    The last song you listened to will now be played at your funeral.

    Poll: More ads on The Excpaist - Problem solved?

    It doesn't really matter whether or not they put more non-Escapist ads on the site. It might help, yes, but I think ad revenue is going to drop considerably-across the board, for every kind of site-as ad blockers get more popular. I'm not using one because I personally don't mind the ads on most...

    Why are people freaking out over the "Always Online" aspect of Diablo 3?

    Here's the thing: the cash auction house should not be in the game. One, it legitimizes something Blizzard has been railing against in their other games and it all but endorses Chinese gold selling. Two, it's selling power. Yes, these are items that are attainable in-game with enough time and...

    Guild rule: no hurt feelings

    On the one hand, trying to guard everyone's feelings is stupid. People will get offended. There will be conflict. Sometimes bluntness works best for resolving it. Bluntness, however, is not calling someone autistic. If it was my guild you'd be out on your ass the first time you'd say something...

    You now have a Army of the last thing you killed in a videogame.

    So I'd have an army of Ganondorfs. Hell. Yes.

    Why Do A Lot Of People Not Like Linkin Park's New Stuff/Do You Like Their New Music

    They've always been whiny, but their sound was at least somewhat unique when they first came on the scene. Now the only thing I can call them is generic. Generic, whiny, and lacking what little edge they did have. There's way better music out there.

    Video games are the only art you can be bad at enjoying

    This again? Some games are, some games aren't. A game that's more about the experience than the skill required to see it through leans more on the artistic side whereas something like Super Mario Bros. may have its backers but really isn't art so much as it is an exercise in timing and skill...

    Why Is Pirating Games Bad But Pirating Anime and Manga Is Ok?

    Personally I believe there are grey areas when it comes to piracy. Downloading a new game without paying for it deprives publishers and developers of the revenue they need to continue operating, but if you download something that's ten years old you're not hurting anybody for the most part. Say...

    Poll: what's your favorite show on the Escapist?

    I'd go with Doraleus and Associates if it were currently running.

    Poll: What's a reasonable percentage to play a game till?

    If it's an average but enjoyable game there's no reason to do more than the minimum. If I really love it I'll go 100%, but it's always one of those two.

    Poll: The Legend of Zelda....Why do you love or hate it?

    I've always been a fan of the Zelda series. In my view, they're timeless in the way old Disney movies are. Yeah, the primary audience may be young, but they have a broad appeal. The gameplay is always very polished and while the main plotline is usually very predictable and cookie cutter...

    Poll: South Park... Ending?

    Everything good knows when to end. South Park has been getting stale; the last time I enjoyed a whole season was probably 10. It's not just a matter of getting old, the quality has declined. It's no different than with series like The Simpsons or Family Guy-they hit their prime long ago and what...

    Escape to the Movies: The Hangover 2

    Bob, if you're gonna do storylines this is how to do it. Loved the opening to this one; caught me totally off guard and got a few good chuckles out of me. Well done.

    Portal 2 Player Doesn't Think With Portals, Wins Anyway

    The whole point is to do thing the maker's never intended. Just watch one of the many TAS runs available on youtube.

    you can port to a game to any system, what would it be?

    God of War to a Nintendo console. I want Kratos in Super Smash Bros.
