    7 year old girl shot dead while selling some lemonade

    I've noticed this thread has turned into a gun control debate over the course of some four pages of posts. Uncanny. I cannot claim to be an expert in legislation or firearms, let alone firearms legislation. I can, however, point out that an awful lot of people have been suggesting...

    Favourite game that nobody else knows about.

    That game ran me ragged for a long time. It was also the first game that I was proud to complete--all the Golden Gobbos, all the little colored gems, the whole damn shebang. All that behind me... How come I was the only person I knew who played Magi-Nation? This was a turn-based RPG...

    Street Fighter X Tekken Dev Laments Hacked DLC

    Hardly a rhetorical question. I spent months doing a term paper on this, in fact. DRM is not meant to stop piracy, never was meant to, and will never be able to. The simple fact that DRM exists and STILL gets constantly bypassed will tell you this. DRM exists almost entirely to...

    Games that need a sequel the most?

    Why the double-dog-dammit hasn't anyone made a sequel to Chrono Trigger yet? I've only been waiting like 15 years for it. COME ON GUYS, GET TO STEPPIN'. And I'm talking DIRECT sequels, Chrono Cross does NOT count.

    What's Your Opinion of Occupy?

    I feel it's a movement that's misunderstood mostly because it refuses to explain what it's all about to the (loud) people demanding answers. "Why not band together and put forth meaningful legislation if you want reform," I am asked, by people seriously why one wouldn't use the system already...

    Poll: Difficulty of Games, too hard?

    I played through BioShock (okay maybe this one isn't so recent but it serves the point well) on the hardest difficulty setting they made available to me and I don't think I died more than twice. To this day, I STILL cannot beat Sonic the Hedgehog 2 without cheating. You decide.

    Your best roll in D&D or a D&D game

    I pulled a 19, an 18, two 17's a 14 and an 11. I was a half-orc barbarian who actually had a POSITIVE charisma modifier. Which is actually kind of an achievement, considering most people tend to hate half-orcs on sight. Grokk was really one-of-a-kind, I wish I could still find that old...

    Poll: Thinking of Leaving My GF of Three Years

    Damn! Beat me to it.

    Giant Squid Invade Florida

    Finally something pale, squishy and hellishly oversized floating around in Florida waters that isn't just a fat tourist from Vermont.

    LulzSec launches Operation Anti-Security.

    That's the best part, though! You can try almost anything you like, and you STILL can't be completely anonymous online. Once you've put any of your data up, you're never going to get it removed entirely. Even if you figure out a way to clear it out, I'm pretty sure there's a web archive...

    Is Fighting Dead

    Hate to break it to you, friend, but your problem started when you tried to play Mortal Kombat. If you're looking for combos, strategy, cross-ups, good placement, floor control, etc., you should pick up something like Street Fighter or Marvel vs. Capcom. Mortal Kombat is really shooting for...

    The undefeated video game Boss

    It gives me the warm fuzzies, seeing so many people naming bosses from Megaman Battle Network 3. Easily the best of the Battle Network series, and I played it so much the "down" direction on my GBA stopped working and I had to go buy an SP. Seriously though, Bass and Serenade are a total...

    Generally Accepted Gaming Facts

    Villains come and villains go, but an evil twin is forever.

    Good insults (just in case)

    "It must be prom night on the Jerry Springer show, cause I'm takin' out the trash." Assuming this is some kind of trash-talking competition here, anyway. Also, Venture Brothers has already given you the perfect insult. "You think you're hot shit in a champagne glass, but you're really...

    The one question they always ask you that you hate

    I'm huge. Like, humongous. Big, lanky guy. So, people always ask me, "Do you play basketball?" No. No, I don't play basketball, dammit. Stop asking me. >_<
