    Zero Punctuation: XBLA Double Bill

    What an inspiring piece of vitriol. I shall start using the phrase "diminutive cunts" with much haste.

    Crazy Thoughts

    What would be the best way to kill everyone on this bus now without explosives? Actually, my main thought is a small crack squad of elite troops armed with painball guns, ruining everything. Usually adverts where a woman is shaking her hair. Imagine, she's shaking, looking all smug and happy...

    Which "cool" band do you detest the most?

    They are a bit. Not much though. Gosh, what an uptight pretentious bunch of wankers many of you are. Does it really upset you that someone mislabelled a genre or insulted someone's hair? Oh Rah, "Band" is Post Industrial Thrashcore, ACTUALLY. Balls. On topic, I loathe "Ting Tings". I...

    I bet he feels a bit of a tit now. Boom boom.

    Poll: Is StarCraft really the quintessential RTS?

    Well said. There are RTS's which are much more fun out there, which is what the majority of gamers will want. But from the purist, pedantic aspergersy perspective, it's probably the more 'pure' RTS, or at least high amongst 'em.

    Poll: Ganking, Sport? or Grief?

    Actually, what used to happen on WoW was the person getting kicked would call his big mates and within half an hour you'd find youself getting CC'd by a level 70 epic equipped gnome. A sort of Justice would emerge. What's even more awesome is when the people getting ganked fight back. I was...

    Does anyone feel a sense of morality when playing an RTS?

    It's nice that there's a future group of military generals who care. We should form our own government.

    Sniping

    Yes, thank you... I wasn't quite sure if I was being stupid and this was a natural thing for many gamers... I'm now frowning into my coffee.

    The end of the world

    The reason I like the idea of the world ending is because your aguments are, in the end, irrelevant. Personally, if you're really concerned, you can find a few websites with risk assessments on them. If you make the assumptions that A) The world has been around long enough for most things...

    Sniping

    I think in games where realism is more of a 'thing' then it's more important. You wouldn't be happy if your pistol did more damage than your rocket launcher. Well, you might, because you'd have a stupidly powerful pistol. But you might have a really weak rocket launcher instead and you'd be a...

    Does anyone feel a sense of morality when playing an RTS?

    Are there supposed to be people in the tanks? I thought the commander was the only human and the rest were all computer directed? If there were people in those tanks then I'm going to computer game hell. I like your justification for Death By Stupidity though. I'm a bit like that on some...

    The best turrets.

    If you've ever played EDF on the 360, the turrets on that are beautiful... If we're talking RTS turrets, then the UEF one in the Supreme Commander expansion is utterly stupid, but the Obelisk of Nod will also have a fond place in my memory. It never charged fast enough when you were Nod, but...

    The end of the world

    I'd rather scientists did it than ignorant lazy bastards in cars.

    Cliches in Video Games...

    Yeah, actually. I'd like a game where everyone isn't some shiny gift to the opposite sex. Howabout a game full of ugly people? Or people who look normal? IE: Ugly but with a lot of effort on their hair? Frank from Dead Rising would be a good example. More Franks!

    Why so much hate for Turn Based Games?

    Ahhh, my bad. Uh... Yeah! You illustrate my point perfeclty! I enjoy a good game of Age of Mythology and Civ, while after having a game of Halo with a mate. I cast pity upon those who cannot variate their choice of games (and indeed most things) because of their own preconceptions. I cast it...
