    NES Remix Review - This Cartridge Blows

    I wouldn't say Jim's review can't be trusted. I mean, I enjoy the game and he obviously didn't. That being said if there is one thing with Jim you can count on its the fact that regardless of if the game got a 10 or a 0 Jim always gives you concrete reasons why he ranks things as he does. It...

    NES Remix Review - This Cartridge Blows

    I've found the game enjoyable, and do not regret buying it (although I'm not gonna argue that the price is way too high for what it is. It should be 8 bucks tops). The main issue I've found with the game is that a heavy chunk of it depends upon luck. For example, while playing a challenge...

    South Park: The Stick of Truth Will be Censored in Australia

    I really don't get it. The Saints Row 4 banning was infuriating specifically because a) GTA5 had a store that sold drugs, and this was seemingly fine. Which hey, I guess it doesn't count as a reward. I've yet to play GTA5 but as far as I know there is no inherent benefit to doing the drugs in...

    Tips for Writing?

    To me the most logical advice I can give somebody about writing is simply: think of an ending to a story. Once you have the ending in mind you need only figure out the path in how the character's get to that ending. I think once somebody has a set goal in mind it can be much easier to have the...

    Need some advice with a possible game-addicted friend

    I tend to blow through games as well. There are a few reasons for this: the first is just that I've been gaming since the days of Colecovision, so I sort of just instinctively know what to do, and when to do it to complete games quicker. The second is that while I live in Australia, I'm not a...

    Poll: Bioshock Infinite: Burial at Sea (Ep.1) Thoughts and opinions

    I personally enjoyed the setting of Rapture better than the setting of Columbia. Rapture is darker, and a bit more visually interesting. Not that Columbia was terrible, or anything. So, I'm actually fairly excited to see it return. Besides, there is plenty of time for them to return to Columbia...

    Games with Gold/PSN+ games offer

    I have no issue putting down money every three months or so, knowing it's only about 20 dollars (at least in Australia. I may possibly be lower in countries where they don't add a 30+ dollar "lol @ you' tax to everything for funsies) and in exchange I get over four games, typically, a month for...

    Poll: Male Self-Image.

    I went with sort of. I'm decent enough looking, but I'm not gonna be appearing in any modeling ads or anything. I'm sure there would be others who would look better in comparison in the selected attire but I don't believe I'd be hideous compared to them or anything. Just not quite as good.

    Out of place, out of luck, out of mind... wait isn't that a song? Okay this is more personal.

    I think rather than allowing yourself to get depressed over the event you described, you should instead take it as a sign that perhaps this friend isn't worth your time. Unfortunately you can't really trust everybody, even those who claim to be your friend. Hell, sometimes you can't exactly...

    Should heroes be allowed to fail?

    A whole lot of people are very hesitant to make their hero appear weak, as the people we look up to personally are in our eyes virtually untouchable. So, with this in mind should a hero be allowed to fail, knowing it shatters that view of them? Yes, but temporarily. You don't want the story...

    Should I open a Facebook account?

    Facebook is questionable at best, but at the same time so widely used that sometimes people may feel disconnected from others if they're not on it. The truth about Facebook is that not many people really have anything interesting to say. This isn't really a knock on people, but more so a...
