How about Mario, or Pong, Tetris and all those forefathers of gaming? The way I see it, stories should not be taken for granted in games, because it is perfectly possible to make a fun game without any real story. Matter of taste again, since I don...  [Read More]

So you're telling me that to make a great game you need a singleplayer with a rich story? Yes, that is pretty much my opinion for games that have any longevity (i.e. make you consider reinstalling them 6-10 years later for another replay). Rich sto...  [Read More]

Even more ironic is the fact that you use an outward device - the mask - to defend against an inward threat. Nice... Just too bad the mask is so ugly to wear, it's enough that the F-Man wears one. :) The only thing I could see that the Mask does is...  [Read More]
