Hi there everyone, it's been a very long time since I've posted on this forum, so hello again. I know, on the surface, that this topic is going to seem a little ridiculous, but I've found the longer I play video games, the more it's taught me about decent ways to live my life, or to respond to...

Never underestimate the buying power of a true idiot.

Honestly in my opinion, I still don't understand why this game became as popular as it did, and I don't think Nyugen did either. To me, this game is clunky, and doesn't bring anything at all new to the video gaming spectrum as a whole. I've played Jetpack Joyride, I don't need to play any more...

Honestly, to me as a gay man, it's as if someone came to me and called me a "sexist" for not wanting to date women. I'll be honest, I'm not aroused by people with darker skin. It's not because I don't like people with dark skin, I actually prefer their company more than people with my own white...

NO! BAD EA!!! You stay away from the indie field. It has so much promise and we don't need you tainting it with your money grubbing ways.

Very well written indeed, this article really does give an inside glimpse to many people what the reality is like for people who have actually been raped. I, unfortunately, cannot say that I have never used the word out of context online in the entirety of my gaming career. However, in my...

Personally, I have rather enjoyed all of the companions thus far because they all seemed to bring something new to the table. Though I have liked some companions more than others. For example: I feel rose is my least favorite. Her appearance was so-so but that's the least of the issues. i...

Ohhhh hey they're re-releasing Halo three, how cool is that? :| Oh what's that? Ooooooh they're telling of how Master Chief became teh Samus from Metroid... how original... oh but they have lasers that... disintegrate... just like... their other games.... and... metroid... oh but they have a...

Alright, I'll post. (many of my friends have opinions such as this): Bella Bartok is such an amazing composer! His works absolutely inspire me and I want nothing more to play his works day and night. no. Screw you. Bartok was a pig-headed, full-of-himself composer that just wrote dots on a...

I'll look into it. I have both an older Acer laptop and a Pentium 4 and neither of them really have the processing power required to play full minecraft (unfortunately I've already maxed them all out and everything) I appreciate the suggestion! What kind of netbooks would you suggest? Which one...

Could I come up with a way that I could buy both a netbook and a desktop for a comparable price to if I were to just get a laptop?

So, I'm looking for a new laptop and I was wondering, since I'm a bit out of my league when looking for said laptops, what the Escapist would suggest. When it comes to what I want, I'm not particularly picky. Basically, I'm a console gamer, but have fallen in love with minecraft. I would...

Honestly, this is a little sad. I'm sure for everyone, Sessler really was a face for video-game's becoming mainstream and maybe without him, x-play and some of the work G4 USED to do we would not be in the position we are today. It truly is the end of an era. While I, personally had lost...

Getting hit by an electric Jellyfish in Lord Jabu-Jabu's belly... huh...

Basically the topic of the thread is exactly what you just read. I have become and avid fan of electronic/ambient music lately and a lot of these artists do not get the recognition they deserve in my opinion. So, basically, feel free to share! My example composer today is Helios...
