    Total War: Rome II Review - Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum.

    4 stars? Try 1. This review is way too generous. I expected more from an indie publication like Escapist. This is the kind of pulled punches we expect from PC Gamer. This game is a wreck of forgotten features and truly abysmal AI. The features that are in the game are largely broken or...

    Korean Officials Raid Blizzard

    Good on you, Korean gaming brothers. You were fools to buy such a silly, little, game in the first place... but at least you have the balls and good sense to say F this.

    Zero Punctuation: Diablo 3

    This line of reasoning is invalid. It's not a movie or a book or something we can't know almost everything about by watching gameplay footage and using the internet. Furthermore, it's Diablo THREE. It's the THIRD installment of a game that came out in 1996 - that was already ripping off other...

    Knights and Vikings Collide in Upcoming Genre Mashup, CastleStorm

    Why.... why, does this look like a smurf shat itself? This is for toddlers? Oh look the captcha is a pampers ad too, perfect.

    Zero Punctuation: Diablo 3

    I hope he didn't actually pay blizzard money to review the boring, shit game the with forced online. That would be contributing to more boring, shit, forced online games.

    Diablo 3 Review

    Yes I'm talking about all those old Baldurs Gate games. I think I see what you mean now by saying those games are why bioware turned to making games like The Old Republic -- because mmos bring in steady streams of cash. But I still say those older games sold REALLY well and mmos from here on...

    38 Studios' MMO Screens Leak

    That..... is awful. I'd rather look at something Friz Freleng shat out onto the floor. If I want to inhabit an ugly cartoon, I could drop acid and head to Disney World, have a better time and be less frightened than I was just now looking at those hideous images. Purple lighting...

    Fake Angry Birds Maker Gets Fined £50,000

    This must be what Willard was talking about when he said the Russians were our number 1 global enemy *rolls eyes*

    Fetch Quests

    I appreciated that read, but I think you might be stark raving mad, Hilary. "I don't know about you, but I play games not for escape, but to be reminded of all the boring tasks I have to do in my normal life." I thought that was winding up the big punchline at the end of this article...

    Diablo 3 Review

    What do you mean -- Baldur's did extremely well. And the remakes are looking really good so far. They won't blow minds with their graphics but, the story and gameplay (more important) will be awesome. Besides, without all the strobing, flashing, exploding...

    Diablo 3 Review

    Repetitive garbage. It's the soggy fast food in a greasy bag compared to the feast of roast meats and exotic fruits that was games like Icewind Dale and Baldur's Gate. Why do people pay Blizzard to shovel this gaudy shit to them?

    Journey Creator: Games Aren't Good Enough for Adults

    As an adult, I have to agree with Jenova Chen completely. Yes, Angry Birds is fun to swype at on my smartphone while waiting for the train. Yeah, Battlefield 1942 kept me shooting at people with bolt action rifles past 2am countless nights. But as we invest more of ourselves (as a society)...

    Elder Scrolls Online's Main Story Will Be a Solo Affair

    BORING. Not the article, the game. Why the hell would I want to always be the hero? Especially in a massively multiplayer game? It's 1000x more interesting to be anything but the hero. Only kids want to be the heroes. Gamers are getting into their 60's now. And what the hell is the point...

    Server Issues Mar Diablo III's Launch

    Mandatory internet access, for single player? That is immeasurably idiotic, if not least because some people will now not purchase the game. We already have massive bandwidth issues, so even if you have the capability to be constantly jacked in, you might well be dropping packets faster...
