    Things in gaming you have never been able to forgive.

    The closest you are going to get is a realistic server on Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45. Pity none still run, but the vanilla game also is probably the closest. Still not true to real life but much closer than anything else. Other than that (and the subject of my Final essay at uni) "The...

    Dungeons & Dragons Lures Back Old Players

    I DM a 3.5 game every second week at my university and I have been looking for things like this, side missions with new characters and settings that i can choose to play when there is a lull in my campaign. After playing for many hours (30+) sometimes it is fun to just throw a new game at my...

    Worst Surprise Instant Death!

    Worst instant death(s) ever? S1: Tomb of Horrors. Now this is not a video game but it still counts. The party walks into the entrance chamber, all we can see is two statues with a chest between them. The rogue and arcane trickster search the chest finding the false floor, pry it open and...

    Teaching Morality to an AI

    Id hate to point out a flaw in your arguement, the passages " " what you have stated there is nothing to do with Utilitarianism, Utilitarianism (as put foward by many people, most noatably Peter Singer) is the idea that we dont maximise the good but we minimise the pain/hurt/the bad. this is...

    Indoctrination into PC Gaming

    you have to sit back and enjoy Frontier: Elite II: your computer probably wont run it if you have top of the range stuff, it was made in 1993 and will probably burn out your cards, run it off DOSBOX if you can RED ORCHESTRA:COMBINED ARMS/RED ORCHESTRA:OSTFRONT while the MOD version of this...

    If you could go back in time and stop a game from being made, which one would it be?

    Perfect Dark Zero. Such a dissapointment after the original. Perfect Dark was a fantastic game. expecially the muliplayer was so fantastic, what other game can you gin an entire map with remote mines and then seal yourself in a small room and watch the map explode. but really i was soo...

    Best game that didn't get a sequel

    Conkers bad fur day. but if i ever saw a anyone trying to make a new one i think i would die. they just wouldnt be able to match its hilariousness. (Live and reloaded doesn't count because it was the same game just rereleased with a crapper multiplayer) i would love a sequel to The Warriors...

    What happened with the Rainbow Six franchise?

    now i have not played RS:LV or the sequel but i have played all the others and i do believe that the whole planning the missions bit was fantastic, even if it did become a bit tedious playing the same mission over and over again it did have one thing that only comes from drawn out games...

    realistic games. to much to ask for?

    Red orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 now there is a game in which you need three people well used to the controls to operate a tank, close to one shot kills, inability to run over long distances, guns flying out of your hands, guns overheating if use too much. no HUD, no crosshairs, shellshock...
