I have an exception to the "blank slates are boring" rule. Well, I don't but hear me out. Dragon Age: Origins sucked me right in exactly the way a blank-slate character never does, because although -I- was nobody, I was surrounded by such well-realized and complicated characters that I ended...

What does it say about storytelling in games that when a game gives me a "sad" ending, my impulse is to play the last mission again and figure out where I went wrong? That's what happened to me at the end of Red Dead Redemption. Sniff.

"Pay four hundred dollars for a platform that'll play all games released for it just like it's supposed to, or a few thousand dollars for the souped-up supercomputer that's required to play any decent PC title at all? Hm, decisions, decisions..."

John Marston is dead and done, long live John Marston... We miss you, friend.

I have no interest at all in "blank slate" protagonists. I understand that they make it easier to immerse yourself in a game world, but they just don't grab me the way that a protagonist with an actual face, voice, and actual personality can.

Considering how much success Rockstar had, there is no way that there isn't another Red Dead in development as we speak. And I understand that John Marston will probably not be returning. His story is done. Blessed are the Peacemakers. Doesn't change those rediculous things we call...

I'd like to see a downloadable content where you get to play as a young Langdon Ricketts, when the West was in it's heyday.... But I'm still traumatized over loosing John Marston. I swear Rockstar, somehow your outlaw gunslinger was the most relatable, most likable hero you've ever given us..

I'm not saying bad things don't happen in one-in-a-million cases. People get millions of dollars awarded in medical malpractice suits for a reason. When doctors screw up, they screw up big time and ruin lives forever. They chop off the wrong limbs, leave scissors inside patients, shrug off...

Those "complications" and "potential damage to the womb" statements are patently NOT TRUE. You undermine your credibility bringing them up.

Thou shalt not blame it on the alchohol.

Looking for converts? I'm willing to stand on a street corner and judge passersby while I hand out pamphlets.

Blame it on the boogie! I just can't control my feet. *does the dance*

I disagree. There is more to a woman then her reproductive potential. And a woman will not be judged only on her abilities (or lack thereof) as a mother. Whether this is good or bad, I don't know. So much suffering could be avoided if people just took the time to be good parents. But some...

I've heard of Abney Park, Powerglove, and RHCP. What do I win? RHCP are odd, but I don't think they count as obscure. They've been around a while, sold a few million albums and are pretty well known worldwide. My favorite obscure bands are Poets of the Fall and Resident Hero.

I've never understood the big deal about being "first" or why it makes people so mad. I am an equal oppertunity apathetic. I hate it when you'll be debating the merits of some book or TV show and someone will say "well if you know so much, why don't you go make your own book or TV show?" and...
