    VA-11 Hall-A Review - Making Drinks and Meeting People

    Sounds like my cup of tea. Atmospheric cyberpunk, bar tending and nice little details all sound amazing. Anyone know if it's on steam?

    Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Delayed to August

    Why do I keep seeing people saying that the game looks mediocre? It looks like the original HR but with more choices, more verticality, and anything that was annoying improved or fixed. Have all the naysayers seen footage I haven't? I'll be honest, I'm just looking forward to it because I...

    Welcome Back Commander: XCOM 2 Invades Your PC In November

    People keep talking about how the original XCOM is a piece of cake for most computers to run. Imagine my disappointment when upon downloading the demo, the game turned out to be damn near unplayable, with framerates through the roof even with every graphics option turned down low. This on a...

    Zero Punctuation: Cyberpunk Double (Dex & Invisible, Inc.)

    Yep. Still having problems with the new video player. Funnily enough, it always works if I come back one day after an episode is put up. And I've done everything the help page has told me to, seems I just have to wait 24 hours for some arbitrary reason. Oh well. Guess I'll see you guys...

    #022 Negative Reinforcement

    "Your earnest sexism is endearing, private Raccoon" has to be the best line I've seen from Critical Miss so far. Apart from the whole comparing sex lives to videogame logic comic, maybe.

    Unconventionally attractive characters in video games

    Winter Wyvern from Dota 2. Don't judge me man, listen to her voice first and then you can call me names: http://dota2.gamepedia.com/Winter_Wyvern_responses Along the same line, I'm pretty sure a lot of people would find the Tristana visual update from League of Legends to be weirdly...

    The most famous person from your town/city

    ...You mind if I ask why? I hear nothing but praise for the guy everywhere I go, so I'm interested to see why somebody wouldn't like him. Not trying to detail the thread, just curious. On-topic, eh, not a lot. Slovakia isn't exactly great for famous people. Got a lot of half-Slovak celebs...

    Star Wars Battlefront: UPDATE 2: The Missing Content Strikes Back.

    Just keep getting more disappointed by the minute. Guess that'll teach me to bring my hopes up. See you around, guys, going to go drink my sorrows away. Goodbye Kashyyyk, goodbye Rhen Var and goodbye Naboo. I'll have plenty of fond memories of you. And goodbye Genosis space, with all the...

    Star Wars: Battlefront Will Ignore the Prequels, Free Ep. VII DLC Planned

    Aw, hell. The clone troopers were always my favourite army to play as, and I have a lot of fond memories of the maps based on the prequels. Oh well, not much I can do. And as long as they follow through with land to space combat and give us those good old massive battles, I'm a happy man.

    Best well written/designed sexy video game characters

    Looks like you were, brother. Can't really blame people, though. Controversial subject. Close to people's hearts. And high emotions mixed with strong opinions can make for an unpleasant cocktail. On-topic, I second Miranda and would also volunteer Viktoria from the Thief series. She's...

    Best voice acting in a video game

    I've played both League of Legends and Dota, and the voice acting in Dota really stands out, for some reason. The smooth rasp of Necrophos (like an evil British Garrus) and Luna's wonderful Scottish accent help me enjoy the game even when things are going terribly. I also vote for Logan...

    The Big Picture: Off Target - Don't Censor Me Part 2

    I just wanna say that your profile picture really matches with that comment. Sounds exactly like something Wash would say :D With regards to the topic, ech, most people have already said what I would've said. I would like to mention though that the treatment of hookers in the GTA series...

    Your favorite female vocalists

    Sharon Van Etten - Magic Chords Cat Power - Human Being Mazzy Star - Into Dust And pick pretty much any song from either Portishead or the Cranberries. Pretty sure I'm just scratching the surface here, though. There's thousands of really great female vocalists out there.

    The Big Picture: Remembering the Real Jack Thompson

    I'm with Jojo and Darxide here. I can't remember the last time Jack Thompson was relevant, and it seems like to most gamers he's more of an old joke than a "boogieman". Also? I think anger about Thompson wasn't so much about "he's gunna take our vidya away" than frustration at someone being...

    Words/phrases that piss you off

    Trigger is a word that annoys the living hell out of me. I suffer from a condition where I have "Triggers", but I despise the word because I'm so used to hear it being used by the overly-sensitive or people who get offended easily: the dark side of Tumblr, as it were. Naive is another...
