Gotta disagree with you there, buddy-- David Tennant was a great Doctor, but I'm having a LOT more fun with Matt Smith, who evokes memories of William Hartnell and Sylvester McCoy in his performance. While Tennant can do "sad" and "quasi-suicidal" brilliantly (hence why I think the scripts took...

LOL, Hi-- this is the Red Mage from the group . . . and a LOT of people thought we were doing 8-bit theater but . . . no. We were actually going for FF1 there and legitimately couldn't get a Black Belt. We kept cracking up because Molly (our Black Mage) had NO idea why she was so popular...

Man, a little harsh on GS managers, aren't we? Managers don't game, eh? I AM one, and I've been gaming since 1988! While it's true that out of the 4000+ managers in the company not EVERY one is a solid gamer, I don't think it's quite fair to label us ALL as apathetic nongamers-- hell, I...

"'The Escapist' is a free site on the internet . . . and I'm voluntarily paying for it." This thought occurred to me as I clicked the final payment button, securing my membership in the Escapist Publisher's club for a full year. Up until that point I really hadn't considered what I was doing--...

YES, "Today I Die." That game WAS art. No question. Which ending you get also tells you about yourself-- essentially what art is SUPPOSED to do. And I can't really have any respect for Ebert here-- I very rarely agree with his movie reviews and criteria for excellence.

I personally find that to live only for oneself is completely lacking in maturity. I also find that to believe myself or any other human being to be the highest form of life in the universe is absolute foolishness. Use your imagination for a moment-- we're all gaming geeks here, I believe, so...

Seconded-- as a Gamestop manager myself, I'd like to be able to wipe the smug smile off the face of some of my more "Oh, I just happened to get this BRAND NEW GAME and decided I wanted CASH FOR IT TODAY" people. As for how much GS gives-- WTF, people? Are you dense? CLEARLY, you're not the...

One I always found particularly chilling: In "Shadow of the Colossus," Take Wander over to that HUGE ravine near the starting temple. Agro won't take the jump, and, it seems at first, Wander won't either. But, if you persist, he eventually jumps into the ravine, falls for quite some time, then...

NO!!! TASHA!!!! D:

Best D&D adventure? Why, the infamous Pit Trap, of course!! We were playing a game of D&D with the Oriental adventures module and had a few NPCs in the party (this is KEY). We had a Samurai (think warrior), Kensai (think ranger), a wujin (think sorcerer), a monk (think thief/acrobat), and...

Tim Schaefer could shit in a box and send it out and I would pay money for it. This game will ROCK . . . literally. ^_^ Now if only more people had played Psychonauts . . .

I'd lock my apartment, get in my car and start driving west. I'd stop at every stupid little roadside amusement and buy way too much junk food to munch on the way, singing along to every song on my mp3 player. I'd break out the cell phone and call everyone on the list, even the entries which I...
