    Battlefield 4 event being held March 26th. Who really cares now?

    In terms of multiplayer, Battlefield has way more going for it than COD from what I've seen. BF3 locks my xbox, though, and I'm not interested in EA titles when I have other options in good multiplayer FPS. While I'm excited for Battlefield in the hypothetical, since the team who makes it seems...

    Explain game in 5 sentences or less!

    Portal You're a mute lady who uses a gun that makes two holes you can travel between to solve puzzles while a mean robot makes fun of you.

    Why do so many people not understand how to play a shooter?

    Pubs on objective-based modes are sometimes annoying. I play KF so it's not exactly the same, but a bad random or two can ruin a round really easily by ignoring strategies or not supporting the team. I usually run a private server with a team if it's important that we all communicate and win...

    Button Conditioning Fail Moments

    I almost forgot about those button switches! I remember switching RPG games when I was younger and having constant problems with this. Frustration nostalgia is a bittersweet thing.

    Dad Alters Donkey Kong for His Daughter - With Pauline as the Hero

    Adorable story, this Dad is awesome :) It's cool to see the ways in which parenting have evolved with higher technological knowledge.

    I make my own rules... for fun!

    After I finish Absolution, I'll likely go through and attempt a purist run with no KOs and as few disguises as possible. Recently I've imposed a rule in KF where I will occasionally use off-perk, weird gun combos and try to work out strategies for success with them.

    Button Conditioning Fail Moments

    Games have evolved to have a very standard set of controls for what you do in them, and at least for PC most of them are rather predictable: WASD to move, E to use, M1 to shoot, etc. However, getting too comfortable with one game or games' control scheme can make one little change quite a big...

    Games you like starting, but hate finishing

    Guild Wars 2. After getting to 80 I usually get on now to start a new character and run through their first few story quests and play around with their skills before becoming disinterested in rediscovering the entire map over again.

    Thief AKA THI4F confirmed with a load of new screenshots

    Well the screens look awesome, though I'm wary of any marketing stuff these days. I trust Eidos Montreal though so this might have to be something to upgrade my rig for.

    Poll: Series that deliver consistently good titles

    I've really enjoyed the Hitman series, though I'm currently playing through Absolution so who knows whether that mindset will change soon or not.

    Tomb Raider: Initial Impressions - Not Half Bad.

    Thanks for your thoughts on this. Now I'm definitely getting this game!

    Lack of demos boost piracy.

    I like the OnLive model, thirty minutes gameplay streamed for most titles. Seems like it takes no extra dev effort to build some marketing oriented demo package and doesn't require downloading anything. If we can work on standardizing an internet infrastructure that supports high bandwidth...

    Your most recent gaming challenge

    Getting back into Killing Floor has been a pain. If it's not the small community for Suicidal/Hell On Earth, it's my roughness from not playing for a few months. Personally I'm really tired of practicing and trying to cater my combo kills and other strats to what works best for me only to be...

    Captain Blood, the canceled game I got my hands on today!

    I hope it's good because pirates. I'll have to check it out if you stream it, should be fun to see how it is. I actually also kind of hope it sucks otherwise I'd be mad that I couldn't get a hold of a copy!

    Anyone besides me beginning to cringe at certain terms because of Video Games?

    "OP" is waaaaaaay overused. Everything that has ever killed you is OP. Every time someone gets to the top of the boards is not because of skill, they're just abusing an OP strat, build, whatever.
