    Jimquisition: Stupid Sexy Bayonetta

    Jim that 'however' lets us discuss a number of things that we can't otherwise. Sarkeesian, for example, is a complete and under utter snake oil salesman: her work is researched a little less rigorously than most High School papers, she sells herself on constant victimhood and oppression, she has...

    Jimquisition: It's Not A Video Game!

    'Not a Game' is not an insult but a definition; a Game is defined by requisite and developing skill. Kirby's Epic Yarn? There's no failure state but you still develop the skills and logics of the game so you can get further. Now, I don't like Dear Esther either but when I call it 'Not a Game'...

    EA Really Doesn't Want to be The Worst Company In America

    EA you can't tell us not to vote for you because of your mistakes and lies, then reassert that they aren't mistakes or lies ? you're just going to piss more people off.

    RTS Idea? -> Free-to-play

    End of Nations. Pretty much what you're describing verbatim; if it ever actually releases. You're Welcome.

    Jimquisition: SimShitty

    This is a server issue, and EA being unprepared despite the Diablo 3 fiasco. Everyone knew it was going to happen this way. I may not be fond of Always-On DRM, but so long as it's made incredibly clear that it's a requirement of the game it becomes just another PC Requirement. That said, it...

    Jimquisition: Dumbing Down for the Filthy Casuals

    Jim, please deal with Time-Locked Exclusives. They're illegal, but unchallenged, they fuck over large portions of the player-base, they are at least as bad an idea as Online Passes unlocking On-Disc Content.

    I don't understand male virgin shaming.

    The problem is that people care at all. It's sex, it's private, worry about their personality instead. A Virgin Douchebag, and a non-Virgin Douchebag are still fucking douchebags ? in one case it's simply literal.

    Gangnam Style - Questions and Thoughts

    -At Anime Revolution. Particularly watching a rather attractive girl dressed as Zelda in a bikini dancing to it. -Yes I enjoy it. No I don't know why. And by God the jokes are almost Arrow in the Knee overdone by now. -No. I have moves like Shepard and I know it, so no.

    Did ME3 ruin Mass Effect for you?

    No it didn't ruin Mass Effect to me. Don't get me wrong, the ending ? even the extended ending ? was horrible, but 30 minutes of an otherwise spectacular story being awful is still pretty spectacular.

    Historical "facts" and popular representations of histrical figures that are wrong

    First off you assume that saying something is an opinion makes it unassailable; you're wrong. It's Ernst Zundel's opinion that there are secret antarctic nazi ufos (no, really look it up), that doesn't make it any less stupid or incorrect. I don't know where this asinine idea that Opinions are...

    Historical "facts" and popular representations of histrical figures that are wrong

    And we are saying you're completely wrong, every fact disproves everything you're trying to say. It's like saying the Earth is Flat; frankly it's not a fucking debate, your opinion doesn't hold up with actual fact.

    Historical "facts" and popular representations of histrical figures that are wrong

    Not to say that he wasn't a bad King, but the Barons went to war with the King because they didn't like that he had the power to dissolve their land holdings. More importantly had the Barons known what would eventually happen, they likely never would have made the Magna Carta; it was a document...

    Jimquisition: Photorealistic Sociopathy

    I believe he means Religious Statements have no place or value outside any place of worship or theological discussion. Nor should religion influence political opinions or issues because really, we don't live in the Middle Ages and it really shouldn't matter.

    Jimquisition: A Game By Any Other Name

    Hard to disagree with what you said (though a little surprised Syndicate came up as EA's game-type switch that turned out crappy rather than Dragon Age 2), but I think most of the fan outcry about Devil May Cry isn't that the character doesn't look like Dante, but because the character design is...

    Jimquisition: You Should Be Mad at Diablo III's Always Online DRM

    Sorry Jim, but you're mostly wrong. First and foremost, Online DRM and Server Management are not the same issue, and cannot be used interchangeably. The servers should have been handled better, but once they knew the issues were going to occur they warned EVERYONE and well. Could have and...
