    Poll: Metal and it's Deterioration in the Pop Music World

    Because you didn't pose a question, you made flame bait. You took a bad argument and made it worse by presenting your opinions as fact. I do not think of you as a "purist," I think of you as one of the "new metal fans" who latched on to old school metal as a way to set themselves apart and...

    Poll: Metal and it's Deterioration in the Pop Music World

    *sigh* Really? You want to stoke this fire? The problem with modern metal is not the mainstream, its not guitar hero, its not any silly shit you happen to think it is. The problem with metal nowadays is people like you, "Not Good" people whose scope of metal is so infinitesimal in the...

    Why does everyone hate George Bush Jr?

    Hypocritical statements (re: What he said about Russia invading Georgia, feel free to look it up) Near destruction of all foreign relations (maybe not with the governments, but surely with the populations, might have to stick with the "Ich bin kanadisch" in January) Rich get richer, poor...

    Manliest Music

    At least SOMEONE here has some taste. (Also, radio metal, like Disturbed / Avenged Sevenfold is not manly. Just FYI)

    8 years to develop, 8 hours to beat, What do you think of SPORE?

    I'm curious what your definition is of beating the game. Maybe you are only getting into space and doing nothing once you get there? How many planets have you terraformed? How many alien civilizations have you made peace with, or wiped off the map? Have you downloaded any of the non-existent...

    Should my children play games?

    I'm going to preface my response by saying that I am 26, I've been playing video games ever since the Sega Master System, so bear that in mind based on my response (which may get long winded). I think it was easier for someone my age to grow up with minimal parental supervision when it came...

    Zero Punctuation: Prince of Persia Retrospective

    Sorry, it was kind of long winded :P No, it's not.

    Except you are wrong about number four.

    Zero Punctuation: Prince of Persia Retrospective

    Its not lazy, it's a hackers sensibility. Why would you re-write (re-make) something that you already have? If you've already written code that does what you want, you copy and paste it into the new program. Similarly, if you've already made the sprites for your wildly popular internet...

    Zero Punctuation: Prince of Persia Retrospective

    I think it's just silly, personally. I am a fan of his, and I make sure (Even at work) to try and catch the new ZPs right when they come out, but I wasn't one who would email him about his end-of-video sarcastic questions, or send him scathing responses when he has a differing opinion on a...

    Zero Punctuation: Prince of Persia Retrospective

    Apparently all you "fan-personz" (spelled with a z to make it more in line with "bois") failed to notice the rather large sentence at the end of the video above the URL for his website. Edit: The one in contention is Spider-man 2 (which, SHOCKING DEVELOPMENTS, was a great game, I think I'll...

    Zero Punctuation: Prince of Persia Retrospective

    I like how people respond before its even possible for them to have watched the whole thing.... You act like its awesome, but you haven't watched it all, and are merely looking for a new way to say "first" without getting banned for it.

    Halo 3 Beats Out GTA IV, Portal, Wii Fit For Edge Innovation Award (Keep this mature)

    Its been beaten into the ground, but this STILL isn't innovation. Back in 1999, there was a server side mod for CS 0.5 (or right abouts there). playing on this server, I could track every single gun, on every single map, against every single other person I ever shot / got shot by. I could...

    The stupidest way you have hurt yourself.

    Hrmm, I could go into the myriad of injuries received from foam sword fighting (LARPing, Boffer fighting, whatever you want to call it), including gouges, scrapes, getting a sword core to limbs/face, etc. However, one of the dumber ones was done, not while fighting, but at an event. Dagorhir...

    Zero Punctuation: Ninja Gaiden 2

    Pirates are best? Pfft. Vikings are better than pirates OR ninjas. (And while Zombies are cool HungryFreak... Vikings still win.) Oh, and Vikings are better than Robots too. Also, Vikings are the OG Pirates. Side note: If you even so much as THINK about the horrid movie...
