My question is how did manga and anime characters made it to this list (Naruto, Son Goku, and Ash Ketchum)

Gosh, who’da thunk it? Good thing we have Guinness to let us know these things.

This list is terrible, Samus is in every way superior to Soap, Crash, Nico, and Lara especially.

She’s tough as nails, has the coolest powersuit in the history of powersuits (although the new Deus Ex might give her a run for her money), destroys space predators, and has appeared in more great games of varying and fun playstyles.

Atlus: A Mini Etrian Odyssey Update Video

Quests are awesome, aren’t they? They give you purpose, they reward you, and in RPGs, they’re often the heart of things. You know what’s just as good as a quest, maybe even a bit better? A side quest, that’s what. A side quest gives you choices. It lets you take a break from a game’s main story. It lets you further explore a world you’re really enjoying.

What are your feelings on quests and side quest management in games, Infendo?

Final Fantasy Tactics drives me crazy. I’ve still never managed to get all 300 due to missing quest items and whatnot. I definitely plan on picking up Etrian Odyssey III though.

Video games seek immunity from used sales, fail to see the irony

Used video games have been around since the early ’80s. But they weren’t a problem in the eyes of developers until the middle of the decade, at which point game sales weren’t growing as fast as they used to.

Rather than blame the safe creative bets, bloated budgets, and $10 HD surcharge (yes, many games carry an MSRP of $60 these days) for the decline, developers set their sights on used game sales.
