    Steam trading thread!

    It's a different kind of system. Steam has a library of games (the ones you own and can play) and then there's stuff in your "inventory". Like, say, an unopened game box. You can trade stuff in your INVENTORY, but you can't trade games you've actually bought for yourself (your LIBRARY). Your...

    Poll: What is your nationality?

    ... You Dutch biggot. We belong there because we have the capital of the EU, THAT's why. ;) Captcha: of course EDIT: On a completely unrelated note: we are the 1%.

    Have you ever avoided something because of its fanbase?

    This. A 1000 times this. I find it to be rather disturbing. Then again, Bioware has done its fair share of effort to placate this part of the fanbase. (I am of course referring to the awkward post-coital hugging/spooning/sitting in ME2.)

    Marvel's Giving The Avengers "a New Beginning"

    I was about to ask the same bloody thing. My comic book lore is fairly limited (in part because I never really followed any of the main storylines, except when they were brought to the Animated Series), but I'm pretty sure I'd never heard of a raccoon with a gattling gun before. Hilarious.

    Poll: A social/national stereotype experiment in regards to ME3 and its ending.

    Well, I think the basic idea of organics as imperfect beings is somewhat maintained. As EDI states, there is still room for growth. (Something along the lines of "And with time, we might even overcome mortality itself.") Control, however, is a double-edged sword. The Reapers could continue to...

    Poll: A social/national stereotype experiment in regards to ME3 and its ending.

    Belgian, and: I believed the old ending was okay, but it had its flaws. Some plotholes, some weird, unexplained circumstances, etc. However, I personally didn't mind the fact that it was a bit of an open ending (thus leaving a lot up to speculation.) On the other hand, the plotholes made it...

    Do you drink coffee?

    Not really. I -breathe- coffee. It has been incorporated into the very fibre of my being. ... Yes, I might, actually, drink too much of it. I recommend against switching to energy drinks, seeing as they usually contain very high amounts of caffeine combined with (e.g.) taurine, etc...

    Suggestions for "calm" games?

    Bloody hell, it took me a while before I could remember where exactly that quote came from. "You have to ask yourself... Do I feel lucky? Well, do I, punk?" And I agree with him. The Monkey Island games are even more relaxed than the SQ/KQ series, because you simply can't die. (Well, with a...

    If EA took over *blank*

    Whoops. You're absolutely correct. My apologies. And yes, Jacob and James were rather bland. Like I said, I agree that -some- of the characters are rather one-dimensional, but I disagree that this would somehow apply to all of them... For example, the same logic doesn't apply to, say, Joker...

    Suggestions for "calm" games?

    Really old, but: Have you tried playing the King's Quest/Space Quest series? They're decent enough. Most Turn-Based Strategy games will fit your description pretty well, as well. How about Civ IV? (I've heard that Civ V is a lot more action based, so yeah...) Age of Wonders (1 - 2 - Shadow...

    If EA took over *blank*

    If anything, he was a Latino. And yes, his personality was rather bland. But I still think you can't say that about the majority of ME3's major characters.

    If EA took over *blank*

    Technically, Jacob was a story tool for new players, but I get where you're going with this. I can kind of "get" what Smash is saying about the characters being rather one-sided... But I really don't see how this applies to every character in ME3 (or, even worse, every character they've ever...

    EA Wants "To Be 90 Plus Metacritic at Everything"

    Yeah, but mostly only because you're obliged to use it if you want to play ME3, Dead Space 2, Dragon Age 2, etc... (Just like I originally just downloaded Steam because HL2 made me do it, of course.) I'm all for more competition, but I don't see them outclassing Steam any time soon. Primarily...

    Cave Johnson Announces "Blappeture Mesa"

    Creepiest Gabe-face EVER. I don't know why it's possible for a black and white drawing to startle me. :(

    Mass Effect 3 Review

    Technically, that's not what they said. Blunderboy complains about the fact that everybody who indicates that they like the game are being discredited as being "bioware fanboys", "corporate tools", etc. The ones you quote did not imply that people who dislike the game are doing it to be cool...
