@Monsterkillah Actually, since videogames are a visual medium, a video review is usually superior to a written one. For example, if a reviewer claims that the games has beautiful vistas, or that it plays sluggishly, a short video snippet would convey much more information than just words or a still image.

Not saying that videos are superior per se, just that in this case they can be.

@4kgamer_lmxxx @JoInfo I think the reason is a bit different and more subtle. It seems to me that Gamespot is now consistently reviewing games not in terms of their technical prowess, but in a more artistic way. Most games here are reviewed against what the game set itself to achieve, and on how interesting said objective is. That is why you still see AAA games being reviewed in a more 'traditional' way, while indie titles get a huge focus on how affecting they are, while given a pass for not being 'cutting edge' in the technical department.

Btw, I do think this is awesome.

@jyml8582 Which is exactly why this site is so good.

I'm sure we all have Danny to thank for this. Hadn't he made that random encounter episode, nobody would have known about this game. Nice to see it rising to its true 'so-bad-it's-good' potential.

Best co-op players are those who see a team with 4 snipers and decide to be team players, so they pick spy.

Also love those who give friendly advice over chat, like "f*cking n00bs, capture the point" or "you guys suck".

@Vortigrom Lovely to see that this guy's first complain is that she's not attractive enough. You must be such a charming young man.

And people wonder why videogames still have a bad image.

@Tiwill44 And to the friendly pyro who extinguishes you with an airblast.

Could we have Mary and Jess together for House of Horrors? That'd make the show even more amazing.

I don't know how you feel about it Danny, but I think single player FPS's are having a sort of renaissance right now. Sure, lots of it is happening on the indie arena, but titles like Shadow Warrior, Serious Sam 3, Metro and Rise of the Triad have been amazing.

Steam sales are the best. They are designed to induce impulse buys, but there is a way to 'game the system': patience. If you want to play a AAA game, wait until it falls down to $20, and the next sale it is basically guaranteed to cost $5. Indie games are similar, but you can get them for $1-$3. I just have a wishlist and simply wait.

Cards are also amazing. Thanks to humble bundle games I got like $5 from selling those cards. In other words, yay for a truly free and legal copy of Skyrim.
