    Zero Punctuation: Overwatch vs Battleborn

    I have played both games. The two games are pretty different. The reason why I like Battleborn more is character customization. Through gear and talent choices, you can change the play and feel of a character. This can lead to build / gear loadouts that vary from ineffective to wrecking crew on...

    Why is Steam defending cheaters?

    While I despise cheaters, a VAC ban is permanent loss of access to all of their Steam games. This is a pretty painful penalty. Is DS2 actually a VAC game now?

    The most fun PSP games anyone have any suggestions

    Jeanne d'Arc from Level-5 is one of my favorites along side with Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together. Of course, if you have never played Final Fantasy Tactics: war of the Lion is good as well.

    Poll: Dragon Age Origins and 2- Best Romance?

    Yeah, I was also torn between Merrill and Leliana. Leliana had had the accent and interesting back story, while Merrill had the headless plunge into danger. In the end, I voted for Merrill as well. I will have to look up the comic.

    Jimquisition: Salt Of The Earth - A Steam Fail Story

    Steam / Valve just simply need to start offering refunds like every other digital service (GoG, Origin, Amazon, etc.). If you dislike the game, you should be able to return said game.

    Games that you will never play. Ever.

    Humm, interesting lists. I for one tend to judge a series after playing a couple. 1. GTA (I played San Andres and can not understand the hype. Mindless violence is still mindless). 2. Dark Souls (I played Demon Souls. Boring memorization coupled with uninteresting story). 3. Metal Gear...

    steam hate, why?

    Steam is a service. When you are suspended or "banned", you loose access to all of your games. Valve explicitly has a policy not to tell the reasons behind a suspension or a "ban". Your only hope is the courts or arbitration.

    steam hate, why?

    I buy lots of products on Steam but I refuse to sell my Intellectual Integrity for a few cheap games. 1. DRM simply blows. Having been knocked offline and unable to play games for a couple of days also blows. Note, you can go into Offline mode if you know before of the problem does not help...

    I liked the Mass Effect 3 ending

    Well, I disliked the ending but still really enjoyed Mass Effect 3. Everyone has an opinion. I also like SWToR as well. Dragon Age 2 was fun as well as being slightly disappointing because of the reuse of art assets. I am at a stage in my life where I can buy pretty much whatever I want. You...

    Looking for a new MMO to play. Any suggestions?

    Almost all MMO games coming down the pike are going to be action based. Still, the next two are going to start as subs (ESO & Wildstar) so they do not meet your qualifications. SMITE is a Moba but it is much better than most out there due to the third person view & action elements. I would...

    BioWare Dragon Age: Inquisition Video Gives Us a Tour of the World

    Yeah, DA2 felt rushed for me. I still enjoyed the game but the reuse of settings get old quickly. Dragon Age 2 did not come close to the first one or Mass Effect. Still, something to be said about creating a character and making choices along the way.

    World of Warcraft's Character Boosts Now On Sale for $60

    I do not play WoW anymore due to over simplifying of the talent tress, but I do not have an issue with this. These services always existed. Blizzard just gets to keep the money now.

    Shantae Kickstarter

    I have been impressed by WayForward other games. I would highly recomend you give them a spin if you like platformers.
