Video games are often blamed for violent behavior. We've seen it since the release of the first Mortal Kombat, and we're still seeing it today. Feedback wants to know why. This week Blair Herter, Donell Tucker, Stephen Johnson, and Nikole Zivalich discuss why violent games are still being used as a scapegoat for violent crimes.

The affect violent games have on players has caused controversy since Pong. Games are more violent than ever, but are we? Next week on Feedback we're going to be talking about violence and games. As always, we're nothing without you. Do you have any questions about violent games, games in the media, or the emotional effects of games? Ask away!
Sometimes the gaming industry would have you believe used games are ushering in the end of the world. Many publishers and developers regularly speak out against used game sales, but used game retailers continue to sell them, and consumers continue to buy them. This week on Feedback we decided to look at the issue from different angles. As a consumer, how do you feel about used games? Blair Herter, Stephen Johnson, Jake Gaskill and Nikole Zivalich weigh in with their opinions on used games. Check it.

Next week on Feedback we're going to be talking about used games. It's a hot topic because in one camp you have publishers who claim used game sales are hurting their profits. In camp 2 you have gamers who feel like games are too expensive and not all games are worthy of $60 plus tax. We can understand both sides of the fence. As always though, we want your questions on the matter. So, please, ask away!
A long, long, time ago, in a radio room far away, the Feedback panel decided to talk about Star Wars. Blair Herter, Matt Keil, Stephen Johnson, and Nikole Zivalich all have varying opinions on the Star Wars movies, the best Star Wars games, and what the brand means to each generation.
Not all Star Wars games were created equal. KOTOR, SWTOR, and SW: TIE Fighter are amongst the greatest games ever made, but how do the other 9,000 rate?

This week on Feedback we're going to be focusing on everyone's favorite sci-fi brand, Star Wars. The original trilogy, and those other films, inspired dozens of video games over the past few decades, some good, some really bad. This is your chance to ask any Star Wars related questions you might have! I anticipate this question ahead of time, so no, the Lando versus Han Solo dance battle is not canon.
You asked us to talk about Mass Effect 3's ending, so we did. (Spoilers ahoy!)

The day has finally come; we are going to talk about Mass Effect 3's ending on Feedback. We've seen your comments asking us what we thought but we wanted to wait until more people beat the game. Trust me, I beat Mass Effect 3 the week it came out, I've been wanting to talk about it for weeks. We want all the questions you have about the game's ending, the Catalyst, the petition, the theories, BioWare's statement, all of it.
This is the SPOILER-ZONE, enter at your own risk!
