    Recommend me some Graphic Novels !

    This ^^^ and this ^^^ also. I recommend Alan Moore's Promethea, a story about the immeasurable power of stories. Warren Ellis' Planetary, which is kind of like a an alternate world where the Fantastic Four is evil. Or more specifically it assumes that any group that is so powerful, wealthy...

    Best sci-fi book you've ever read

    OMG! You made me sign in after 6 months. Six months. Simply because no one mentioned Ian M. Banks. I mean really people: Ian M. Banks. Read "Excession" of course and read "Feersum Endjinn" too, but anything else really. And also Charles Stross, but not nearly so much, read "Halting State".

    Poll: So am I the only one that liked Dragon Age 2?

    I'm likin' it pretty well. The setting is interesting and the NPCs are fun. It is innovative and the limited character choice works with the story. I have to say the crafting is much improved. I don't think anyone mentioned that, but I was tired of hauling around all the ingredients and...

    HELP! Exam in 8 hours, what do I do?

    Smoke massive quantities of pot and study all night. It will improve your, recall, but only if you are high for the exam.

    Games you like but no one else seems to know about/like/understand

    Good thread, I haven't heard of manyof these and I've only played two: Planescape and Postal. The first one of the greatest RPGs ever written, and the second, well I have two words, "cat silencer". My vote for best, most obscure game is ... Syndicate Wars. Or more accurately called...

    Favorite Bad Film

    Low budget cyberpunk extravaganza Nemesis with Olivier Gruner. DO NOT WATCH ANY SEQUELS! They are simply bad.

    Would you Kindly?

    What no... "BOOM! Headshot!" or "Godlike!" in the mix? OK my faves... Anna Navarre: You're wearing sunglasses on a night operation? JC Denton: My vision is augmented. Or perhaps... "After the Creation, the cruel god Moloch rebelled against the authority of Marduk the Creator...

    Most obvious plot hole.

    Ummm... Anakin Skywalker has neither a brother named Owen, not a sister named Beru. Nor even the the common sense to look in the phone book from his home planet ...for 18 years!

    Who is the best game developer? (In your opinion)

    Black Isle, followed by Ion Storm. What? Yesterday I got Planescape off gog.com and it's still the best crpg ever.

    Movies that made you cry.

    Brother Sun, Sister Moon by Franco Zeffirelli. I'm not religious, but it is very moving. Also the end of Ghost World. Enid is my hero.

    273: Second Real Life

    I've seen this kind of thing happen before. Much as I like the opportunity to be someone else and see all kinds of wild things, SL can be emotionally draining. The people are real and so are the feelings. I've avoided LTR of a romantic nature. But I do have friends that I think I know pretty...

    Games or developers you hate on principle

    Interplay beacuse they shutdown Black Isle. Also, IMHO HL2 is linear and kinda boring and there are like 3 enemies in the whole game. Sure the level design is nice, but there's no replay value and the episodes are seriously meh.

    Kinect Man Says "Hardly Anyone" Plays PC Shooters Anymore

    There are 11,000 people playing BF Bad Co 2 on the pc at this very instant and over 1.9 million individual logins in total. Yep, guess no one's playing. Actually I'd be playing now, but the servers are too full. I believe there are only 2 words necessary to explain the superiority of the...
