    What is the Meaning of your Avatar???

    It's the Librarian. And if you don't know who the Librarian is, you need to go home and reevaluate the nothingness that is your life :)

    Is it OK to be a gamer?

    No. Gaming is a scourge, a blight upon the world. Its armies are the unwashed, filthy scurrying masses of greasy, socially awkward nerds, just waiting for their chance to ogle, grope and do other sinful actions upon all and every females present in the world. Its weapons are escapism, promises...

    Dragon Age : Origins a new Witcher game (there will be one because I say so, and noone dare dispute this!) Rage Star Wars : The Old Republic Diablo 3 And a pc capable of playing anything made after 2004 :(

    Poll: Will you outgrow games?

    Heh, why the hell would I "outgrow" my hobby? It's not like I spend 12 hours daily playing games, I use them to relax and learn (hey, I got half my vocabulary from games, you don't know how much knowing 24 different melee weapons rocks when you're in your first year at language school and your...

    What is your favourite western RPG not including this gen

    Meh, even if it were "including this generation" it'd still be Planescape Torment. That, and Bloodlines. I'm still waiting for another game, if not RPG, to match the atmosphere, storyline and, most important, dialogue. Argue all you want, but I've yet to see anything at all resembling the...

    Whose painting is this?

    So, a friend of mine sent me this link : http://www.flickr.com/photos/plasticmind/477950317/ It's a photo of a painting (presumably). I'm certain the style is familiar to me, but when I tried to think of what it reminded me of, I couldn't come up with anything better than a bizarre mashup...

    Best Sci-Fi

    I really like how you summed up my entire opinion on the matter, and now all I have to do is quote :)

    fanboys/gamers why all the hate?

    Rather shocking, indeed. I have none of the consoles (only a sucky PC), yet I never take on the "Mighty and Benevolent PC Gaming God", not in the least because I'd feel like a moron doing so. Every console has its pros and cons. Even if you are too poor to afford more than one, which is the...

    Gore

    Postal 2, had some nice time decapitating a person with a shovel, kicking his head against another till the poor bloke starts to puke, then decapitating HIM only to have puke flying through his neck stump... ah. Where was I? God of war is an obvious candidate, too. Mortal Kombat for the...

    Any one else really looking forward to Red Faction: Guerilla?

    Yeah, I'm looking forward to it. I just want to see how it turns out, because I'll have no chance in hell to play it. Still, the GeoMod seems very interesting, and I love that hammer bashing buildings down.

    Poll: Regenerative health vs Health bar

    Health bar, no health regeneration in itself, but with enemies dropping some sort of health-restoring items. Prime example - Painkiller. Sure, it's 1 or 2 health per soul, but there are so damn many if you pay attention, you could restore half your health in a single battle. Also D3 is going to...

    Poll: Will Nintendo go HD?

    It's a tricky situation right now. The Wii is selling like legal crack, so it wouldn't make sense for Nintendo to make an HD Wii, also, the Wii is the most family-friendly console, and there are many families who lack HDTVs and don't plan to buy such any time soon, which will rather severely...

    Your Ultimate chance to make gaming history

    Get ID and Crytek, have them develop the most technologically advanced and wow-inspiring engine, get Levelord (if he's still alive... haven't brushed up on my level designer culture in a while) to fashion grand cathedrals, majestic palaces, diabolic Helldomes, abandoned Labyrinths, ghastly...

    Best Game Graphics?

    It depends. Pure all-out graphical power - Crysis undoubtedly. With some of the mods, it becomes... fascinating. Creature/object/world design - Sacrifice. Especially the many bizarre creatures, even now it stands out from artistic point. And the world is very well-made too, lots of elevation...
