    Opinion: The Digital Future Might be Broken

    They can ask that much because they have a virtual monopoly on the platform. I love steam, but I do worry that there is not a good alternative.

    Moar Food!: Faux Pas that drive you crazy.

    I understand that, but every mouthful is also precisely the same, which I personally don't like. I prefer bit of variation. Especially if there are multiple different dishes, then mixing really shouldn't be done. Another thing nobody should do with food is microwaving cereals. I saw someone...

    Moar Food!: Faux Pas that drive you crazy.

    Just take a bite from your sate and then some rice. But mixing rice and sauce... that's just wrong.

    Moar Food!: Faux Pas that drive you crazy.

    Saté with saté sauce (peanut sauce) and rice is in fact very tasty! Unless you are like my father or a friend of mine who: 1 eat the saté, leaving a lot of the sauce 2 start mixing sauce and rice until it is a homogeneous brown-with-white-particles mess 3 eat it I usually just stare...

    Earliest Gaming Memories

    Trying to eat all the berries in yoshi's home in Super Mario World. It was one screen, with a large tree like thing and about 8 or 9 berries, and I wanted all those berries. Some of those were just out of reach and sometimes when trying to get the last one, I would accidentally jump out of the...

    From awesome to crap in one move

    Both of these shows were made into an anime while the manga was still ongoing. So after a while the animators have to produce the episodes without anything to base it on... So I guess it's logical that the ending are slightly weird. Doesn't fix the show, but makes it slightly better understandable.

    What separates the hardcore and casual crowd

    This is actually a very nice definition of hardcore v.s. casual games. I always wondered how some players were branded casual, while they basically sink more time in tending to their crops than I sink in exploring and reading every single book I come across in Skyrim.

    Do you own games you haven't played yet?

    Amnesia: the dark descent Not that I don't have time to play it, just that I rarely have time during the day...

    "Wait, I can do that?"

    Wait... you can HOLD the interaction button, and command them, without going through the whole dialog menu?! I never knew... For that matter, I didn't realize there was a difference between pressing and holding that button.

    Behold the Skyrim Online Mod

    Like a lot of people here, I don't think any elder scrolls game ever needed any multiplayer. Especially MMO-like multiplayer would be terrible for a game like skyrim. But on a small scale, say 2-4 players, I think it could have some potential. Taking down a badass dragon with your buddies...

    For the older gamers (10+ years of gaming), what is your GOTD (game of the decade)?

    The metroid prime trilogy, these were amazing games, and brilliantly beautiful especially considering that they were gamecube games. I also think they're one of the nicest looking titles on the wii. I'm afraid that says more about the wii than the actual game.
