    What's the worst injury you've sustained?

    While skiing in fourth grade....... I hit a patch of ice while racing down the mountain. I lost control and did a yard sale, yet I would not stop sliding at the same speed I was racing down the mountain. The trail turned, I did not. I hit the treeline. I hit a tree with my back (knocked...

    Witcher 2 Price Goes Up Down Under

    Does anyone have an example of a AAA game that was only distributed online? Right now current pc games are pegged at 39.99 to 49.99 dollars for regular versions. I guesstimate 10%-20%? is for distribution costs? I'm still wondering we need publishers as we get more digital. I know that...

    Osama Bin Laden Celebrations labelled "Disguisting"

    I'm just going to throw out my American feelings on the matter: It's more a degree of perspective and lack of a thorough education of our founding fathers. Perspective: George Washington was on our side fighting for us, Osama was fighting against us. We almost always "root for the home...

    Korea Sets Curfew for Underage Gamers

    Living here in Korea now and it's my observation that the parents have absolutely no clue what their kids do. The workloads that the parents force on their children is just ridiculous. Korean kids usually go to 5 to 7 hagwons (study schools) after their normal school ends. Usually they...

    The Misadventures of the Escapist

    I was playing tag with a cop and robbers theme when I was in elementary school. Anyways, we were playing in a hilly wooded area and I was being chased by a "Cop" down a hill. Little did I see (it was twilight) the clothesline hanging between trees. So I ran full speed into the clothesline and...

    NASA Scientist Claims to Have Found Evidence of Extraterrestrial Life

    So suppose this is 100% scientifically vetted, for example its not a carbon based life-form. I'm curious how religions, specifically Christianity and Islam, would react to aliens. If anyone is well versed in religion I would like to hear your comments. Also I am curious about the story of...

    Poll: Mass Effect MMO, anyone?

    In order for a ME MMO to be successful, I think they would need to create space and ground combat. Both space and ground would need to be explorable. Despite wanting an ME MMO, I think that the ME universe is too big for an MMO game. However, if they decided to do it: For ground combat, I...

    Given a chance, what race would you be (From a game)

    I would want to be either an Asari Reaper, or failing that the cyborg from Dues Ex. If I were to choose a race from all media, I would want to be a half-vampire from the "D the vampire hunter world" and embrace my vampiric nature.

    Dragon Age 2 Warrior Skill Trees Revealed

    I just played a rogue and it seems that debilitating potions/ poisons? are in their own skill tree. You don't make them. Also, I didn't see any separate options for increasing speech or other skills like herbalism and lockpicking. They could be included in skill trees or other options, but I...

    Dragon Age 2 Warrior Skill Trees Revealed
