Hello escapists, I'm currently studying education at the University of Frankfurt in Germany and ask you kindly to participate in the following test. I will make another topic when the results are done, to share them with you. So, here goes: 1. How old are you? (Please state your age as a...

I cannot believe no one mentioned Peter Tagtgren(Hypocrisy) yet. Awesome range and a brilliant technique, definitely my favorite metal singer. Also: Angela Gossow - Arch Enemy Mike Patton - Faith no More, Fantomas, Mr. Bungle, etc. Mortuus - Marduk; he always sounds like he is puking his...

I completely agree, please do not get me wrong. I truly love the above mentioned Mario games for their perfect gameplay and brilliantly designed levels. Of course the Mario games aren't about the story, I don't even think they need one and that is exactly why it was so much fun to think about...

Haha, I love it, but why would Ganon dream about being a hero? Is he really a misunderstood, sad little man(pig) who wants to save the princess instead of kidnapping her?

Hello escapists, I am currently playing Super Mario Galaxy 2 and it got me to think about how all the Mario games are (or rather aren't) connected. Two things in particular got me to develop a fun little theory about the Mario universe: 1. Why does every Mario game recycle the same, boring...

Michael Bay's Katamari Damacy with: Sam Worthington as the Prince, Bruce Willis as the King of All Cosmos and Megan Fox as... well, Megan Fox, who cares?

I cant believe a teacher showed Tetsuo in school. That's irresponsible and... well, it's awesome. I once saw an episode of the german "Who wants to be a millionare" and a young guy, maybe 25-30 years old, failed at a very early questions. Now brace yourselfs: the question was something like...

The metal fetishist played by Shinya Tsukamoto from the movie Tesuo: The iron man

Could be, but I agree, it is unlikely. I think the problem with Black Mask and Deathstroke is that they are rather unknown compared to the main villains like Joker, Freeze, Ivy, Catwoman, Penguin, Riddler, Two-Face, Scarecrow and maybe Bane and Clayface. Then again, we can rule them out, because...

Nolan said there won't be a Riddler in DKR. He would be awesome!

You my friend are absolutely right and a very wise man.

Silent Hill 2 of course, but I reckon you already played it, because it's awesome. Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth is pretty good and has some nice insanity elements that reminded me of Eternal Darkness (also very recommendable). The Project Zero/Fatal Frame series is scary as...

No, no, no. That's like saying that the game industry is stagnating just because they still make First Person Shooters, or RTS-Games or games of every other existing genre. You can't just invent something completly new every time you develop another game.

I disagree. Sure, Castlevania plays and feels a lot like God of War and every other game that supposedly "ripped of" God of War, but I don't see it that way. God of War invented (or perfected) a new genre, that is (like all other genres) defined by its gameplay. Of course Castlevania, Dante's...
