When I was a kid, I cried if I didn't get what I wanted. I cried when I lost something I liked a lot. When I was a teen, I cried when I lost the love of my life. I cried when I felt an utter loss of control over my life. As an adult, you know what, I can honestly say I am quite similar. I...

Case in point: "Satan represents kindness to those who deserve it, instead of love wasted on ingrates. Satan represents vengeance instead of turning the other cheek. If a guest in your home annoys you, treat them cruelly and without mercy. When walking in open territory, bother no one. If...

Well... the premise for that game is absolutely abhorrent and it never should have been made. That said, Valve did not make it, so Jack is kind of out of luck there. Secondly, I love how he writes his letters. They don't even have the pseudo-nicety of lawyer-speak "cease and desist" letters...

Certainly you're entitled to your opinion, and I think it's reasonable to dislike the concept. First, for full disclosure's sake: I have not played the game, though I really found it tasteless that their selling point was that moms hate it...because, you know, parents don't have enough to deal...

I guess I'm confused because I'm an American without any concept of capping, period, since the "good old days" of dialup. I have unlimited bandwidth, and didn't even realize that places in Canada had a 200gb cap, let alone considering dropping it further. Really? That makes me mad and it...

Assuming pure science, which is pure objectivity/observation and no subjectivity (this is the only way they could be mutually exclusive): Science allows one to live. Art makes life worth living. So... A long healthy, boring life with no entertainment and no introspection; or a short...

A scar on my scalp from where a kid threw a pipe at my head, and a scar on my elbow from a surgery to transpose an entrapped nerve. Other than that, I either had a boring childhood or I was just lucky!

I love my gf's parents. I'm a bit intimidated by the father, because he is an incredible surgeon in a very specific field. However, they're both wonderful. They started off thinking I was a bit "boring," wondering why she left her previous boyfriend, and being wary because we met online and...

Quite frankly, GF2 was awful. I can't tell you how Crackdown is, but GF2 is a game I would not spend more than $5 on. Maybe $10 if I was rich. GF2 was extremely easy (I didn't die once), had a much shallower feel than the original, etc. An odd aesthetic choice which could be a turn off to...

Halo 3 was your typical FPS... Certainly not bad, but not great either. I would not have bought that for $60. Now an expansion pack is asking the same amount as the original game? No thanks :P

Eventually that amazingly hot airhead you're dating is going to turn into an ugly old airhead. Then what? :P Long-term relationships really NEED intelligence and common ground.

I think the concept is interesting and potentially entertaining at the same time. Similar things have been done numerous times. MANY games now often have some sort of message they want to get across. Look at Assassin's Creed. You kill a guy and they have a long discussion with you. The...

LOL! I think it's time for some photoshop magic >.>

Let's see... What's wrong here. How did he manage to get the gunWhy was the gun loaded?Where were the parentsKids are impulsive and often don't think of the consequencesApparently the discharge was accidental, meaning the kid wasn't killed over a video game OR ANYTHING. He was killed because...

Awesome. I really enjoyed the first game, though I agree with the complaints. I felt that, in spite of how fun I found it to be, it was barely touching the surface of the potential the series had. The idea that they will actually listen to gamers and open up more possibilities seems wonderful...
