Seoul was fun, but now we’re back in Tokyo for five more days to end out this ridiculous holiday.

Letting Halo go from the coolest franchise in the world to becoming something you bin off to Activision is all-time mismanagement. Its impossible to explain to someone young just how massive and, crucially, COOL Halo was. No one under 20 cares these days. Why would they?

When you hear about the last two years of this game's development, and factor in the late-in-the-day change in leadership, the scores, and the game itself make a lot of sense. It feels like it just ran out of time deciding what it wanted to be, and defaulted to something very generic and safe.

Marvel’s Wolverine is fine, but it fails to capture the spirit of the legendary character in the same way Insomniac did with Spider-Man. It's a game out of time, full of dated quest design and combat that excels in spectacle but not much else. My review: www.videogameschronicle.com/review/marve...

If you're writing stories based on something I said that began with the phrase, "don't make this a story, because this could be nonsense," then you don't even include that sentence in your story; that is absolute hack behavior.
