    Mass Effect 3 multiplayer names

    For those of you who play Mass Effect 3's multiplayer mode, what do you call your characters? It is mandatory (for some reason), so you have to have came up with something. Personally, I give my characters the most boring possible names. Just makes me happy imagining a volus called Leonard...

    911 Overseas

    That does seem about the best option. Better than scrambling to Google looking for an email address or something. An unlikely scenario, granted, but I'd still like to be prepared.

    911 Overseas

    Let me preface by clarifying nothing's happened, no rush. I live in the U.K., and if I was talking to someone in another country (e.g., U.S.) over webcam, and they collapsed... what the hell should I do? Apparently dialing 911 won't work (I don't feel like trying), and Google's no help. Even...

    Is... is it over?

    That's what she said. Also, I had quite a bit of faith in the Escapist crowd, it's the only consistently reasonable community I've seen on the internet, I thought others would think likewise and at least permit me benefit of the doubt.

    Is... is it over?

    Nope- it alienates adopted people. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUQYrdgIJuI&feature=player_embedded *EDIT* Sorry, that's not Fox, that's just my (hopefully understandable) prejudice. It was actually WBTV. Sorry about that.

    Is... is it over?

    I will say, I'm quite honoured- seems I'm a better actor than I thought. :D

    Is... is it over?

    I appreciate that at least some people who aren't interested in games don't see them as devil machinations, but as long as at least 1 person does (and I'm sure they'll never completely go away), then it's still too many for my liking. I just hope the current number will go down. Maybe it's...

    Is... is it over?

    I know, I was trying to write it from the perspective of Fox and the like. They seem to think games are exclusively designed to be children's toys, sorry if I didn't make that clear. Also the 'investigating naked dead body' sections seem like perfect ammo for controversy, maybe I took the...

    Is... is it over?

    Looking over the past few months of game releases, I've noticed a distinct lack of controversy where I've been conditioned to think it's due; L.A. Noire (a children's video game from the makers of Grand Theft Auto where you play an *L.A. Noire spoilers*adulterer/murderer who fondles naked...

    So whatcha look like Escapists?

    Here's my face. Bit longer hair these days though.

    Men ejecting girls

    Yeah, I see it's really for my own good, and I'm glad to have the backup, but it'd be nice if there was the same rule for women, so people like me couldn't whine about sexism in the workplace. Oh, I make no intention of fighting it, I value my job.

    Men ejecting girls

    Aright, I work for a security company (not going to say which one, for fear of getting fired), and I was going over some rules when one struck a chord with me- I have the power to eject people from the premise, as long as a colleague/superior agrees that they need ejecting. Now, I'm not...

    Portal 2 co-op match-up

    From what I hear, it's about as long as the single-player.

    Portal 2 co-op match-up

    Clearly she isn't up to requisite trust standards. Sounds like you'd barely get 4 seconds of trust from her.
