    Do people not realize games aren't $60?

    Australians crying in the corner.

    MovieBob leaving The Escapist

    I only watch the odd ZP episode, I only came back twice a week specifically for MovieBob. So... well, bye. It's been great!

    Escape to the Movies: Son of God

    I'm not a theologian or a historian... but why is a middle-eastern man always played by Europeans?

    Thoughts on the Sonic Boom trailer?

    Actually excited. Hate Knuckles' redesign - but everyone else looks pretty cute. After freaking out a bit over Sonic he actually won me over in the TV trailer. That it's being developed in the West can only be a good thing. Sonic Team are possible the most insensitive dev team on the planet...

    DRM X1 - What are you going to do about it?

    Sadly, I think skipping a generation may be unbearable to some gamers with significant investment in IP's like Halo - or Mass Effect if it was still going. AAA games that'd be hard to go without the next part of the story (I guess you could always borrow from a mate, but if you're like me...

    DRM X1 - What are you going to do about it?

    I like it. And I only just realised what 'xbone' was. I seriously thought it was a TV show that had recently popped up. x-bone. (well I abbreviated to X1 :P) I was thinking of not buying upon launch, and listening to feedback from the interwebs.

    DRM X1 - What are you going to do about it?

    Gamers are getting mad. With Microsofts digital rights managed getting clearer, it's also becoming more transparent just how corporate-minded the gaming industry is becoming. Some may say that's inevitable or that it's the POINT OF A BUSINESS, but Microsoft is asking gamers to sacrifice a lot...

    Poll: Lets pretend the government passes a law stating that you can't have a gun anymore...

    Hand them over. Here is aus where guns are banned more people get killed by toasters.

    Poll: Lets pretend the government passes a law stating that you can't have a gun anymore...

    And so every once in a while some poor sucker on the street gets his head blown off with a handgun. Gun's a gun and a loony is a loony :( I guess I would hand them over, but I haven't been brought up in an environment which places affection on the right to 'bear arms'. In Aus we REALLY...

    "Heroics" that left a bad taste in your mouth

    A section in Fable 3 has you capture a key character of important relation to you. A mass-murderor and tyrant, your only options are to kill him like the noble king/queen you are.... or let him join you like the noble king/queen you are. Neither is techincally a 'wrong' choice, you'll just piss...

    Well I won't be buying the new Tomb Raider...

    I'm not sure that's the case. Look at the film industry - most protagonists are male. I'd say most mainstream music artists are male, but perhaps that's because the only era of music I really listen to is 70's-90's so I could just be stuck in the past. Look at the corporate level of major...

    Well I won't be buying the new Tomb Raider...

    I think everyones reaction to the rape scandal is more disgusting. A vulnerable character really shouldn't be toted triumphantly as one, it's a little pathetic - are we that desperate for something new? If they're using rape to try and make us want to cuddle Lara and tell her it's going to be...

    Hurting animals for cultural/religious reasons

    Lol, how about you stop assuming that I don't. I made no reference to any kind of fact that I don't know where my meat comes from - I know very well that the animals I eat are stunned and killed as humanely as possible. I said it's a contradiction that I'm not vegetarian but I still care about...

    Hurting animals for cultural/religious reasons

    Some animals are killed inhumanely for cultural or religious reasons. To be honest, I can't stand it. It doesn't matter what culture you're from, I don't agree with animals being killed without be stunned or otherwise making it humane as possible (I can see the contradiction, I'm not a...

    Baa Baa Black Sheep now considered racist

    Wait, I'm not sure who you're agreeing with. You start off saying you're not sure then end with "I haven't seen that evidence yet [for videogames causing violence]. Gaming seems to cause some kind of aggression in the short term, the same way playing on a sports field does. On the netball...
