    "Gaymers" Speak Out On Homophobia

    You know, for a long time I thought that I was homophobic. This somewhat upset me because I don't like to think of myself as a bigoted person. Then, one day, I had an epiphany. I hate all people equally who make their sexuality my business for no reason at all, when I have neither asked, nor...

    Fable 2 or Force Unleashed. Which should I get?

    Eat top ramen for all of October. All you need to do then is make sure your rent and electricity gets paid. Go nuts, man.

    Poll: will there ever be a "good" console RTS?

    Committing the cardinal sin of not reading the posts of everyone who has said the exact same thing: It really depends on what you mean by "good". I definitely think that, before it was nerfed by Sega, a concept like Spartan: Total Warrior could have worked for the RTS genre. Where, instead of...

    143: Griefer

    I actually finally decided to make an account just so I can reply to this fiction. I like it. It reminds me a lot of, say, an Ender's Game. Only, you know, if Andrew Wiggin had been a more, shall we say, realistic 6 year old by today's standards. In fact, this story is essentially Ender's...
