I think all the publishers that made games for the wii, that made you use the wiimote, or the nunchucks, when you could play the games great on a classic controller (yet not supported) should be on the list.

One Piece, mario kart, punch out, yes, I'm talking about you.
Super Mario Galaxy, ya, i'm sort of looking at you also.

and about 20 other games i've played have the lamest control schemes because the publisher are NOT gamers.

How about Ubisoft's crappy DRM that fails? Should be listed.

I could go on, but BBC2 Vietnam is about done downloading...

Can't believe they're calling Epic Mickey a disaster for its darker atmosphere. That was the point. Just started the game earlier today and it's really great so far, has a Kingdom Hearts sort of feel to it. It actually has a fine balance of dark and light-hearted IMO.

Ah well, never cared for anything from Yahoo, especially gaming-related articles.

Black ops is far from perfect. It definitely should have a spot on that list.

Lol at GT5 Online.
Mind you that they doubled the bandwidth capacity two days after it's release.

The game went slow 9 days after I got it (seven days before and two days after the release). On the third release day they had already fixed the lag.
Try to double your bandwidth that fast.
And as a FIRST TIME online racing game I think they did a good job.

I wrote the initial info for this case, so that's pretty much my review. Compared to the TT Command Snow I just evaluated, if THIS case was ATX sized, I would rather buy this case than the TT...

Overall, I'd recommend passing on buying this unless you're at the store and it's the cheapest one you like. I'm more impressed by the quality of the generic Apex TX521 that Tiger Direct likes to...

Picked these up for my TRON Legacy theme build. Got the optional light bar upgrade kit(s). Note, for a quad channel package you will need two light bar kits as each covers two sticks. No issues...

I honestly love this cooler, but I think I'm gonna move on to another one soon, it just looks... A bit to bland compared to other flaming red (literally) coolers on the market.

Metro 2033 is one of the greatest FPS games ever made. Although not usually recognized as such, due to the horrible state the gaming industry is in, it succeeds largely on its storytelling,...
