    Titanfall Tactics

    I generally use an SMG (C.A.R. or compact, depends on the map), Stim, and Run-and-Gun. The rest of the loadout can vary, but those three best facilitate my go-fast-and-shoot-things playstyle. And with Run-and-Gun, I don't even have to stop going fast to shoot things! On the Titan side of...

    The Geth/Android/Toaster/Slave theory

    If I'm understanding you correctly, the assertion you're making is that "A sentient entity's obligation to the purpose for which it was designed is more important than that entity's autonomy." Please correct me if I'm wrong. Bearing that in mind, let me pose to you a question: is a human...

    Escape to the Movies: The Lego Movie

    Actually, both the TVTropes page and the movie locale are references to a play by Aristophanes. But yeah, Unikitty was awesome.

    Man Spends Three Years Walking to The End of The World (Of Minecraft)

    "Posts: 1" D- Did you make an account for the express purpose of dissing a guy's YouTube show? A show that's basically a pseudo-podcast + Minecraft for charity? Indeed . . . *EDIT* Didn't think to check the join date before posting that. My bad. */EDIT* OT: This is pretty cool. I...

    Are very few people bothered by Youtube's upcoming copyright content ID thing?

    ContentID is a proprietary product; all videos discussing it were flagged for copyright strike. Okay, okay, serious face now. There are actually two separate (but related) issues here: the upcoming changes to YouTube's MCN partner policy and the recent CopyrightID "dragnet." Now, I'm not...

    The Adventures of Hodgkin-Chan

    It's a pity that Microsoft's IE11 benchmarks turned out to be bullshit. I actually wanted IE11 to be a solid, competitive browser, if only to put a rest to the far too weary "lol IE sux" jokes. Also, for anyone who hasn't seen the Inori Aizawa video:Incredibly silly, but in a good way. Most...

    Battlefield 4 Teams With Axe For Embarrassing Cross-Promotion

    Not only is it bad, it's bad in a very weird way. That, and it gives me awful flashbacks to the horror that is a middle-school boys' locker room.

    Unskippable: Lost Planet 3

    I don't know about snow, but "hellacious ice-ball" is a pretty common theme for actual planets.

    WHITE GUY DEFENSE FORCE GO!

    Nah, buttlonging's got a better ring to it. The hard 't' sound followed by the 'h' doesn't flow as well, in my humble opinion. [hr] On a completely unrelated note! captcha: sudo make sandwich Hm . . . "make: *** No rule to make target 'sandwich'. Stop." Well, so much for that idea.

    Deliberately terrible writing, is it more fun?

    Ah, yes, My Immortal, the most infamous of fanfics. And what's this? Comedy gold in the reviews, starting near the bottom of the page! That sounds truly glorious. I'll have to read it sometime.

    WHITE GUY DEFENSE FORCE GO!

    Joking aside, the thought of computer suicide actually made me kind of sad. We seem to be cruising at one post every ~3 minutes. As far as the Escapist goes, we've achieved lightspeed.

    Microsoft Now Owns XBone.Com

    You know how legos.com redirects you to a page asking you to say "LEGO bricks"? I would have expected something similar, but XBone.com redirects to a Bing search for "xbone". Most curious. **EDIT** Also, someone needs to tell Microsoft to make more sparing use of that pale green color. Ew.

    The Big Picture: The Big Letdown

    The problem is that Man of Steel does engage in spoon-feeding (of a sort), and fails to provide the ideas that are genuinely important to establishing its characters. We're constantly told what's supposed to be important to Superman, but he never really does anything to show us what he wants...

    You May Recognize The Escapist's New Editor-In-Chief

    Hey, Greg, can we get a photo of you in a laurel wreath? I find myself desiring a picture captioned "Ave G-Tit!"

    if you had one wish.

    But the OP implied that there are no negative repercussions for making the wish and that the spirit of the wish must be fulfilled rather than the letter. Taking that in mind, I proceeded to put a slightly embarrassing amount of thought into this. I initially felt obligated to make a wish that...
