    Assassin's Creed III Dev Says Easy Mode Ruins Games

    I see a lot of comments about how insanely easy Assassin's Creed is (and it is. I haven't died since the first game, unless you count instant fail missions, in which case I die a small handful of times per game while going for the optional objectives) but no one addressing the issue of...

    First thoughts when you hear germany?

    That sort of German scientist stereotype pops into my head. You know, like the medic from TF2. Goofy accent, tiny glasses with circular lenses, strong jawline, usually pictured with book in hand, maybe in a Nazi uniform. And of course, Nazis themselves. It isn't that anyone thinks Germans are...

    I've never seen it.

    Out of this entire topic of films, I have seen Scarface, the first two Godfather movies, Pulp Fiction, Jurassic Park (only the first one) and District 9. I have seen maybe 3 or 4 dozen movies in my entire lifetime, and most of those were disney cartoons I watched when I was a small child...

    Poll: Do You Actually Read???

    I read the whole thing, but that doesn't mean I'll abide by the requests if I disagree with op/think he's a moron. If I don't I'll at least explain why I think he's wrong. I always skim the posts, but if there's 12 pages of everyone spouting the same two jackass opinions without actually...

    Something to think about

    All I can think is that it's the classic "why?" response. Why not? Or in this case the "Why not?" response. Why? I'm still leaning towards the theory that uncle has just been drinking again.

    Gaming while drunk

    If it's a social game and no one is relying on me, sure. That's the most fun way to play. I won't play drunk by myself or if my screwing up will affect a team I'm on or something.

    Poll: Online Achievements/Trophies

    They are all right as long as there is still an online community of some kind. If the online is dead, oh well. Don't get them then. It's so odd to me that achievements have gotten to the point that when there's noone online on an old game the first thought anyone will have is "Fuck! how am I...

    Where have all the games gone?

    They're still at the store. Seriously though, it's not the games fault that you don't like them. Just because you don't see anything you like doesn't mean there isn't anything good.

    why i dont like internet cafes

    Let me stop you at number one. If you have internet at home, internet cafes are not for you. If your friend has internet too, tell him he is a moron. If he doesn't tell him you do and he should just bring his computer over. If he doesn't have a computer, call him a filthy peasant and punch him...

    Which game do you think started Teabagging in shooters?

    And when you think early quicktime events, you think God of War. QTEs started way earlier than that. I'm sure the idea started way back in the earliest days multiplayer gaming, but the biggest and most douche-filled games made it more mainstream. a bunch of different people independently...

    Do I deserve to be spat on for saying this to a gay person?

    If the story happened exactly as you said, then your friend did absolutely nothing wrong. If you're exaggerating parts of the story to make it sound like you or your friend was the good guy... then I guess you need help? I don't know why anyone would go to a forum to tell people a false version...

    Poll: In what position do you sleep?

    I switch from yearner to freefaller and back throughout the night, but I have to have something to cuddle with to actually sleep. Pillow, dog, friend, laundry, pretty much anything will do.

    Yahtzee-Do you take him seriously?

    I take it into consideration, but it's kind of hard to follow his logic sometimes. Take, for instance, alpha protocol. He lists the good and bad points throughout the review and slowly builds the case that, while it is very unpolished and has plenty of problems, it is a fairly unique game and...

    Poll: Men need to find out that it's good to talk

    You're not trying to reinforce gender stereotypes, you're just curious why these stereotypes are all exactly true? Jeez, I really don't mean to be insulting, but if you respond with another wall-o-text like that I'm not even going to read it. There's really no reason for less than one...

    Halo: Reach Will Punish Quitters, Says Bungie

    Ok did NO ONE read the memo on the FIRST FUCKING PAGE detailing exactly what the quitban is? Go back. It's right there. 15-30 min ban from matchmaking for a handful of quits in a short period of time. Who cares? It's not even newsworthy. It's the sort of thing you might mention offhandedly...
