    Poll: Does Anyone Have and Still Use a Zune Product?

    I've had a Zune HD since I was a senior in High School 4 years ago, and I'm a big fan of it. When I first got it I talked about it so much that 3 of my friends picked one up too, they all like it as well. Mine seems to be on its last legs though, unfortunately. Battery life is starting to...

    Poll: Books that would make EPIC GAMES!!! (how would you rate mine?)

    Came here specifically to say Wheel of Time and Night Angel. According to wikipedia Obsidion is supposed to have a WoT game in development, but I've never seen anything about it anywhere else.

    Poll: Who IS buying the Xbox One?

    I won't pick up either for a while yet, and when I do I'm going to go along in the same direction as the group I currently play with; I don't have any brand loyalty to either side, but with the announcement of FFXV being multiplatform, Sony no longer has any next-gen exclusives I'm interested in...

    Favorite Books (excluding Rowlings and Tolkien works)

    Exactly this. Wheel of Time is the biggest reason I'm still such a big reader. Also, The Night Angel Trilogy by Brent Weeks, it was recommended to me in a thread here a few years ago, and it's become my go-to recommendation ever since (besides WoT, but that's a bit daunting for some people...

    Most memorable opening line in a game

    Yeah, I enjoyed quite a few of the monologues/mission briefings from MW2, and that one was probably my favorite.

    Poll: (avatar TLAB) Choose your bending discipline

    For my part, I'd most like to be an Earthbender, which coincidentally happens to line up with my personality pretty well.

    MW3 no different than MW2....(some MW3 gameplay)

    And mine as well. Innovation is a wonderful thing, especially in this industry, but everyone here is obviously familiar enough with CoD as a series to not expect innovation from it, yet they still ***** about the absence. From my perspective it seems like they're deliberately setting themselves...

    Did Twilight really suck that much?

    Well, I read the books, because I'm one of those people who tries not to be all judgmental of something until I've partaken of it. My general perceptions of it were that it's not the horrible piece of steaming literary crap that most internet users would have you believe, but it's not the...

    MW3 no different than MW2....(some MW3 gameplay)

    I've been wondering the same thing for the past four months, the one time I called someone out on it they came back at me with 'I'm not biased, I just like [game's title here] better, so [other game] just sucks. I repeat your -.- good sir.

    Is Hitting A Girl All That Bad?

    I once tried to explain that, and everyone blew up at me like I was a madman. I took five years of Karate as one of 3 boys in a 12-person class, with one of two teachers also being a woman. I got over the naive little 'don't hit girls' mentality real quick. If someone wishes to be violent...

    Will MW3 be the next CoD4

    Technically, you're showing your own bias with that last statement, where you say that favoring one franchise over the other is common sense. Common sense would be more along the lines of just general tolerance, I think, an acknowledgment that it just comes down to an individual's preference...

    Will MW3 be the next CoD4

    Wait, what? have, you played either MW game up to this point? One ends with the only survivors being a Russian, a Brit, a Scottsman, and ONE (1) American after the rest of the teams have been massacred. And the other ends with America still technically occupied by the Russians, and heavily...

    Will MW3 be the next CoD4

    You have a fair point, but I've been in a large number of BattleField matches where the only way to win is to sprint across the map to the objective, because if you try to take cover and pick your shots, you'll get annihilated by the helicopter that's been circling your spawn all match. But...

    Will MW3 be the next CoD4

    Can we all agree to stop using that cop-out excuse because we don't want to get into what we actually dislike about a series? I've heard it regarding everything from New Vegas to GTAIV to Reach to Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012 to AC Brotherhood, and on and on and on. There's nothing wrong...
