Go into the corner and cry... ya, I'm a pretty pathetic guy :(

Super 3D Noah's Ark. It sucked, I was horrible at it, and I hated it. As I grew up and got older I would bring it up to some of my friends, but no one knew what it was or what I was tripping on. And then I learned that it is kind of infamous in the gaming community for being a horrible and...

I like the Two Thrones the most, although Sands of Time is a close second. It incorporates better platforming compared to Warrior Within and takes from Warrior Within a combat system lacking from Sands of Time. I didn't enjoy Warrior Within as much because traversing the Island of Time wasn't...

I don't see the draw to the games at this point. I loved the first Fable. It had a decent combat system, simple story but well put together, somewhat varied side quests, at the time original title/naming system, and nice music and atmosphere. When the second Fable came out I was pretty...

I live in the US, with that said I usually tip 10-15% for average service, 10% tops if the server was rude or horrible and without an excuse, and 20%+ if the service was excellent. If I just ordered a small amount of food or am getting a specialty drink at a bar I tend to just double the bill. I...

Just graduated from college and have yet to land a job... games are expensive :(

I played it during Vanilla and that started up again with the Burning Crusade. I originally started it with my brother and I loved it. It was new and interesting, my first mmo and pretty standard fare for an RPG. Burning Crusade added some new things and fixed a bit, but being a student I really...

I would also suggest Portal, Prince of Persia(2008), and Shadow of the Colossus. I got one of my female friends into a bit of gaming with Prince of Persia. She is totally into cars and body kits, paint jobs, etc. and she's shown some interest in playing racing games. So I'd think about what...

1st: Planetary exploration in the Mako as said numerous times by others. Most planets were just plain awful, way too mountainous and almost no flat lands or hills. So many of the interest points to scout or minerals to mine were specifically placed in the heart of pain in the ass territory. Now...

Frostmourne Although, I guess that isn't very fanciful since you can buy them. I'm just too darn cheap to drop 150USD on some eye-candy.

Actually, most of the studies referenced in your links don't disprove violence correlates with video games, but rather point out other positive effects of some genres, use ambiguous research variables, are editorials, or are non-numerical meta-analysis. The terms "aggression" and "violence"...

That if you're nice to people, they'll be nice to you back :(

Hurlock General in Dragon Age :) Just on the verse of finishing the game for my first time but haven't gotten back to it in a couple of days.

If it is like Guild Wars then it would cease to be an MMO, and just be an online cooperative game. To keep with the gameplay of the Mass Effect games it would have to be a MMOFPS, which to date have all failed, not to say that a well made one couldn't be commercially successful, but making an...

It really doesn't have anything to do with The Escapist or Pandemic. Some U.S. states, and Canada have certain laws that restrict how sweepstakes occur in their jurisdictions and for the most part companies don't abide by those rules because they're too much of a pain in the ass.
