    Poll: What is/was your favourite "era" of WoW

    So I've heard a lot of people complain about the panda monks. Why? What about them doesn't fit with the rest of WoW? Anthropomorphic animals are everywhere in WoW. Why are people reacting differently to pandas than cows, or walruses? I don't get it. Are they somehow sillier? And if so...

    So I just cancelled my Pre-order for Mass Effect 3...

    What the hell is wrong with gamers who play Modern Warfare? In my opinion, it's people like you who are the problem, who look at a slice of the demographic, make broad derogatory assumptions about the wider playerbase, and demonize them for no good reason. You are simply a case of an elitist...

    BioWare Employee Busted in Dragon Age 2 Review Scandal - UPDATED

    To be fair, I haven't actually played it. I just don't like it when people don't like a work because of ancillary events that shouldn't impact their opinion of the product. But if you genuinely don't like the game on its own merits, I apologize.

    BioWare Employee Busted in Dragon Age 2 Review Scandal - UPDATED

    Except this sort of behaviour (while crap), doesn't mean the game is crap. The game is fine. This kind of stuff isn't. Make sure you are distributing your hate correctly.

    Poll: Americans as the bad guys

    The thing is, the games with American enemies that you listed aren't war games. A game depicting America as an enemy in a realistic depiction of a war, like CoD, MoH, and BC2, is a lot different than games that take place in the States, and are about Americans fighting Americans.

    Poll: Are Ponytails Cool?

    To be blunt, a ponytail on a guy is one of the grossest things to me. Oh god. So stringy and to me they just seem like a carryover from nineties childhoods... like black band t-shirts and wrestlemania posters. Nothing about them seems clean, and for some reason 95% of ponytailed guys are huge...

    Your Personal Best Videogame Opening of All Time?

    The song that plays during the OOT intro is my favourite melody of all time. It is like a sound beyond nostalgia, because it still retains the quality it had the first time I heard it.

    Spindash Into Our Sega Quiz!

    Of course my phone rings in the middle and ruins everything. Damn, I grew up a Sega kid, I could have rocked this one.

    The Big Picture: Fair Game

    That's not his point though. His point isn't that, when comparing something, not to compare it to it's obvious alternative like Gears and Killzone. He's saying that declaring your love of Killzone, without comparing it to Gears, does not mean you're being unfair or biased. So if you are...

    How do you feel about anime?

    Not to be offensive but I really don't like it. The ridiculously poor scripts and horrific voice acting, coupled with the insane cut-and-paste animations and facial expressions might be okay in one series, but in every anime, I can't believe that this is still okay. For instance (and doing my...

    Top 5 Buggiest Releases

    I had the pleasure of getting LOTR The Fellowship of the Ring on the GBA. Every time I entered Tom Bombadil's house it froze. To this day I have not managed to find a way to get past it. I'm just thankful I've never had a bug affect me in a game I actually had the time to get invested in.

    How did you come up with your username?

    I was terrifying a friend way back in high school on MSN, but I was on an account I had made solely to harass him. I called myself Smorlock, a wizard who was going to come to his house, and drown him in chocolate. Yeah.

    Ever had a crush on a fictional character?

    There have been numerous, I'm sure, but I will mention the first fictional crush I ever had. Android 18, from Dragonball Z.
