    Faith in Humanity

    Faith in humanity? That's a little vague to say the least. Faith in that humanity will do what, exactly? I'm pretty sure that my neighbour won't walk over here and crack my skull with a bat, and then proceed to taking my shit. On the other hand, i belive that when our species finally goes...

    this is not a poll: favorite shooter

    S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl. Alot of reasons for that, but i'll list a few atleast. First of all, it's probably the most atmospheric game i've ever laid my hands on. Secondly, there's ALOT of different weapons, over 25 if i remember right and don't count customized variants. Thirdly...

    10/10 - Expression of perfection or indictment of the competition?

    Personally, if i'm actually interested in the game, i don't really look much at the numbers. Anyways, since the topic of this thead is the scores, i'll get on with it. I don't view a 10/10 as much as perfect, as i view it as the best to date. Basically, a 10/10 reaches new heights, and in...

    Favorite RTS

    Well, honorable mention must go to StarCraft. While i haven't touched it in years, it's the game that brought me into the RTS genre. The current favorite is Dawn of War, it's held strong to it's position for the years since the original release, though i'm not overtly fond of Soulstorm so far.

    New Canadian Anti-Piracy Bill Stirs Controversy

    Alright, this one pisses me off. I'm all for anti-piracy and whatever, but never at the expense of ligitimate consumers. I might be completely off here, but from what i've gathered Canada is one of the countries that overall seem to hold the consumers rights pretty high. I really hope this one...

    I Am Become Psycho Poker *****

    I guess i'm PPB, didn't use to, but that changed sometime during the last couple of years. Back when i was a kid i loved just faffing about, but no more. As said in the article, it also annoys me when others do that in my presence. I think most of those who dedicate alot of time to gaming reach...

    Does gaming create social rejects?

    1 - Definetly. 2 - True aswell. 3 - Yup. 4 - Yeah. 5 - Partially, i generally take note, contemplate wether i can gain something from what was said, then let it go without it really affecting me. 6 - Sadly true. 7 - I guess so. 8 - Yes. 9 - No. Well, now that that's out of the way, i...

    Youtube: Am I The Only One Who Dislikes...

    YouTube is riddled with alot of crap, but all those thrown together in five minutes montages really get on my nerves. As others have said before me, that they keep popping up in droves when i search for game or live concert footage just makes it worse. I'm not saying all of them are horrid, but...

    Hellgate: London, after many months and patches.

    Heh, good to hear they've improved it. They have a rather solid concept, but as you said, they had alot of issues at the start (I never actually bought it, but i was in the Beta until the end).

    Beat your expectation of a game?

    Well, Halo 3, for starters. I'm not a huge Halo fan, and the only game in the series i've really loved is the original. However, after Halo 2, i had sufficiently low expectations to be pleasantly suprised by the third one. Then we have Deus Ex. I didn't have an internet connection back then...

    Poll: Gaming time?

    I guess on average it's 5-8. Some days i don't play at all, others i can sit down for for 12 hours or more. If it's a good ol' LAN party, skipping sleep for a few days isn't unheard of. As for skipping out on other things, what would that include, exactly?

    Do you still play on older consoles?

    My SNES was what turned me into a gamer, and the love i hold for that console is beyond words. Whip it out for time to time for a good ol' nostalgic gaming spree. Ofcourse, i also have a shitload of other old games, and they come out of the closet now and then (But not as often as the SNES)...

    Poll: The journey or the end?

    The journey. And i usually hate it when the end comes around, no matter how awesome. I rarely feel like i've had enough of the game by then.

    Favorite Video Game Weapons

    Just about every weapon in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl, however, i'll list a few of the favorites. In-Game Name (Real Name) Akm 74/2 (AK-74) Note: Add a x4 scope and silencer for extra joy. GP37 (H&K G36) Note: A shame they only allow you to use the x3 sight, instead of being...

    Nvidia: PC Exclusives Are Dead

    While there are definetly doing to fewer PC exclusives, i highly doubt they will die out. There are games who simply wouldn't survive a move to consoles unscathed, atleast aslong as they don't start packaging in a keyboard and mouse setup with them. Anyways, yeah, as ccesarano said above me...
