    A Defense of Thorin's Claim on the Treasure of Erebor

    That was an awesome read. A good take on the subject, and pretty funny. If only the 15th Dwarf would've been Nasrin Lawgiver the story might've ended differently. Sure, The Hobbit part 3 would have been a bit more boring, just like the Star Wars prequels and all their intergallactic...

    The Elder Scrolls Online Fails - Working as Intended

    At least these are the problems people get while playing the game. I'd like to propose the inclusion of the considerable amount of people that simply have never been able to even connect to the game. It's been 7 days since I purchased The Elder Scrolls Online, and I have not been able to even...

    The Escapist Means More Than Just Video Games

    I'm superhappy to see that finally other arts of escapism are starting to be included in the syphon of all of them, this here show. But I still feel that one of the greatest, and most definitely one of the firstests, is still being neglected: Books. I hear someone saying: "You mean Comics?"...

    Non-fiction reading - What books are you tackling?

    Well, this past months have been strangly non-fictionally and I have read loads of the stuff (although some of it really sounds more like fiction at times). Amongst others I have finished (in no particular order): 1) Religion & Science by Bertrand Russell. 2) The Demon Hunted World (Science...

    A Machine For Pigs: Daddy, Please Don't Kill Me

    Rather interesting Mr. Croshaw. I liked listening to your un-Yahtzee persona in this very different tone. It mixed very well with the ZP style plus you do analysis fine. I hope we'll get more commentary in this vein in the times to come. d(-_-)b <----- Solemn aproval. PS: I haven't played...

    Jim & Yahtzee's Rhymedown Spectacular: Cabin Fever

    Classic! Specially Jim's versification of a journey of self-discovery (although the journey took place while stranded). Masterpiece. Which will also remind me to pack my bags to travel through bad weather with games such as X-Blades and Extreme Beach Volleyball, in case of mischance. Overall a...

    Jimquisition: Time To Get Paid

    I just saw Payday on a store today and was wondering if it was any good. It looked good, what's more, it looked interesting, plus I saw the logo of the studio that made the Riddick games, which I enjoyed loads and helped wash down the bad taste of the films. I shall buy tomorrow then. I...

    Humble Origin Bundle Breaks $5 Million

    ^^^Exactly this.^^^ I have been made a happy gamer (and other escapistic aspects) by Humble Bundle many a time, and was card in hand ready to get this deal too and help (as a great side-effect) some good charities... until I read that you would STILL need their respective digital...

    Jimquisition: Xbox One No DRM Emergency Special!

    Awesome. Jim, I have been warned by the moderators because I post too briefly and not "discuss" the topic at hand, but screw it, all I want to say is: Man, you really make me laugh. You have a gift.

    The Big Picture: Man of Tomorrow

    LIKE THE SHOW THIS COMMENT INCLUDES SPOILERS: Strange, I understood that when he killed Zod, he cried out not because he had murdered, but because he had failed. Failed in all he was meant to succeed: Bridging the two species. If my memory can be trusted to extrac a detail from all that...

    Jimquisition: The Creepy Cull of Female Protagonists

    I learnt about Remember Me when Jim first mentioned it here (already a while back). It piqued my curiosity specially when told that the game creator had to fight really hard to protect her protagonist (an Errorist named Nilin) from being turned into a man, under the ridiculous reasoning from...

    Master Of Monsters

    Ufff... these are sad news. I've seen all of the films you mentioned in the article (when they came out and I was very little), and one of the reasons I love movies (just as many present day filmmakers talk about King Kong or Lawrence of Arabia being pivotal to their love of the medium) are...

    We Really, Really Don't Need New Consoles

    I really, really, REALLY agree.

    Jimquisition: The Creepy Cull of Female Protagonists

    The answer to your compulsion question is: Your size. You are our Big Daddy (although we just call you Mr. Bubbles). :)
