    The History Of Gaming Recapped In Four Minutes

    more of a history of controllers. Hence skipping the PS2 cause it's controller is pretty much the same. I didn't see any X-Box at all though, which strikes me as odd.

    Codemasters Loses Three Million Dirt 3 Steam Codes

    From what I read, steam isn't banning anyone, just deleting the game from accounts. IDK if that's true or not though. It probably wasn't the most reliable of sources.

    Jimquisition: The Beautiful Irony of PC Gaming

    This video is not what I was expecting based on the title. It is so much better. I'm gonna have to say I disagree with you though. All of those games you listed looked pretty damn good graphically. Sure, they aren't demanding on hardware, and might not be photo-realistic, but they still look...

    Razer Unsheathes the Blade

    Except while the Bugatti Veyron is the fastest car in the world, this is nowhere near the performance of an equivalently priced Alienware, Origin, or Sager laptop. Sure, it's nice and thin, but it still weighs more than an equivalently specced 15 inch (and those are considerably cheaper). What...

    Feed Dump: Kebabs, Capybaras and Cows

    But noone says leftenant. You even said so during desert bus. I should know, I was there. I'm pretty sure I even asked.

    Say Something Nice About Another Country

    I hear TV prices are at rock bottom out in the UK. Well, maybe just in London.

    Poll: A small dilemma regarding drug possession

    I'm gonna have to agree with you on this one. By reporting them to the police you aren't helping them. AT ALL. You're just screwing up their life worse with most likely jail time, and if not, big fines. If you really wanna help, get them some HELP, not more trouble. Getting the police involved...

    DICE Details Console Compromises in Battlefield 3

    The way MAG did it was different though. As far as I'm aware, they run the game much like an MMO would be run, putting almost all of the processing strain on the servers and using clever little things to separate the player population to keep any one area from having more than a console could...

    The Old Republic Collectors' Edition Might Cost You $210

    Lifetime subscriptions on the games that offer them cost that much. If that was part of the deal, it'd be worth it. As it is, I see nothing in there making it worth half that price.

    What Class Do You Play In MMO's?

    High DPS usually. I love a good glass cannon. This means I'm usually some sort of mage. I actually really like melee dps if it's done well, but I don't like typical rogue classes that are usually offered. Herald of Xotli was super fun when I played AoC, probably my favorite class still, even if...

    No mod tools for Battlefield 3

    Probably not better, but at least as good as, and they do want people to actually pay for their inevitable dlc. It's a shame, really.

    Your "I'll get back to it" game...

    Pretty much every game in my collection. I keep buying games, playing them for about a week, and buy a new game before I finish it. So there are very few games I've completed, and many I've played less than half of. A lot of those games I really want to play and finish, I just never do. Some of...

    If I didn't like Fallout, will I like Skyrim?

    Normally, I'd say yes, but your comments made me say otherwise. I have a feeling you just don't like western RPGs. There are a bunch of more linear wRPGs, but they still all boil down to equipment (many less so though) and dialogue. Cut-scenes don't make that list.

    Poll: The TF2 Insult

    TF2 has been screaming Free to Play since the MannConomy update. I've barely played since then (honestly I was tiring of the game before then), and no longer care, but at least they have some reason to charge for their stupid shit. I used to log in and play for quite a bit after each new update...
