The last few days have been quite exciting haven't they? We've had the release of the PlayStation Via, a new Medal of Honour game was revealed and Sega is re-releasing Jet Set Radio for Xbox Live Arcade.
Amongst all this excitement you fine readers have been commenting with such queries as "Wrex, would you do him?". Sure it might not be particularly insightful but it made us laugh uncontrolably for close a full minute. By our metric that's long enough to be a comment of the week.
Below you'll find some other comments that deserve to be highlighted for one reason or another. We'll leave you to figure out why...
Nintendo reviving third-party classics for 3DS
I've got Seaman on my 3DS, would you like to play with it darlin'
Nope, can't see the wives or girlfriends of gamers falling for that one.
Take away "darlin'" and then try El Mag. It's less patronising.
Can't wait to have Seaman flying out of the screen at me.
B_G_G and Seaman sitting in a tree...
I guess we should be grateful this isn't on the Wii.....
Imagine explaining what game you're playing....
"I've got Seaman in my Wii!"
Well done MD1500, well done.
Final Fantasy XIII-2 getting Mass Effect DLC - report
Great- does that mean they'll be Final Fantasy themed outfits for Shepard in ME3? Can't wait for him to sport a giant pink, spiky hair do, over sized eyes with long eyelashes and ridiculously massive-it's-almost-like-its-compensating-for-their-lack-of-manhood- sword strapped to his back.
Something's wrong, we kind of want to see this happen MrPirtniew, strickly for the lulz.
Alan Wake PC recoups costs in just 2 days
This game proves that good games get the credit they deserve, on PC. There's no excuse for developers now to develop for PCs again.
Here, here Dralel
Skyrim PS3 problems 'not nearly as bad as they seem,' claims Bethesda
A solid release? I made one of those this morning. It made a nice splashing sound. I wouldn't dream of charging anyone 40 quid to play with it though.
We're sensing some resentment in that statement tassletine. Also, poop.
Mass Effect 3 gets stunning CGI trailer
Very disappointed by the lack of Elcor acting in this trailer.
Finally, someone else who feels as strongly as we do about the Elcor. Thank you BenThomasFoster
Still think Bioware missed a beat with a "Red Dwarf" style spin-off either as a game or an animated story. Conrad Verner, inspired by his meeting with Shepherd on the Citadel, gets a broken down ship (the absolute opposite to the Normandy), teams up with that biotic Volus from ME2 who famously shouts "smell my greatness!!", "Blasto" the psycopathic Hanar who can do things with his tentacles that Anne Summers would be envious of, an Elcor with a split personality disorder (but no one on the crew notices), and a smoking hot shallow Asari who seems to "embrace eternity" with everyone except Verner.
Just an idea. Mass Effect is great, but at times a little too serious and up itself. I've been running round Skyrim killing dragons and all sorts, but theres been laughs along the way. An elcor with a big gun or a volus swinging a collectors spinal column as a weapon would have been cool in this trailer.
woodins has just blown our minds
Mass Effect 3 'Take Earth Back' extended trailer
Well now everybody is excited there's only one thing left to know before the game is out....
Wrex, would you do him?
Don't ask stupid questions El Mag. Yes, obviously!
GAME won't be stocking The Last Story at all
Game employee - "Welcome to Game, what are you looking for today?"
Customer - "Nothing particular, just wanting to browse the latest releases. Where can i find them?"
Game employee - "......anywhere but here. We can sell you Halo 3 pre-owned for 30 quid though, stop running, wait! come back!"
We wish this wasn't true Barry316
Sony signs up Playboy: Models pretend to play Vita.
Ooh breasts!! ...I'd better go and buy a Vita as that will bring me closer to the breasts...won't it!!?!
We're pretty sure that's what it says on the back of the box TheDragonDoji
Spencer Felton: FALCON PUNCH!
Rebecca Gunn: "Suddenly the Maneki Neko started to question the concept of luck"
Andy Wintrip: Great, so now I have fleas AND crabs.
Raul de Leon: Assuming direct control....#masseffect3
Dennis Davies: The inclusion of the new Maneki Neko Uppercut power-up in the HD remake of Space Invaders was an odd design choice.

Hate to see this next week, it'll just be hundreds of people asking for Diablo 3 beta keys.
Multiplayerking on 26 Feb '12 said:
To be honest, I was hoping that'd be this week. They should post all 600 Diablo III comments, just for giggles and s**ts.
Balladeer on 26 Feb '12 said:
I kinda want one now, just so I can stick one finger up at the spammers. And I'll rub it in by not using it.
El Mag on 26 Feb '12 said:
It'll get worse tomorrow when they post up how to actually get one.
Join me drinking, it'll be the only way to get through it.

Yeah, f**king sucks man. It's like being in town when the gypsies show up
Site's getting spammed to hell with people who just want freebies and will then f**k off never to return. At least the "f**k off" bit has a nice ring to it.
And yeah I'll hit the drink too hah

Well it makes a change from the "you're gay" comments I usually get. Anyway, your "decrepit" is my "sophisticated".
MrPirtniw on 27 Feb '12 said:
Bah. You spelt my retarded name wrong!
Ah, well. I'm just happy to be here.

Diablo!!!!
Balladeer on 27 Feb '12 said:
Wow.
Just... wow.
The philosophical depth within this comment, giving a sense of profoundness comparable to staring into the endless sky, combined with the light touches of humour around the edges, have blown me away. It's given me a glimpse into the futility of existence - but at the same time, a smidgen of hope for greater things to come, in this world or another.
CVG, if this isn't a Comment of this Week something is seriously wrong. I'm going to go and wipe my eyes now.

Tell me about it Bal, Shakespeare will be clawing his way back to the surface to regain his position in literature after that masterpiece
