I'm probably gonna buy this game.

I love how unscrambling the box art was blatantly part of the video this time.

Of course this happens on the day I renew my WoW subscription for shits and giggles....

I've recently had some issues with my Xbox 360 connecting to Live over the past couple months. While my PS3 and Civ5 have been keeping my eyeballs warm and bloodied, I wanna get around to Dawnguard sometime soon, so I'm looking for advice. My Xbox is that MW2 special edition one; therefore...

Does ANYONE pause to think about how this mess makes the game industry LOOK? Video gaming doesn't need any help looking shitty in the public eye- you don't need to HELP people who already think gaming is a kiddie hobby and not worth its due respect by acting like immature, entitled shits. This...

I find a major problem with all my attempts to get games together is that I don't know anyone who can DM. I just wanted to know if it was a common issue; I hear a lot of people don't get as much satisfaction from DM'ing as playing as a party member.

Hey folks, Just asking a quick question to any and all D&D players/enthusiasts: Could you be a competent DM if the situation arose? Thanks

Damn, Bobby- you're really good at selling your case about movies. Won't repeat any of it though, my roommate is a fan of the books.

Referring to Child's Play as a "nerdling charity" is a bit degrading. They do good work.

I am what the Internet may deem a ?Mass Effect fanboy. I?ve played the first two more times than any person should, I have strong opinions on the series? lore and characters and I?ve even given brief thoughts about reading the tie-in comic books. Therefore, it wouldn?t be too out of place to...

For some reason I feel compelled to watch it even if it is for the expressed purpose to make hipstery comments at the EB Games to feel some pathetic sense of superiority; that said, this year wasn't as bad as last year, but was still pretty bad. Everyone who won an award deserved what they...

I prefer Bethesda, but their single player "I am a lone wanderer on a quest to save the world. I am a stoic, misunderstood badass whose only friend is his sniper rifle/longbow" appeals to me. Additionally, Skyrim's depth is something I thought impossible in this day and age, and it appeals to...

Well, I'm a pretty avid gamer and a university student, and I'm on Effexor, so from my experience there is a positive correlation with regular gaming and depression.

I'm curious; the Escapist community has a large percentage of folks who are concerned with fostering and developing gaming as a legitimate artform, but how many are actually making a commitment to the industry? Disclaimer: I'm not trying to be offensive or calling anyone out on anything, I'm...

It is the scariest thing I've ever experienced and I can't bring myself to play it, so now would be the time to buy it if the game fires a pussification ray at you like it did me.
