"I can fight as long as I survive" Which, depending on how many times I hear it is greeted with ether laughter or me exclaiming "No shit? I can breath as long as I have lungs!"

This is all very minor to how some older games punished exploration. For example lets look at King's Quest V for the pc. On both the desert and sea exploration maps, going to the wrong screen, going out of bounds, or going too long without drinking water would cause a game over. This "go the...

A life without love is terrible. Love is like oxygen! Love is a many splendored thing! Love lifts us up were we belong! All you need is love! On a personal note, you'll know when you find love as I have. His warming smile is contagious and his warm embrace is all the comfort I...

I didn't buy anything in that store during any part of that game, I stole everything. I like Final Fantasy series less then Dragon Quest series; In fact, I enjoy "jrpgs" and don't refer to them by that label. After all, I started playing them before people called them that. I enjoy...

I would first like to start with "Why the fuck am I discussing this?" Anyhow... There are a few medical benefits of male circumcision. The first is cleanliness. With less skin, there are fewer "nooks and crannys" for filth to hide in. Secondly, it prevents a common problem later in life...

In the process of fighting a never ending battle against "cultural obscenity", Jack Thompson has been tumbling towards rock bottom. A quick visit to his Wikipedia page in addition to this news begs the question, where the fuck is rock bottom for this guy?

The planet destroying death ray that only accepts commands in the form of a question that also must be spoken in a Spanish polyalphabetic substitution cipher. Sure you could get the language down eventually, but most people would be so annoyed at that point they'd give up on using the weapon...

I love steam-punk. It has produced great comics like girl genius and wonderful games like Mission: Red Planet (Steam Punk in space!). http://hillep.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/tegelased.jpg

Old Man and the Sea So very, very dull. The only way I could get through it was telling myself to keep reading and something interesting is bound to happen. I was so horribly wrong that it was tragic.

That would be it right there. It may not look like much, but the fact that 80% of the battle is luck made it one hell of a fight. On top of that, the whole having to do a side quest that stretched the entirety of the game use so I could physically attack it made it even worse.

From what I've gathered in the past few weeks of watching the Forum threads on the side, people have greatly varying opinions which type of game story telling is better then the next. However, there are other mediums of gaming story telling that do not get as much attention, the Table Top RPG...

Well, I often find that Neverwinter Nights and Neverwinter Nights 2 are great games. Though the main stories of the second game are a bit "meh", the community mods are the biggest reason I'm drawn to them.

Yes it would be, that's probably why they didn't learn their lesson.
