Ya'll are spice addicts? Lot'sa Dune fans, here. The Song of Fire and Ice is reaaaaally easy to find, thank god, I never fail to stumble across at least one of 'em at used book stores. A great recommendation.

Two Worlds. I bought two copies of the Collector's Edition from the store a certain somebody on this site works at, one for me and one for him, after the manager (mis)informed we could play it together. The multiplayer was terrible. Like, completely unforgivably awful and not at all what we...

Personally, I've never put much stock in gamertags. I've met some great players (skill and manners) with a plethora of ridiculous titles. That being said, personal experience tells me other people-- in general-- do care. The advent of the headset has lead to some serious gamertag-induced...

I can relate to that, sure. It sure as heck wasn't FF7, that's for sure... just ridin' the bandwagon. So far as hack'n slashers go, it wasn't bad-- but I think they missed their thirsty-for-a-tale audience by hundreds of yards. The reviews were just... misleading.

The "Elric Saga" by Micheal Moorcock. His other stuff isn't bad, but the Elric Saga... mm. I read and re-read every book in the series throughout my childhood, I could probably recite them backwards to this day. Most of his stuff (ie: the stuff worth reading) is out of print and hard to...

Mars from the movie "Hostage", hands down. The feller just strikes a spooky figure, don'cha know.

It's a famous blog, and well worth mentioning. Thanks for takin' the time to find it!

Pfah. Couldn't have the characters, so I did one better-- I started dating a nerd. ... but honestly? I have plans for that dashing Professor Layton. What a charmer. We'd probably exchange puzzles over tea, make polite conversation, and trundle off arm in arm to solve crime. You mean Amy...

Go climb up your thumbs, boys-- That bird Tyr has knocked it on the beezer. Now, if you boys don't mind, I think I'll take a powder.

Civ Rev stole my life for a week. I want it back. Not the week. I want Civ Rev. In answer to your question; there is no correct answer. Flexible criteria can make for more informative articles, but then again, it also usually means a longer word count, or extended work hours, which can be a...

Personally speaking, I don't drink, and I don't smoke, and I'm terrified of doctors and their slapdash medications. Mind you, there's always been a bit of a stigma attached to gamers. Some folks would be content to believe we are a slovenly crew, with addictive personalities abounding. So...

First off, loved the humor in the topic leader. Well done, Mr. Doctorpus. I spent forever and a day looking forward to Operation: Darkness. I mean, really. Nazi's. Tanks. Werewolves. How could they go wrong, here? The answer; make every playable female character weaker in every way, with no...

I've only ever met one person whom I know to be Mexican, and he's a wonderful young man and a very talented artist. Mind you, I'm one of those folks who think borders really shouldn't be anything but an imaginary line, and ethnicity isn't important: manners are. I hear the country is full of...

OddWorld: Abe's Adventure was flipping fantastic. The backgrounds never ceased to fascinate me. Isn't Steam wonderful?

When I was younger, and a heck of a lot dumber, I had a distempered partner with a penchant for ceaseless criticism and minor physical assaults. Never hurt me, so I let it slide for a lot longer than I shoulda. Until said partner made every effort to strangle me in an empty, dark parking lot...
