    Anyone any good at making tunes on Zelda's in game Ocarina?

    I've gotten addicted to it, especially after hearing the Rick Roll. They're much easier to play on the 3DS than the gamecube controller or the N64 controller. An addition is that you can press use the d-pad and the analogue stick at the same time with the same thumb. This means that you can...

    British/English Escapists, please explain :"Taking the Piss"

    I don't think anyone has said this yet, but the origin is pretty lude/funny. It comes from the phrase piss proud. That phrase basically means when a man who struggles to achieve an erection gets morning glory. http://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/piss_proud A theory as to why morning...

    MovieBob leaving The Escapist

    I gotta admit. I returned here after finding that MovieBob and Extra Credits. I'm excited to see where the site's going. I will miss Jim though, don't know what you have till it's gone. Sounds more like you are "putting words into someone's mouth". MovieBob is the prime example of a pseudo...

    Poll: Why are Devs trying to turn games into movies?

    This is absolutely true, but I do believe that it's because it's easier to market a movie than a video game. It's easier to make a trailer from scripted events. I think that a lot of customers simply don't understand gameplay. I don't even mean as a storytelling device, I mean that even...

    Poll: Dragon Age 3 Expectations

    Well according to the Escapist, Dragon Age 2 was worthy of 100%, so therefore Bioware can do absolutely no wrong and DA3 will be critically acclaimed even if it's awful. It will be awful. It's Bioware. They're no longer the same company. It's like Bioware's face has been ripped off and EA is...

    Super Smash Bros. is Done With New Characters

    True, but most of the characters who are called clones actually aren't. Wolf, Luigi, Ike, Lucas and arguably Brawl's Falco are the main examples. Falco and Wolf have very similar special attacks, but their standard and smash attacks are all very different to Fox's, same with Lucas to Ness...

    BioWare Did Right By Us

    THIS For the love of god Bioware needs to understand this. It was not a bad ending because it was a sad or unhappy ending in the sense that The Godfather had a bad ending, it was a bad ending because it was a terrible ending that contradicted the themes of all three games up to that point...

    Super Smash Bros. is Done With New Characters

    Sonic Adventure 2 did it. Metroid has never really had a huge roster of characters, nor was it ever about them. It seemed more to be about a lonely and at times clostrophic atmosphere. In my opinion it makes absolute sense for her to be the only character from Metroid, she does work alone...

    BioWare Did Right By Us

    Well she was manly and gruff, until they turned her into a babe and included characters that look straight out of Jersey Shore in order to get a wider audience. I didn't make the image I posted, it's just the one that goes around the internet. The other points still stand however.

    BioWare Did Right By Us

    I'm not going to read anymore of your comments about "artistic integrity" in a game that does this: http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/4853/biowarequality.jpg They are not artists. They are a business and, with KotOR, a service provider. I don't even know how you can defend this as an...

    Jimquisition: Changing A Game's Ending And Destroying Art

    people tend to misunderstand the phrase "bad ending". It doesn't mean unhappy, it means bad. It was shit.

    The Story Doesn't Matter

    yeah bioware is praised because the gameplay is AMAZING in their games. Wait no, they were praised because of the story and characters, which they failed to deliver with on ME3. It's not paid review, it's The Escapist couldn't be trusted with the Mass Effect 3 review because there were...

    Silent Hill HD Collection Miffs Series Art Director

    Ah well, failure of a port. I find it hard to believe this could happen, isn't fog usually a limitation? Even silent hill 1 could handle it.
