    On Multiplayer

    Well that is a good reason and there seem to be plenty of people in this thread that agree. I personally don't play RTS multiplayer because of the phenomena that it isn't fun for someone that doesn't deeply care about winning. I like shooter multiplayer games because there is a place in SOME of...

    Zero Punctuation: BioShock 2

    I completely agree and at this point I think they have reached the misinformation stage. Not only does Yahtzee ignore parts of games, he actually gives false information to his viewers about game mechanics. Maybe his bosses should give him so time to actually play games; otherwise, he should...

    Goth Mercenaries

    I was one of those Fanboys that didn't reply to the Borderlands review. I think for some of us it just wasn't worth it to be shouted down by the Yahtzee sycophants. We come here listening to rants about how creativity is the most important thing in games and how you are sick of playing sequels...

    Infinity Ward Teases Modding Tools for PC Modern Warfare 2

    Once again, another article hostile towards the opinions of seasoned PC gamers. Kudos Escapist.

    Gamer Petitions Infinity Ward for Color Blind Option in Modern Warfare 2

    Thank you Evil Avatar for trolling the PC community. Not like us PC gamers didn't already feel constantly harassed and shouted down by the console crowd on the escapist, best to mock us for understand our platform as well. Really mature writing there. While I support the colorblind option...

    IW ruin MW2 online gameplay before it even releases. Updated.

    There are people who have trouble and that is why the TF2 browser has change so many times to move the mod servers in and out of the main tab. Now they have more filters, but the issue remains that people who only want to play Vanilla have trouble finding those servers and people who have modded...

    IW ruin MW2 online gameplay before it even releases. Updated.

    I think what you all don't realize is how simple mods can be and how much better than can make the game. Say in COD4 you hate Juggernaut and Stopping Power but love the rest of the game the way it is...with a mod you can do that on your server. Say you like helicopters but don't want kills from...

    IW ruin MW2 online gameplay before it even releases. Updated.

    Seems odd that there is no Escapist story on this yet. I know it is console centric publication, but this is as big as the L4D2 boycott now. The petition has reached around 60,000 signatures and might be on the way to Star Craft 2 Lan petition numbers. Even gamesindustry.biz has reported it...

    Who Owns the Rights to Your Face?

    Saying never here is a luxury of human mortality. Likely it won't happen in our lifetimes, but there are some obvious concerns. The things is that these advances will happen gradually and people will adjust their lives into it. I often wonder what Ben Franklin, Jules Verne, or other forward...

    Wii gaming

    I get the feeling more PC users are understanding of the role Wii can play in their gaming repertoire. Sure it doesn't do everything well, but it is certainly better than adding an Xbox 360 or PS3 to your hardware collection just for action/adventure and sports (though PC racing fans will never...

    Wii Owners Play Console Least, Says Nielsen

    What? A console that sometimes requires physical activity and has limited online play does not get played as much as Xbox360 with its players that have a permanent butt dent in their sofas? You don't say. Since it is a percentage as many have pointed out, the non-hardcore gamers who do not...

    Poll: Favourite game in call of duty series

    No, all the reasons I gave made it superior. Let me add to the list for the pre-COD4 CoDs: No Perks (Tell me the game wouldn't be better without Juggernaut, Stopping Power, Martyrdom, and the bugged Last Stand...not to mention the magical ability to make your gun fire faster or be more...

    Poll: Favourite game in call of duty series

    This thread just shows the make up of the Escapist. Most of you never even played any of the PC ones and this was a PC franchise long before COD4. Maybe that shows my age too. COD:UO is the best out of all of them and I have trouble finding people who have played it to disagree. That of...

    Zero Punctuation: Wii Sports Resort

    What really bothers me is this argument that the Wii should be a 1:1 machine. Go ahead have a 12 year old golf like they really would. Think you can serve like Andy Roddick? Lol, no. Or perhaps you would like resistance behind your sword every time you hit someone? Guess you are going to be...

    Zero Punctuation: Wii Sports Resort

    Once again I would appreciate it if Yahtzee would play the freakin' game. Here is a legitimate review criticism he could have made: "While the Motion Plus make Table Tennis far more strength and spin conscious than the original Wii Sports Tennis, if you ever forget to center the paddle your...
