    Do As They Say, Not As I Do

    thanks for taking the time to write this article and share what you've learned. i'm a pretty avid gamer myself and wrestle with how that will change once my wife and i start having children. although this can't have been easy for you, it sounds like you're doing a great job as a parent.

    Poll: Was this police shooting justified in your opinion? (Graphic)

    completely justified. you're taught a principle in the academy of force-plus-one. that means that any force used against you, you meet it with one level of force greater so that the threat will stop. so basically if someone is passively resisting you, you go hands-on and can force that person to...

    Amazing games that absolutely SHOULDN'T get/have got sequels

    i disagree. making a sequel most times involves adding to the plot of the first game. this can detract from the first by filling in gaps poorly where our imagination could do a better job, or just by giving us that knowledge of what the characters were doing next that can color our perception of...

    Most dangerous creatures you ever saw. In a zoo doesn't count. has to be wild.

    woke up to a bobcat licking my sleeping bag while camping. my idiot friend had spilled hot chocolate the night before, and some of it hit my sleeping bag... guess i didn't get it entirely clean before going to sleep. not sure who was more scared: me seeing the bobcat licking the sleeping bag...

    Modern Warfare 3 Trailer Kicks Off World War III

    is it sad that although i'm excited for this game to come out and to see a resolution to the storyline, the thing that made me the MOST excited was the possibility of getting another single player AC-130 mission? ;-)

    mine was pretty simple. needed a new gamertag and also wanted something that reflected more of my personality.

    Trailers: Mass Effect 2: Arrival

    played it... thought it was okay. the solo aspect of the mission didn't feel natural to me after assembling this awesome team throughout the rest of the game. oh well, story was decent, if not wonderful.

    very glad i didn't get DA2... maybe down the line on steam sale or something, but definitely not paying full price.

    Games you loved, but will likely never play more than once.

    i dunno, i thought KOTOR 1/2 and ME 2 had quite a lot of replay value. i think it has something to do with the relative shortness of those games versus JRPG's and some other western RPG's. now oblivion, which ate over 120 hours of my life (i finished EVERYTHING) is one that i most likely won't...
