    Poll: Should I accept my mother in this scenario?

    I'm gonna go with 'No' in this situation. Normally, I'd say that you should give your mother a chance and accept her for now at least. But it's your Dad's place: So like many others have noted, it's his call. If you both can't stand her, then you might want to recommend that he not accept her...

    Modder Creates Amazing Dreamcast Handheld

    I would probably buy one if I could. That is, it all depends on whether or not I could dig up the games from that Dreamcast I had back in the day...

    Katamari Creator: Gaming's Future Looks "Dull"

    I can understand why he's unimpressed by everything at E3 this year. It's not really moving anywhere; Microsoft and Sony getting on board with motion controls doesn't really change anything. Sure, now they have a shot at Nintendo's pie, but it's pretty disappointing that they're merely chasing...

    New iphone app makes you a virtual girlfriend out of barcodes

    I remember I once had a Pokemon rip-off barcode monster-battling system that worked sort of like this. I gave it up quickly as it was incredibly boring, but I imagine that people using this would have an entirely different... motivation than I did.

    Commonly misunderstood words that get your blood boiling

    'Role-Playing Game' doesn't even go that far; RPG just means a game where you play as someone or something other than yourself. But it's used to describe any game with a turn-based combat system and a world map. A better term would be 'Turn-Based Adventure Game'... Then again, I guess people...

    Exploration in Videogames

    This thread reminds me of one of the only good games based off a movie (the only I've played, but perhaps there are one or two more), Spiderman 2. My memory may be glamorizing it, but for me, this game screamed to be explored. The story missions were sprawled all over the city, and didn't only...

    Videogame protagonist you wouldn't want to be

    Luigi is worse off. He doesn't even get cake. The best he's ever gotten is a haunted mansion that he then had to clean up.

    Poll: Coolest headwear

    I have a boonie hat. I look stupid wearing it. But it is awesome nonetheless.

    Deadly Sins of gaming!

    I agree. I would also add releasing multiple copy-pasta games. Why would I shell out more money for a game I already have?

    Marketing hype

    Short answer: No, I don't buy games purely based on marketing. I'm not going to go out and spend my money just because some ad told me to. However, I am susceptible to marketing techniques to a degree. For example, I considered buying Starcraft 2 just because of how much people seem to like...
