    WB/DC Plans Live-Action Teen Titans TV Series

    Personally, I'd just prefer if they'd finish the Young Justice cartoon, but hey, I'll take it. Depends on the quality of the end product, however. I haven't had the greatest faith in WB/DC live action productions as of late.

    Zero Punctuation: E3 2014 - Deflate Your Hype Balloons

    Don't mind me. I'm just going to sit here being smug about how all the games I actually am hyped for didn't get a single mention by Yahtzee. :P

    Titanfall Review - Mechs and the City

    Reading WAY too much into things there. I knew I should have been more clear in my initial post. What I meant is that I take care of a disabled person and need to be available at a moment's notice. It's not a perpetual thing, but I cannot afford to spend extended hours on games where I cannot...

    Titanfall Review - Mechs and the City

    Yes, but the Pacific Rim fighting game sucked regardless. Even if you list all the game's other qualities, it doesn't help the fact that it's online-only. In other words, something that amounts to a brick once the servers die off... or just flat-out die. Also, I have what's called a "life"...

    PaperDude VR Brings Paperboy to Oculus Rift

    Enough people have enough trouble finding enough space to stand far enough away from their Kinect sensor... now you want to throw an exercise bike into the mix? Just how niche a market are you aiming for? The criteria make it out to be astonishingly small: A) people with 360, B) people with...

    "YOLO" Has Become the New "LEEEEROY JENKIIIINS"

    "Injustice: Gods Among Us" in-joke aside... maybe I just don't "get out" enough, but the only time I ever year the term "Yolo" used ever is specifically in the context of complaining about or making fun of the term. Just saying, I have yet to ever see the term played straight.

    Former Midway Project Awakened Hits Kickstarter.

    Guys, if you're going to show off powers that look way too much like Alex Mercer or Cole McGrath powers, don't show them off using a guy wearing a white hoodie. For all the game seems to want to be, it honestly feels kinda derivative. Like nothing they're showing off hasn't been done before in a...

    Poll: do you prefer to play as male or female character ?

    It really all depends on how butt-ugly the males are. I generally try to play as a male that looks as close to myself as possible, but if every guy looks like a wall of steak with roadkill for a face, I'll stick with the ladies. It also depends on my hormones at the time. Generally, though, I at...

    Poll: Historical Inaccuracies in Games

    It all depends on the game, really. Stuff in the Assassin's Creed series is easy to shrug off, given how they deliberately deviate from history as it is. On the other hand, stuff like, say, the Egyptians in "Rome: Total War" is so blatantly WRONG that it tends to take me out of the experience a...

    NYCC: Hands-on Injustice: Gods Among Us

    What? Look, I don't deny that Batman is pretty agile and swift, but he's hardly an "acrobat." Dick Grayson (that is, Robin / Nightwing) is an acrobat. Batman isn't going to be flipping off walls or cars like his one-time sidekick; he's the type who'll stand and fight and, if need be, tank a...

    Best "Villains in Name Only"?

    Lord Ashur from Fallout 3's "The Pitt" DLC. He's a tyrant ruling over the Pitt with raiders dominating a multitude of slaves, all the while claiming to be working on a cure for the local mutation plague that also prevents children from being born (which is why they use slave labour in the first...

    Marriage Proposals in Public - Dick Move or Romantic?

    Speaking in more defined terms, I feel there is a difference between a simple "public proposal" and outright "tell me you say 'yes' in front of this audience." "Public proposal" example: At a game, arrange for the big screen to display "Will You Marry Me?" during halftime, during which you...

    Poll: Favorite element in Borderlands

    Explosive. Way back when, my favourite gun in Perfect Dark was the Maian Phoenix, an alien pistol with explosive rounds as it's alternate fire mode. I've longed to find a weapon that replicates the magic of so long ago...

    Heroes of Might and Magic VI Opinion?

    Really happy about the improved town screens - that was my "no buy" factor. They're still not as good as previous titles IMO (though lacking my favourites, Academy and Sylvan, doesn't help), though it's a hell of a lot better than what they were. I would like to know about the non-campaign...

    Favorite Quote from a Game

    "As amusing as your savage dances are, once again I have proven the superiority of putting your nose to the grindstone and not mucking about." - Sir Roderick Ponce von Fontlebottom the Magnificent Bastard (Jade Empire) Speaking as a combat pragmatist, I absolutely LOVE this line.
