Hello, Escapists! Starting today, I am going to be reviewing games that are close to my heart for one reason or another. The review itself, however, will probably be the most brief part. Mainly, I'd like to discuss small moments in games that elicited an actual emotional reaction in me. These...

Reservoir Dogs--crime movie that is violent and depressing Chronicle--don't know if this is your kind of thing, but I was surprised at how tense it was. Really serious, really sad movie after you get past the initial goofing around.

Oh dear. What the actual fuck. OT: That's not apathy. Apathy is where you don't care. You obviously care very much. I don't have that problem. I liked dragon age 2. I thought the story was intriguing, though I didn't like it near as much as dragon age 1. Even so, I don't feel betrayed that it...

I'm not familiar with the show. Could you describe the decision he made? I feel sorry for us, too, actually. Just the other day, I was at my high school graduation, and they were giving out several $200 prizes for perfect attendance. It was unsettling to me that the administration was...

I believe, sir, that you meant Deschain. And Stephen. And uh...yeah. Me too.

Indie: Passage

Yes, anything that can make me empathize with someone I normally would never think of, I love it.

Time to talk about perfection, fellow Escapists. One thing I count as perfection in a game is the ability to effect me emotionally, so I'll start off by talking about a game very close to my heart: Civilization V. I downloaded the demo foe Civ V (the first Civilization game I've played) in...

If Bioshock 1 was a pretty fun game with a mildly interesting story to you, Bioshock 2 would've sent you into convulsions. Supreme let down.

I have the urge to replay dead space now. Really looking forward to dead space 2, even if it probably won't actually be scary. Looks fucking sweet.

Can't agree more. "Hey, you know that guy you could have shot in the head? Well he's (don't know how to spoiler, so SPOILER) alive. Also you have super powers. Sound good?" The bear was cool though. I liked the bear. A sudden thought about the difficulty of Dead Space: Insane mode: All...

>implying difficulty = horror Don't get me wrong, both are good games (I really do recommend at least trying Metro, I found it quite interesting and it has some wonderful atmosphere, albeit I was never scared. It's more unnerving than scary (thinking of the scene with the gate/door thing in the...

/b/ seems to have a strong dislike of furries for some reason. They'll tolerate pedos, thieves, drug addicts...but not furries. I've never been sure why, but you could try again on a Friday. Friday on /b/ is Furday (there might still be hate, but not as much)

Ok...that may not be such a good first impression, but uh...hm...it's a bit tricky to convince people the site with self-butt-sexing guys is a place they should check out again. But hey! Could be worse! His own dick could've been in a child's ass. You have to see the good things.

Seeing as I forgot to include indifferent, I'm just counting the child porn one as indifferent. Also, I'm shocked. I thought like 80% of the Escapist hated 4chan. If the poll is honest, twice as many people like it than hate it. The more you know.
