    Things you used to hate that you now love

    The 2DS. Back when it was first announced in a Gaming thread I looked at it with distrust and as an easy cashgrab. Got pretty wordy about it too. I own one now with a continuously growing library of puzzle games, and while it still has a gummy D-pad I've had good fun with it.

    Returning Members

    I've literally come out of my slumber to reply to this thread. Funny that. Definitely more diverse content that makes us stand out like the Escapist used to have, like webcomics, podcasts or heck, exclusive cartoons and video's that aren't immediately thrown onto Youtube so people have an...

    Nintendo NX Revealed As Nintendo Switch

    It seems like Nintendo is trying to merge handheld gaming and console gaming into one system, which might not be the best thing to do; handhelds are generally built with a compact button layout, while consoles have a wide sturdy controller base to hold on to with grouped buttons. The Switch...

    Characters Who Never Talk, Then Suddenly Do

    Oh yeah, that guy! Sorry, I kinda forgot about him. I didn't grow up with American television. Did I miss much?

    Characters Who Never Talk, Then Suddenly Do

    I'm surprised no-one mentioned him yet. Hilariously enough, this speaking version of Link predates the grunting/shouting Link from Ocarina of Time.

    Unusual references in unusual places!

    So I just discovered something pointless, but interesting; If anyone knows the webcomic Freefall, there's one point where a secretary robot commands a display to 'Enhance 57 to 19. Track 45 left' and to 'Enhance 15 to 23' (Doggy!). Now I regulary watch Discovery Science, and one of their...

    Wost Computer Disaster You've Ever Suffered

    The switch from XP to 7 didn't go very smoothly for my PC. Originally the XP version was never supposed to run on the custom type I had, which required a few workarounds by the people who built it for me at the shop. The period of time with XP went great, but when we wanted to upgrade to 7...

    Research Warns of Possible Game Industry Crash

    I think the warning bells shouldn't ring too quickly now, but we can always be weary. I do agree there is a chance that at least part of the industry will collapse under it's own weight. But if it does, the community is a hundred if not thousand times bigger than back in the day, not to...

    A question for PC Gamers. Why all the hostility towards console gamers/gaming?

    Speaking as a person who has about 60 games on Steam alone but also plenty of good ol' PS2 games, both have their perks. One is pick up and play(for most of them anyway), the other can do more than just play games but is more complex to operate. It's the whole 'who's got the best thing/who...

    No Sense of Strategy in Strategy Games

    I've noticed this with a few of my favorite RTS's as well, mainly Red Alert 1 and 2. I can however recommend an RTS that works around this issue by only giving you a squadron of units and no real base you have to build; End of Nations. It's in beta for now and it has a few balancing issues...

    Hilarious lies you will tell your children.

    I am so telling that to my future kids. OT: I'll probably not lie much to them, though I will tell them babies are brought by an ostrich smashing into the room when the nine months have passed. Just like I was told once >_> My parents are weird.
