    Mind-blowing voice acting revelations

    He also voices this strapping lad: Jen Taylor. I'm a bit of a Halo fan.

    Why online distribution will suck

    I think the only people who are really sweating it regarding online distribution are console gamers. Most PC gamers have been using Steam for all our PC purchases for years. Personally, I've been using it since 2008, and it's seriously the greatest program. It's got a great interface, the...

    Why online distribution will suck

    $80-90 games out of the question? Come to Australia. I feel your pain, my dear countryman.

    What do you hate the most about gaming?

    Well, the fact that Australia still pays almost double for its games than anywhere else in the world. I don't know why it's an issue; the discs and such are being manufactured in China, which is supposed to be one of our biggest trading partners. It's like, the history of Australia paying more...

    Your most prized achievement in gaming.

    I reckon completing COD4 on Veteran would be right up there, considering the difficulty of some of those missions. I haven't found much that can compare with that. Then again, 100%ing Oblivion is pretty good too. 100% on Super Mario World and Super Mario 64 took a while, and that was pretty...

    Your personal quote

    "If it's Opposite Day, it would be the opposite of Opposite Day thereby negating Opposite Day." So take that, 8-year-old kid. "I will kill your family. And eat them."

    Ruin-A-Wish Foundation.

    Granted, but the pillows are filled with pennies, and they beat you to death. I wish I didn't have to wait for Halo 4 to be released.

    Deal with it.

    From what I've read, the vast majority of the people in this thread are massive pussies who can't handle a game more complicated than "Kill enemies; level up." No wonder games are going through such a period of heavy dumbing-down. Deal with it.

    Deal with it.

    I hate that society now thinks that Call of Duty is a series reserved for 16-26 year old guys, who are immature, stupid, and obsessed with sex. I mentioned COD (the original) to my girlfriend (who isn't a gamer), and she immediately assumed that it was some grandiose, over-blown pile of...

    Activision Calls Modern Warfare 3 Countdown a Hoax

    Bring up the page and listen very carefully. I'm almost certain he's saying "Soap." Also, look at the silhouette that appears just after the timer does. That's definitely a soldier of some description. It bears more than a passing resemblence to Shepherd, actually.

    Poll: Escapists' Avatars

    My avatar is a one-of-a-kind art piece, created for me specifically by a member of another forum that I frequent.

    Movies your glad you watched but can't recommend.

    The Jacket Even though it was one of the most confusing, non-sensical films I've ever seen, I enjoyed it. Unfortunately, I just can't see myself recommending it to anyone. I loved it, but I hated it. It's complicated =P Also, I noticed that someone said Ichi The Killer. Why would you not...

    American English Professor hates British English

    Captcha Secrets: - Only one of the words in the Captcha is the word being checked. - The other word is simply a red herring. It exists because if only one word existed in a Captcha, somebody would be able to write a computer program to break it, therefore negating the usefulness of Captcha...
