    Sum up your country with a music video.

    Here's a good one for Canada: https://youtu.be/zuVsHt3rBnc And another if you prefer the funnier side of things: https://youtu.be/WVC677-YmfM

    Can you suggest any PC games that play similarly to Phantom Pain? Open world optional.

    Try Hitman: Blood Money. It's better than Absolution in my experience, and it's usually pretty cheap on Steam ($10).

    Stories that "Dropped the ball".

    Heroes. First season was great, but ... then the main villain, who had just been stabbed through the aorta with a katana, somehow gets whisked away right in front of half a dozen people by the remnants of a shadowy conspiratorial group instead of dying within seconds like he ought to have. The...

    What if the last Two Games you played share the same Universe?

    Minecraft and Dead State. That... actually sounds pretty cool.

    Looking for truly mature PC games.

    "Dishonored" is a good game that fits most of the criteria. Not as dark as some games, but definitely darker than others. You'll have to like stealth gameplay for it to be fun, though. "I Am Alive" is another fun but short game that might fit your checklist. No multiple endings, but...

    Characters that would fill you with glee if they died?

    Hmm, that's a tough one... Closest I can think of off the top of my head is to play Civ 5 and act like Kim Jong Un or something. Though that's less "evil" and more "idiot" :). Does the old Tie Fighter game let you be a pilot for the Empire? I never played that so I'm just guessing. The...

    Characters that would fill you with glee if they died?

    The 2 Payday games have you in the role of the bad guy, big time. Not much of a story, mind you, but still.

    Steam's Fall Sale Begins November 26 - Update

    I swore off buying yet another mountain of games that I don't have the time to play. My pile is over 100 games now... Mind you, that tactic hasn't worked too well - The pile was only 75 games large before the LAST big sale :(

    "GET OVER HERE!" phrases that are engraved in your brain years later

    "Your mother sucks dwarf cock." - The Witcher. I nearly pissed myself laughing the first time someone said that to me during a bar fight. "War. War never changes." - Fallout "A winner is you!" - Pro Wrestling for NES "Pills here!" - Left 4 Dead "You've ruined your own lands...

    Silly Childhood Beliefs

    You...you mean that DOESN'T work? Well shit...guess I should fill in that hole in the back yard :(. Speaking of cats... I thought all cats were girls.

    Your Biggest Experience With Hype Backlash

    Team Fortress 2. I just could never get into it. It was (and is) supposed to be the best team shooter EVAR, with the best combination of classes, the best balance, the best maps.... Meh.

    And Now For Some Truth

    I thought that was the best part of the whole post! It was a very colourful metaphor that encapsulated his argument quite articulately :D. And yes, it was also rather odious :).

    And Now For Some Truth

    Just because a subject is unimportant in the grander scheme of things doesn't mean that it cannot be reported on with honesty and integrity. And if it *can* be, then it ought to be. The people who are interested in the topic, no matter how trivial, deserve no less. Why do they deserve...

    Games Where You Felt Totally Lost

    Rygar on the NES had me wondering W...T...F... am I doing and where am I supposed to be. The second Legend of Zelda game (the side scroller on the NES) also had me wandering around looking for ...something :).
