    Your Weird Phobias?

    Cicadas. I got swarmed by whole bunch of them when I was a kid and I've never been the same around them. Even now that I know they're literally harmless and suicidally stupid, they scare the piss out of me

    Which game do you Rage at most?

    There are too many games to count that I can rage at. I specifically remember buying the infamous Sonic 06 for the sole purpose of getting really angry at it and having a grand ol' time. Another "game" that I raged at for a good while was Asura's Wrath. However, my go to outlet for all my...

    When your favorite series derails

    Anyone remember the Jak and Daxter series? First two games were really awesome. Third game was pretty good in my opinion. Then Jak X, which was a racing game... What? It wasn't terrible by any stretch of the mind, but it felt like the series had literally jumped the rails. Apparently they made a...

    MLP - Keep calm and flutter on - Review

    To me, it felt like the writers were holding out for most of the episode. As if they were just having fun with Discord animating kitchenware, and then at the last minute, pulled back and said "Seriously though, we have to actually do this" and reformed Discord. The ending felt pretty rushed and...

    Why With All The Crying?

    I have to admit I'm pretty sentimental. Any scene with a good amount of buildup and emotional weight can get me a little misty eyed. That being said, a good majority of the social links in Persona 4 got me a little teary-eyed towards the end of their run. Not to mention the scenes in the...

    Best Addons

    The expansion pack to The Binding of Isaac added another 20-30 hours to a game that already had a huge amount of content. Plus I got it for like a buck on Steam. I'd say I got value out of that purchase

    Theoretically Killing Off One Person In History.

    Actually, a lot of people lend credence to the theory that alcohol is one of the reasons civilization even exists. People discovered you could ferment different plants into booze, but the problem is you had to tend the crops year round. Leading to agriculture and eventually life as we know it today

    Poll: The Wii U

    I've had multiple lengthy arguments with my friends about the Wii U. Suffice it to say, I can see potential in it, but from what I've seen no developer has even started making interesting titles for it. They're going to have to do something really incredible for me to even consider buying one...

    Fellow Magic players, what's your favorite combo(s)?

    Oh man, how can I choose? So many fun combos... A good one I run right now is [mtg_card=Heartless Summoning] + 2 [mtg_card=Myr Retriever] + [mtg_card=Falkenrath Noble]/[mtg_card=Selhoff Occultist] My favorite has got to be the Ally creature type, though. Slapping [mtg_card=Freed From the...

    What is the geekest thing you own?

    Pez dispensers are good. I've got a set of the cast of Next Generation. Anyone remember the toys from Burger King when Pokemon: The First Movie came out? There were like a hundred of the damn things. Well, for Christmas that year, my aunt got me every single one of them. They're all currently...

    Games with great story but bad gameplay

    Even though I love the game to death, I'd say Persona 4. One of the most engaging narratives I've ever seen, some of the deepest and most likeable characters in gaming, and a cool, unique aesthetic puts this game pretty high on my favorites list. Unfortunately it has a boring turn based combat...

    Poll: are the catholics outdated?

    Um, I've been a Catholic all my life, and I've been surrounded by Catholics. I went to Church every Sunday and attend Catholic school. And let me tell you, even when the last Pope died, no one I knew cared that much. The Pope just isn't that big a deal anymore. No one bases their decisions...
