    No Right Answer: Are Gamers Dead?

    The SJ approach to situations like these where you have a minority of people - individuals - engaging in terrible behavior is well documented and the result is the same. It appears to me that their idea is that we have some people who call themselves gamers being douchebags, so we will assign...

    Far Cry 4 to send one lucky contest winner to their death

    I heard about this awhile ago, you're not actually climbing to Everest's peak, you're going to the base camp. And some dude already brought his DS to the actual peak years ago. EDIT: Here we go...

    Fallout: Shadows of Boston Shows Up on IMDB

    Fallout: Shadows of Boston sounds about as foreboding as Fallout: Depths of Wisconsin.

    Winamp Bids a Final Farewell In December

    Agggggh no! To this day I still have Winamp, I find it vastly superior to iTunes in the way it lets me actually use keyboard shortcuts in my gaming applications. It's also small and tidy. Been using it since '98 when we had our old Pentium 2 Gateway. I also used ShoutCast and set up a little...

    Blizzard Revamps WoW's Recruit-a-Friend System With New Rewards

    Cultish? Let me know when they make you sacrifice a live goat to renew your subscription and I'll agree with you (and they better not, do you know how much one of those costs?). It makes sense, they want to hold on to their subscribers so they want to give incentives for people to try and...

    Grand Theft Auto V Torture Scene Causes Uproar

    Instead of parenting, let's just attempt to aggressively scrub any depiction of torture from all media. Yes, that's a great idea.

    Battlefield 4's Single-Player Opens Up

    Just bring back the Battlefield 1942 singleplayer: All the maps with bots and history text and AWESOME MUSIC.

    Jimquisition: Xbox One and the Death of Ownership

    This is really the logical conclusion to IP laws, the only reason no-one's been feeling it is because they haven't been trying to think of ways to enforce it very effectively. Now they are. The eventual dream: People who control the IP charging you per-view per-person, on a medium that you can...

    Xbone Week #1

    Question: If someone yells, "Xbox, search for 'Tubgirl'" can I then yell, "XBOX, BELAY THAT ORDER!" If so, HELL YEAH.

    Destiny May Appear On PC, Says Bungie

    I'd be fine with it if it were divided - keep the PC gamers on their own servers and consoles on theirs. Gamepads vs. Mouse and keyboards should be kept separate.

    Microsoft Applied to Patent TV Achievements

    It's about time I got that achievement for sitting through the entire series of Charmed. Argue all you like about how it was just me sitting there, BUT I GODDAMNED EARNED IT.

    Xbox One Keeps Indie Self-Publishing Off-Limits

    The news just keeps getting worse. I'm still getting the new console anyway because the PS4's share button business doesn't do all that much more to impress me, the only way I'm giving up on Microsoft is if they charge an obscene amount of money for the console, but I can see why everyone else...

    VP Joe Biden Claims "No Restriction" Against Taxing Violent Games

    There's a restriction, it just has no teeth and no respect. The general welfare and commerce clauses are stretched far beyond their actual purpose in order to allow the US government to do pretty much whatever the hell they want, even if it completely invalidates the 9th and 10th amendments. The...

    Poll: Has a game made you cry?

    The end of Red Dead Redemption definitely got me misty eyed, the song at the end being a nice touch. Definitely one of the few times I've been legitimately moved by a game. Pretty much... Mass Effect 3 ALMOST got me there, and then...well, not to belabor the point, but any emotional...

    Lulzsec Members Are Going To Jail

    Simple thought exercise: What if all these guys were, in fact, women? Would you still be cheering for them to get sexually assaulted in prison? Would they then 'deserve' it? These guys deserve to go to jail, but if getting sexually assaulted while you're in prison is part of it then it is...
