    This illogical MW2 hate has got to stop

    PC users expect a different experience in their games. Perhaps they have higher expectations. If a game doesn't meet those expectations, they dislike it. I fail to see where the problem is. Maybe PC users expect to be able to play on LAN, or expect to be able to host a dedicated server that...

    Has immersion ever made you do something extremely retarded??

    Everyone gets light gem syndrome from Thief. You find yourself constantly glancing down to see if anyone can see you. Also, in Team Fortress 2, I was trying to do a really curvy rocket jump and leaned right off my chair.

    Best value for money game ever?

    700 hours on Team Fortress 2, as part of the Orange Box. So we'll assume 20 bucks. 20/700 = 2.86 cents per hour

    People you believe should be looked upon more favorably by history.

    Yes, I've never seen any history where Saladin was vilified. Rather, he's usually a heroic figure fighting against the barbaric crusaders. This is another simplification, but never have I seen Saladin painted as a 'bad guy' and the Western armies held in a particularly flattering light. It's...

    Pricing of Games

    So what you're saying is that games should actually cost more? Since they last you longer and take more money to make, they should be worth much much more. Also, is there any real reason behind this complaint except that you don't want to pay as much? I'm sorry, but in this case, the only way...

    'Hardcore' games, 'Hardcore' consoles, and a think about the hardcore gamer

    Some people prefer to invest significant time into gaming, others don't. People who like to play games seriously are one audience, people who do it on the side are another. Some games are designed to appeal to one group, some are for the other. Neither is 'better' than the other. You obviously...

    TF2 players AT THE READY!

    Mm, no thanks. And I should tell you that in 5v5's, you're rarely going to be able to run a sniper for a full round and win.

    Mmm. Do you two have any good competitive experience?

    Poll: Are those without conscience evil or simply the next step in human evolution?

    Cooperation is an evolutionary trait of humans. Hurting other people to further your own ends is not conducive to your species well being. If everyone was like you, the world would fall apart. You're a psychopath. There is something broken in your mind.

    Poll: best game cutscene you've ever seen?

    My favorite is the intro movie for Starcraft Brood War. It has big spaceships, Russian opera, and zerg. Doesn't get much better than that.

    To the people who don't pirate: Is life really so bad?

    If you don't pay, why should you get the product? If you want the enjoyment derived from their property, which they spent money on, why should you get it for free. Pirating is stealing. You get their product, you give nothing back.

    I play a good spy and soldier.

    What game has the most anti-climactic or downright terrible ending? *SPOILERS!!!!!*

    Team Fortress 2. All I go was a little message saying that I'd won, and then it started over again. There was just no closure to all the complex storylines. I never even got revenge on my nemesis. On a more serious note, Assassin's Creed. I loved the game, but in the whole "killing half the...

    Worst World Leaders

    What political system, exactly, are you referring to? I believe what they intended was a representative democracy, or republic. The political system they were attempting to use was not Communism, because Communism is not one. The political system of the ideal communist state would be closest to...
