    Escapist Podcast: 097: Xbox One-Eighty

    i had to stop listening when you started talking about the last of us. i cant tell if you are being serious or sarcastic about a water level, all i can tell is you're being a jerk by threatening to spoil something on your audience like that. i'm not laughing. that wasn't funny. negativity...

    gears 3 no longer has dedicated servers?

    hmm, maybe an inadvertently misleading title. anyways, i just tossed in my copy of gears 3 and it seems that in order to play online on a dedicated server (a service that was advertised for the title and part of the reason i bought it) i now have to buy some kind of BS map pack. ?!!? i am...

    Poll: This Tuesday: Rage or Dark Souls?

    i preordered both, but i will play dark souls first. i am just winding down on gears 3 and will a fantasy adventure will be a nice change of pace. however, rage looks astoundingly good. i think it is important to mention that. it really does look beyond excellent, and ID makes great...

    [IGN]Top Five Reasons Dark Souls Will Eat Skyrim's Face

    i am pretty sure dark souls will be better, simply since it sounds like skyrim will be a lot like oblivion and oblivion had serious issues. i think a lot of people are remembering oblivion with nostalgia goggles on. the combat in oblivion was poor to awful. for a combat based adventure game...

    What's with Americans and getting married?

    freaksheet, i believe the implication is that marriage is unnecessary and potentially harmful. you do not need to be married to have children, nor do you need to be married to be in a happy and committed relationship.

    What's with Americans and getting married?

    why does marriage continue to exist at all? it adds nothing to a relationship but potentially terrible long term costs, and the actual marriage and marriage license costs money too. seriously, why does this anachronistic institution continue to exist?

    alternative retailers to gamestop/eb

    after the deus ex fiasco where gamestop chose to actively rob thier customers, i decided that was the final straw. until now i have bought the majority of my games from my local EB(canadian company owned by gamestop) and had not really explored other options. well today i went to my much...

    Deus Ex H.R.'s Ending (spoilers *Shock!*)

    the quote "secret ending" is irrelevant to the game. it is more like one of the lame scenes at the end of a marvel movie, like thors hammer at the end of iron man 2. that said, if you want to see it i am pretty sure you can just load up the credits from the main menu. i am still dumbfounded...

    Deus Ex H.R.'s Ending (spoilers *Shock!*)

    umm what the hell are you guys talking about with defending malik? i tried, but it quickly seemed obvious that the situation was scripted/pre-destined. are you telling me it is actually possible to save her?!!!? and, just like many of you i had been playing no killing for the most part up...

    Non-Americans: How do you view us?

    the subject of the topic was america, not canada. saying that canada is no better or worse is a deflection from the issue and not relevant. that said, i feel obligated to correct the misrepresentation of religion in canada. we are a secular state. ignoring the fact that i live in...

    Poll: Should I Get Skyrim Right When it Comes Out or Wait for the GotY Edition?

    actually it is a terrible idea to pick skills you will use outside of a controlled circumstance as your main skills, as per the efficient levelling section of the oblivion wiki. in fact the game seriously punishes you for doing it. either way, i am pleased that you enjoy oblivion, even if i...

    Non-Americans: How do you view us?

    i am canadian and currently i am sad for the usa. you guys are doomed. you have a fairly ignorant, sheep like population that will always hold you back. about half of americans dont accept evolution. the greatest threat to your national security is the republican party and your broken...

    Poll: Should I Get Skyrim Right When it Comes Out or Wait for the GotY Edition?

    i am pretty sure new vegas was developed by obsidian, but published by bethesda. sort of the way bioware made mass effect 2, but ea published it. the buggy nature of new vegas seems to have been obsidian's fault. as for skyrim, i am so torn about that game. i dont like oblivion. it has...
