Pretty funny- looking forward to Vol. 2- can we address WoW boyfriend/girlfriend relationships, X-Box porn viewing, and under what circumstances controller-whipping is appropriate?

Also, very much looking forward to the review of Fart Karts 2 but can't believe they've made significant improvements over FK1-Need 4 Beans

I thought waggle was something stupid male WOW players said to describe how utterly fascinated they were staring at the behind of their female Draenei character 24/7.

C'mon guys.... you really have to PLAY the "Platoon" themed Halo level that I forged to appreciate it. You can be Tom Beringer(hayabusa armor), I'll be Willem Dafoe(eva helmet). It's really fun!

Jones, you broke rule #10 in your WiiMotion Plus article. I'm telling!

I usually spend at least 15 minutes customizing my character. Just saying.

Achievements are awesome as game-changing motivations and progress mile markers. I love being able to compare gameplay techniques with friends, see where they're at in Fallout 3 or how they tackled Dead Risng. I can see being annoyed at the points, and the "whoring" of said points. But, I'd be lying if I didn't get a certain satisfaction when my gamerscore goes up. It's kinda like the odometer on your car. It's cool seeing the numbers flip (or line up with all sevens or whatever) even though each number you add means you're that much closer to having to take the damn thing to the mechanic.

Excellent - Do you have a version of the rulebook for spouses? "hey honey ... I didn't make it up! It's right here in the rulebook..."

I agree, Gus. I think I should have worded that entry a little more carefully. Achievement Points are not inherently bad; it's the people who identify them as the sum of their self-worth that are bad. (Guns don't kill people and all that.)
I confess, I went to EB Games yesterday because I needed a copy of Overlord II and I only had the PS3 version, and f*** trophies; if I was going to play this game, I wanted the Points.

Agreed on the count of trophies. Blah.

@ScottJones:
Right, it's not the points that we abhor, it's the how-big-is-yours contests that result.

I can see character creation/customization if say, you're about to rock some Rock Band, or such.
But quite honestly, I enjoy the 'paper doll' portion of games perhaps more than the 'game proper' sometimes.

@Killstring:
By which I mean, this is fine if we're talking multiplayer - but keep your laws off my ova - ah, that is, my single-player.
Yeah. That.

For rockband I'd make an exception and extend the time from 5 to 10. This is only because I don't want to have to stare at someones ugly half done character all night during a long session
