    very true, they should've used those Japanese Saturn commercials in the US. Segata Shanshiro is FTW!

    My all time favorite series is Metal Gear Solid. Other favorites are Final Fantasy and Fallout.

    I pay my respects to one of my favorites: Mortal Kombat.

    I've loved almost every game in the series, including spinoffs.

    As for the writing, yeah it sucks but I didn't go in expecting much.
    Oh, I'm not bashing the gameplay. Sonic Unleashed was a decent game in parts and a horrible game in other parts, but if you compare Robotnik to Sonic in terms of character quality, Robotnik wins hands down. Every single bloody time.

    I agree. The villain usually ends up more interesting when bad writing is involved. See, the villain is almost always flawed, causing the audience to feel more of a connection, and since Robotnik is more of an important character than Sonic (Sonic being nothing more than a vehicle to bring Robotnik's story full circle), his story ends up better.

    It's the same problem with Superman. You know he'll win. You know he'll be the same when it's all over. You know he's immovable and unchanging, and that's what makes him so boring.

    Sonic, like Supes, has no real flaws. He's cocky, he's brash, and not the sharpest tack, but those are merely quirks and personality traits that have no real bearing on even his own story. If Sonic had ever faced any real loss (like say, Tails dying), he would have been infinitely more three dimensional, because then he'd have a conflict. Then, he'd have a true reaction, and a true change to his character. When a character has scars, and when a character GROWS, that's a good story. Or at least a better one than Sonic's ever been granted.

    Completely agree with you there. That's why everybody loves Kratos!

    For me it has to be Doom, especially I-Final doom with Final Doom being the best. It took all the great music from the first two and put it all together into one extremely difficult game

    Grand Theft Auto is probably my favorite series of all time. I just like how much shit you can do, and the games are funny.

    Fallout, Thief, and GTA. Pretty solid.
