    Settings that need more love <3

    Hard to explain the setting I have in mind, really. An aesthetic and technology somewhere in between Cyberpunk and Fantastical Victorian Steampunk. The closest example I can even think of isn't even a game (yes I'm sure there's a licensed game of it...but those are usually shit and don't count)...

    Right or Wrong: Customers

    From a customer standpoint, no. HEEEELLL no, in fact. Buying something does not make me right about anything. All it proves is that I somehow collected the requisite items/currency to purchase or otherwise barter for something. I can usually admit when I'm wrong when provided with the...

    Poll: Do you lock the door to the toilet when you're at home?

    For a second I thought you were talking about a mechanism that kept the door shut as long as the toilet was in use or something. Being tired is fun. :P But anyway, no. We tell if anyone is in there by whether the light is on, since the door is misaligned enough that locking it is a pain in...

    Company

    Funny thing is, even when I play something in my living room I end up standing in front of the TV anyway, being relaxed back in my couch makes my reaction time quite shite so I can't play properly...making my PC actually more comfortable. :P But there's also the fact that the PC isn't just a...

    Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs.

    Never played Amnesia: The Dark Descent myself because I'm a coward when it comes to horror. Proper horror, not a monster jumping from a closet going "ABLOOGY-WOOGY-WOO" and jump-scaring the piss out of me before having it's face removed by one of my many handheld weapons of mass destruction. The...

    Poll: Least crappy God of War rip-off (on 360)

    Especially since it's factually incorrect, as the first DMC came out in 2001, the second in '03. I'm not much for either series but I dislike when people don't research things like that (took me all of 10 seconds to go look that up on wikipedia). OT: Out of the group I prefer Darksiders, but...

    Poll: Anyone else hate the Skyrim animal races?

    I'm mostly indifferent to both Khajiit and Argonians in general, I focus more on the character than the race. For example I felt kind of bad screwing over the Riften Innkeepers to get into the Thieves Guild, they seemed nice. But if a random Argonian (I've had this happen, his name was even...

    Skyrim DLC Ideas Announced

    Came to post this, essentially. No-where did they say "this will be (paid) DLC". They said it might be DLC of some vague nature. It was an in-house creativity drill done for fun, and they decided to show it to the public for ze lulz. P.S. Since when was it standard to assume DLC is paid by...

    [UPDATE] Best Buy Leaks Potential Diablo III Release Date

    For as long as I can remember it's been "When it's done, now stop asking or I'll turn this car around, young man!"...then again I've only been paying attention for the past few years or so. :P

    Your childhood game!

    Toss up between FF9 and Crash Bandicoot, really...still have them both in the living room, actually. xD

    Is anyone else tired of the FPS genre?

    Well, "FPS" is sort of just an inaccurate blanket term people like to throw around. Yes it can be applied to a lot of things, but that doesn't mean it should be. I classify games like BF3, CoDBLOPS (no not the most recent, I just find the abbreviation "codblops" funny), and their ilk as MMS...

    Dark Souls for PC: Petition

    Depends, how fancy is it? And does it have a feather? I shall only settle for the best cake-hats! There's also the issue of inclement weather and whatnot, or a strong wind if it's a particularly large one. o.O

    Dark Souls for PC: Petition

    Always nice to get a perspective from the other side, and I apologize if my post seemed somewhat condescending...it kinda does now that I read it again. I also find the "dude, just build a PC" people annoying since when you don't have much disposable income, building a semi-decent (a good GPU...

    Dark Souls for PC: Petition

    To be honest the console "fanboys" here are just as bad as the PC "elitists" they're railing against. We aren't here to start a flame war over stupid biases and idiotic vendettas against people we don't know because they have a slightly different opinion. It's all very hypocritical and...

    Google, Yahoo, Facebook and Twitter threaten to go offline over SOPA.

    Heard about this yesterday, and personally I think this needs to happen. But a day won't do it, a week may be overkill (if still effective). Either way I think it's a good idea, this is one of the few situations where stirring up the hornets nest is the best solution. Our governmental system...
