    Fez Creator: YouTubers Are "Stealing" Content From Game Developers

    I don't think he has a problem with gameplay videos, rather the people who make gameplay videos as their primary source of income. He spent a shitload of time to make Fez, got a sizeable windfall from its success, but now he sees a bunch of people just playing video games and earning roughly as...

    Pikachu Will be Japan's Official Mascot For 2014 Soccer World Cup

    Um no, this is false. Nowhere does it say "official" mascot, it's just a bloody tie in promotion. I know this is ripped from Joystiq (and probably a dozen misinformed articles before that) but please have the sense to verify a primary source before riding on the LOL LOOK AT THIS JAPAN STUFF train.

    The Next Elder Scrolls Game, what should it have

    Everything that was in mrbtongue's video. I don't know dick about making a good video game but he sure does. edit: since I know bethesda is reading this 3rd page post from a person with like 20 posts, I would also like to say adding co-op is a bad idea. TES is a solo experience. As Ma'iq...

    The most fun you ever had in a video game

    Shoutout to grand strategy! An extremely rewarding genre because the time you spend meticulously planning lasts hours, for something that will unfold in just minutes. I can safely say this was the most fun I had in a video game, my Operation Barbarossa: It took me ages to build my forces...

    Who is Your Waifu?

    Isn't waifu like a tongue in cheek insult for "perfect girlfriend" type deals? Or has the reclamation already begun?

    Games Workshop Stock Plummets By 24 Percent

    I think the epitome of how little GW thinks of us is in the price of the Imperial Guard infantry set. 10 years ago, you got 20 figures for $50 AUD. It didn't exactly inspire people to go tripping over themselves and buy loads of them, but for GW standards it was mental. Nowadays, it's $48 AUD...

    If you could delete one game forever, what would it be?

    The greatest pity is probably... we won't see another good X game again. Egosoft have clearly gone mental.

    If you could delete one game forever, what would it be?

    A little title called Sword of the Stars 2: The Lords of Winter. What the fuck is that, I hear you ask? Well, let's assume you've read up to this far. Thank you, this is probably my moment of catharsis for today. Anyway. The original Sword of the Stars was released in 2006 by a little group...

    So Fox bought the rights to a Magic The Gathering Movie...

    I am a huge Magic fan but this is just ridiculous. It is very clearly a bottom of the barrel sort of thing from Fox, who probably wanted other genre fiction material to adapt but was knocked back on account of being a third rate studio. Wizards of the Coast on the other hand probably see this...

    Your Proudest Video Game Moments!

    My most recent awesome video game moment was with AI War. My empire was expanding pretty well, I was keeping the enemy AI army under control with some well-timed fleet movements and had a good defensive system protecting my homeworld. Or so I thought. Anyway I got very confident, and as...

    ITT: people who have zero interest in soccer and have no idea what they're talking about

    Awsome Unknown games you know

    Ah right. I guess I'm just used to recommending to people around my age (20). Most of my peers never heard of the franchise or Orta, and I've always thought of it as an obscure title. To be fair I only know about it because I was a stickler for demos back then, the game was pretty poorly...

    Name one game you wish you'd played when it just came out.

    Neverwinter Nights. That thing was HUGE in its heyday but by the time I bought the Classics edition, the community totally died out. Like around 2003 or something, it really was an RPG with endless possibilities.

    The most awful thing you've ever actually done to someone during online play

    tsk tsk. An eye for an eye makes the whole world go blind :'( With that said, getting teabagged induces a nervous tic in my eye and I do the same thing as you do, but I also teabag first if the person I've killed is a lot higher rank than me. I am a bit of a dick.

    Awsome Unknown games you know

    Panzer Dragoon Orta for the original Xbox was really great. Sounds like a silly Japanese game. It certainly is, but with a twist: it was made from the guys that gave you Jet Set Radio Future! The OST alone makes this game super awesome...
