Dear Jim. As your primary justification for rape being worse than murder would appear to be that the victim has to continue living with the emotional pain of the rape, would you consider a rape-murder more socially acceptable than straight rape?

This is my all-time favourite sad song. Heart's a Mess by an Aussie artist called Gotye... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvbSiQZfACQ&feature=related EDIT: Totally fucked the video embed so I'll just leave the URL...

I don't know why but I get this strange feeling you're not being entirely truthful... OT: Top Gear is, hands down, one of my favourite TV shows of all time. I'm not really into the mechanics of cars but those boys just have so much fun fanging about in redonkulously powerful hypercars that I...

You guys should follow him on twitter. You'd have a far better idea of exactly how much shit he has to do every week... Let me give you a hint, it's more just playing a game and then making a video. Everyone who's having a whinge probably won't like his RDR "review", his save bugged out about 15...

Regarding extra goodies and free DLC being used as an incentive to buy a copy of a game... Recently Ubisoft released the first official patch for SC:Conviction which included some extra goodies for legitmate users such as new weapons and a new map. Not long after this, a well known group of...

"Theft 1. (Law) The act of stealing; specifically, the felonious taking and removing of personal property, with an intent to deprive the rightful owner of the same; larceny. [1913 Webster] Note: To constitute theft there must be a taking without the owner's consent, and it must be unlawful...

You appear to be confusing skill with taste and logic with opinion. Skill is a measurable commodity, taste is not. Yngwie Malmsteen is obviously and provably a more skilled guitarist than Kurt Cobain but my personal belief is that Kurt's music is far more compelling than Yngwie's. The level of...

It's not that I hate THEM, it's that I hate what they REPRESENT... The deification and commodification of banality and mediocrity. The only difference between them and the slew of talentless, manufactured pop-idiots like Lady GaGa, Britney Spears, Justin Bieber et al. is that they write their...

Hey Escapists! I'm facing a dilemma and I need your help... It's payday today and I'm all set to buy SC:Conviction. Now, I'm not a rich man and my local independant games shop has it on PC for AU$54 (Bargain!) versus AU$75 for 360. Problem is I am fiercely opposed to Ubi's redonkulous DRM and...

If I remember correctly, MS are claiming the newest revisions of the 360 (with the newest chipsets and extra heat sink) have a failure rate of 5-7% but I seem to remember a poll of retailers saying it's more like 20-25%. I could be completely wrong though, I can't be buggered googling it. :P

I just got the Orange Box the other day and I couldn't agree with you more. Epic, EPIC gaming experience! Also... Hey Valve! Where's my Episode 3, bitches?!
