    E3: Mass Effect 3

    I hope you're right. I just have this terrifying premonition that the culmination of this entire epic story is going to be punching the Reapers until they fall down.

    E3: Mass Effect 3

    So wait let's see how is this going down 1. In ME1 an entire fleet is nearly destroyed taking down a single Reaper. 2. In ME2 you kill a proto-Reaper by shooting its glowing weak spot on foot. 3. In ME3 you battle full-grown Reapers by shooting them with turrets. Is it just me or are...

    Escapist News Network: Not Games But Movies

    YOU TOUCH THEM I admit: I was reaally hoping two weeks meant piles of super long ENN EXTRAVAGANZAS. These short doses of awesomeness are making me very happy for a moment -- and then, immediately after, I am very very sad.

    Has anyone else noticed the trend with TV and movies lately

    Hey, the Iron Man movies were pretty good, am I right? See now we're on topic!

    Shamus Plays WoW #5: Another Day, Another Mine

    "I don't want you to buy them. I want you to kill for them." If only storekeepers in the real world operated on this principle.

    Daily Drop: Chips & Salsa

    Man, do these guys just spend their time dropping food on the floor and filming it high-speed? How did I not end up with this job?

    Fallout: New Vegas

    Honestly, to me it felt like they just forgot to take the karma system out of fallout 3. I never paid attention to what my karma was. It doesn't even make a difference game-wise, as far as I could tell - reputation is way more important.

    Is New Vegas drastically better than Fallout 3?

    It's a lot like Fallout 3 but it does things much, much better. The main plot actually has branches and options. You can actually join the evil faction if you want to. There are a bunch of memorable characters. The setting is better thought out and (to me) much more interesting. You can get rich...

    Games you're tired of hearing praise for?

    I honestly think the number of people here who like HL2 are absolutely DWARFED by the number of people complaining about how everyone seems to love HL2. It really is amazing.

    Time Travellers are real? or were in 1928...

    Also, has this [http://hearing.siemens.com/sg/10-about-us/01-our-history/milestones.jsp?year=1924] been posted yet? Forgive me if it has. It sheds a little . . . light.

    Realism - jump the uncanny valley.

    The problem with super-realism is that it starts to look dated very quickly. Stylized graphics can still look good years later. KQ V [http://www.abandonia.com/files/games/118/Kings%20Quest%205%20-%20Absence%20Makes%20the%20Heart%20go%20Yonder_2.jpg] still looks pretty, but KQ VII...
