    British sitcoms. Whats your view?

    Well, as a Brit, I would obviously be a biased opinion here and say, pretty good. But, I won't deny there have been some real stinkers. The Inbetweeners as a recent example, it took me all three series to finally decide that actually I actually liked. I guess it's the same as any other countries...

    Mass Effect is not an RPG

    There is a point though in that fact, RPG is a general term that has been attached to a specific set of conventions, perverting it's original meaning. When you say RPG many people now think of halth bars, stats, skills, items, quest and all the other trappings that go with it, but truly...

    Concerning Justin Bieber

    Because he's an arrogant little prick that seems to think he's entitled to all the trappings of fame when in truth all he did was getting lucky unlike many incredibly talented artists who will never get the break that they actually deserve.

    Poll: Oddworld...

    I loved odessey and exodus, they were brilliant. However, Munch was a big steaming pile of crap. I hated it, I don't think they converted to 3d platform games that well.

    I have had it with Valve

    At least when they do get round to releasing games their of a good standard. Way too often now games are released that are either really boring and a clone of something else or are too buggy to play. So what would you prefer, an unplayable buggy crap game or the usual valve quality even though...

    viet nam

    That would be a pretty awesome game. One of the few times where two sides that are almost technological equals (Britain had a slight advantage in technology, but very slight) and where two modernised airforces have faced each other. I think there is an Operation Flashpoint mod for it, but I...

    viet nam

    Okay now I disagree with the guy claiming the US won Vietnam but to pull someone up on that and then pull a statistic like that, half a million??? Seriously? If that were true no wonder it was such a tremendous balls up, what do you think they were doing, just running at North Vietnam shouting...

    TESV Skyrim: Possibly Features a third Numidium. (Pics)

    I just can't believe they managed to announce Elder Scrolls V and I entirely missed it! After years of speculation, it's Skyrim! Awesome!

    Woman Claims to Own the Sun

    I refuse to pay for the sun, I didn't ask for her service, nor did I subscribe, she has attempted to claim my custom by fraud and deception. Also someone should call the competition commission or something, she has a monopoly on suns and I don't think that represents a fair market for the...

    Minecraft has ruined inception for me

    Okay, for this post to make sense you need to: A. Have played minecraft B. Have seen Inception ME and my friends have become heavily addicted to playing minecraft, there's something addictive about what is essentially playing with computerised lego. We also love the film inception and were...

    So Prop. 19 didnt go through (the one about Legalizing Marijuana)

    OP, as someone pointed out, 97% didn't vote the number was more 40-60% as if you look at the numbers, no county got a 97% turnout of voters. That means alot of registered voters didn't vote. Now if you care about this bill so much that you come onto the escapist and complain about it have you...

    Does "film-noir" actually exist?

    Doing a Film and TV degree, walked about this last year in Classical Hollywood. Of the reading I found basically you cannot tie down the elements of film noir, not all films considered film noir have the same themes and thematic elements so on the one hand, no it's not a genre because you can't...

    Bethesda working on "Secret Project"

    Yay a new elder scrolls finally! Unfortunately because of it being in development for 2 years it will probably not benefit from Id Tech 5 engine :(

    "Journalist" Who Wrote Fake GTA Story Ridicules Gamers

    Clearly he went to the Piers Morgan school of Journalism, make a fake photo invent a story and sell sell sell. He's another self rigtheous idiot who will probably make a TV career after everyones forgotten what a slimey honourless dirtbag he is.
