    Titanfall

    Played this at gamescom. It was, in a word, awesome. If you had told me this game was going to be a launch title for Xbox One, I would have believed you. It felt very close a finished game. Now I only saw one map, and two of the Titans copied each other special guns (in development terms...

    Gone Home

    It was fun to "play." I am not sure it is technically a game, more an interesting somewhat-interactive experience. While I enjoyed it, I don't really think that I want a bunch of copies and clones of it. Part of the reason it worked for me is that it fed on genre conventions of horror in film...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Just waited 30 minutes to play 15 minutes of Titanfall here at gamescom. Totally worth it. Want to play more, definitely purchase.

    Not exactly. Our Villain player is out to win, not to create a good experience or story for the heroes. That said, D&D was an obvious influence, given my background.

    Two good decisions.http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-23712001 I always liked watching Blake 7 in the late hours on crappy local television channels. And that was long before I moved to the UK or started working for Microsoft (yeah, I know, I'm the bad guy).

    Shadowrun Returns

    Shotguns needed a nerf generally though. Played a party of 3 shotgun wielding characters. Hot knife through butter.

    Shadowrun Returns

    My basic review is that it was easily worth the $20 for the 15 or so hours I played of Dead Man's Switch. Sure, some of that value to me was in nostalgia for the pnp games I played two decades ago in college, but so what? Have of these returning IPs in Kickstarter or whatever build their value...

    Shadowrun Returns

    I have to agree. At first I assume he'd be a sort of demi-god, and kept hitting him with haste. What a waste. In those narrow spaces, any character with a shotgun seemed worlds better.

    Speaking as someone who works for a MS game studio: Thank God.
