Annoying promos...

I feel storytelling works best in films and books, and gameplay mechanics amount to rules and the vehicle in which to navigate the world. But it is the world of a game that really sets...

    Looking for good Xbox 360 exclusive/console exclusive games

    That new halo 4 info- Uhh 343.... What are you doing?

    Yeah, Halo is moving more in the Call of Duty direction. Not necessarily bad as long as these elements are properly implemented. We'll just need to see how the game feels once they release it. As long as it still feels like a Halo game, I will be satisfied. I like the fact people can join...

You have excellent public services, great and from what I hear free schools, good music, beautiful scenery and one of the highest standards of living in the world. Obviously cold and little sunlight in the wintertime are the...
