No experience with it personally. I wouldn't recommend trying to stay together, in general. Once a cheater, always a cheater, etc. etc. But that's from an objective point of view. Unfortunately, if it ever happened to me, I'm not sure if I would have the strength to do so myself, even though...

Freaks From Within by Frank Klepacki. Nice.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl: Monolith! Oh God, the Monolith they never fucking die except when you manage to get a headshot (instant kill on anything) otherwise you need to expend two whole mags... Use the Knife Gloves and cut him down, they're ridiculously powerful.

Thanks for informing me about this, Tom, and thank you for the CNN link. But what bugs me is when personal opinions are added and shoved it down my throat. I really don't care about what you think, and would prefer to think for myself, thank you very much. (what I mean)

But how is that odd at all? The vehicles in Fallout are fission-powered and go up in a nuclear fireball at the slightest provocation. Also, in VATS, damage you take is reduced by 80% or something ridiculous like that. Combined with good armor or Med-X, I think it's perfectly reasonable.

Best of luck, guys. Thank you. Well, anything to get more readers. After all, their primary mission is to make money, and if that doesn't coincide with delivering real news, then so be it. Goddammit.

I love how they tilt their heads when they see porkchops :> Baroooooo?

Really touching. Yes, cheesy, but really touching and heartwarming at the same time :)

The kind of people who play a lot of games will be heavily affected by this, though not because the act of playing games itself takes up a lot of bandwidth. We want/need to download ridiculously large updates, download new Steam games, download that cool-looking Source mod, download that...

Having arbitrary time limits for things which... might logically deserve one, but it really does detract from the gameplay experience. For example, having a set amount of time to answer EVERY SINGLE PHONEBOOTH in the early GTA games, the time limits for every single new task in Dead Rising...

Yes, I know, but this sort of thing occurs in every aspect of media. Car enthusiasts might say that this movie car chase is unrealistic, history enthusiasts might say that this game is historically inaccurate. Learn to deal with it, otherwise you'll have every movie and game ruined because...

Call of Duty is not realistic. It is not realistic at all, even though it calls itself realistic. It might be so compared to other, similar mainstream games such as Halo and Gears of War... but in the grand scheme of games and life it's not very. Try Operation Flashpoint. That's real. And...

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY do people insist on making godawful puns that have the faintest of connections yet still make me laugh because they are so bad :<

No. Greg, no. Don't tell me what to think and what to believe. The title of the article screams "OMG THIS GAEM IS SICK!" like every other judgemental, sensationalist headline you might see on British tabloids or Fox News. That might be the opinion of the author, but I, as a reader, do not give...

Better PC-exclusives than consoles, in my opinion RTS games Mods, downloadable stuff, patches Can lurk the internets also, including the Escapist, watch videos, and do work Steam offers cheaper games Better graphics with a high-end PC I prefer mouse and keyboard over a console controller...
