    When Did "Easy" Become "Casual" Difficulty?

    Casual is starting to be a more negative word lately, partly due to developers using it as a excuse/reason to limit or remove certain content. A good example is guild wars 2 where developers intentionally put in diminishing returns and drop/karma caps to "promote casual play styles". (though...

    Poll: Did you ever bully someone?

    Yes i bullied a few people, but generally only with specific personal reasons :P -some fat kid that other bullies left alone as long as he'd harass me, needless to say i didn't spare any pity to that guy. -someone who used to bully me, he had to wear glasses a few years later and was oddly...

    ME3: Best Sniper Rifle (let's keep the spoilers mild)

    Just stay away from the javelin and the incisor, Javelin needs to charge before shooting making it nearly useless while incisor is trumped by raptor in every way. Raptor is great as a machine gun, tons of ammo, great accuracy and easy to get headshots vs soft targets with. pretty useless vs...

    Being spoken to in your native language

    Dutch is my native language and it is a bit complicated :P I do generally like to be spoken to in dutch, but if their English is better they should stick to that. And i had several people that could just not pronounce my name cause of the "tijn" part. which does get annoying if they insist...

    is it worth getting psp?

    just keep a few things in mind: -psp go: digital only, often more expensive (at least here in eu) -psp e1000: DO NOT BUY THIS!!! (eu/aus budget version with functions removed and still costlier then a american 3k) -psp 1-3k: all are cheap and quite good, some small screen and thickness...

    Just wondering, which are the "evil" gaming companies?

    Sony, to much copy pasting other company's features and producing horrible stuff them self. psp go and psp e1000 anyone? region locked digital purchases on region lock free handheld? those are just giant fuck you statements to your customers. EA is pretty much a given. And as much i don't...

    Skyrim Mods You Want to See

    Destructible objects: similar to the barricades in game, when houses, trees, fences and tons of other objects take to much damage they show it in tiers. Small items can get destroyed this way. Large objects/structures get gradually repaired by npc's as long as there's at least 1 good house...

    Worst review ever?

    Darren Nakamura of destructoid his tactics ogre revieuw is just horrible, he's completely unable to grasp what aspects work well in a srpg... for example he thinks the chariot is only meant as a way to save time so you can get trough the story easier which he claims it doesn't do. (ow hey...

    Saints Row dev: "Xbox 720 used game ban would be fantastic."

    Retina scans and dna scans say hello, though i must admit i got no idea how hard it is to implement nor how expensive. but they can pull it off on cars if they wanted to, and if it was economically viable.

    The Playstation Vita and The Extremely Excited Gamer

    I might buy one if they get rid of the buy to replay old games crap, it drops in price drastically and has several good srpg's out. that being said, i don't think this will go well at all for sony. (and it shouldn't with the bullshit they're pulling)

    Poll: L.A. Noir for P.C. - experiences?

    I bought it of steam during the winter sale, had no problem getting it to work at all. I did find the LA noire neon sign loading screen very obnoxious to the point that i'd get headaches from it though, might not be good for people with epilepsy.

    Poll: Sony Pulls Out of the Console Race

    Sony proves competition doesn't inspire greatness. what do they do to compete better? reduce losses like the psp e1000. how can you even respect a company that sells you a product with removed functions for the price of what america is already paying for the 3k? As far as horrible decisions...

    Gamers: AAA Titles Generally Aren't Shit.

    I wish it was that simple; -The bigger the following of a franchise, the more likely it will sell ridiculously well. regardless of duration, game play or quality. Basically rewarding major developers/publishers by releasing crap. -Many big time publishers/developers have tons of copyrighted...

    ACTA - EU member assigned to monitor it Resigns in protest.

    It barely even made the news here, only saw it on a few websites of dutch origin so far and nothing about it on major tv channels at all... it's really being brushed under the carpet here in the Netherlands, a democratic party tried to have make acta public, but the 2 parties that have...
