    Share your fictional setting with the Escapist

    For the past 20-some years, my sister and I came up with these characters which were initially spawned from playing a game of Quest for Glory V. Originally it was basically just the QFG hero with a blue cape, then a fellow paladin with a dragon eye shield, an elvish thief named Jak, an amazon...

    Mortal Kombat X Revealed in New Trailer

    Good to see another MK title... though I'm probably one of the very few people who also wonder if they will be able to have their heroes adequately bounce back in their Story Mode, seeing how the other one ended in a pretty bleak state.

    Alexander Gets Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Trailer

    ...I'm.... pretty sure Alexander's THNGVBD focused fairly exclusively on Alexander, and was more short story material. Granted, its been a while since Kindergarten/1st Grade... so my memory may be off, but I guarantee you most/all of the crap in this trailer did not happen in the book...

    Most devastating loss of a save file

    A long time ago, I had RPG Maker. I got into it for a while. My last project on it was something I put all my effort into. And I accidentally overwrote the Game Data with an empty Save Data file. I lost everything. That's a pretty massive blow to a 14-year-old kid. Most recently was actually...

    Diablo III's Massive, Free Loot 2.0 Patch Goes Live

    Yeah, I'm still not drawn in by the PC version. All these fixes, the final days of the RMAH, the promise of Reaper of Souls and the Crusader class on the horizon, while alluring, do little in paling the salted wound of having my play time dictated by the company, when the game itself has a...

    Lightning Could Appear in Future Final Fantasy's

    Pole dancing? You mean the pole slide? I agree it's a pointless addition, but it's hardly a dance.

    Lightning Could Appear in Future Final Fantasy's

    Just to swim against the current, I'd like the idea of seeing Lightning in FFT-style cameos... I just hope Toriyama doesn't write the story. He's got a way of taking a simple plot and making it annoyingly complicated and 'deep'.

    Protagonists you just can't stand.

    Dante from the DmC Reboot. It takes some serious effort to reinvent a character and end up making him more of a douchebag than the original was. Kratos from God of War. Talk about antisocial. There's grieving for those lost, and then there's continuously murdering innocent people...

    Disney Making Live-Action Chip 'n' Dale Film

    ...Why not... just a purely CGI film, since those have a habit of not sucking in comparison to a live action film who's star characters are CGI?

    Your reaction if Nintendo went third party?

    Woooo! PlayStation Pokemon titles! Color me down for it!

    GOG's Catalogue Adds the Classic Shooter SiN

    "New Dawn my ass you wacky *****!" Ahhhh the memories. I miss this game and all its violent glory.

    Square Enix's Final Fantasy XIII Retrospective is Retro-tastic

    I'd be totally down with a FF13 Demake in the style of FF1, 2, and 4's revamps. I love that old-but-new retro stuff.

    Report: The Last of Us 2 Is Under Production For 2015 Release

    I hope to God it focuses on a different crowd of people. I can't stand the idea of cheapening an experience like this with a sequel.

    PlayStation Now May Exclude PS1/PS2 Games, PS4 To Get Emulators

    ...And I just put all my PS1 and PS2 games into storage, dammit...

    Update: Fan "Fixes" Mass Effect 3 Ending With A 539-Page Rewrite

    People seem to think that this is an ending rewrite. It's not just an ending rewrite, it takes little details from all across the third game, and puts out, best-case scenario, how they could be improved upon. I read through the thing a bit. Skimmed most of the redundant parts. Lots of...
