Gaming Clichés That Need To Die
MojoKid writes "The PC and console game industry is in desperate need of an overhaul. With skyrocketing costs to develop games, consumers aren't going to accept $80-$100 game titles, especially not with mobile game prices in the 99 cent — $4.99 range. Not to mention, how games are designed these days needs some serious rethinking. This list of some of the industry's most annoying gaming clichés, from scripted sequences to impossibly incompetent NPCs, and how they might be solved, speaks to a few of the major ailments in modern gameplay with character and plot techniques that are older than dirt."
Ewww..... have you seen Natalie naked (or bikinclad) lately? Just like Carrie Fisher, I'd prefer she stay covered up.
My AC stalker: " I personally agree with your posts most of the time, but that won't keep me from modding you troll"
An AC below just totally pwnd your list, but more importantly, you have terrible taste in games, aside maybe from Portal 2. Most of those aren't even in my top 50.
