I think a girl who plays video games is more likely to be cool than one who thinks they are stupid, but I think girls who make a big deal about being gamers are not much different than the now dwindling presence of girls who make a big deal about being girls on the Internet. Any girl who...

You mean the way we pay taxes on something that was taxed when it was bought by the store, taxed when it was made, taxed when the materials were purchased, and then pay property taxes to keep those things? Nooo, that will never happen. Especially in a world where all that taxing can't even...

This sounds exactly like those 'game' ads on web pages. I haven't seen an ad in years so I don't know if they're still around, but back in the day it was hard not to punch the boxer or swat the fly or what ever click based thing got you to 'win' and open their page up. It worked on me up until I...

You know Yahtzee, I remember you making a call to developers to have a "luck" bar instead of a health bar and I believe the Ego bar sounds about perfect. You couldn't at least say you were pleased by that for what it was? I haven't played it yet so I don't know if I hate you or agree about the...

It's not elitism. Many complaints that he made can be the result of a poor computer. When he reviews an XBox game it's totally fair to tear it apart because an xbox is an xbox. People with old out dated computers shouldn't expect to be playing new games at all. I have an 4400+ dual core. My...

I feel the need to add that many of your complaints about the game could very well be the result of your laptop struggling to run the game. Especially your reports of slow reactions or perceived improper ones. Now yes it's all well and nice that in the console world you put in a game and just...

Dude. Yahtzee. BUY A FASTER FUCKING COMPUTER. You are not qualified to review PC games on your outdated LAPTOP. You're wasting everyone's time even bringing it up. You can't possibly know if a game is compelling or even worth playing if you're not getting the proper experience. I love you...

Piracy does exist on consoles. It's not nearly as mainstream as pc pirating because there aren't huge devoted fan bases ready to hold your hand and all but install the crack for you. Consoles have to be broken, and it's tricky business. So not every bob and john is going to so much as attempt...

Sadly Piracy is one of the biggest things putting the game industry in a pinch. Developers like Valve have found ways to survive and even flourish in the new game economy. Others just aren't fairing so well. But basically, Piracy drives down revenue, which drives down potential profit...

I see that now. Its a little less obvious when it's almost june and I linked from another article. I don't make it a habit to check dates when I read though.

Ummmm, DlC, a fresh idea? Is this a joke?

On the one aspect, claiming trade rights on your media is just evil. But wanting to protect their hardware from software piracy is completely legitimate. If pirates wouldn't religiously thwart every effort at DRM, they wouldn't have to take such extreme measures to prevent it.

Hmm, some how I am the tough woman. I think they got everything right but the gender. What ever, they're usually lesbians anyway.

I'd like to add to the a.i. debate. The Replicants were genetically engineered. They were created artificially from organic material. So, are they a.i. or synthetic intelligence? I voted for skynet because it is the most powerful and ominous on the list. Any old computer can dominate a...

I think Duke 3d had it right years ago. You could find medkits that were portable, and keep them with you. I realize D3d also had stationary health pick ups in two varieties, but I think the traveling kit solves this complaint effectively. Resident evil had a similar approach by pretending...
