    Forced to watch

    ah ha! Victory is mine for, you see, "A Nightmare Before Christmas" used to scare me when I was a child so I'd just watch that! Hell, I might just watch that anyways. This is Halloween, this is Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween...

    Poll: Minimum page count for school work.

    During my years in the public school system I had to write papers on many occasions and usually the teacher would tell us it had to be X page(s) long. After writing a couple of these I began to wonder, what is the point of having a minimum page count? The way I see it, if someone can...

    Grandpa Tastes Concrete Over Videogames

    I find it hard to form a proper opinion about this without any decent facts. What with organizations being inclined to lie for PR reasons and eyewitness testimony being so horrendously unreliable the only two things I'm trusting in this story are "man gets arrested with video game in pants" and...

    I dare everyone to listen to this song and not shed a single tear.

    The piano bit was good for the first minute or so. On the other hand, not a particularly sad song. "Young man chooses life of crime, ends in tragedy shortly thereafter" doesn't really do anything for me, he made the choice and got the consequences. I wouldn't break into someone's house and...

    What do you want for the Holidays that ISN'T a game?

    some new books, maybe some music. That's about it, really. Not really that many games recently that interested me.

    How do people stay thin?

    1 and 1/2 hours of rigorous martial arts training every day. Plus being so engrossed in gaming/programming that I accidentally forget to eat every now and then.

    You know you've played too much _______ when ________

    You know you've played too much S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Call of Pripyat when you instinctively try to push the quicksave key before you move through a door. *EDIT* You know you've played too much Dawn of War 2 when you subconsciously position tactical marine squads as you walk down the street...

    Poll: Which team do you join in team-based multiplayer?

    I usually pick the team that's going to face the most challenge. Also if I'm playing Red Orchestra or Darkest Hour and a trench-defense map comes up I will always try to get on the attacking team, I really hate defending trenches, it bores the living daylights out of me.

    Escape from New Vegas

    Yeah, I went back to 3 after playing NV. NV just bored the hell out of me. The Mojave Desert is just such a boring location.

    Red Orchestra: Why snipers?

    So 'Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad' came out a little while ago and this is a question for those of you who play it. Also 'Red Orchestra: Ostfront' players, this goes for them too. Why is everyone so crazy about the Marksman class? It seems like every time I join a game the...

    Most obsessive compulsive thing you've done in a game?

    I was playing Terraria with my friend and I decided to dig a tunnel straight down from our house to the lowest point I could reach. So I did. A perfectly straight tunnel all the way down. Took me a while but that's not the end of my story. So I started my tunnel by digging 4 block wide and 5...

    Bloodsuckers Return in Skyrim

    I saw "Bloodsuckers return" and my first though was "Stalker 2?" and then I saw "in Skyrim" and I was like "damn." And then I stopped caring.

    Non Americans: Does seeing American English bother you?

    Being an Australian living in America I do see that a lot but it never really annoyed me beyond my usual level of irritation at other people. The one time it did really annoy me was when I was doing my final presentation for high-school English class and on the power point I used "honour" and...
