    Your Favourite Superhero Video Game

    The Arkham series are the gold standard. The combination of incredible graphics, storylines and gameplay have made these day one, must buys for me. Arkham Knight was my personal favorite. Some of my favorite older superhero games include Deadpool - for its creativity and humor, Viewtiful Joe...

    Do you use walkthroughs?

    I use walkthrough's sparingly. Typically only when I just can't get past a certain level or boss after investing way too much time, energy and frustrations. I think the last two times I used walkthrough's were for FEAR 2 and Far Cry 3. I try to avoid using walkthrough's whenever possible as it...

    What games do you currently have on your phone?

    I was really impressed by the entire mobile experience. I had initially downloaded the game on my PC but became so addicted that I had to download it on my phone so that I could play it on the go with me. I was impressed by how well the mobile version flowed and how easy it was to navigate...

    Where do you buy your games?

    I buy brand new games mainly at Amazon and Best Buy, although I do occasionally buy new games from Gamestop or Target depending on the sale/promotion they offer. For pre-orders, I largely stick with Best Buy thanks to their Reward Zone program. I miss the days where Amazon was tax free and would...

    LucasArts Adventure Games

    The Monkey Island series of games are among my favorite of any genre and ones that I still remember fondly. They are absolutely deserving of their iconic label. The games provided an excellent mix of humor, a wide array of fun and interesting characters and tremendous entertainment. Other...

    What games do you currently have on your phone?

    The two mobile games that have taken up the majority of my time as of late are Scribblenauts Remix and Soccer Manager 2015. Both are highly addicting in their own ways, which can really eat into your daily productivity. In addition, I just finally got around to downloading Lara Croft Relic Run...

    Rockstar Games Appreciation Thread

    Rockstar has produced so many strong games through the years. While GTA, Red Dead Redemption, LA Noire, Max Payne et al often take center stage, the one game that I think is vastly underrated is Warriors. It is a super fast paced brawler with a great soundtrack and really captured the seedy...

    Rockstar Games Appreciation Thread

    I am glad I am not alone in being underwhelmed by Oni. I really wanted to like it. I know for the most part, it was universally well received, but I found the AI to be rather clunky at times and the game play was repetitive and linear too. On the plus side, Konoko did have a vast array of moves...

    Is $60 a good price for games?

    That is an excellent point regarding the cost of games 15-20 years ago. SNES games were typically priced at $50 and if I recall correctly, N64 games were priced upwards of $70 upon release. Given that the quality of games, for the most part, have increased significantly, and factoring in...

    Rockstar Games Appreciation Thread

    The first Rockstar game that I played was also Grand Theft Auto III for the PS2. I have owned every GTA game in the series and one of the highest compliments I can pay Rockstar, is that all of their games have a high replay factor. My favorite GTA game in the series is Grand Theft Auto: San...

    Is $60 a good price for games?

    Considering the cost of tickets to concerts, sporting events or even the movies, I think $60 is somewhat fair. If you get somewhere between 15-30 hours of gameplay out of the game, I think that amounts to pretty good value. I do agree that the increase in adding DLC content into games has got...

    Kingdom Hearts IV -- Rumor?

    Although Amazon has a placeholder release date for December 2016, it looks as though we may be waiting for a good while yet for Kingdom Hearts 3 as Tetsuya Nomura said earlier this week that it may be a long time yet until the game is released which is the reason why Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 will...

    do you pay for games

    In-app purchases have really got out of control as of late. It has got to the point where if there are in-app purchases, I simply refuse to download/pay for the game. I would much rather pay full price up front so I can control the amount I end up paying for the game. To continually have to pay...

    Good console games for someone returning to gaming?

    There are a ton of really good platformers to choose from, among them Jax & Daxter, Sly Cooper, Ratchet & Clank and LittleBigPlanet. If I were to just recommend the one series, I'd definitely go with Jax & Daxter. All three games were remastered in HD and can picked up for about $15. An...

    Sellers on eBay selling digital titles for a dime?

    As you so rightly say, eBay always, always sides with a buyer and is the reason why many people have stopped selling on eBay. Are you looking to buy a DLC or a steam key?

    What game do you have the most hours on?

    Hands down for me it would be FIFA. I wouldn't even like to guess the number of hours I have put in since my first FIFA purchase back in 1997. The "trouble" if you will, with sports games, open-world games and management games is that they are open-ended and never ending which can lead to...

    Is there an Xbox equivalent to MLB: The Show?

    According to the NPD sales results for March, MLB: The Show was the sixth best selling game for the month. I do strongly recommend the game to anyone that is a fan of baseball and I have to give SCE credit for continually trying to improve the game each and every year so you are buying more than...

    Champions League

    I think Barca will win the Champions League this year. It looks as though the bookmakers also feel this as they are 3/5 favorites to win. Real Madrid are second favorites at 13/4. I do think Madrid will beat Juve and advance to the finals but ultimately feel that Barca will be crowned champions...

    Nintendo NX

    There has been some discussion about the Nintendo NX in this thread on the forum. You might be interested to read through this and it may answer any questions you may have. It is definitely worth a read through in my opinion.
