    I'm a straight male gamer, convince me diversity in games is a good thing

    But that's the trick TC. For the first time in countless years, it's not about you. And that's why it's a good thing.

    Telltale's promise of meaningful choices in The Walking Dead (Spoilers)

    "Meaningful" is a relative term. What's meaningful to some might not be to others. However, what ultimately makes a choice meaningful to a person is how much they're willing to invest themselves into their decisions. The player who owns the decisions and consequences he makes as Commander...

    The Most Dangerous Woman in Videogames - Anita Sarkeesian

    *Reads various comments about Anita's tendency to use her publicity to further her credentials and her cause, and cannot help but think back to a quote from the movie "Lincoln."* "Thaddeus Stevens: I'm sorry you're nauseous, Asa, that must be unpleasant. I want the amendment to pass. So that...

    GTAV's Characters Are Just Bad

    " I've heard a lot of other people make the case that Trevor is intended to be a representation of the behaviour an average player shows when set loose in a sandbox game. A depiction that makes sense when he's being portrayed more as a sort of amoral free-spirited rogue, but not in the moments...

    Is it ok to kill spiders?

    The house spiders in my home seem to keep the fly population at bay. Might be doing something to curtail the roaches and other less desirable pests too for all I know. They apparently want nothing to do with me. I've never woken up with a spider crawling on my face or anything like that, and...

    Science is based on faith?

    The faith in science, as EC pointed out, stems from the belief that patterns exist in nature, that we are capable of perceiving patterns in nature and that we are capable of perceiving the real world (as opposed to a world that complies with our personal biases, such as a dream, or a world...

    Greetings community, As many of you regular League of Legends players may already know, there's not much appreciation for the support role.

    Poll: Favourite Clan in Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines

    Gotta go with Malks. I enjoyed playing Malks in the OWoD table top and I did the best I could to incorporate their madness in gloomy or terrifying ways, rather than just being chaotic and random. Their discipline set is quite nice, both in Bloodlines and in the table top. A well used level...

    Fallout: The Old Days

    The games have different emphasis and focus. The original Fallout games put more attention into storytelling, dialogue, humor, and writing than Fallout 3, resulting in a game that was clever and engaging. The new Fallout emphasized exploration and discovery more, rewarding players who wandered...

    Disappointed with Fallout 3's Ending? Read Here! (Warning - SPOILERS)

    You should probably add about RL-3 as an extra follower, as he is a robot and thus completely immune to radiation and thus could activate Project Purity just as well as a ghoul could. Ah, very true. I had forgotten about him as a party member. I suppose I could incorporate it into Rule #6...

    What is a Hardcore Gamer?

    After all, if I had played Mario Kart for N64 for 20 years, 2 hours a day, and still couldn't beat the Princess, it wouldn't really matter that I had played it for a long time, the only thing people would notice is that I never got better :P Indeed. You would only be hardcore if you were...
