• Sega Nintendo alliance announced for three Sonic exclusives on Wii U and 3DS

• Lightguy 17/05/2013

  @TheTingler I'm generally a big defender of Sonic stuff on here, but I have to disagree and say Sonic Chronicles and Sonic & The Secret Rings were not good games. Reply +2

  Sonic Generations and Sonic Colours were great games, so this bodes well. Reply +23

  Call me when the Ouya flops and this comes to PC. Reply +20

• Nintendo announces slew of 3DS releases, Mario & Luigi: Dream Team date

• Lightguy 17/04/2013

  @Kremlik Fair point about the Master Mode, though I was under the impression that the Collection was only ever released promotionally, that is with games or through the stars catalogue. I must have misremembered that. Reply 0

  @Kremlik I'm not sure that including versions bundled for free with new games should count though, especially as they were barebones emulations and not enhanced in any way. Reply 0

• Dark Souls worldwide sales total 2.3 million

  @null I think it's a safe bet to say they didn't expect it to sell as much as it did. Reply +3

• Castle of Illusion remake teased for this summer

• Lightguy 12/04/2013

  I never had Castle of Illusion, but I did have World of Illusion. Happy memories of playing coop with my sister until that room with all the doors which we could never figure out. Reply +2

• Fan-made Monkey Island game announced

• Lightguy 10/04/2013

  Escape may have been naff, but Tales was pretty good, so him slagging that off doesn't inspire the greatest of confidence about the quality of this game. Reply +2

• Activision "does not believe" it owns the rights to No One Lives Forever

• Lightguy 08/04/2013

  In that case, bagsy I own the rights. Reply +3

• Annualised Assassin's, next-gen and ploughing fields: the boss of Ubisoft Montreal

  I started to get a bit bored with Revelations, and I haven't found the will to complete AC3. I'm probably not going to buy AC4, at least not until it's cheap, so here's one guy that's grown tired of the series. Reply +1

• Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel review

• Lightguy 28/03/2013

  I don't even remember this game being announced, or any kind of news or preview for it, this review is literally the first I've heard of it. Am I out of the loop or something or has this been kept pretty quiet? Reply +2

• Final Fantasy 10 and 10-2 HD re-makes shown in screens

• Lightguy 22/03/2013

  I really do love X, despite its flaws. Both it and X-2 have some of the stronger gameplay systems in the series too. Reply +12

• Lord British thinks "most game designers really just suck"

• Lightguy 20/03/2013

  I'm not arrogant or anything, it's simple objective fact that I'm the greatest person who's ever lived. Reply +21

• Final Fantasy 10 HD includes 10-2 HD on PS3

  I wonder if they'll fix the slots exploit on X-2? Reply 0

• Why publishers refuse games such as Remember Me because of their female protagonists

• Lightguy 19/03/2013

  I always play as a woman if possible too. Fuck the patriarchy! *burns a flag*
  
  Seriously though, I think it's insecure guys who use games as a fantasy they want to place themselves within that have the strongest objections to being forced to play as a female. Reply +1

• Sonic Dash review

• Lightguy 12/03/2013

  @thegofp Exactly, whenever I read a review that claims Sonic hasn't been good in years, I pretty much know the reviewer doesn't know what they're talking about, given how fantastic recent games have been. (With the exception of Sonic 4) Reply -4

• UK chart: Tomb Raider biggest launch of the year so far

• Lightguy 11/03/2013

  @ExplodingClown I've been in these comment sections before, complaining when female characters get victimised or sexualised. I probably posted some messages about the game indrustry's attitude towards women back when the whole "wanting to protect Lara" and implied rape thing blew up a while back, but as it turns out, that was just stupid PR. I've played the game now, and Lara isn't just some girl who needs saving, she gets thrown into the fire, finds the strength to pull herself out of it, then goes back in to rescue her friends. Her gender is incidental. The game is very smartly written, and you should read Rab's piece about it that has been linked by spekkeh. Reply +5

• Lightguy 11/03/2013

  Turns out games with female lead characters DO sell, games industry. I hope the new and improved Lara's success means fewer white guys with shaved heads in the future. Reply +7

• Vampire MMO World of Darkness being played internally at Eve Online maker CCP

• Lightguy 28/02/2013

  An MMO is all well and good, but I'd love a sequel to Bloodlines. One of the best flawed masterpieces I've ever played. Reply +1
