    An Open Letter to the Producers of James Bond

    I like the idea that's been floating around for a while that James Bond is not a character per se but rather a codename given to the top operative of MI5. It explains his changes in appearance, demeanour and that he's been alive for so damn long. This isn't to say that I want the films to...

    What Sands of Time Gets Right

    I don't see how the having a bad story has to do with a games budget being more focused on graphical content. Surely they're still paying SOMEONE to write a story. Their just paying morons who couldn't see a decent story if it bit their face off.

    Well, I did the "racial ability" thread, soooooooo...

    I would be a torturer from 'The Book of the New Sun' raised from birth to completely understand how to cause unendurable pain for the purposes of justice and interrogation.

    So why are some games called RPG when they're not?

    It's because the idea is that you have a leveling up system which allows you to customise the characters abilities so that they can (at least hypothetically) be catered into different roles. If you look this up on the internet and elsewhere it is generally accepted that pen and paper role play...

    I love pretty much every book by Gene Wolfe but I've only ever met one person who's even heard of him.

    Edge or Edgy: The Clash of Two Game Makers - Update

    Probably because EA has good enough lawyers and enough money to laugh him and his "games" industry out of court.

    Edge or Edgy: The Clash of Two Game Makers - Update

    It doesn't work like that. When you copyright something you prevent the use of a certain word within a certain area of the market. If I made a company that sold socks and called it fluffy (I have no idea why this was the first idea that came to mind) it would be copyrighted within the clothing...

    TF2 Bodyguards: Who do you choose?

    Spy. He can look as intimidating as he wants, or be invisible, depending on the situation at hand. He can keep you amused with his countless flawless impressions, and he can give you some free cigarettes.

    Prototype Is VERY HARD

    What I've found with prototype is that if what you're doing isn't working try a new tactic. There is ALWAYS some sort of trick that makes it a million times easier. On the rooftops of the nearby buildings are some billboards. Stand behind these so that none of Greene's attack can hit you...
