    The Other Culturally insensitive aspect of Far Cry 4's Box Art

    Far Cry 4's box art came under a lot of fire lately for racism. However I do not wish to discuss 'White Man subjugating Darker Man' as Ubisoft has cleared that up. My bigger concern is the way the villain has been depicted. A man sitting with a head in one hand, weapons in two other...

    Jimquisition: The FarCry Racism Adventure

    Yes...I feel Far Cry 4's box art invokes somewhat of a disturbing imagery. I am not talking about "white man subjugating a darker man". I feel that the villain being depicted with multiple arms is somewhat similar to multiple Hindu Gods. Considering the history of this game and Ubisoft's gross...

    Escape to the Movies: You Are Wrong About Spider-Man 3

    Jimquisition: An Industry Of Pitiful Cowards

    Game theory recently released an episode on how the "bro" games make more money. Most companies have been trying to make that money to please their stockholders. The most recent of the best Survival horror games...Amnesia made over 1-2 million$. On the other hand RE6 made over 5-6 million...

    The Big Picture: Scarlet Unity - What Assassin's Creed and Batman Have in Common

    I get your point...but it is important to note the definition of a'superhero' changes from person to person.

    The Big Picture: Scarlet Unity - What Assassin's Creed and Batman Have in Common

    For me the first superheroes are always going to be the characters from my old mythology books...........Scarlet Pimpernel sounds more like the first vigilante. Anyways, always figured Assassin's creed would reach France some day. Ever since Ubisoft made it an yearly, never ending franchise...

    Historical periods that are barely ever explored in games

    India...any period before 1757 AD(onset of British occupation). Good ones can be during the fights between the Mughal and the Maratha empires during the 16th and 17th centuries. It would be a good time cause you could explore the political, religious and cultural issues that fragmented the great...

    Beyond: Two Souls vs. The Stanley Parable

    Pretentious means trying to overstate the importance of something. It may or may not be an accident. B:TS overstates the importance of a purely narrative driven game and thus is pretentious. Meanwhile The Stanley Parable is a narrative game about the problems of narrative in games. Its aim is...

    Jimquisition: I'm Going To Murder Your Children

    Does it really matter what Hepler was or what shitty story she was responsible for? The point is she was threatened and games industry lost another key contributor.
