    Love

    The Greek language has several words that all point to the general term "love". Eros is erotic love. This love is based a lot on sensation and desire. Such love drives those experiencing it to briefly become as one. Dating couples are a good example of Eros. Eros is sort of a selfish love: it...

    Why do people hate Mojang?

    Let's be honest. People who have any good reason to hate Mojang don't base it on the company alone. We've seen that through reading this thread. No, most people voice negative opinions on it because of the way the fanbase represents it. Let's break that down a little bit. WARNING, WALL OF...

    Leaked Microsoft Video Reveals Horrible Future for PC Gaming

    This new Microsoft debacle surely won't derail PC games like some people are suggesting. Obviously there is the Steam alternative for the core crowd, but there's more to it than that. The industry has reached a critical mass where games are being made by us, for us. There will never be a failure...

    I've got 1600 microsoft points, what should I buy?

    Monday Night Combat is pretty comparable to Team Fortress, with more condensed classes. Instead of CTF though, the multiplayer mixes small elements of Tower Defense, DOTA, and what I can only describe as "Warfare mode from Unreal Tournament 3". And there's DLC on the way, too, the first of which...

    Don't Use the Word "Gamer"

    If a person so much as mentions the name of a generalized group, be it "gamer", "hipster", "emo", or "nerd", an instant association is made between that person and the negative attitude towards something they do- but the stigma is generated based on something they only do some of the time. An...

    My Background

    *Right Click* *Set as Background* *Stare in awe for ten minutes* Back to business; I'd suppose that one's desktop image reflects their own interests and such in at least some way. The question is: ARE you a breast-crazy hentai fiend? Because if you are, and you refrain from displaying your...

    Things appearing in every shooter.

    Your point is very valid, but I gotta stop you at Modern Warfare. Both games depicted the American forces thinking they were the most important people getting shit done. However, the SAS and TF141 missions hint that the Americans were really fucking up while these guys (I think they were all...

    Do you have unreasonable standards.

    Graphics in general aren't an issue for me. What does bother me is characters. If, for example, I'm in a dialogue and the other person is talking without moving their lips, staring at me unblinkingly and looping a generic animation, I have a problem. If the dialogue itself is contrived or...

    Rare games you have lying around

    Lemme take some inventory here... -Majora's Mask for N64 (Golden Cartridge, not sure if that's significant) -Ocarina of Time, N64 -Perfect Dark and Goldeneye- N64. Perfect Dark probably just dropped drastically in value since it was re-tooled and put up on the Live Marketplace. But...

    Video Games blamed for US Massacre in Iraq

    "Young soldiers in warzones tend to say things and act in ways that we might find, uh, a little less, uh, noble or heroic than we sometimes like to believe. These are often very young kids in dangerous places." I have every respect for someone who can join the armed forces and fight a war, so...

    Game Dogs: Episode Seven: Feature Creep

    Alright. I'll give these guys credit, I'm getting into the series. A few things to consider before next Thursday... The animation is very static. Remember the picture on the videos page where each dog had a unique facial expression? If you could implement that into the animation; that is, put...

    Game Dogs: Episode Five: KCD

    It's not the greatest, but it's shown steady improvement since the first episode. I'm compelled to keep watching to see if it keeps getting better. I like that most of the jokes are relatable. Definitely a strong point to keep up on.

    The united kingdom, great britain and Britain are not the same thing?. And why so many names?

    Huh. I read about the Irish civil war, but I never knew the prejudice was as widespread as this. But I can sort of relate to it, in a roundabout way. Being an American, I do get a lot of crap from foreigners, chiefly those from the isles. We're labeled as an obese and ignorant culture, but I...

    Crossbow's......... Really that effective ?

    Or another crossbow. Akimbo crossbows, man! Two times the deadly fun. Of course, reloading would also be twice the *****.

    There's no plot!

    Thanks for the tip. I sort of got sidetracked while I was writing that. Well, yes, Borderlands is an FPS, but it claims in the trailer that "The FPS and the RPG had a baby". Which gave me the expectations of some sort of story. In truth, it was just talking about the leveling system...
