@SovereignSky No worries, I didn't take any offence. You easily summed how ridiculous Fish's comments are...Mario!

@SovereignSky I am being very sarcastic.

This game looks better than anything Japan has ever produced!

I just started playing this the other day and I am loving it. It's a completely underrated game. Id never fail.

Doom 4 will likely be a next-gen launch title. It's too late in this cycle to release it, unless they do a big reveal at E3 and launch it a few months later. Much more likely is that they are waiting for new console announcements to reveal the game.

Nothing can contain the explosive power of red!

Nice 30 Rock reference in the title!

This is a really cool editorial. Some great gaming journalism. I liked how you are able to make your point without trying to be controversial in an attempt to get more comments (ie. the IGN editorial approach). I look forward to your next one!

The linearity never bothered me that much. My problem with the game was the terrible characters (Snow, Hope, I'm looking at you), the convoluted plot, and the absolute grind to get to the higher levels (maybe if I cared for the characters and plot, this wouldn't seem so bad). I don't expect these issues to be fixed in 13-2, so I won't be playing it. Besides, Final Fantasy games aren't supposed to have sequels!

I love Alan Wake and can't wait to play the sequel, but when I do, I will play it alone and with the lights off. Nothing about that makes me think about house parties. Oh well, who really cares about the name of the promotion.
