    Would you pick up an Xbone if the poor decisions were rescinded?

    Not gonna buy it, regardless of changes. A machine on which I can't switch between writing and administrating my medieval nation-state has no place in my home. I'm not and have never been the target audience of consoles. I should probably stop posting in console threads...

    Monaco: What's Yours is Mine Review

    "The shadow of the learning curve"? Really? The game has a very small learning curve in terms of actual mechanics to master. You do a thing, observe the results, you know it. Everything has pretty much immediate effects that can be easily observed, if you take the 3 seconds necessary to...

    Indie Devs Aren't Happy With Steam Greenlight

    Steam can make Greenlight more visible, but there's no way it can maintain the service's intended function, while increasing visibility of the games themselves. I've voted for some, but many of the games included are still utter dross. And now I can't be arsed to open Greenlight even when I'm...

    So , what's the point of being in a relationship.

    Companionship. I'm looking for a person to trust and be emotionally involved in my worries, to face the horrors of entropy at my side, for which I'm willing to pay with the same. The economic and sexy benefits are just that, benefits. And, no, pets don't have the communicative skills and...

    Recommend me an insanely long book

    Gödel, Escher, Bach: An eternal golden braid. It's so non-fantasy that it's non-fiction. Except where it is fiction and metafiction. Don't worry about that, though. It's a very enlightening read about recursion, computation, consciousness, music and art. Also, have a notepad at the ready, at...

    Poll: Do you like Microsoft?

    Nnnnope. Most of its products I use out of necessity, personal or compatibility-based necessity. The only thing they seem to be good at is making the Office suite. Everything else I've usually chosen because it's the lesser evil.

    Songs you hate but can't stop voluntarily listening to.

    No such thing. Now humming, singing and generally having it in the head, yeah. Happens. Listening? I've never had that weak of a won'tpower.

    Your personal biggest underrated game of all time

    Stars! 2. And 1, probably. Not so much underrated as underexposed. But damn, that game knows how to dropkick you in the brain.

    Metacritic: 2012 Lacked Quality Games

    So Metacritic is faced with a slight increase in journalistic integrity and blames it on games being bad. Yep. That's a strategy for secure, unmitigated win.

    spec ops: the line spoilers please

    If you want to have the story delivered to you properly without playing the game, watch an LP. None of these comments can do it justice. Or grab Killing is Harmless.

    Artemis Spaceship Bridge Simulator Warps to iOS

    This. I got my android phone a week ago and I'm still looking for good games for it. This would have made my day. Oh well, back to pestering people for Ingress ivnites.

    Gogogic CEO Says Single-Player is a "Gimmick"

    I kinda agree with him. I mean, he is basically saying that you can't earn anything by making shitty single player games and therefore need to make actually good single player games.

    Halo 4 Pirates Face Perma-Ban

    The way you do this is record the whole walkthrough, upload it as private and then you make it public the day Halo 4 hits the stores. Allow time to pass for at least as much as your vids are long.
