I don't really think kids shows should directly approach the problems of sexuality, since not only is it (at least in America) about the quickest way to get yourself off the air and cancelled, but the fact is that at younger ages it just doesn't have an impact on kids, like it might on a show...

The fact that these kind of announcements even have to be made baffles me to no end.

The biggest problem with this is that CCP has made almost no official comment on all the player rage, and it's just infuriating that they think we're just cows with wallets. However, if you're an EVE player or soon-to-be-ex EVE player, check out Perpetuumm it's like EVE 8 years ago when it...

At this point, world war 3 is pretty much out of the question. All the big and emerging powers (Russia, the EU, US, China, India) all have much more to gain through mutual support than through pointless fighting. Unless something truly improbable and egregious occurred, I'd say WWIII is out of...

Fortunately the only decent Sega game I've played in years was AvP. Here's to hoping these tards don't lead to increased internet regulation!

Well.... as long as more people play it than played AvP and there's coop like originally promised I'll be a happy man. Maybe left 4 dead style marines V aliens MP?

OMG. This is such win. Damn you Escapist, this is more addictive than those crack-laced chocolate nachos I tried.

You know what always mystifies me? These papers and news shows always complain about games that are too violent or in bad taste, but in almost all cases (there are a few rare exceptions, though) they just seem to be preaching to the converted. Most people who would take offence at something...

The stereotype that just because stereotypes aren't universally true means they're never true.

As long as it's not a straight shooter (With 'steamlined rpg elements') I wouldn't write this off completely. It would be interesting to have some sort of modern espionage game (that actually involves espionage). Actually, while I'm on this idea, what about a game where you infiltrate a...

Me. And my cat. And my cat's toy.

Speaking as an ex-WoW player (I played until Cata, maxed out, then quit) I have to say that the content that keeps players playing is the leveling stuff. Endgame works for some people, but at this point the time investment-reward ratio for endgame content is rocketing up exponentially. My...

Speaking as a once-fan of Avatar: TLA (The TV show, not the movie. Though I love JC's Avatar as well) I have to say one of the big reasons I decided to say "Fuck the movie" was because part of my pathetic youthful innocence was based around the fact that, aside from the slight subtext of racial...

Fans are not the majority buyer of Triple-A titles. For indie titles and the like, this is certainly true, but in the larger industry it's more important to have broad appeal. IE: Having a good game that everyone likes is better than making a game you think the fans will love, and ending up...
