As he's mentioned other places, Jim felt that everyone was saying "Yahtzee won this round" every week, no matter how hard he tried, simply because he didn't do as many complicated metaphors like Yahtzee. That, and he really enjoys seeing the serious Escapist crowd trying to make sense and find...

I gotta agree with this. Awesome music plus gorgeous graphics plus customizable cities makes this menu awesome. Also - something that is sometimes sadly lacking - IT'S EASY TO FIND WHAT YOU WANT TO DO.

Just to flaunt tradition, the order of MY list is 100% accurate and relevant. 1. The Curse of Monkey Island 2. Doom II: Hell on Earth 3. Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People 4. Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds 5. Portal 2 6. Doom 3 7. Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse 8. Deus...

Starcraft II: Heart of the Swarm (to be released in March.) Not much to say. Big Starcraft II player, can't wait to get my hands on some Zergy* campaigny* goodness. *=real words

Finally overcoming a horrible depression and self-loathing that has consumed much of my life with the help of a wonderful, beautiful girl.

I come from a certain part of Kansas where nearly every vowel becomes "uh", and the survivors become "eh". We don't shorten words ("fucking" would never become "fuckin'"), in fact, we're likely to drag certain consonants out far longer than necessary. "I fucking love you man" BECOMES "Ieh...

DooM II: Hell on Earth - Other than the non-existant story, flow-breaking text crawls, repetitive gameplay, hideous graphics, inconsistent level design, and non-functionality on modern computers, this piece of bland garbage IS THE MOST FUN YOU CAN HAVE WITH YOUR COMPUTER! I'm sorry, I couldn't...

Consider yourself hugged. I've actually talked a lot about SWGB in other topics on this forum, because it was so much more than a clone. It had much better civilization balance and an interesting story, and the air units added a whole new dimension to the gameplay!

Age of Empires I've been playing this game series since I was a year old, and I still love them with all my heart. They introduced me to a love of RTSs, a love of strategy gaming in general, and a love of video games, since again, it was my first. Best game in the series, in my opinion, was...

As a maker of comics, I actually do both, and for me, writing has always been easier. Now, I think that for the most part, that's a personal thing - I've been writing for a long time, and coming up with stories isn't the problem so much as deciding which stories NOT to tell. Drawing, on the...

The First 30 seconds of Scott Pilgrim VS The World. After th 8-bit Universal logo and the line "Once upon a time...in the mysterious land...of Toronto, Canada", I knew that I loved that movie (which has since become one of my favorite films).

The first video game ever made was Pong. Pong is still as addictive today as ever. Even if you don't like that, Pac Man came out a mere 8 years later, Tetris 4 years after that, and those are still plenty fun. There are no old games, just intolerant gamers. EDIT: I just noticed that a...

I definitely talk to myself while playing. I consider it a sign of immersion. If I'm really into a game, and I get hit in-game and lose some health, I will usually actually say aloud, without thinking, "Ow!". I'll talk to the characters, etc. I do this especially in Half-Life, where I almost...

Age of Empires. I first played it when I was a year old, and since then, it's always been a huge part of my consciousness.
