No. Because the idea is insane. Would you arrest someone with Tourettes for breach of the peace when he hasn't said a word yet? Would you arrest a guy buying a six-pack for drunk and disorderly? Cause THEN Effect

In answer to the question - No. I think pride in something so simplistic is scary. I'd rather people worry about the state of their local schools (or their crime rate or whatever, something real) than the state of their neighbourhood's patriotic displays. Americans - you DO know that it's...

cheers for the responses guys! This is easily enough to keep me entertained. It seems like the Morrowind / Oblivion series has the most votes, I'll give that a go. I've heard a lot about Freelancer and space is definitely my kinda place. Stuff like FUEL looks cool but I'm not really into...

Hello Escapist! I was born in the wrong century. It's an eternal pisser to me that I've been born exactly between the two great exploration ages of our civilisation. Too late for the age of sail, too early for the age of rocket-ships. Anyway, enough waffling. I love exploration games. I...

Run from the mission hub to mission room #1. Run from chest high wall to chest high wall, order your squad to take cover - they jump over the scenery and run straight at the enemy. Restart. Run - chest high wall - cover - shoot - duck - shoot. Win. Return to hub. Make the black and white...

Loved - Death Note It's a tightly plotted, beautifully animated, mature piece that doesn't treat you like an idiot. I think the greatest thing about it is that it wouldn't have to be anime. It's a good, suspenseful story with well-written characters and tons of atmosphere that HAPPENS to be...

People that criticise games purely on graphics - are absolutely entitled to their opinion, long live human rights e.t.c. But it is shallow. They could try a bit harder but they obviously don't want to. Fair enough. It is annoying, when so many games are so good PAST the graphics. It can make...

Does anyone have any plotted out? I have several - varying amounts of stuff written on mechanics but at least 3 or 4 full concepts and stories. You want the hi-concept pitches? Heh... first one: Skies of Arcadia, but with dragons! A JRPG set in a world of flying ships and floating...

cheers :)

... your 'ideal' game? I had a bit of a search but looking for a topic about gaming on a gaming website is like looking for a piece of old, dry grass in a haystack. A topic where you post one or two paras describing your 'perfect' video game, story, mechanics... something that hasn't been...

Dude! You beat me, heh. Took me 3 days. The sequel is INSANE. P.S. Denna is a total dick.

LEO! LEO! LEO! Voting for this one purely because, in the enormous pile of noob poop and scammy microtransactions that is World Of Tanks, driving a Leo with 100% crew in a low tier match is the funniest god damn thing I've ever done in a video game. (FYI, non-Tanks-players, the Leopard...

Well it's about enjoying it, isn't it? Reading a good book that stops you staring off into space. (I would recommend reading something other than Warhammer Fantasy fiction, for a start.) Yeah, if it's a great book then I can't put it down. The very best ones I might read start to finish in...

No mate, you aren't dumb. You just aren't attacking it from the right angle. If you wade into Don Quixote expecting to be entertained you will be disappointed. It wasn't written to entertain you. I know it's a bit blunt, sorry. But that's how it is. Enjoying older books is different. It's...
