Alright! Video games can successfully get horses to act like horses. Now if they could only get people to act like people we'd be getting somewhere....

My name is a (mild)swear word in French, which is annoying because I live in a French speaking area. Francophones a lot of times will looked shocked when I introduce myself so I have to be very careful to pronounce it with an exaggerated English accent. My last name is a lot of fun because...

The Deku Butler crying over his petrified son in Majora's Mask. Understated and poignant.

Seriously, how dare you decide that that cow over there has more of a right to live that this spinach!!! ^_^

Has any body read that Cracked.com article where they explain very nicely how humans are designed to WIN rather than find truth in an argument? Here, read it it's very eye opening: http://www.cracked.com/article_19468_5-logical-fallacies-that-make-you-wrong-more-than-you-think.html The...

This made my cry as a child. However I appreciate how Arthur is in Marvel vs. Capcom 3 so I can whoop his ass for a change.

Yeah, that about sums it up. The biggest problem with American/Muslim relations seems to be a general lack of education and knowledge (as well as the promotion of nationalistic propaganda). If the media in the Arab world gets a hold of this things could get blown wayyyyy out of hand.

It's ridiculous to judge a person from their grammar. English might not be their mother tongue. It's usually much harder to write in a language than talk in it or read it. I also know plenty of educated people that can't spell if their life depended on it. I am one of those :) On another...

I disagree. The old Tomb Raider games are like square wheels on broken axles compared to the new ones or Uncharted/Assassin's Creed and I call that as "didn't age well".

Very cool. Loved the "thank you" from the turret. But then I dropped if off a cliff.... Also on the subject of the Greeks, Wheatley has a great line in Ch. 9 about intellectual foes: "Holmes vs. Moriarty....Aristotle vs. BASHY SPIKE PLATE"

Best: 1) Ocarina of Time/Majora's Mask 2) Ico 3) Mario 3 Worst: If I don't like it, I don't play it. Point finale.

I find that the characters that are most likable are the characters that are most human. The aforementioned Nathan Drake, Ezio/Desmond, Jade . . . hell even Master Chief shows his human side interacting with Cortana. As far as main playable characters go, a good mix of relatability/humanity...

How about a hug? I'd give you one if I could. *Edit* Don't mean that to be creepy. Sorry if it came out that way!

Snape. He's one of the most complex characters in recent literature. And Luna, she's sooo squishable!!

I hate being off on weekends, everything's so crowded! I like Thursday and Friday off. Wednesdays are usually ladies night and Thursdays usually have a good happy hour.....
