The most a game has ever gotten under my skin was when I played Silent Hill 2 in the dark while home alone on Halloween. Coming out of my parents' basement into the empty and dark house was extremely unnerving.
Well that was interesting lol. It took a little bit to figure out who was who since I've never heard any of you before and you didn't introduce yourselves, though I had Chessa pegged from the begging for some reason 
And yes, Nick, sounds like you married a sailor. But good stuff! And I definitely gotta read your Killer Is Dead review now, which I obviously missed when it was first posted. I've heard all the negative stuff about the game but my attitude sounds similar to yours. How is it any different from all the other stuff Suda51 has made? Anyway, hope there's more PixlTalk in the future.
I was gonna play Alan Wake this month (last year I played Silent HIll: Shattered Memories, which was pretty great) but I just don't have the time. And though I've never heard of They Hunger, I do hope to play those other games.
I haven't seen that but it's funny how it's bigger than the phone lol. iOS 7 supports game controllers but none have come out yet. I guess third parties didn't get the software till the operating system went live. It'll be interesting to see what they come up with. If controller popularity takes off, it could make another dent in the traditional handheld market. We'll see.
I haven't picked up Dream Team yet either but I will. There are quite a few new-ish games I want but I'm waiting for Black Friday to see if I can get any really good deals.
More games! Lol. I played Uncharted 2 earlier this year (shameless self-plug here) and you're in for a treat. It's really great. I've meant to get ODST so many times and just never have. Still gotta do that. And I would encourage you to go for a complete copy of Bowser's Inside Story, though $35 does seem a little high. It's a great game too.
Shovel Knight looks awesome! I love how the music transitions from big orchestra to chip tuned. Even the font looks like it came from the SNES. I'll definitely keep an eye for this one 
I heard that the sequel was such an improvement that I wrote off the first game, but it sounds like I may have been too hasty in my judgment. You make it sound like quite the experience and for $5 it sounds like a risk worth taking.
I've never seen any of these but I'm most intrigued by Pumpkinhead. I like how you never get a very good look at him during the trailer. Keeps him scarier!
Exactly. What or who was the major influence of CoD4: Modern Warfare? Perhaps Infinity Ward would deny it, I don't know, but we know. We know.
