Think you play too many video games?

A Gamer's Manifesto

Lots of funny stuff in there.

$465 for a PS3, and with talk that games are going to run $60 each??? They can keep it!

[Fishercat]

I admit, I was amused by the rant. He's pretty right too.

Exclusive sports licenses. Say goodbye to NFL football anywhere but with EA. That's right, they signed a deal with the NFL saying nobody could make games but them. So every other pro football game, including Sega's, will be back to using fictional teams so get ready to play as the Dallas Zombies with all-star QB Cletus ****hat.

I thought that was pretty funny.

So no more ESPN NFL 2k series?

If they continue it (don't know if they are) they are going to have to use fake names. Don't know many people who would buy that game.

I don't get the halo article.

This was the best...

12. Don't bullshit us on the difficulty

Gradually tougher enemies, more enemies, mind-bending puzzles, it's all good. It's all fair. But DO NOT try to artificially make your game harder with:

Instant-Failure Stealth Levels. Ack. This brings back horrible memories of a Goldeneye level where if you tripped an alarm, an infinite number of bad guys poured forth. We knew a man who failed that level 37 times, then got the Infinite Health cheat for it and came back. He intentionally tripped the alarm, the guards rushed out. Laughing maniacally, he proceeded to shoot those ****ers for four hours, killing 1,183 of them - 682 with groin shots - before his thumbs cramped up. Your game should not create this kind of bitterness.

For those who've played Goldeneye, in the Facility level, I don't get why the scientist with the keycard shows up sometimes and sometimes he doesn't.

Man, this guy's right about the stealth faliure thing.
