    How much do you give to Humble Bundle?

    Humble Bundle is my savior. Every time there's a simple indie game out on Steam that I really want but am not willing to pay for, Humble Bundle comes out of nowhere and hands it to me along with a bajillion other games (note: A bajillion roughly equates to 5 - 8 in this example). Every time they...

    Barely known/obscure games you wish more people knew

    Einhander for the PS1. I have never enjoyed a game so much in my life, and yet I never owned because I could never find it (except on ebay where it's very expensive)

    Oh God, it's Jeff Gerstman all over again. (Gamespot Skyward Sword review)

    I'm confused by this Gerstman thing. I've never even heard of the guy or his review so I can't speak specifically to it, but I can say I bought Twilight Princess the day it came out, then beat it in a depressingly short amount of time, but enjoyed it. That sounds like a 7.5 - 8.5 game to me, I'd...

    Bethesda Nods to Minecraft in Skyrim

    The notched pickaxe was in Oblivion you know... edit: Of course, there's already someone who posted this before me. Here I was thinking I was the only one who remembered it from the last game

    Sexist Ad Lands EB Games Australia In Trouble

    I'm offended by the fact the ad stereotypes me as a heartless man who cares more about video games than my wife. This is just unacceptable. It's the 21st century and us men are still being regarded as such monstrous sub-humans. EB Games, you WILL be hearing from my lawyers.

    What is the most beautiful peice of music you've ever heard?

    Explosions in the Sky. I don't know how to link videos, but that wouldn't do them justice anyway...

    *gasp!* Someone who has never heard The Beatles??

    I don't worship the Beatles in any way. I wouldn't even include them in my top 10 favorite bands (which doesn't exist because I'm a snotty music prick who changes his list of favorite bands every couple of minutes). And since you already foresaw the argument against your post, I'll skip that...

    *gasp!* Someone who has never heard The Beatles??

    @Vanguard_Ex No no absolutely not! and I absolutely understand not liking, but those of us who do like them tend to really love them, so we can have these types of conversations. I assumed those who did not like the Beatles would just ignore the thread considering the band name is in the...

    *gasp!* Someone who has never heard The Beatles??

    So there i was talking to a friend of mine when Help came on by The Beatles. I stop the conversation then and there and proceed to sing like a drunken fool (because you know good and well that when The Beatles come on you are immediately taken over by some base instinct that causes you to lose...

    Valve: Modern Shooters "Pander" to Casual Gamers

    If Counter Strike keeps their classic "wait your turn, young one" idea going, that is, when you die you wait until the big boys are done playing before you spawn, I see it being the refuge many core gamers need to dodge the plethora of unskilled players (noobs, if you will) and finally have some...

    First time you made contact with this wonderful universe we call the internet

    I was thinking the other day about the very first time I got on the internet. My dad showed me some random website that would speak whatever you typed in, so he had typed this long paragraph ahead of time and posted it, so when I came in the room, the computer would start speaking directly to...

    Best Music In Video Games

    Best video game soundtrack ever was Tony Hawk's American Wasteland. No question. I know I'm gonna catch alot of flack for that, but we're talking about VERY good modern bands doing classic punk songs! Suburban Home, originally by the Descendents, was played by Taking Back Sunday...

    Best Small Touches in Video Games

    Red Dead Redemption's hunting feature. I spent hours just hunting because it was more enjoyable than the actual game for me (not that the game was bad, it was rather good actually, I just loved being able to ride my horse across the countryside and hunt anytime I like). Also the minigames like...
