    Titanfall PC Requirements Outed By Vince Zampella

    I'm quite confident in my machine being able to handle it on ultra settings but we'll have to wait and see. I am pretty sure I'll be getting this game but I've been very hesitant so far with the pre-order.

    No Right Answer: Living with Depression

    I've been dealing with depression for most of my life now and I have good times and bad times, like most people. I'm glad they made this video though, it does help to see how others deal with it. Suicide has been on my mind a lot but I never made a serious attempt because I have people who rely...

    Poll: Jedi Elves

    Honestly, it really depends for me. I can enjoy both a tremendous amount but the more serious a story is, the more serious I'd want my action to be. There are exceptions here and there, of course. As long as it supports the medium appropriately I'm likely to enjoy it. Give me Pacific Rim with...

    Man Who Bought $735 Xbox One Photo Gets Free Xbox One

    Am I the only one who thinks the guy from the store kinda looks skeptical himself? I don't know why, but part of me is really entertained by the face he pulls next to the smug face of the guy receiving the Xbox.

    Do gamers have the balls to force a crash???

    Considering how I'm currently studying to eventually join this industry, I'd really rather try to avoid a big crash, as that might not be very beneficial to my job security. I think, as others have said, the best way to handle this is to avoid games with micro-transactions and all that...

    Historical periods that are barely ever explored in games

    I would personally love to see some games in the first World War. I know it wasn't the most dynamic front around, but it's still a period I am very interested in. I also think it might very well allow for a more mature story considering how brutal conditions were. Beyond that, part of me is...

    So I've finally gotten around to playing Tomb Raider...

    I recently got the game as well when it was on sale and I didn't expect to like it as much as I did. The wound, amongst soem other things, did bother me a lot as well though, so I totally get where you're coming from. A lot of games tend to ignore serious injuries for plot or gameplay though, so...

    Tap water , do you drink it?

    The tap water where I'm from is actually pretty darn good and tastes about as good as any store bought stuff I ever had so yes, I certainly do. Then again, I'm from the Netherlands and I don't think there are any places where the water is not good over here, the main difference between areas...

    I don't understand tipping culture...

    I never quite got that as well, especially considering how (supposedly) a lot of businesses already add a tip to the bill itself. Now it's very different in the Netherlands and tipping isn't really a forced thing in our culture. As far as I'm aware people mainly tip here if they felt the...

    Poll: Which do I do?

    I can understand how you'd feel the need to help your sister out, but as has been pointed out plenty before here, you've been planning this for a long time, surely she can understand that and ask someone else to help out.

    Game of Thrones Episode 9...

    I read the books and I was shocked back when I read it and seeing it on screen like that was no less shocking. I thought the episode was incredibly well done, the bards playing Rains of Castamere made it even more powerful. Sad as it may be, this is one of those things which makes the series...

    Poll: Totalbiscuit

    I watch just about every video he puts out and sure, he is most definitely arrogant at times and I don't always agree with him but as far as I can tell, he puts in a lot of effort and really cares about the stuff he puts out. I respect him for not being afraid to defend his opinions and views...

    Poll: Do you want an apology?

    I don't need any apologies from people who used to bully me, if I felt they went too far, I most likely kicked their ass in the past already. I may look scrawny, but I always was a lot stronger physically than I looked so I had a tendency to claim any apologies I needed by means of fist. But...

    Who is your famous crush?

    Rose Leslie, hands down. Although to be fair, Alyson Hannigan does come close. Maybe Zach Braff too... Or Jennifer Carpenter... Dodger... Kari Byron... Who am I kidding, I have dozens of crushes D:

    Then I took an arrow to the knee...

    Part of me was hoping this to be a discussion about how PC's rarely seem to get crippled in any way regardless of all the horrendous injuries they sustain due to our failure to dodge all the pointy stuff enemies throw at us. And yes, I am well aware there are games who do this and I applaud them...
