It seems to be a pretty good year for role-playing games. Skyrim, The Witcher 2, Deus Ex, Dark Souls, Diablo 3, Mass Effect 3, Guild Wars 2; and I'm sure I'm missing any number of great titles here. But something tells me that it'll be either Portal 2, or Arkham City that takes the greater...

Why we like robots. <YouTube=7yieEyG6iZ0> Plus; Battlestar Galactica.

Deleted; sorry about double-post.

Red herring, it is. In all sincerity, however; we SHOULD feel bad about these poor sods starving. We SHOULD save up money, and send a little bit to medécines sans frontiérs (or french-named organization of your choice) once in a while. And we SHOULD try to keep the element of surplus value...

I hate to seem like an attention seeker here as I posted a note on this just earlier, but don't slander Bioware and their romantic sub-plots until you play Baldur's Gate II. It's definitely the epitome example of HOW to use sex in a game. Also, I happened to find the romantic plot for Bastilla...

Alright, alright.. 40 K Space Marine armour, that should.. Well, realy be enough to survive just about anything. Weapon, a bolt-gun, a high-automatic weapon that fires small rockets that implode inside an enemy? Count me in! (Bayonet please included, preferably a power-bayonet!) As for...

MUAHAHHA! My last opponent I defeated was an all-power Chaos Lord, posessing the armour of a tank, and the ability to drain life from his enemies. Also, with the upgraded Armour of Inferno, he can use his Galaxy in Flames ability to set an entire army ablaze! And the object to my left is a pen...

A MINIATURE GIANT SPACE HAMSTER! NO GOD DAMN QUESTION ABOUT IT! Seriously, Minsc is my hero.

I only really know one game in which sex has worked well, besides the aforementioned Heavy Rain, and that would be Baldur's Gate. Especially in the sequal, sexual relations with the other characters had a large impact on how they treated you afterwards. For example, your beautiful drow companion...

The game has gotten a lot more coverage in europe than the states, strangely enough. I subscribe to a german game-magazine called "Gamestar", and there's already been two, three 10-page previews on the game. It's more or less really the internet side that's lacking, but who knows, gamestar's...

They're releasing a batch of screen-shots for every 25'000 likes? I think I see a flaw in their plan, let's do some easy maths. 12 million WoW subscribers, one batch of screenshots for every 25'000. Let's see here, that makes.. 480 batches of screenshots. Poor blizzard devs are gonna' be...

This week wasn't easy, and it's only tuesday. Got up at 3 am, today. Which was a LOT of hours ago. It's currently 11 am here, and I'm enjoying a cup of coffee at a brighly lit room with the sun shining in; and all I can think about is how much I want to sleep. I usually get up early, so it's not...

gmail.com imdb.com wikipedia.com deadairspace.com (radiohead's personal site) and the number one; Giantbomb. And because I'm paranoid and fear getting put on probation, Escapist as number six. (It really is, I swear.)

Seeing as you bastards went ahead and picked Radiohead out of the list. (Grumble, grumble; I've got one or two things to share. First of all, who knew that Radiohead singer/song-writer/god had made a solo-album and was in a super-group with Flea From Red Hot Chili Peppers, among others...

Dead Space, Dead Space Extraction, Dead Space 2, Dead Space 1 on Insane difficulty 6 times, and Dead Spacve 2 on Zealot difficulty 2 times (so far). Also Left 4 Dead, love everything Valve pumps out.
