    Games You've Never Beaten

    Never beat the original Contra for NES or original Zelda. Modern day: Oblivion. Formatted and never bothered to go back and try. Also Fallout 3 and Far Cry 2. Got about halfway in each and got bored.

    Longest time spent playing a single game?

    Baldur's Gate 2. Sophomore year of college, for 3 days, I slept at most 6 hours and subsisted on granola bars in my room, bottled water from my mini-fridge, and any food that people brought me from the cafeteria. At night I kept my headphones on and my roommate was none too pleased with the...

    Poll: Halo: combat evolved

    I only played Combat Evolved. Yes it changed console FPS gaming but it didn't innovate much by PC standards. It started out great but once you started going backwards through levels and it was the same same same same same....boring. The ending left me interested in continuing the story of Master...

    Bargains Are for Cheaters

    Except that Gamestop can choose to order fewer new copies as trade-ins occur, while charging full / near-full price for used copies and pocket all the money.

    Is CoD 4 still thriving on the PC?

    Seems there is a higher number of people playing MW online than MW2, so I would say, yeah, the community is still pretty strong.

    What is an acceptable desktop for a man? (Or due to responses, what does a REAL man have?)

    I don't think anyone would think you were a homosexual for having a background with a bunch of Spartans from Halo as your desktop. They're not "Muscley Men", they're wearing huge suits of armor. Same goes for Space Marines. The fact that it's a Halo background, on the other hand.....

    most fucked up ending to something you've ever read or seen.

    Loved the ending (to the film - the book had a different ending if I recall). Wicked downer, wicked unexpected.

    That Game you can't Remember

    Messiah? You played as Bob the angel and possessed characters to move around the levels. I have a copy but I could never get past the first level.

    Your Fallback game

    KOTOR or Shadow of Chernobyl because of the awesome mods that are still being developed Baldur's Gate 2 Star Wars - Rebellion (I don't know anyone who's ever heard of it much less played it) edit: one more, going back further than Rebellion is Castles 2 a DOS game. Don't have a 3.5 drive...

    Songs that make you cry

    Adagio for Strings is depressing, especially in the context of Platoon and "the betrayal" Henryck Gorecki - Symphony #3 (3 parts) is soul crushing Alice in Chains - Black Gives Way to Blue is a downer Audioslave - I Am the Highway Civil Twilight - Human (moreso in the context of the episode...

    Games You'll Never Sell

    Baldur's Gate 2 (have 2 copies), Psychonauts (have retail and a steam copy), American McGee's Alice, Knights of the Old Republic. Could never get rid of those games.

    Poll: Porn. Have you ever been caught with it and how would you react if you caught your kids?

    Have I ever been caught. Ugh. Heard my step-mother telling some of her friends about some Playboys she found in my dresser (which I had 'borrowed' from my father's stash). Had a very awkward moment where, years later, I was showing my sister a small side table she was thinking about using...
