    How come Marvel treats its teen superheroes like crap in media

    I checked myself also and knew very little of them by name. I recognised a few more by appearance alone, but the roster is definitely D-list. However, I don't think this negates the initial point of the post. Seems the point of the book was to introduce the next generation of Avengers so why...

    Power levels of characters and their inherent unimportance

    I kinda like the conversations about fights and power levels despite agreeing that they are inherently unimportant. I feel like 2 fans in the know can depict a more "realistic" fight than writers come up with since they need to make the fights dramatic and victory is assured by the most...

    Poll: Day-One patches...is it justifiable?

    I'm going to be the one that argues the opposite side here...I'm afraid I don't agree with day 1 patches and I think accepting this kind of stuff is propagating the concept further. I get that in the past occasional issues slipped notice and sometimes this even caused entire games to be...

    Old Games you remember playing but can't remember the name of.

    I don't know if anyone will actually remember this or even have played it. It was a PC game where the aim was to make a music band, and the band members were all cartoon bears. I think this may have been an extra mini-game portion of another game but I can't remember what and it is driving me...

    Poll: Manliest anime character?

    That lack of Balgus is disturbing. The guy fights Guymelef himself carrying a sword 3 times his body length for crying out loud! You'll see the proof here at around the 4:55 mark:

    Superman and now Captain America. Why so much dislike for being "overpowered"?

    I wish people would stop for a minute to ensure they've actually added something of value in a post. I've essentially read the same reply 50 times by 50 different people and the topic has not been furthered any.

    Extra Punctuation: Battlefield 3 Is Scary

    Realistically if they gave the developers of The Binding Isaac creative control and funding, you'd find them making the same game over and over because, in all honesty, that's what makes money these days. I buy many games, but still there have been none that matched the queues and sell outs I...

    I'm a bit confused about Doctor Who (SPOILERS)

    It's his personal timeline. It is 2011 to the Doctor, regardless of what specific year he is currently visiting. Hence, why he couldn't "outrun" it, and travel to a different time.

    Games will never be accepted as an art form

    The same way movies have exploded over the past century, games will also. All the kids that grew up watching and loving movies, grew up and made them a generally accepted art form. It will be generally accepted because eventually the number of people who play and love games will grow to...

    FFVII wasn't that good

    Since when are FFVII's graphics not good? They were as good, or better than anything else out at the time. I'm not trying to be FFVII fanboy here...but when you say the graphics aren't good, what you really mean to say is that the overworld character models aren't good. And I can...

    Do you smile at strangers in the street?

    I would love to say I smiled at everyone on the street, but I usually only smile at a select few. It's difficult to tell really if I'll smile at someone or not; but generally I smile at someone if I feel that I'm appearing intimidating. Such as, if I'm wearing black or have a hood up. So...

    Zero Punctuation: Top 5 of 2010

    Seems like this whole "Top 5" was just an attempt to be different from all the other reviewers, and whilst I do generally agree that he is...looking back on his review of JuseCause2, I never got the impression that he actually enjoyed the game let alone enough to be GOTY. Also, I can't...

    Need some Writing help...

    You don't need to rip anything off when you read it to gain inspiration. There is a book called Legend by David Gemmell (possible spoilers ahead) about a fortress that is being defended against an army of 500k soldiers. As the book progresses, it is said that they have exhausted all...

    Need some Writing help...

    I come up with my best ideas walking home from work. There's a sense that my mind has been working overdrive all day and now I'm alone with my thoughts and I really start to shine. I also have a "goto friend"; someone who will happily tell me when my ideas are borderline retarded. With him I...

    Poll: Assassin's Creed III

    I think they've done all they need to do with the animus personally since they know the locations of all the temples and also due to the bleed effect, Desmond is now assassin extraordinaire. So, I'm hoping Assassin's Creed III is going to tie up Desmond's story, and involve doing some...
