    Why are you people so negative?

    You people? what do you mean "you people"? Nah just kidding. I think that the community here is actually a lot more positive about most things.

    If you play a low difficulty, do you ever feel ashamed?

    I usually go through on the first time on the hardest, and then once I've beaten it and I want to play it again, I'll play on the easiest difficulty.

    Westboro Baptist Chruch is coming to my town...

    Organize a counter-protest. If you can get enough people to protest against the Westboro Baptist Church people then maybe they'll just go away. All else fails, a night in jail for assault seems like a fair price to pay for breaking the nose of one of the protestors.

    Poll: How old were you?

    When you were too young to watch game trailers legitimately and you had to enter a fake age? Personally, I used to set it to the 31st of February because the computer didn't realize that it wasn't a real date.

    Is portal hard?

    When I played through it took me about 3-4 hours, however my friend took a very long time to beat it. Mostly because he's one of those people who gets antsy if he hasn't killed somebody 20 minutes into the game. If you do not fall in line with the aforementioned group, you should be fine.

    Poll: In the States you can have a drivers license at 16. That is much too young.

    Lets get things straight here, at 16 (at least in my state) you are eligible to get your driving permit. You have to be accompanied by somebody who has had a valid license for 5 years. Not until you are at least 17 and a half do you get your full, no strings attached, drivers license. Now...

    50 Americanisms That Brits Apparently Hate

    I thought that people thought that Americans were intolerant and ignorant. Not saying all of these statements are but some of them are just kind of stupid.

    Amazon versus Gamestop: Which to use?

    Personally I'm an Amazon guy for the following reasons 1) No lecture from the cashier to my mom/dad (I'm 16) about how they are an immoral parent who kicks puppies because they agree to buy me an M rated game. 2) Amazon's prices are better. 3) GameStop has screwed me over in the past...

    Hey Escapist, I was just wondering if there was anything new and good for the Wii out lately, I'm getting kind of tired playing with my Xbox and I just hooked up my Wii and finished Super Mario Galaxy 2 and was wondering if there's anything new anybody can recommend. -TRM

    Poll: New Pixar Trailor: Brave

    Pixar is a company that is essentially an anomaly. They consistently produce above average movies and although people did have negative things to say about Cars 2, I don't believe that the company is anywhere close it's capacity for excellence.

    Why does The Escapist hate kids?

    Because Kids are annoying... that would be a generic answer, but I feel that most people don't necessarily understand that age is no guarantee of maturity. Admittedly, kids under the age of 13 seem to not understand. I leave that sentence vague because there are many MANY things that they...

    Games You Want, But Will Never Come Out

    Scrapland 2... very probably never going to happen, but then again, Duke Nukem Forever is in fact coming out this year, so I suppose hope never dies.
