    LoL and the surrender button.

    I agree that the surrender button is a good thing, like anything people use it wrong but if your restrict it because of some people abusing its use because there pissy brats then you would have to take out a lot of mechanics from near 100% of games. I play DOTA2 (did not like LoL, don't know...

    Why the XBone is a good console

    I have to say I am shocked people are defending microsoft for this blatant sign that they do not give a crap about there customers. They have pretty much shown they do not care about you as a customer, only that you give them money, the 24 hour check in seems like a minor inconvience but say...

    All male Fox News panel freak out over the numbers of women providing the main income in households

    My god...just my god. I didn't even realise sexism like this still existed, I have a biology degree and watch all sort of nature documentaries and let me tell you. Females are dominant in the majority of animal societies/groups/everything, main reason well a multitude of animals, birds, lizards...

    Talk about your favourite all time or current game.

    Hey internet/escapist people, most topics on this forum are either against or for a game which goes into a big debate which doesn't mean anything. I want this to basically be a topic to voice what you love about games without anyone saying "oh god no, that's a crap game", if you like a game you...

    Poll: Skyrim- Did you kill Paarthurnax?

    I did not for several reasons. 1. The Greybeards have helped me from whiterun, Ive known the blades like 5 days and they expect me to kill the leader of the people who accepted me into there circle like a son, no way! 2. Paarthurnax helped me with every aspect of defeating Alduin, all the...

    Poll: Evolution Yay or Nah?

    Yeah essentially all of science is theory, its our best guess for what happens around us. Kinda reminds me of what I put for my philosophy of science module, I basically put that whilst religion and science are in a lot ways similar (both draw upon the world around us, people use it to explain...

    Poll: Evolution Yay or Nah?

    Thats not strictly true, evolution isn't always just about adapting to the environment. You have three processes which make up evolution, natural selection (adapting to best suit ones habitat), genetic drift (random genetic mutations that eventually propergate throughout a population if there is...

    Poll: Evolution Yay or Nah?

    Wasnt actually going for it (please trust me on that :P) just wanted to conduct an experiment to get some idea of peoples view on evolution on the internet. Using this as a sample of the overall consensus of the developed world (I know how small of a sample it is and thus unreliable but always...

    Poll: Evolution Yay or Nah?

    I would just like to point out that macro-evolution has a lot of evidence behind it, most notably being speciation, this is the process of a single species undergoing an event which causes another species to arise from that. From your post I am concluding you believe in natural selection but not...

    Poll: Evolution Yay or Nah?

    Really do not understand your post mate, the first part ive explained above but the second is confusing, im from the UK, I will agree that US are bit weird when it comes to acceptance of evolution but as long as they dont build a creation museum here im ok with it (google it if you want to see...

    Poll: Evolution Yay or Nah?

    I want to judge how many people on the escapist accept that evolution is fact, I myself think of it as a fact due to the amount of evidence given towards it and that there is no other viable theory on how life changes over time or how the myriad of species came about. If you have a reason why...

    ANOTHER Missing Link Found!!

    Does sound like your not convinced evolution is fact yet. and the reason its 'missing link' all the time is because scientists say that its the earliest ancestor for mankind which means it gets nearer and nearer to a common ancestor with apes, which means all the papers overhype with the missing...

    Bored of dwalves / elves / mages / ogres? What type of race would you like to see more of?

    hmmm if was sci-fi would be more aliens like tyranids or zerg (biologist so I love race which are made up of bio-engineered beings ^^) or necrons just like robotic doom army :D. Fantasy would go for well the same but like non-scifi style so tyranids would be translated as probably similar to...
