I'm only posting this under gaming discussion since its based around a video game. With the new trilogy coming up, I thought how awesome it would be to have a movie trilogy based on Knights of the Old Republic (the first one). A game which many consider to be one of the best star-wars...

I want Anita to say some just, completely bizarre thing on twitter (insert joke about power+prestige here) like "Women are only unlike men when men act more like what women who think men act like act like women." At which point escapist implodes in on itself. Not criticizing the site at all, i...

I recently had the best idea for a sandbox game. Okay maybe not the best ever but seriously, it might involve some disc swapping and it would definitely involve some contrivances but I think it'll be worth it. Okay so, imagine a Rockstar sandbox game... about time travel. Some sort of chance...

Like it or hate it, it's certainly one of the more interesting indie games that have come out recently. What really gets to me is just how awful the game could have been, very easily in fact. If anyone keeps up with Markiplier (or... the other horror scarecam guy...) you'll know there are a lot...

Come on guys, how great would it be to have Super Smash brothers with a constantly updated roster? Y'know like they could nerf, buff characters, add new characters, fix balancing issues with items and such. It would be like League of Legends, and i don't see none of y'all complaining about...

Okay, I'm not sure what got into me when I wrote this, but I'm glad it stirred up conversation!

I think I figured it out. "And now my nose will grow." If the titular character says this, will his nose actually grow or not? If it doesn't grow then he's lying but if it does grow then he's telling the truth and thus it wont grow. This paradox goes on infinitely. Or does it? The fact...

Woah! Props to the escapist, this is WAY more optimistic than I was expecting. This gen hasn't quite started yet, it needs to warm up per se, and i think the introduction of the valve console among many of kickstarters almost-there kind of projects are going to kick this gen into gear and we can...

What about Anachronox? Y'know, the other game Ion Storm made besides Deus Ex. The turn based one. The one where one of your companions is literally a planet and it makes total sense in its own weird kind of way? Eh? Yeah.

The best star wars game ever. Just combine Knights of the Old Republic and everything about it but the main combat mechanic is Jedi Outcast. Oh yeah. That kind of awesome. But to non-star wars fans, how about some kind of other sci-fi? Wing Commander Mass Effect anybody? No? How about...

A common criticism I've seen being tossed around the internet concerning works of fiction, for the most part, is the existence of one-dimensional characters. I've always been confused by this accusation, as dimensions are hard to measure. But I've seen the criticism everywhere from tv show...

I'm doing awesome in college! I just got Batman Arkham City! I beat System Shock 2! I have an awesome everything! I'm in a kickass D&D game! I found an optimism thread on the escapist, full of the biggest downers ive ever seen! All in all, everything is good. Then again I'm optimistic all the...

"Games nowadayyz are getting soo far away from narritive driven storieezz" Dude calm down, just get the Final Fantasy 7 re-relase on steam, you might be happier in life. And if that doesn't work i guess you could just try to pluck your head from your bum although that might take awhile.

Alright I'm actually going to help out the OP and be a bit realistic here. A Hitman style game, or something similar, main character is a child. A game that forces you to do obviously bad things, and I mean come on, I mean things like abusing puppies. But that stuff is obvious. I'd say, among...

First off, ME3 GOTY. I am not going to just let this amazing, extremely in depth universe just rot and die just because of five minutes of bad ending. Does anybody have any idea how hard it is to make endings? Anybody? Especially for a universe this grande? Does nobody have an ounce, just a...
