    All the EB's in the UK turned into Game many, many years ago.

    I think you did the maths wrong. The total price of those games is £34.25, which is a saving of 75p. It's a crap deal for sure, but you're not paying £35.75 which is what I read when you say you're paying an extra 75p. It's no different with Game here in Australia. They have a sign up saying...

    Syndicate Banned in Australia - UPDATED

    The problem I have is not that they banned this game, it's the inconsistency. There are already games with graphic violence available, games with dismemberment etc. Either ban them all or ban none of them. One of the arguments against an R18+ rating is that children will get hold of violent...

    Poll: Picketing the Future Funeral of Fred Phelps (Leader of the Westboro Baptist Church)

    Yes. An eye for eye and all that. Definitely give them a taste of their own medicine. If that makes me petty, then so be it.

    Do you think it is academic dishonesty to reuse papers you already wrote for a previous class?

    Thanks for the response WeAreStevo! I have to disagree with trooper6's definition of plagiarism. Every resource I look at defines plagiarism as using someone else's work as your own. I can't see myself ever changing my mind on this no matter how it's presented to me, that using your own work...

    Could those people who say it's plagiarism please explain to me how you can plagiarise your own work? Also when I was at university for every assignment I had to hand in there was a cover sheet which I had to sign to say it was all my own work blah, blah, blah... and that it was a piece of...

    Will Skyrim be this generations Ocarina of time? If it becomes the most overrated game of all time...then, yes.

    What the hell escapist

    Since when was ad blocking software illegal? I know companies make money from advertising but surely a user has the choice as to whether they wish to see ads or not.

    "Ico and Shadow of the Colossus HD Collection"Comes out Tommorow. Who's getting it?

    I never played Shadow of the Colossus but ICO I played numerous times. It's an incredible game. I have been trying to get a copy since I traded mine in many years ago, much to my regret. But I refused to play the HUGE prices slapped onto the game. So I will be getting it, replaying ICO and...

    Arkham City... WTF?!

    All these pre-order bonuses are just to get people to buy the game new and not wait to buy it pre-owned. They don't care about anything else but that sale. The industry believes the pre-owned market is killing them. To which I say bullshit, I've been gaming about 17 years and there has...
