It's my turn to talk about the most hateful playstyle in shooting games, and I'll uncover if this dubious tactic deserves all the hate from the online community.

Eternal Sonata is such beautiful game that is really hard to hate even for those not really into JRPGs. In my case, this game holds some annoying nuisances that have kept it in my backlog of unfinished games for way too long; here’s why.

Considering how expensive videogame development is becoming, it's getting harder to ignore how smaller and more simplistic games can do more than a dent to the AAA videogame industry.

My quest for uncovering the misteries of cheap strategies in gaming lead me into reviving the experience I had while playing Halo Wars through Xbox Live. Should you still be playing a game you're not longing enjoying? Read on!

We all know about cheap tactics, game glitches, and physics exploits; they’ve always been there and they always will be. In this article I'm not inviting you to embrace cheap tactics, but asking some people to stop complaining about them.

Degrading and worthless Achievements for the most idiotic Halo players you can find on your team.

Now that Bungie has relieved the lead on the Halo series, 343 Industries have the choice of continuing a decade of tradition or putting an end to its nightmare.

While the people in charge of our online game services are still developing ways to keep trolls away from our games, I came up with a few simple features that should either keep annoying people away, or at least persuade them to tone it down a bit. Read on.

Watch Microsoft banhammer cheaters, pirates, and common trolls the hell out off Xbox Live...and then tell them why. It's fun!

It's hard to avoid getting frustrated every time we have to share our games with idiotic players. This article will be addressing the kind of gamer that’s responsible for a great deal of the nasty behavior we see in online gaming...those darn kids.

Batman Arkham Asylum deserve my respects not only for being a AAA game with outstanding combat mechanics and an esplendid exploration oriented gameplay. This game has also brought me closer to understand one of mankind's greatest mysteries: Women.

The team at Xbox Live is now awarding special licenses to Xbox Live users who are deemed idiotic enough.

"Wel, I guess is up to everyone's choice. I just tried this game yesterday because I'm still debating if I should buy it or not, so the tutorial helped me to have a good idea of all the things I'll be able to do.

Still, in the end I'll probably would back your idea of the pages being slowly unlocked, it adds a better degree of progression to your playthrough."

"Thing is, publishers are quick to devise ways to hurt the second-hand buyer; buy they're still figuring out how to reward the original buyer."

"Now I see I should have been more specific.

What I meant is, since I played Chrono Trigger later than Eternal Sonata, they both felt like they were developed around the same age.

Chrono Trigger didn't make me feel that exhausted, but Eternal Sonata did it somehow, by now the genre should know better."

"I think it's too early to think that Angry Birds would be the most remembered game of the decade, but I wouldn't mind if it did.

Even Miyamoto expressed his good impressions on the game: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/116770-Miyamoto-I-Wish-I-Made-Angry-Birds"

"Star Wars Rogue Squadron III; the last game of the series, and the definitive worst. Somehow they realized that taking control of those spectacular starfighters from the Star Wars universe wasn't enough, so they added the excitement of climbing your from your ship and battle on foot against mindless armies...

Yeah... Everybody wanted that..."

"Oh, man! I know what you mean.

My girlfriend kept avoiding random encounters in Eternal Sonata up to a point the bosses ended up ridiculously strong.

And when I played the game, I fought every enemy on sight, and the bosses became stupidly easy. Level systems need a nice redesign to keep things competitive."

"This interview just came out: http://www.wired.com/gamelife/2012/04/keiji-inafune-qa/

It's not far from what (almost) all of us agreed on this topic... Or is he just generalizing?"
