    Pokemon Research Proves Squirtle To Be Best Starter

    Charmander all the goddamn way baby. Why? I'll tell you why. Because he proved his motherfucking mettle in the TV series. That's when I realized that you could never ever count Charmander out. He had so much goddamn spirit that even Brock could see it. Case. Closed.

    Escapist Expo: The Escapist Q&A ? Day 1

    And it's the one time (well one of three over the weekend, but just one weekend) in the entire year when you're all in one room. If that's not a great setup to sexy fun times, I don't know what is.

    People ARE getting dumber (14 I.Q. points dumber)

    Well, I think this just about wraps this thread up. "Victorian-era studies suffered from selection bias? Egad." Still, I'm really glad someone compiled the message in an appropriately sized package.

    Ideas To Improve Next Elder Scrolls Melee Combat

    So to fix the combat in the Elder Scrolls games, you propose to make Backstabbing overpowered right out of the gate? AND add a QTE to game series that's otherwise stat-based? Sorry, I don't follow your logic. What TES combat needs is more varied animations, reactions and sound effects. The...

    Hating James Vega?

    His primary purpose was to act as a proxy for people who hadn't played the previous two games. A person who needed everything to be explained to him, and that can really rub longtime fans the wrong way. And I'll admit, at first I completely ignored him, since I was gonna save the galaxy with my...

    Create a new game plot using the name of an existing one.

    Gears of War: You are an army mechanic in a steampunk universe. You go around trying to keep the vehicles in working order as the unit is sent out on missions. This would involve bartering with the locals and other military mechanics for parts and raw materials, as well as scavenging useful bits...

    Bungie Plans to Reveal Destiny Soon

    More than anything, I love the fact that Bungie takes the time to create enemies that aren't just the player but worse. I plan on keeping an eye on this, just so long as there isn't a library mentioned anywhere...

    EA Executive Admits Used Games Aren't All Bad

    Maybe there was a throwdown in the boardroom and people are looking to air out each other's dirty laundry. Or do you think, maybe, just maybe, that EA finally put a computer in the boardroom, and the big C's started browsing forums?

    Aliens: Colonial Marines Review - Game Over, Man

    I have just one question: Would my dad and I, both big fans of Aliens, enjoy the co-op?

    The Pentagon Goes Hollywood

    I'd argue there's a difference between a film being anti-war versus being anti-military. Most of those films take a "War is a bad thing" approach, rather than "People who engage in war are bad" one. When's the last time you saw a movie hero portrayed as a absolute psychopath, like Reznov from...

    Pirate Party Politician Fights Piracy (Of Her Book)

    I think you're both right. The aritcle should've made clear it was the publisher that was throwing around DMCAs, because that's the truth. But it could've still remarked that as a member of a Pro-Pirate political party, she shouldn't have signed into a traditional publishing deal. I mean, I...

    Miracle of Sound: Roll Out (Transformers)

    DAT SYNTH. DEM ROLL CALL LYRICS. It's like a concentrated dosage of everything good about 80's cartoon themes filtered though a healthy sense of self-aware humor all wrapped up in a bundle of pure unadulterated love. I knew there would be a silver lining to M.o.S. going once a month. I...

    EA Signs On to GaymerCon

    The war against bigotry is fought on many fronts. One that I feel is often neglected is making sure there's a place for like-minded people to come together and just connect and be happy. I feel GaymerCon is trying to fill that spot. Even if it's just a PR stunt on EA's side, it gives...

    Warp Drive Might Actually Be Possible

    I already wear a goatee. I have for many years. But I don't want to destroy and/or enslave the world. Does that mean I'm a evil version of myself with amnesia? Or that my good version is an asshole? Either way, you gotta love it when scientists talk to each other. Perturbing space-time and...

    Bioware Sucks at Story telling

    To me, Bioware is a chef who isn't trying to make some really crazy meal that you remember because it was full of stuff you've never seen before, like puffer fish and broccoli ice cream. Bioware's just making steak and potatoes, a good ol' favorite that makes you feel right at home But maybe...
