    Poll: Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster:

    I'm getting it on the ps3 because I don't like mobile gaming that much. I wish I could just buy FFX and not X2 but other than that, this looks amazing. I really like everything about FFX. Yes, even that.

    Good Old Reviews: Sid Meier's Covert Action

    Now that is a true shame. Covert Action's manual was amazing. It was huge, and it had lots of pieces of story and in-character insight that really made the game better.

    Good Old Reviews: Sid Meier's Covert Action

    If the bad guys are disappearing it's because they ducked below a piece of furniture. When they do that, it's time to either toss a grenade, leap over the thing they're behind (that takes the arrow keys though), or step out of the room. If you're missing, it's because you didn't wait for the...

    What are the bestest best PS2 games?

    If you like the oldschool menu driven stand-in-a-line and eskimo box JRPGs then the PS2 has some o' the best. Final Fantasy X is one of my favorites. Yes it does have that one cringe-worthy forced laughing scene but other than that it's a great game with an amazing battle system that lets...

    A question to those who have at some point been punched in the face.

    Hey oniaPL, thanks for making me not the only guy here who kind of likes it. There's a flash of light, followed by a numb coolness. The stinging doesn't hit until minutes later, and the soreness HOURS later. Man it's been years. I really should find somebody to get into a nice consensual...

    Should you feel guilty for eating meat?

    Plants are alive too. Nuts, berries, grains, and beans would be right out since that's eating babies. Also eating root vegetables since you have to destroy the entire plant to get them. To avoid killing entirely you would have to eat only fruit (which can be eaten without killing the tree)...

    Question for people Pro-guns....

    How's your not-gun crime? I'd rather be shot than beaten to death with a cricket bat. Personally, I don't care much either way about gun legislation. On the one hand, people who want to hurt each other will always always ALWAYS find a way, so taking away one tool is pointless. No gun on...

    Have you ever played through a game and completely missed a game play feature?

    I was a pretty good distance into the "stop messing around and get ready for the final boss" bit of Final Fantasy 8 when I finally figured out how to trigger limit breaks. Apparently you have to let your characters sit at like 20% health and not heal them which is a thing I basically never did.

    I'm not talking about Mass Effect, I'm talking about talking about Mass Effect.

    I tried like 7 times before I figured out what was making it do that. Something about the phrase "until Mass Effect Reach or Mass Effect ODST" makes it flip out. Further experimentation needed.

    facebook comments

    Sometimes The Escapist removes my facebook-based comments under articles and videos for some reason. I tried to post this: "Guess we'll have to wait until Mass Effect Reach or Mass Effect ODST for my player-Hannar-Elcor love triangle." and it deleted it, but once I "censored" it to...

    File-sharing Remains Legal In Switzerland

    What's the matter? Don't like the truth? Switzerland has scientifically disproved the theory that piracy is destroying the entertainment industry. I'm not siding with the pirates either. I'm siding with the legit users who don't like draconian DRM. I'm siding with citizens who would rather not...

    Games that you would instantly buy
