LATEST FEATURES Being A Console Is Actually Xbox One's Worst Asset
Microsoft's newest console has lots of different features, but video games might hold the device back from the software giant's true intentions.

Everything I Learned About Call of Duty: Ghosts Last Week
I wasn't allowed to talk about the new Infinity Ward game last week when I met with Activision, and I don't have much to say now that Xbox One spilled the beans.

Before Microsoft and Sony do something regarding their future in the video game business, I wanted to write, and I've wanted it for a long time now, but other things kept getting in my way, and fearing that tomorrow might be too late, today will have to do.  ...

DAILY MANIFESTO

The People Speak - A Good Day To Speak

Posted on Wednesday, January 2 @ 17:30:00 Eastern by

When we first started The People Speak, it involved a nomination system that didn't exactly grab the GameRevolution commentariate. That's OK. One thing we understand is that convenience and ease of use are keys to success in the internet age. Why bother nominating your fellow commenters when you could just... I don't know... NOT nominate them? That option seems a lot easier.

To improve on the original idea (which was basically just that our community is fucking awesome and people need to recognize that), The People Speak is now entirely determined by GameRevolution's comment rating system.

Every wednesday, every comment in the past 7 days will be tallied up and the 5 highest rated comments will be featured here, in The People Speak. That means all you have to do is rate the comments you read with a thumbs up or a thumbs down.

Pretty simple right? Staff members are not excluded from our weekly list, but to ensure this week doesn't repeat itself, it might be a good idea to down vote everything I say. Let's get to this week's top comments:

Your Stack Of Shame: What Do You Want To Tackle From Your Backlog First?
13 Thumbs Up - 0 Thumbs Down

KERI FINISH ARKHAM CITY RIGHT NOW

10 Thumbs Up - 0 Thumbs Down

Just picked up Far Cry 3 and I'm loving it. You know a game is good when you stay up until 6 in the morning playing it, only to get lectured by your gf about waking up too late in the day to spend quality time with her... And then do the same thing the next 2 nights in a row!

You're playing a dangerous game, Chuni! And I'm not talking about FC3.

#4 Sourdeez
Your Stack Of Shame: What Do You Want To Tackle From Your Backlog First?
7 Thumbs Up - 1 Thumbs Down

Dont play ac3 if you expect a good story
Arkhum city is a must play though.

#5 Fieperskaivu
What Are You Playing? December 29th, 2012
6 Thumbs Up - 0 Thumbs Down

Finally done playing nice with the family, now time for Halo 4, Black Ops 2 and Skyrim. Plus gotta get around the humble indie bundle at some point. And playstation all stars once I round some people up!


The People Speak is a weekly spotlight on the GameRevolution community and all of their beautiful feedback on the week's news, reviews, previews, and topics. Don't forget to down vote your competition!

    The sad part is that top comment is retarded. Who finishes the sequel first? Jackass...

    So it's overall score? As in 7 up and 5 down is only +2 and would be beat by 6 up 0 down?

    Yes. Sourdeez got the #4 over Fieperskaivu due to more Up votes despite the equal balance.

    Of course the classy thing to do when one wins the competition that one is hosting, in order to circumvent cries of cheating, is to graciously refuse first place and award second place the win.

    Seeing as how you're such a classy gentleman Dan, I graciously accept the first place award. Ahh it feels good to be the best.

    Are you tallying the net upvotes (thumbs up - thumbs down) or just the highest upvotes?

    Net up votes with total up votes breaking ties if it comes down to it.

    You should also do the worst one (most net downvotes) for kicks and gigs.

    Oh hey, I predicted TPS coming back when Daniel was like, "I know you know Anthony, but do you know what I'm talking about?" or something like that was said.

    I don't think I'll ever win this award. I don't usually leave clever comments because I view these articles in the middle of the night. By then, all the good comments are taken and I'm either left with "That Sucks" or "I like Pie".
