Lack of Variety in Console RPGs
Joe Fielder / Site Director
"I refuse to believe that console RPGs need to be mired in conformity like they are."

 
Attack of the Clones
Greg Kasavin / Executive Editor
"One thing most every MMORPG now in development has in common is that it will be an utter commercial failure."

 
Reinventing the Wheel...and the Dragon Punch
Jeff Gerstmann / Executive Editor
"Would you kick Capcom's staff in the stomach until they redrew their characters and released Street Fighter IV?"

 
Happy Birthday, Super Nintendo
Amer Ajami / Senior Editor
"I'm as excited now as I was 10 years ago when the Super Nintendo was gearing up for launch."

 
Role-Playing Games are Going...Where?
Andrew Park / Managing Editor
"To paraphrase what a friend of mine said to me at the convention, 'As long as a bunch of nerds are willing to get together to play D&D, Gen Con isn't going anywhere [other than to Indianapolis in 2003].'"

 
Not Just a Community of Cheaters
Sam Parker / Hardware Editor
"I must admit I mostly stopped playing the game because being constantly vigilant of saboteurs made things less fun overall."

 
Chasing Imagination
Trey Walker / News Editor
"...tying up enemies in order to take them prisoner seem like obvious actions to take in certain situations, but they prove to be too complex for most computer role-playing games."

 
Advancing the Game Boy Advance
Giancarlo Varanini / Assistant Previews Editor
"...a rather large crowd had gathered around my seat and started to praise the system and ask questions about it."

 
Game Players Anonymous
Tim Tracy / Assistant A/V Producer
"The only reason I keep on going is to find out if Zell finally gets the hot dog he's always getting gypped out of."

 
Bang for the Buck
Craig Beers / Downloads and Media Editor
"The objective was to fall to my death on a ledge halfway down, and then send my body sliding off and falling the rest of the way down in slow motion."

 
Money for Nothin' and Kicks for Free
Gerald Villoria / Codes Editor
"What makes up the exchange rate, from gold pieces to US dollars? Whatever a sucker will pay for it, apparently."
