    Poll: Swearing

    Really don't care to be honest... If it's funny, it's funny.

    DELETED

    But that's the point in DRM, to merely stop day 0 piracy. Someone is always going to pirate a game, but the most damaging in terms of sales is when a game is immediately cracked on release or even pre-release. If DRM can delay the game being cracked by say, a week, then people who are desperate...

    I didn't like Half-life 2

    You're difficult to understand... Do you want someone to agree with you, or are you looking for an explanation as to why it's a good game? If you came in here just looking for someone to agree with you, there is no point in explaining why we enjoyed it because you're already of the mindset...

    The whole Hardcore vs Casual gamer thing

    This. The only reason people complain about it is because we are running low on games that don't hold your hand and tell you everything so you are guaranteed to get a big "Well Done!" message at the end of it regardless of how well you do. It's not a bad thing, as challenges still exist, but the...

    Poll: Was Final Fantasy VII even that good?

    This. I never played any FF games personally, but this thread has likely been done to death.

    Poll: Will you pay for an Elder Scrolls MMO?

    To be honest, I can't see then using Oblivion, Morrowind, Daggerfall etc. Chances are if they amde an MMO, it would be set in the Elder Scrolls universe. It would not be just Oblivion Online as alot of you are pointing it out to be. Those of you moaning about subscription fees, they are...

    The reason why Xbox live should never be free!

    It sounds like someone has never played on live before, or is feeling the need to defend their payment for some reason. I've not resubscribed or bothered with anything at all on my xbox for about 9 months, on account of the online community being so incredibly shit. If I wanted to deal with...

    World of Warcraft, why is it so popular?

    Please don't reply any more, this will turn into a 14 page flame war... Sometimes, people have fun playing games, oddly enough. Use search in future :)

    Things that the world's most controversial game would need to include in order to be controversial?

    Most of you people are just being disgusting rather than controversial. Create a game that makes people question their own morals and beliefs, or that directly exposes the "dark" side of religion/democracy and politics, and you have a controversial game. Oh, and while you're at it, get a...

    What got you into a genre of games?

    I had a NES when I was really little, though its the SNES that got me into games at a very young age. It's quite surreal, I never really thought of games like CoD and Burnout being the first games someone has played (To be honest I'd say they're missing out ;)), but I guess we all have to start...

    What got you into a genre of games?

    Definitely. Too many serious grimdark fps games at the moment, who the hell needs a good story when you have good characters, loads of weapons, tons of multiplayer maps and a map editor. It never took itself seriously, which is why I think it was such a fun game. If it were released on XBLA...

    What got you into a genre of games?

    Its incredibly rare to find people that enjoyed that game outside of the people I used to play it with. Its the only series I have ever played where I've laughed out loud at some of the humour. "Er... You go first" "Ok"

    Whats your least favorite "Tech Term"

    Lulz, scrub (I hate people using those two with a passion) And most of all, the emoticon "xD". Makes me die a little inside whenever I see someone spamming that... Others I'm fine with, but that one just makes me angry for some reason. idd stems from "I don't disagree", although it is...

    What got you into a genre of games?

    Strategy - AoE series, then CnC after that. Shooters - Doom was what got me into games in the first place (That and mario) HL 1 for singleplayer, Goldeneye and then Timesplitters is what really got me into multiplayer FPS games properly. RPG: Pokemon I think, when I was little, LttP on the...

    Best PC FPS's?

    Any battlefield game Crysis until the aliens come, you can stop there. CS/CS:S Half-life/2 (Also there are some fantastic singleplayer and multiplayer mods out there) Sourceforts is great fun if you get HL2 Deus Ex is ok, I didn't find it brilliant but a lot of people enjoy it System Shock...
