch caused by Silverhand's first attempt to bumrush y...

I'm going Cool for...whatever reason. I want to be Cool, I guess? From my memory of the original version of the game, Normal difficulty is hilariously stupid so I'm not too worried about my attribute...

I thought I couldn't just turn around and leave the dungeon I thought I was stuck in from my last post, but once I remembered I needed to wear a mask to go back through the door it didn't really matt...

XBox doesn’t have the same Spotify integration PlayStation does? It’s not always ideal, as some games fully mute their soundtracks rather than allow you to render them subtle beds for your chats of ch...

Because the current conversation here is about the difficulty, I'll just say: personally, while I enjoyed about 10 hours of the medium difficulty, by the time I was discovering mini-bosses, let alone ...

I don't have super strong opinions about buttons, really. I can get used to most layouts and sometimes even find learning new locations for old things part of the fun of playing a new game.But one of...

@mellotronrules said: @bladeofcreation said: I guess what I'm getting at is this: whether or not one agrees with my personal takes on media doesn't really matter to me. What matters is someone at leas...

As a former music critic, a lot of what compels me to purchase games I might not otherwise care much about (Deathloop being the most recent example that comes to mind) is simply discussing the hows, ...

@mellotronrules: Oh for sure, whenever I find room to hint at how I'm having a blast despite deliberately creating a character that plays into my own interests but makes the combat less blunt than I'm...
