    Zero Punctuation: The Conduit

    There's no such thing. She's a vegetable that somehow managed to garner the support of way too many soccer moms who still think that life could be just like a Lifestyle mini-series if everyone just towed some arbitrary moral line that involved the removal of all free will.

    Square-Enix Facing $5 Million Final Fantasy XI Lawsuit

    i. Isn't disguised as a sale, even the expansion boxes say 'Requires FFXI Online to play' and directly under that statement is "THIS GAME CAN BE PLAYED ONLINE ONLY", and "Additional requirements: Additional monthly fee, and broadband connection" ii. It's a P2P MMO, of course there's a freakin'...

    213: Casualty of Warhammer

    Guilty Pleasure You Least Want To Admit?

    wow or guild wars?

    Warhammer Online, screw both of the other two. Guild Wars: Filled with whining wannabe otaku. Pretty graphics. World of Warcraft: Filled with over 10 million people who like their MMO's to be pure 'easy mode'. Graphics that look like Don Bluth puked all over your screen, then added eyeballs.

    Poll: Overcritical: Female Leads

    Old games you'd want to download

    Suikoden and Suikoden II via XBL would be nice. Of course, that would probably just invite the damned otakufappers to demand the other, horrible sequels to be ported too.

    Only in the good fighters... y'know... SF... Guilty Gear... that's about it. And it's Feb17th, Gxas, not Valentine's Day, sadly.

    Was... was that George Takei as M.Bison? O_o I'm not sure if that's awesome, or omfgstupid. All I know is that I'm still hoping that the US release has JP voiceacting as an option.
