    Can we call games art when we're still obsessed with popularity/sales/market shares/attach rates?

    I think an understanding of the concept of Kitsch would go a long way. I have a rather creepy affection for a lot of art forms and I believe that you either have to be creating something for the love of the form or because you are trying to find some sort of truth. 99.999999% of games I play...

    What happens when you die?

    There are a lot of people here who just think "oops, you're dead!" and then roll credits. Say it isn't so- surely some of you believe that humanity has some sort of endpoint other than extinction?

    What happens when you die?

    I hope this instant replay before respawning thing is what happens, but I don't really know- if you buy into that technology/cyborg stuff then the end point is nothing but pure consciousness. To say we go in the ground and rot is ignorant- centuries ago people thought the world was flat. Who's...

    I had my most human conversation with this program.

    I managed to convince it I was a robot. We had a conversation for a while consisting of "Beep Boop." It's pretty broken though... it can't hold a conversation

    Rebecca Mayes Muses: Love Song for Yahtzee

    Bingo. I like to think people here are smart enough to know that the internet shouldn't be taken seriously.

    Rebecca Mayes Muses: Love Song for Yahtzee

    Very nice, def loved the little reggae bits I could hear in there. Shame about the choppy images, I would have thought Yahtzee would have helped you out by sending them out but then again... affectionate but honest, without resorting to ZP style cursing and hostility.

    Bioware: FF13 is not an RPG

    I think JRPG is less of a description and more of a tag that the style of game has acquired. Most RPG's have you as the fabled hero of the land; it's up to the game writers to make you identify with their motivations. JRPG's don't tend to let you influence the character's personality, but Mass...

    Apocalypse Lane: Episode 24: Cuddles Vs. The Neighborhood

    It seemed a little blurry but I suppose I have no one but Square Enix to blame for that. I thought the first few episodes were a bit extraneous but you, sir, write a good story. I'm properly hooked.

    Poll: Would you do it with an Alien?

    ^^^ win. As for me... If it appeared safe, I mean how many opportunities are you gonna get for that? Then again, if it's one of these spider-like species that eat it's mates... I guess it's death by Snu Snu though

    Games you have completed in one sitting

    Batman Arkham Asylum - both me and my bro finished it one after the other no stopping. I just thought there would be checkpoints or stop points but there wasn't any. Halflife, tag-teamed it with a friend when I was twelve. Pokemon Snap, enough said
