This is also probably a great time to remind folks

That being said, there's also times when it's good to have a front page story where people can ask about the site and the changes coming.A couple of very important reminders. All commenting rules still apply. Try to be intelligent in your discourse, avoid ad hominem attacks and name calling. This isn't license to attack the site or its staff, replica Longines L2.642.4.73.6 Men's Watches merely a post that is about Kotaku. Consider it a place where you can ask questions of the site's policies and make suggestions about changes you'd like to see made.There is no promise that will we do what you ask, but we do promise to listen and to talk with you about your concerns.

This is also probably a great time to remind folks of one of our cardinal rules: Stay on topic. We don't want you coming into this forum to talk about your favorite games just like we don't want you in a post about culture or gaming or movies talking about our editorial decisions.Post off topic and you'll get a warning, continue to post off topic and replica Longines L2.643.4.51.4 Men's Watches you'll get banned.OK, with that out of the way, ask away. Do keep in mind that while I can talk quite a bit about the beta, things are still in flux and I'm not completely in the loop.”In another universe, they made a box containing Red Dead Redemption that's just for me. The front is familiar. The back, though, boasts the kind of bullet points I might demand of a great video game:

-Respects Your Intelligence (Because it doesn't bore me with some easy and obvious macho super-hero of a main character.)-Is Beautiful (Because why make a video game Western that doesn't have the best sunsets, tumbleweeds, wild horses and shot-off hats I ever saw in a game?)-Is Fun To Control Even When You Wouldn't Expect replica Longines L2.643.4.73.6 Men's Watches To Be (Like when you're tracking a cannibal, talking to a man who might be the devil, shooting birds, or herding cattle during a lightning storm.)-Has Negative Space (Since the wonder of the American West is magnified by its immense size, and therefore, when made into a video game, should be a place of grand vistas, slow gallops, and long trails at the end of which may lurk either grizzlies or civilization.)

Games have always required some degree of a suspension

What I'm trying to say is, doesn't the story of a game like Red Dead, lose realism when you're killing 30+ outlaws while clearing a single hideout? Marston, our hero, is literally a mass murderer. Admittedly, I wouldn't want it any other way. Gunplay was what made that game so much fun. But this brings me to question Rockstar's next release. How replica Longines L2.705.4.23.2 Men's Watches realistic will it be if the player ends up killing dozens of gangsters while raiding a hideout? How many shootouts in the streets of LA would it take before a police chief suspends a detective's badge? Shouldn't it take just as many bullets to kill a detective as it would to kill a gangster? Wouldn't a detective have some moral difficulties with killing even one man?

Games have always required some degree of a suspension of disbelief. With Rockstar pioneering a new technology of facial animation, they are ultimately trying to lessen that degree. So should gameplay mechanics (like killing hundreds) follow suit?About Speak-Up on Kotaku: Our readers have a lot to say, and sometimes what they have to say has replica Longines L2.142.4.51.4 Men's Watches nothing to do with the stories we run. That's why we have that little box on the front page of Kotaku. You know, the one with “Got something to say?” written in it? That's the place to post anecdotes, photos, game tips and hints, and anything you want to share with Kotaku at large. Just make sure to include in your comment so we can find it. Every weekday we'll pull one of the best posts we can find and highlight it here."

"Sometime within the next month Kotaku Beta will become plain old Kotaku. Now's probably a good time to host another Kotaku Editorial Board to discuss the changes and try to answer some of your questions.One important thing.

Right and left to change articles, up and down to read them. Makes a big difference.We held our first Kotaku Editorial Board back in July, but with the advent of the Kotaku Editorial Board tag page, it didn't feel as necessary. Myself and the other writers have tried to stay on top of the comments, questions and requests left in the running forum page instead.

Eric: Of course not. It is not even 10% of what we intended to do, but the li killed us!Ouch. Watch the videos and cringe. Superman 64 is bad.

Noire got me thinking: How realistic do gamers actually want their games?There is all this talk this generation of immersion and games' capacity to captivate the player. A mechanism often attributed to this is realism and a great story. But how realistic is a game when your character ends up killing literally hundreds of people throughout a campaign?
