    Thor Is Getting Gender-Flipped. Officially.

    It is quite disrespectful, treating a god like this. Gender swapping was seen as very shameful in Norse society. It is like if some Japanese made a manga about Lady Jesus.

    Food you refuse to eat

    Salami, smoked things and everything touched by it or stored in its approximate vicinity.

    David Cage is one of the worst writers in the industry

    Planescape is nice but if Fahrenheit is comparable to a movie then Planescape is like reading an illustrated book. Entertaining as well but a totally different experience.

    David Cage is one of the worst writers in the industry

    Fahrenheit/Indigo prophecy? In my book one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had. The story might be partially garbage especially the second half. But it's entertaining and emotive garbage. Also I have so far played no game with a story to take fully seriously. Fast paced story...

    So I got an idea for a movie...

    If I were filthy rich, I would produce a TV-Series about vampire-killers in a thinly disguised Twilight-universe, where the vampires are slowly revealed to be precursors of Warhammer40.000 chaos cultists and plague zombies.

    The 8th generation arrived.....last year.

    Maybe it has been said before but making up numbers for console generations is completely arbitrary. And if you don't bring your console to the market more or less at the same time as all competitors you will inevitably be caught between two stools, no matter who you are and also no one cares.

    Baby Names and when you picked them

    Wolfram? Why not call him Cadmium or Nickel?

    Poll: Do you ever play as your opposite gender in RPG's?

    It's easy, when the game is 3rd person I like to look at a female the whole time. In 1st person I tend to do a self insert.

    16th Century Europe Envisioned the Rocket Cat

    Just in case anyone wonders, what it is saying: "To set fire on a castle with a cat. To make bullets which run and burn. Take five parts calcium nitrate, two parts[...]" Back in the 16th century it wasn't. The two vowels in Buech have turned into a long u in standard German. In some...

    Misconceptions about Germans (Those damn Nazis!)

    You are totally wrong and I feel insulted. There is nothing remotely "doggish" about it and most languages with a sufficient diverse vocabulary are more or less equally suited for literature.

    Spec Ops: The Line is the best (military) shooter ever

    The praise it got made me buy it when it was full-price (which is not what I usually do). And I was really pleased with it, though not enthusiastic about it. I recently reflected about the whole experience and I have to say that in hindsight it seems even better to me than when I played it. Good...

    Poll: Do you prefer body hair on men/women?

    I do not share many of my fellow men's revulsion at female body hair but i do not promote it either. Also: Better a smooth lawn than a stubble field.

    Poll: The Value of a Human Life

    I am somewhat horrified how many asocial egocentrics would choose a stupid animal. You guys seem to spend too much time watching videos of cute animals and playing games where you shoot at people.

    Your Last Meal

    A grilled chicken and a few bottles of mead would do.

    Rumour: Half-Life 3 coming in the next few years?

    "Rumour: Half-Life 3 coming in the next few years?" I laughed a bit. Also I don't believe the rumors and think it is always a bad idea to change core principles of gameplay in a series.
