    Games for Mac

    ^This - Hurray for Valve! Also there's Diablo, Starcraft, Minecraft, Assassin's Creed : Brotherhood... On the App Store there's Star Wars : Knights of the Old Republic, Bioshock, CoD (I forget which one). That's for the "big" titles. Steam usually has great deals on indie games for Mac...

    Your Gaming Capital Sins

    First of all, This thread is AWESOME! I, too, strongly believe that Zelda Majora's Mask is a far superior game then Ocarina of Time. I played an hour of Oblivion, got lost on the map, then gave up. It's still in my drawer, and I'm still saying to myself : I'll load it up again, one day...

    career advice

    Why wouldn't you be a surgeon? If it's your dream, why wouldn't you be able to achieve it? Here's the thing. Yes, Med School is hard. So hard in fact that it will change the person you are. And you won't think too much about it because you'll be so wrapped up in studying that you won't...

    Disappointed by Assassin's Creed?

    I think it's too bad the developers decided to stick with Ezio for three whole games. Don't get me wrong, I love his character and I love the games, but... I had hoped Revelations to have a new character in a new time period. For what it's worth, I just want the next game to be set in Paris...

    Paying parents rent.

    Well, you're lucky to have a home. I was kicked out of my house when I started Uni ("You're 18 now, GO LIVE YOUR LIFE") You can't do anything about it, and it seems you don't really a choice. Or you pay 100£, or you have to get a place of your own and you'll definatly have to pay more. One...

    How often do you pre-order games?

    The only games I pre-order are Bioware's (I might be a fangirl...) and because I want Collector's edition. Other then that, I never pre-order, and rarely get games when they come out. I don't know about you, but where I live they usually are between 60-70euros on Launch day and I CANNOT...

    Mass Effect, Love the game, but...nothing draws me back to play it again.

    It's funny because ME is the only game I have finished at least 10 times, and enjoy the playthrough everytime. ME2... Not so much. I have played it several times though. Well, I suppose everyone has their own tastes!

    A veiw on Female characters and Armor. {Discussion}

    I thought the armors in DA:O were great : Protective (well... They looked protective to me!), yet didn't cover up my character completely. In fact, I thought my Warden was hot as hell when sporting Scaleplates! It's possible. (Male) Developpers are just... Sometimes clueless when it comes to...

    Another Girl Thread (need sound advice)

    How about you strike a conversation about something you're REALLY confident about and you know she's interested in? About the class, or her own work, or her thoughts on your own work?

    The Rise of the "Man-*****"

    It's funny (well... Not really) that when a woman gets in touch with her "masculine side" no one gives a shit, but when it's a man doing that with his "feminine side" it's an aberration. Why? Because the image on "Manliness", Rawr rawr, beer, meat and testosterone is the best. Screw that...

    Games you refuse to play

    Oh no not at all. It's hard to escape fighting and death in games nowadays. I guess my post was not well worded. It's because most of the time it's the "nice americans" fighting the mean "insert random nationality" - Maybe I'm wrong and not all war games are like that (after all, I'm not a...

    Games you refuse to play

    War games. I don't care what everyone says, War is NOT fun.

    Words you say just a little too much.

    I think I use "PUTAIN!" at least 100 times a day. Arg, DAMN IT!

    Poll: Females: have you ever pretended to be male while online

    I have no words. Except complete and utter rage actually. Yeah, rage sounds about right. I kind of stopped playing online because of that - Not only did I ALWAYS end up having to play with sexist douchebags, but they were also most of the time racist.
