Use a gun. If that doesn't work, use more gun.

A quick question for any fellow Escapists that have experience working as extras or on film sets in general I suppose. Apparently, Clash of the Titans 2 is being shot in the town where I live and there is a call going out for extras. Naturally, I was thinking about trying my luck in getting...

I know a guy who is medically and legally considered blind, and yet is undefeated at Mario Kart. He has to have the bottom left corner of the TV and sit so his face is touching the screen so that he can see, but this doesn't deter him from winning. Always. Constantly. Its rare, but blind/deaf...

Why is this even a question? Yes. Yes you should.

Telvanni all up in this *****. A house of xenophobic wizards of varying reclusiveness, morality and sanity all hanging out in giant mushroom towers? That's the kind of faction more games need.

[Wall of text] Failed? At 300,000 Subscribers paying £15 a month? That's £450,0000 a month. £540,000,00 a year. Not counting the original sales of the game or any micro transactions it might have. Warhammer Online has definately not failed. Just because an MMO doesn't beat Wow doesn't mean...

Lord Vader. That way, whenever it needs feeding you have a legitimate reason to say, "Lord Vader requires your presence."

First Danny Wallace in Assassin's Creed, now Stephen Merchant in Portal. How long before we found out the voice of Gordon Freeman is actually Al Murray? In all honesty though, It is nice to hear British comeedians in video games. Makes a nice change from the English always seeming posh or evil.

A thread made up entirely of references? Incontheivable!

The Ugly.
