    Would you purposely name your child with something exotic or from a video game etc?

    Because it is a name (One I've considered naming a potential daughter). Fun Fact: Miyamoto named the princess of Hyrule after F. Scott Fitzgerald's wife Zelda Fitzgerald. To those saying "No, people should use 'normal' names", what defines a "normal" name? Is it one that's common like John...

    Emulation vs Piracy

    Emulation is not piracy. In the current context, emulation is playing a console or handheld game on a pc. This action is not illegal in any sense. However, how you obtain those games may or may not be piracy. Piracy is obtaining a product by a nonlegal means (not necessarily stealing, but...

    Can retro games hold up WITHOUT the nostalga?

    Yes, they can but a game that holds up well for some may not for others. It depends on four factors: Gamer "age", gamer tastes, game genre, and game quality. Gamer "age" doesn't necessarily refer to the age of the gamer, but the age of the games they started with. A gamer that started with...

    Quick question, is this stealing?

    No, he did not. The property was given to him willingly, as it came with the supplied legal download. And he deprive EA of their $10, he deprived them of his $10 that he could have given them. Ah, but he did not obtain the service, he performed the service himself. I assume he edited the ini...

    Quick question, is this stealing?

    He didn't say other humans, he said humans, as in all of them including himself. OT: No, it's not stealing for one reason: you bought the game new and, according to EA, you should have right to use the dlc if you bought the game new. If anything it'd be failure on EA's part for not fulfilling...

    This one's for the girls.

    Also not a girl but I would like to reply to two topics brought up in this thread: 1.) The term "Girl Gamer" and people against it Why be against the term? It just distinguishes the fact that said gamer is female. Just as I am a guy gamer, the OP is a girl gamer. The problem, however, comes...

    Is it okay to pirate stuff you already own?

    In the U.S. it's technically illegal. While it is legal to have a copy of a game you already own through legal means, you must make the copy yourself for it to be legal (not counting services like steam of course). With that being said, I don't see anything morally wrong with it EXCEPT in...
