| Sorry to burst your innocence bubble, but Secret of Mana (along with every other retro game in existence) has been available for download in multiple dark and scummy corners of the internet for at least three years. |

| This kind of thing is why I haven't bought a 360 in the first place. Who do microsoft think they are, releasing a console before they finished it? The Wii wouldn't have been even half as popular as it *was* if it wasn't finished before it was released, so why does everyone tolerate this crap from Mi... |

| I'm no retro gamer, and have left the horrible ages of the past behind me for better or worse. That said, the worst game I've ever played that I can actually remember is Age of Conan. Honestly, the game tries so hard to mimick World of Warcraft that you would think the first expansion pack will intr... |

| Just remembered a few other important ones... Back when I first got my hands on Fire Emblem, when I was about ten years old, every time one of my characters died (they never came back, mind you) I would sit there with a knot in my stomach while watching the overly emotional cutscene of the character... |

| Games like wow and D&D seem to have many more of the sad moments than other games, even if only because so many people (aspies or otherwise) use RPGs as their primary form of socialization. The grief is almost unbearable when I meet someone online that I have oh so much in common with, then one ... |

| I've never played fear since I don't have the money to buy every single survival horror game on the market, but I understand what you mean. Games where you have teammates, but they die by some terrible twist of fate that you were unable to prevent, then the game makes you feel like it was entirely y... |

| Although I'm still only a teenager, I don't honestly believe I will ever have a girlfriend. I've never experienced love of any sort before, the first and only kiss I've ever had wasn't at all stimulating, and the only neurotypical friend I have is a year older than me and has had his girlfriend for ... |

| I've had those moments. The worst for me was the end of HL2 Ep2, since I had a death in the family. Agreed there, I took the ending of HL2 Ep2 pretty hard, especially since it offered no indication whatsoever as to what happened next. My horrified shock was downplayed a bit in retrospect however, w... |

| Okay, so I'll be honest, my entire life revolves around video games. I often get so engrossed in them that if something horrible happens (an important character dies, for example) I'll probably come closer to crying than if, say, one of my grandparents suddenly croaked from a heart attack. I made th... |

| This kind of thing rears its ugly head all the time in Real Time Strategy games, since it triggers a voice response from your units every time you give them an order. A particularly bad case of broken-record-syndrome was in Warhammer 40k DoW, playing as the orcs. I find anything Warhammer endlessly ... |

| I've recently gotten my hands on a Wii and although I don't have a 360 or PS3, I find that I must vouch for the Wii. The controller is intuitive and fun to use (albeit sometimes a bit unresponsive) and the games make great use of the specialized controller. Right now I only have a couple of the laun... |

Sadly, after recently pawning off my old copy of Halo, I don't have any of those games.
However, I'll soon be working on getting a copy of Supreme Commander, so beware, the Colossi are coming. |

| I tried recording a portal speedrun once. It wasn't that bad for a while - had 24 minutes on the clock at the end of the last test chamber, but somehow I ended up falling into the fire. Even worse, my game had autosaved literally half a second before I dropped dead, and since I had the number of aut... |
