    Dead Space...is it just me?

    Well Isaac isn't an elite space marine or anything, he's an engineer in a heavy suit, using clunky mining tools as makeshift weapons, the controls should feel a bit heavy and slow. I played it on ps3 and never had any issue with the controls or anything, although a friend of mine who played it...

    what music genre do you hate the most and why?

    Wow, so many people here just don't get rap music at all. In all honesty I can understand that, but there are so many rap songs that are just so awesome. I love the beats and rhythm of rap music and some (although admittedly not most of the mainstream guys) have really great and deep lyrics. The...

    Girl Magnets

    1. Be happy, girl's and people in general like to be around people who are happy. 2. Buy proactive. 3. Go to the gym. Seriously, going to the gym will help you 10000000000x in getting girls, and not just in a superficial way, it makes you happy and healthy and gives you self confidence and...

    Rage Cuts Single-Player When You Buy It Used

    Why is everyone getting so angry? Why are you all so against buying games new? Either way its not like they're ripping out the entire second half of the game. People are proclaiming that they're not going to buy the game now at all because some small extra content is locked for second hand...

    Meat eaters should have to kill for their food.

    Meat is good, and its good for you, theres a reason why so many animals eat it. And thats another point, why dont you stop all the lions and tigers around the world from hunting and eating, they can kill animals to eat and survive, so why can't we? If anything its more acceptable for us as we...

    God damn, Escapist. I fucked up. I fucked up real bad.

    In times like this I always like to recite the old line from Braid. "If we've learned from a mistake and become better for it, shouldn't we be rewarded for the learning, rather than punished for the mistake?" Of course you'd have to prove that you actually learned from your mistake and...

    My experience as a (wannabe) game developer

    Haha, yeah about half way through making the game I had thought of a bunch of extra ideas that I wanted to implement, but every time I sat down to start them I always got distracted by something! The thing once you actually do get started things start to flow a lot better and you stop...

    My experience as a (wannabe) game developer

    Hmmm, I don't think its as cut and dry as that. I mean I can't think of any story that would be applicable to my game and would also be worthwhile to implement. Writing a compelling story is very difficult, big budget games have teams of writers and they still churn out garbage game plots, an...

    My experience as a (wannabe) game developer

    As a gamer one of the things that?s most interested me is, well, making games! So, in the last couple months, that?s exactly what I did :) After releasing my game I found the experience really interesting and I wanted to share my experience developing a game from scratch with a bunch of people...

    Should the appstore be more regulated??

    After recently releasing my iPhone game "Quantum Cannon" http://itunes.apple.com/app/quantum-cannon/id427407981?mt=8 (#shameless plug), and watching it struggle while being buried alive by the thousands of other apps bombarding the store in just a matter of days, it really raised the question...

    Poll: Is Darwin's Law failing us??

    "why are the stupid still here?", well that depends on many things. For starters what would you specifically define as "stupid"? And why do you feel that they shouldn't be here? We are all here because of millions of years of evolution taking place at the genetic level. Why would your degree of...
