oh, i misread College Professor requires students to study Postal. Now that would have been somewhat more interesting.

Pop art, 50 years late, move along.

Quake, Duke Nukem 3D, System Shock, Unreal, Blood, even Terranova belong more on that list than half the aweful stuff that is on.

HTC Desire. For those of you considering buying an iphone, do yourself a favour, and give an android phone a try, just to see how it is to actually own a phone, not being told by apple what you can and cannot do on it; usb tethering, no need for itunes, no censorship on your software...

Starcraft Terran Theme. Duke Nukem 3D theme by Megadeth. Arcanum Main Theme, actually the whole soundtrack is outstanding. Not an original work but still, Maybe by the ink spots, theme from fallout.

No sodding way the kid would ever complain to his mother about seeing boobs in a comic book, not a chance in a million, how come nobody called bullshit on it. The mother likely found that by some other mean and told the kid was offended, outraged and traumatized in order to pull some...

To clarify the point, at least from the beta perspective which is Multiplayer only, Starcraft II is even close to adults-only material. I would take the bet if I wasn't hoping the community would do such a thing. Statistically speaking, so far, the gaming community hasn't achieved squat...

Starcraft is pretty much the national sport in South Korea, there are close to 5M boxes sold there out of a population of 50M. Competitive games are actually shown on TV. So it was quite a surprise to learn that Starcraft II was to get an Adult Only rating by the Games Rating Board, a unit of...

Planescape:Torment mate, that should do the trick. Otherwise, another game strongly influenced by the fallout games although not an RPG per se would be Jagged Alliance 2 with the amazing v1.13 mod (http://ja2v113.pbworks.com/). 6 bucks DRM-free at Good Old Games. And c'mon, Oblivion and...

Getting eaten by a Grue in the original Zork or dying of old age in a bottomless pit in Zork Grand Inquisitor, although this one allowed you to meet another unlucky adventurer and raise a family.

I, robot and Minority Report, both were shite and whored out to product placement. Not to mention they totally ignored the plot of both I am legend missed the whole point of the book. In the same vein Starship Troopers overturned the whole point of the book brilliantly by adding a critical...

Here in France, a cellphone provider called Orange billed some bloke for over 45000 ? (that's about $67000), the guy allegedly went over his 1GB download limit on his 3G while his phone was switched onto a foreign network, unbeknownst to him and despite the fact that that he was still in France...

Used to watch these back in the days, even now I consider them outstanding.

Er... yeah, because we all know video game films were perfectly fine before Uwe Boll. Since 1975 to House of the dead in 2003, of the 33 films to receive the Palme D'or at the Cannes film festival, 29 were video game adaptations and two were actually Fraps'd video game footage that claimed to be...

The video. I hear it killed the radio star. Shame, really.
