    267: Azeroth Is Burning

    I'm sure they've kept the original maps (touched up of course) for some time-travel based quests/instances they can add in later on down the line, to tickle our nostalgia. They need to make these changes, leave them for a couple years so the old maps have faded into distant memory allowing...

    266: Making Fun Ain't Always Fun

    I was a web designer a while ago for about 3 years, and so I know what it's like to tinker with the HTML and CSS to try to get the page looking exactly what you want it to look like in all the major browsers. I can only imagine this to be the same, only many orders of magnitude more complex...

    Zero Punctuation: Torchlight

    Torchlight isn't a bad game, but Titan Quest is a better Diablo clone, especially with the Lilith and Masteries mods.

    Ever thought you don't need to exist?

    I was thinking a similar question, only on a bigger scale. How long would it take for the Earth to lose all trace of us if all humans disappeared? Reading round, I came across this article, and it makes for some very interesting (and strangely calming) reading...

    To the people who don't pirate: Is life really so bad?

    If I pirate I get it free. If I don't I have to pay for it. Simple as that really... kind of a no-brainer Whether I do so or not doesn't have any bearing on whether lifes good or not.

    World of Warcraft bashers

    Ok jesuschrist, six whole pages and I'm not reading them all so apologies if this has been said already. People put things down because they think they're shit. People perhaps put WoW down because the WoW community do really annoying things like spell the word "the" as "teh" and suchlike...

    Zero Punctuation: The Year in Review - 2008

    That was lazy but it's chrismas so I don't really blame you.

    The great n00b experiment

    Apart from my WoW phase a couple of years ago, I also have never chosen to do multiplayer in games. And after WoW I probably never will... If I want to interact with people I use my phone and go outside. I view gaming a bit like reading or that other thing I do: a solitary activity.

    The biggest let-down you've ever had about a new title

    Two thirds of the way through Bioshock.

    Cliffy B doesn't understand Mirror's Edge, and later compares demos to bad sex

    Go for it then, and best of luck to you. I know I certainly couldn't design a game as solid and as entertaining as Gears or Halo, but if I could, would I be proud of myself? Hell yeah! Games like Mirror's Edge, Psychonaughts etc may be more to our tastes than these mainstream games but...

    Cliffy B doesn't understand Mirror's Edge, and later compares demos to bad sex

    But all that said, whether or not Mirror's Edge will be any good, you can't get away from the fact that Gears of War is a lot of fun. And very successful - the guy has earned his arrogance.

    Gears of War 2 the worst game launch ever?

    But if you troll a troll, is it still a troll or is it like a double-negative and cancels out?

    Cliffy B doesn't understand Mirror's Edge, and later compares demos to bad sex

    Oh dear... EDIT: Just to clarify for the dense: I'm actually planning to get this game come payday, it does look quite fun and original (it is coming out on PC isn't it?). The POINT I was trying to make was that Cliffy is obviously a huge troll, and the existence of this thread shows he's...
