    Is 'The C Word' Sexist?

    This is the equivalent of saying we need the sun to survive but it's not a good idea to stare at it: it's that bleeding obvious. A lot of things can be used for terrible purposes, that doesn't necessarily make it bad, and I think on this we agree. **** is not an evil/sexist word, but it can be...

    The Argument for Apathy

    There comes a point in one?s life where they have seen the same debate enough times, heard everything that can be heard about a subject, and finally reach a point where they just absolutely positively stop giving a crap. This whole gender issues thing that has been raging across the internet for...

    Anyone else *INSANELY* disappointed by Bioshock Infinite?

    Nevermind, actually read the topic. Still, dude, it might help if you didn't use melodramatic phrasing in the thread name.

    In your opinion, what sci-fi story do you think will be the most accurate for our future?

    Not this again. Look, I know Idiocracy is touted by pseudo-intellectuals as some great prophetic film but really it?s just a comedy movie. It?s a good comedy movie but it?s just a comedy movie, and frankly the only way humanity would collectively be brought down to that level of stupidity is if...

    The Walking Dead season finale (Spoilers)

    Frankly I was disappointed with how the season ended given that they've been building up to the prison battle for the entire second half of Season 3 only for it to be short and not really all that epic. I know the prison fight pretty much ended up with everyone dead in the graphic novels but...

    Game of Thrones Season 3 Premiere: What Are Your Thoughts? *Spoilers*

    Things seem pretty consistent in my opinion though that is just my opinion. I am greatly enjoying the scenes focused on Daenerys and Jorah, also the twist at the end made me excited to see what's going to happen next. Melisandre is the mutant priest of a Lovecraftian abomination so it's totally...

    Poll: Weapon degradation - yes or no?

    No, mainly because it's implemented poorly. Items typically have too little health (Oblivion, Fallout 3, New Vegas), have ass-backwards methods for repairing (Fallout 3, New Vegas - whoever thought sacrificing items to repair other items was a good idea is an idiot.), feel like pointless...

    Poll: Getting Dark Souls for my friend; good decision?

    Hey, if he accepts that it'll be difficult, go right ahead. You two might have fun, personally never got into the Souls series. Just do your best to kind of get him up to speed on how to play the game before he gets so mad he attempts to cave in your skull with the controller. o.O

    Saint's Row 4: You are the president with superpowers and a dubstep gun

    I'm sorry but lacktheknack, calm the hell down, we're not trying to take the game away from you. We're simply stating that we are personally displeased with the direction of the game, we're tired of the new 'SO WACKY!' fanbase hand-waving away our concerns by telling us to go to other games. If...

    [EDITED]how would you react to a distopian ending to a game

    I believe I am going to get flak for this but hopefully not, I'm going to compare the endings of two games (Mass Effect 3 and Dead Space 3). The gist of it is that it really depends on the tone of the game. The longer explanation is that, things like Mass Effect 3 where things are bleak...

    Did the new Penny Arcade story make anyone else uncomfortable?

    Baneat, that's a bit unfair don't you think? Penny Arcade isn't stooping to the same lows as CTRL-ALT-DEL and I'm a little offended you'd even insinuate that; of course I'm one of those people who hates the author so...

    So What Do You Guys Think of the Slender Man Movie That was Funded by Kickstarter?

    Actually, Slash, he doesn't seem that very popular. Sure you can bump into stuff about him every now and again but normally you aren't going to get knee-deep into it unless you actively seek it out. I personally am ambivalent to the whole thing; I'm a fan of eldritch horror but the Slender...

    Skyrim: Stormcloak or Empire?

    The choice for me is a bit more complex than other people, it seems, as my reasoning isn?t a stock ?siding with the guys who tried to kill you is stupid? or ?the Stormcloaks are racists?. First of all, I play a Breton, so I can be neutral in-character (before someone brings up the Forsworn, they...

    Poll: Teaching a giggling gaggle of girls how to use guns

    I agree with Keoul on getting to know the people you may or may not decide on teaching. Personally I would be quite angry if someone did this without my consent and I'd outright refuse and make a point to lecture them on why they should ask you first instead of putting something together, it'll...

    Saint's Row 4: You are the president with superpowers and a dubstep gun

    I am afraid I am in agreement with the people who are not pleased with the direction the Saints Row franchise has taken, while the developer has every right to do as they please, I have every right to choose to stop buying their products. The Third felt like the silly side murdered the serious...
