    Games from the old days you'd want to see remade/updated.

    If all you want is the original game but with a wrapper to play it on modern computers without needing Dosbox or something akin to that, just download a Doom Engine Source Port like ZDoom [http://zdoom.org/Download] or something, copy the .wad files from Hexen or Heretic into the same directory...

    Critics That You Simply Can't Listen to Anymore

    Total Biscuit/The Cynical Brit/John Bain and The Gaming Brit/Charlie Cade are two totally different people. One is a massive icon in the realm of PC gaming videos on Youtube, the other made a few excellent videos about Metroid: Other M and... nothing else worth watching, really. OT: I kinda...

    Did Steam explode for anyone else?

    Yup, it seems to have exploded that's for sure. Granted, for some reason the Steam Client is working perfectly fine for me and I haven't lost connection to my friends or anything. I cannot access the store, however, and the friends' activity page is blank.

    If you were an evil overlord, who or what would you use for henchmen?

    A massive hivemind horde of killer gerbils. They look cute and fluffy and adorable, and they're rather small too. Thus, no one would expect that the last thing they would ever hear before their doom is the pitter-patter of thousands of tiny paws.

    Naughty Dog Co-Founder: Nintendo ?Irrelevant as a Hardware Manufacturer?

    Because, of course, this man is a guru of video gaming and everything he says should be written down and treated as scripture. I mean, his almighty company known as "THQ" is the greatest video game company ever and is beloved by everyone and is still going strong even today. ... oh wait.

    "Stop trying to make it a thing!"

    Unlike some folks on this forum, I agree with you completely. The concept of the "Friendzone" is nothing more than a disgusting attempt to vilify someone who won't bang you (as in the general "you") or won't get into a relationship with you as if it's their fault and no one else's. There's...

    Most Bizarre Errors You Constantly See

    Allow me to explain: Or, to explain in words: a Clip is an item that is designed to store a set of rounds together for insertion into a weapon or into a magazine. A Magazine is a device which not only is designed to store a set of rounds together but is also designed to feed the rounds...

    Blockbuster Closes Its Doors

    Huh, well this is a rather unfortunate twist of events. I mean, it was inevitable, but there's a Blockbuster right next to where I work that currently is looking for a new manager and has signs everywhere saying they're hiring and such. ... too bad whomever they end up choosing will be out of...

    Complain about a professional

    This. Just this. So you can play some silly game extremely well. Good for you, but what about your profession justifies your paycheck when you honestly don't contribute very much to society at all? And why is it you get paid millions and millions of dollars when the kinds of folks who...

    5 Game Genres in Need of some CPR! STAT!

    Just to play devil's advocate (and since I enjoy a lot of "serious" racers too, so I don't always understand this statement): Why can't serious racers be fun? You mock games like GT and Forza and Dirt and anything remotely realistic and act like they can't be fun, but why not? I find a lot of...

    Poll: Is it snowing yet?

    North Dakota here. It's snowed a little bit over the past few days, nowhere near enough to accumulate and coat the ground in white (plus the ground is still too warm for that anyways), but it's already happened. Winter is coming, and I'm definitely ready for it. Plus the temperatures have...

    Sonic falls again

    Welcome to the world of the "three/thirty-point rating system". Where the only scores that matter are 70+ ones... except 70-80 is now becoming mediocre too. So nowadays it's apparently only the "two/twenty-point rating system". And this totally is acceptable because, hey, apparently that's how...
