Sigh. I'm an 80's and 90's kid, but without the parents willing to purchase a snes or megadrive for me, I had my grandmothers atari 2600. And I put so many hours into it. I am glad to see titles like space invaders, bezerk and enduro getting honorable mentions, as these were big time sinks for...

Well, I like your offer Jim, though I am in Australia. In light of the topic, it is true, but so is much of gaming culture. The Sarkeesian incident (speaking of which I am actually interested in watching it when it comes out, to hear a different take on the issue), the Bakhtanians vs super yan...

Awesome :)

It is like everything in life, moderation is the key. If you drink tea whilst it is still hot (above 70 deg celsius), you increase your risk of cancer to the throat due to constant cellular damage by the hot liquid. Coffee is usually roasted for consumption, so you are probably consuming a...

Hate to say it, but when people don't agree with an idea, they will even disregard credible scientific evidence. Here in Australia, I know people who feel the CSIRO (major national govt funded research institute) is full of bullshit, because the Labour government is providing funding. What they...

This seems a bit like overkill, ideally, having events such as E3, Comicon etc come on board publicly as GLAAD friendly. But if you say that there is no stigma for people who are GLBTI, I wish to point you to the many cultures of gaming that use the Fg word, the Rp word and various other sex...

Erm. Does anyone know the origins of the metal barricade across the double doors?

Indeed, it has become the same for me. I find the idea of 'clocking' a game these days to be almost impossible (Case in point, I was 4 achievements away from 100% in Forza 4, and it was only the time sink achievements left to get, then they released the porsche pack). I mean, back in the day, I...

Sex can be great. My girlfriend and i were eachothers first, and it can be great some times. But like anything, you can have off days and moods, and you both have to be in the mood on the day for it to be great. But I would not say that it is the be all and end all. I found more happiness the...

Our family got rid of our Atari 2600 about 5 years ago. I still have the floppy for Jill of the Jungle from 1992. And just did a wiki, it was made by a little company called Epic. Who now make the Gears of War franchise :)

Australia. I don't enjoy how we are handling the situation at the moment with the asylum seekers and refugees. Maybe it is just me, but when was it a crime to seek asylum in a country, or to come to a neighbouring country as a refugee when the situation in your own deteriorates? It just seems...

Psychonauts- Weird, cheeky and fun We <3 Katamari- Again, weird cheeky and fun SSX Tricky- Unbelievably fun snowboarding game. Really well done and great as a multiplayer game. Burnout revenge- drive around and destroy your car and hundreds of others too. Edit: I just remembered Summoner...
