On Omar Yusuf's  Medal of Honor Multiplayer: Mediocre Shooter or Ingenious Masterpiece?
"I still play Battlefield: Bad Company 2 on the daily. MoH looks like a tough sell, but you've definitely whet my palette. If I'm paying 50 bucks, isn't that too much for simply the multiplayer?"

On Omar Yusuf's  Catching Up to Saving Private Ryan
"I agree with Mitch... in part.

I think Gearbox Studios should be commended for the Brothers in Arms series. It truly is one of the most accomplished, visceral video games developed. But Hell's Highway definitely isn't the crown jewel of the series. Road to Hill 30 traumatized me... seriously. There were nights, as a child, when I couldn't sleep.

I suppose the ESRB exists for a reason. But in my earnest opinion, the industry ALREADY has its own Saving Private Ryan in the form of Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30."

On Omar Yusuf's  Community Homework: Your Top Five Gaming Quotes
"Trust me, I'll write an article on the topic, however, I have to say....

The best video game monologue has to be the G-Man's speech at the start of Half-Life 2. You know, "Wake up and smell the ashes." What a line."

On Omar Yusuf's  A Few Short Thoughts on Voice Chat and Online Communication
"I honestly believe that the difference in cooperation between consoles and PC games stems from the social atmosphere which surrounds both platforms. PC gamers aren't necessarily more mature -- Instead, they're held to a higher standard by the PC gaming culture. On the other hand, the 360 culture almost encourages stupidity. I dont know. I play multiplayer games on the PC."

On Omar Yusuf's  Community Homework: Gamer Tourism
"It's all about New Hampshire. We have Funspot -- the world's biggest video arcade! Have you seen the documentary "King of Kong?"  Hell yes."

"These were a riot. I ought to get a twitter account."

On Dan "Shoe" Hsu's  Just Cause 2: The Crazy S*** Developers Would Try
"I just bought Just Cause 2. It is, without question, the most outrageous game ever."

On Travis McReynolds'  Yakuza 3: A Frighteningly Realistic Child Abuse Sim
"My friend bought a really offensive PC game for a sociology paper she was working on. It was called "Ethnic Cleansing" and it was developed by Resistance Records, a white supremist group. As the player, your job was to shoot, kill, or otherwise incapacitate all of the African, Mexican, and Jewish Americans in sight.

After she was done with the game, I thought that my Internet upbringing would allow me to get a few kicks out of playing it. Nope! I was instantly repulsed. Im Black myself and I'm rarely phased by racism but this....haha, well, it was too weird."

On Jasmine Maleficent Rea's  Spotlight: Fable 3, Too Many Marines, and Why Motion Controls Shouldn't Be Feared
"Great picks, all around. Hoo-rah!

On Omar Yusuf's  (Possibly) The Greatest Street Fighter Film Ever
"Im not so hot on the actor who plays Ryu. He's evidently a Chinese-American actor attempting to fill the role of a Japanese character. Not to sound racist, but fidelity is important to me -- that includes maintaining the ethnic-cultural background of characters.

I mean, I can't have been the only person insulted by Justin Chatwin's portrayal of Goku in "Dragonball Evolution.""

On Mark Hain's  Video Game Soap: Clean Your Body With Mock Plastic
"This is awesome. But a little expensive, considering it'll lose it's shape and appeal after just one shower...  ):"

On Greg Ford's  The Indie Scene: A to Z -- 'O' Yeah
"Haha James. I'm right there with you. No need to go any further beyond Passage!"
