    Mass Effect 3 Writer Allegedly Slams Controversial Ending

    Child's Play aren't taking any more money from it because people were asking for their money back. People thought this was essentially a kick-starter, and when they found out it wasn't, said "Why the fuck should sick kids get shit when I don't?" A charity turning down money? Yeh, that'd be...

    Gamestation Defends "Sexist" Ad

    Also, at what point would it be more reasonable to ask someone to retire than to take down a fucking sign, one that probably cost all of fifty bucks for the entire run?

    Gamestation Defends "Sexist" Ad

    What most of you are conveniently failing to remember is that, viewed in our social context, interpreting this as "You are cheap, this game is cheaper" is perfectly reasonable. Let's say I said, "Codblops is easier then your mom." It doesn't matter that, in a literal sense, I could argue that...

    Canadian Government reverses CRTC decision, and saves the internet

    What do you need more than 95gb of internet for a month? Like, reasonably? How many legal undertakings do you need more than 95gb of internet for? Five people live in my house. All of us are students. We pay 55 quid for a 60gb limit. Four of us play World of Warcraft. Even when, in one month...

    CoD and Teamwork

    \If you want more team work, try Battlefield Bad Company 2. While it still suffers from the greater internet dickwad theory a little, there's much more teamwork.

    Ridiculous Gaming Stories

    Aye, I'd certainly suggest getting a hold of some tips. I was playing the adventure mode of Dwarf Fortress once, since it's the one I tend to have most patience for. Sesta Freeaces, a human wrestler, was the name of the latest poor shmuck who was being foisted out into the world to have his...

    Why do you rage quit?

    If I'm getting angry, it means the game isn't doing its job right. This might be the fault of the other players, or of some problem with the game design, but either way I play games to have fun. If it stops being fun, I am done. Not that simply losing is enough to make a good game stop being...

    The Ladies Get Some Payback in Hey Baby

    The worst (Or best, I can't decide) part, for me, is the guy who leaves behind a headstone that just reads "RIP. I love you." That seems...odd? Yeh, I'm having trouble believing anyone would be serious about this.

    Scariest Moment in a Game?

    I'm surprised no one has said Ravenholm. Maybe it was just me, and maybe it was the fact that I hit that place just as night fell (And seem to manage as much every time. It's a knack.), but it was pretty terrifying. EDIT: Ah! Ninja'd. Well done, sir. I had the benefit of only having time to...

    Prince of Persia Opening Weekend Stumbles

    How on Earth did it miss the point of the games? It was in the same "Arabian Nights" vein, written by the same guy, and featured the same McGuffin. It was a retelling, a new story with homages to the games. That's the only way to make a good video game film. Movie Bob was wrong; Maybe it didn't...

    Pakistan Bans Facebook Over "Everybody Draw Mohammed Day"

    Gah, beaten to the punch. Last page didn't load. This is me shutting up.

    Tell me something I don't know...

    What people are that? On topic: The reason certain types of plants contain cyanide is because (If I remember my learnings correctly) it is used in the process of 'deciding' how high the plant should grow. I can't for the life of me remember the correct term, but essentially the plant grows...

    Red Dead Redemption Upsets the Irish

    I'd just like to say that the Herald is a rag, a tabloid, and doesn't speak for all of us. Most of us are more reasonable than that, and understand that the rest of you are all too willing to accept that when we're not drunk we're fighting. We have accepted it. In truth, people here, as...

    Pakistan Bans Facebook Over "Everybody Draw Mohammed Day"

    Picture a thousand people all gathering together to draw Jesus on the cross sodomising children. This is what your page has achieved. Many of you who support the page speak of the propaganda surrounding Islam. You rage against an entire religion, an entire region of the world, because you...

    Poll: What piracy is actually doing

    Okay, to the people arguing that piracy doesn't hurt sales because you're not taking a physical copy; it hurts sales because you are then not goign to buy that physical copy. If there are more 'products' (products here including pirated copies of the game in question) available to people, demand...
