I thought it was Tetris. :P

I'd love a chance at this. I never paid much attention to the Elder Scrolls series until everyone made such a big deal about Skyrim. I picked that up and had a great time with it; now I want to know more about the world, the lore, and the stories of the previous games I've missed out on. I hear...

Mods are pretty important. Without them, there would never have been Team Fortress, Counter-Strike, DotA, DayZ etc. As others have stated: I wouldn't refuse to buy a game that is non-moddable, at least not based solely on that, but it is very much a preferred feature. Especially for certain...

1) Do you tend to purchase a particular style or genre over another? Or will any PC game do as long as it's good or at least looks interesting? Any genre of game is fine by me, as long as the game itself is good. I'd much rather buy a solid title, from a genre I've never played before, than a...

Let me put it this way: I'm still using Windows XP.

Although I also wish those budget cuts didn't occur, I'm not sure what NASA has to do with it.

I mostly replay older games, partly due to nostalgia, partly because I seem to get a lot more fun from them. I can't put my finger on why I find them more fun, possibly due to the industry being less risk averse/more innovative at the time and coming up with more interesting mechanics. The...

Sorry, but we're using the word 'theory' in the technical sense, not the colloquial one. A scientific theory differs from scientific law only in subject matter. Evolution will never "progress" from being a theory in the same way that gravity won't either. Stating that it's "only" a theory is...

I'm thinking turn-based strats (eg: Total War, Civilization), so she can take as much time as she likes on her turns, or step away from the PC if necessary with no problems.

I give a damn and here's why: I bought this PC 8 years ago and I can still run the latest games on it, thanks to developers making their games cross-platform. If it weren't for consoles being a limiting factor I would have had to fork out for a whole new PC by now. Whether you (plural) care...

Bars and coffee shops aren't really the best places to meet new people. I'd recommend social groups like those for hobbies or a sport. Especially ones where you have to participate with other people, that makes things easier. So that could be anything from playing board games to studying martial...

Why does everyone seem to forget that Ion Storm made Deus Ex? The game often tops "best game of all time" lists, yet when the company is mentioned everyone dwells on Daikatana. Admittedly Deus Ex was Spector's thing, but as one of the company's founders I find it hard to believe that Romero had...

I've been playing the Diablo series just as long, if not longer, than this guy yet I still disagree with him. Not to mention that having played the series for a long time and being a "true super elite Diablo veteran for realz" doesn't make his argument any more valid than anyone else's. He...

In my school, completing your work to a satisfactory level was worth a C grade. When I went to college, I found out the hard way that the same level of work resulted in an E grade. Be content with what you have.

I bought the director's cut version of Kingdom of Heaven after owning and enjoying the theatrical version, and hearing a lot of praise for the director's cut. Turned out I preferred the theatrical cut, but whatever. I own 2 copies of Battlefield 2142, because the patches are retardedly large...
