I love how HD looks but it also hurts the hell out of my eyes. after about an hour of playing a video game I have to look away from the screen for a minute. Anybody else get that feeling? Only time that has ever been an issue for me is when I got flash banged in Rainbow Six Vegas and basically the ...

I'll second F-Zero GX. I don't like racing games, but that one was a blast. Hard as fucking hell though. Pretty much all the Nintendo franchises on the GameCube are worth playing and virtually nothing else. Starfox is excluded from that list although I never played Assault. Honestly the only decent ...

That makes three so far.
What are the other two? Heavenly Sword is like 5 hours long, Lair apparently sucks, flOw is a neat mini game not worth a 600 dollar console. What am I missing, future titles?

Isn't Alien Hominid and the new Castle Crashers game 2D sprite based HD games that can run in SD? How do they do it? Alien Hominid is only 50 or a 100 megs. Oh and the difference between 360 games and Wii games graphically is staggering. I also bought the HD DVD addon and that kickass too. Even the ...

I think hacking is an annoying unnecessary pain in the ass. It'd be cool if it didn't come up so often.

From what I've played, which is only about an hour (I killed the first boss then saved and haven't touched it since do to homework and other things) it looked really cool, but kinda felt like another FPS. I have faith that the plasmid combos and specialty ammo and all that other crap coming will mak...

I played it for a half hour or an hour. After my roommate beat what I think was the first boss until you get to the first planet is how far I played. I didn't like how you had weird looking teammates and what not, it does kinda conflict with the Metroid feel. If you are alone on the planets though t...

My new roommate has a Wii and he bought some component cables and hooked it up to my oh so sexy tv. The unstolen one. Anyway, he bought it the other day, but I haven't had a chance to play it yet. I got Bioshock last week so I want to finish that first. Also if I never played Echoes is that terribly...

There is a guest profile thing, but I dunno if that particular game uses it. You can sign a guest into Live with your profile, but to deal with games like Bomberman I just keep a few dummy profiles.

Well we couldn't possibly be the only ones that thought Samba on the Wii would be a good idea. I wonder how they managed to figure out the height detection though assuming this is real? Other than that I don't see how anyone could screw up the sequel to a rhythm game. Just add more songs and maybe s...

I agree with Rlan that the Marge tear-jerker scene was awkward, but overall I agree with Popcorn.

I downloaded it, but haven't tried it yet. I've never been much for turn based combat. However after watching an Eternal Sonata video, I want to play that just to look at it. It's probably the prettiest game I've ever seen, as far as cel shading goes anyway. Btw, Opa, I bought the GameStop branded c...

I got component cables for my PS2 and used it with my 50 inch DLP and it looks great. I was amazed how good the original Devil May Cry looked. I have a feeling a Genesis game would look like complete balls, but it would still work. They all have coaxial ins.

I am pretty sure you can use any USB keychain to save stuff to your 360. I heard that somewhere, never tried it though. As far as the 360 failures go, a lot of consoles freeze with certain games. Mine for instance always froze with Perfect Dark Zero, but the same disc ran fine on a friends. The disc...

That's one nice thing about the 360, even though its a failing piece of shit, they'll fix it for you. They extended the warranty up to three years now if the right fuck up happens. I sent mine in right before the year expired just because I could.

Last time I checked ebay you could get a third party one for pretty freaking cheap, this was a good 12 million years ago though. I'm too lazy to check again and I assume you already did.

Oh and I wasn't a huge fan of Grid Wars. Everyone keeps telling me to try out Pac Man CE so I guess I'll download the trial ...
