    Has "A Song of Ice and Fire" ruined fantasy?

    I would suggest the "A Trial of Blood and Steel" series by Joel Shepard. It's almost historical fiction given the degree of low fantasy it embraces, and it's a very good look at political and societal behaviors of humans in a world where a "non-human" species exists during a middle ages period.

    When Yellowstone Erupts, what is your plan?

    Honestly, there is no plan anyone in the United States could have to survive this scenario. Most of the central north US would die within days if not hours of the eruption from the firestorms, ash and toxic gases. The US as a nation would collapse, and, depending on the severity of the...

    Police shoot an "armed" middle school student

    I hope this story does not result in a change in policy, local or otherwise. Statistically, it's inevitable that a teenager is going to do something which will result in their death, just think of all of the deaths due to drunk driving. Only now with the internet, everyone gets to hear about it.

    I can't get lost (Skyrim related)

    Given the human tendency to eventually forget unpleasant experiences, provided they do not result in trauma, I imagine that most people fond of the figure-it-out-yourself manner of navigation only remember those moments of triumph upon finding hard to locate items/places/people. However the...

    The most obscure game you own.

    Robot Alchemic Drive for the PS2. Remote controlled giant robots. Nothing more can be said.

    Poll: Why do you hate the Star Wars Prequels?

    Grew up with them, don't hate them, like most of them. Dislike the romance and how quickly Anakin fell. I agree that proliferation of lightsabers (and Jedi) lessens their impact somewhat, but the stark shift in number from III to IV really hammers home how effective the extermination of the...

    Favorite game. Ever. Period.

    Parasite Eve (1 and 2). Haven't played 3rd Birthday cause I don't have a PSP.

    Avatar Bias

    I dislike it when a person frequently changes their avatar. Other than that I am not aware of any particular biases that I may exhibit.

    No 'Him' or 'Her' in Preschool. Wait, what?

    This makes me want to go back and read those books I found detailing the differences between the male and female human brain. Then I could provide some useful insight into this conversation other than to say that males and females have very different neurochemistry an therefore very thought...

    you are living in the last game you played?Are you gonna be ok??

    Empire: Total War. Damn, the boring normal world and don't even get to be a semi-omniscient intelligence floating over everything and screwing around with history.

    The Most Immoral Thing You've Done in a Video Game

    Finish Morrowind main storyline. Kill every NPC. But then again genocide is cheap in video games. If it helps I often did so slowly and in creative ways that would be terrifying if done to person with real emotions. Most of these involved paralyze.

    Think he means free from the meddling efforts of universe hopping interlopers.

    Shelby Knox Wants Duke Nukem Forever Out of Walmart

    It seems to me that Ms. Knox is not so much lacking in understanding as to the ineffectual nature of her actions. It is more likely that she is attempting to further advance her position and increase political clout with her constituency. After all she's picking such a flamboyantly easy...

    So, what's your RPG weapon?

    A shotgun/sword cane, it would go well with my top hat and monocle.
