    Poll: Which batman villain would you work for?

    Gotta go with Mr. Freeze. He seems a lot less likely to kill me than all the other guys, he doesn't seem to suffer from the evil-genius arrogance syndrome, and as ICEing on the cake, he has my style of humor.

    Legendary Pictures teases Mass Effect movie at Comic-Con

    I'm going to watch the movie expecting something bad, and hopefully, I'll walk out satisfied. My only worry is that they will try to cover too much in too little time and end up another Avatar: The Last Airbender.

    To Sonic fans:Your Favorite Sonic Game and Why

    I was a Sonic fan in middle school (even though I didn't own any of the major console games). I thought Knuckles was awesome and that Sonic Adventure 2: Battle was the best thing ever whenever I got to play it. I think the Sonic Advance games were probably the last good thing before the...

    Mass effect "hot" chicks

    Better than the hit by a brick, pompous, *****-balloon. She started being alright when she opened up, but her personality is not my first choice. Liked her more than Miranda though. I liked Tali better than Liara, but as far as the characters go, I think Liara is a better match for...

    Mass effect "hot" chicks

    Miranda is not hot. Jack is more attractive and she's bald. Tali is more attractive and you can't see her face. By Ashley Grahms do you mean Ashley Williams? She isn't that bad. Not hot by video game standards, but she isn't ugly either. So, no you are not alone on this.

    Angriest a game has gotten you

    It was WoW:TBC, and my friend and I were doing 2v2's Warrior/Shaman. It was a good set-up but hard to be good at. We got to 1820 rating once, and then started losing and went back down to 1750. I was so pissed. I was sick of getting so close to getting those Season 3 weapons then falling...

    I am not even sure how to react to this..

    Maybe OP, you should come clean and tell her about the wonder boy you met at the bar. OT: If this troubles you, talk to her about it. Maybe this is an issue far deeper than a misunderstanding of gender roles, and it has just come up to the surface in her doubting your sexuality. But...

    I hate being white....

    You're right, all humans must put the sins of their forefathers behind them. However, for a person in North America, many of the great injustices based on race lie with the whites and the scars are still there and showing. Current and past problems around the world do not change the fact that...

    I hate being white....

    Part of being white is accepting the sins of your forefathers and trying to put the past where it belongs; in the past. People are telling you to suck it up, and that is an insensitive way of looking at it, but it is essentially the truth. Other races suffer from prejudice, and we suffer from...

    Poll: GW2 or TOR?

    TOR for me. It looks like WoW in space with a fantastic BioWare story. In all honesty, I thought WoW became less fun after hitting level cap. Suddenly, the whole aspect of adventure, exploration, and getting into the lore was gone. It became an endless competitive quest for the best gear. ToR...

    How does one legally bind a wager?

    I know to you and me this wager is obviously one-sided in our favor. However that belief is on both sides for this wager. If someone has come to follow a great fallacy, it is not honest to take advantage of him. Ignorance is not grounds for punishment, but for education. He does not deserve to...

    How does one legally bind a wager?

    Okay, that's a lot more reasonable. I still think this is a dishonest way of getting money, but not nearly as bad as I first thought. Even so, $100 is still a healthy lump of cash. I still wouldn't expect anyone to seriously make that bet unless they really didn't care about their money. It's...

    How does one legally bind a wager?

    So wait a minute.... You're betting people their life savings that their won't be an apocalypse, and you're surprised that they won't pay up? No one in their right mind takes this wager with the intention of following through. If anything, it's just a friendly bet. Should the party on either...

    When is the last time you used your CD/DVD/whatever-ROM drive?

    About 2 days ago when I burned a CD to play in my car while I drive.
