I really don't think it's neccesary to stray from the first person perspective in order to have satisfying combat, they just need to improve on the feel of the combat. If they give the combat more of an 'impact' feeling it would already be a lot better. In Skyrim you're mostly just whacking...

This is partially because of English not being everyone's primary language. In Dutch for example, a lot of words ( including "CD's" ) are actually spelled with an apostrophe in plural form. Funny thing is, most of these words are not from Dutch origin. What tends to annoy me is people who...

I think I would have to say Gearbox Software. They get mad props solely for having created the game that (by chance) truly got me into PC gaming, James Bond 007: Nightfire. Aside from that they've created several solid games like the Brothers in Arms series and the Half-life expansions. Of...

I get the feeling ( that means it's a guess, I could be wrong ) that most of the people who are calling Borderlands bland and unoriginal haven't played the game for more than 10 hours. Borderlands is quite a vast game, and I think its biggest flaw is the fact that it starts off very slow. The...

Borderlands 2 was already my most anticipated game of 2012, and this trailer only reinforces that. I do wonder in what context we'll be seeing Lilith tearing shit up using her Phoenix skill. So many questions, still such a long wait...

First of all, the entire theory is flawed as there was no actual connection between Giovanni and Mewtwo in the games. Mewtwo was created by the crew of the burned down laboratory on Cinnabar Island. The only people we know who were involved are Blaine and Mr. Fuji. The actual theory is...

The only thing that comes to mind is that I used to think that two hundred came directly after one hundred and soforth. For some reason the concept of combining numbers above ninety-nine just didn't occur to me until somebody explained it. I also used to think that one kilometer an hour was...

I actually got through Ravenholm when I was like 12 years old, it didn't really scare me. The ladder sequence in FEAR basically made me never touch that game again, although that was probably the scariest thing in the entire game from what I've heard, so maybe I shouldn't have stopped playing...

Civil Protection, I remain baffled by how small an amount of people have apparently seen it here on the Escapist.

I shout in frustration because of all the bullshit in multiplayer games. It drives my parents insane, I just can't convince them that it's a good way to vent anger. Otherwise I often talk to myself in a way that I'd imagine the main character would feel about the situation. For example when...

Lemme see here, I'm not gonna include my pre-order of Black Ops for obvious reasons: Pokémon HeartGold: Yeah, even though I still haven't beat Red Minecraft: Definitely, it has been awesome for several months now, and I'm sure many more will follow. Battlefield: Bad Company 2: At first...

Similar thing happened a while ago, I witnessed a guy stealing someone's wallet and a while later he came running right by me ( as in, I could move half a meter and he would've ran into me ) and my cousing as he was being chased by some guy. We decided not to stop him, as we're not the most...

One of my friends would probably be way more messed up than he is now, that or he'd be dead. Yeaaaaah, that's all I've got.

The stuff in this topic is pretty impressive. I've built plenty of things in both classic mode and survival mode, but I've never really made screenshots so I don't have anything to show off. If you're an avid Minecraft player, you should join the usergroup...

I once ran straight into a lamp post. That hurt. Badly. Also, rushing out of my room and stubbing my toe on the door frame on my birthday.
