Alan Wake busts into box form on April 3 in North America

@Timjoy

In terms of overall quality, it matches them both IMO. The storytelling is superb, the gunplay is (for me anyway) extremely satisfying and the send of place and atmosphere is one of the most convincing I've ever felt in a game. I was still thinking about Alan Wake weeks after finishing it.

Not to be missed, IMO.

Art in service of gameplay: Gravity Rush

Y'know, that actually makes a lot more sense than what I suspect the real answer would. Kudos!

I have far more of an issue with the stupid high-heels than I do with the skimpiness of Kat's outfit. I mean, you'll see a ton more flesh than that on your average trip to the beach - hell, with the current popularity of tiny denim shorts you'll probably see that much skin in your local shopping centre.

The heels on the other hand are just dumb and utterly impractical. That said, I'm still desperate to have this game in my Vita asap.

That you have poor taste in television?

Goldeneye 007: Reloaded wants to prove it isn't an old fogie, so it has dubstep

@AssassinJordi
I thought so too. I'm not a fan of dubstep AT ALL, but the classic-meets-techno sorta feel it had going kinda feels right for a Goldeneye game.

Honestly, who gives a sh*t why people donate, so long as they donate.

The Witcher 2 Digital Premium Edition to have no DRM from GoG.com

While it's lovely that they're doing this, I do wonder if the gaming community as a whole isn't just going to take advantage of them for their troubles. I hope not.

Sesame Street: Once Upon a Trailer

This is pretty cool. I hadn't really thought about it until now, but do young children deserve crap games any more than the rest of us? Kudos to Double Fine for reaching out to an unconventional market.

Dear Esther HL2 mod remake to be commercially released this summer

God yes. I loved the original mod and I've been watching the dev blog for this on and off for months. Immediate purchase.

Get sad on the cheap with Tale of Tales' pay-what-you-want sale

I think this debate all comes down to a few simple points.

1) Research your games before you buy. Read reviews, listen to forum chatter, watch clips. If you don't think you'll like it, don't bother to buy it. Everyone wins.

2) Don't let labels like 'art game' or 'interactive experience' influence or bother you. Art is subjective, so getting hot under the collar cos one person says it's art and you disagree gets you nowhere. Either play it or don't.

3) Be open to new experiences. For me, The Path was half simple exploration game and half puzzle of understanding. I played it by writing down what I saw and heard as I played, and by the end it was clear that the real meat of the game was in understanding what it was all about. What has happened to each girl? Who is their 'wolf?' Where did they go wrong?

@JohnyZuper: Thanks for 'The Path'. Keep doing what you do :)
