    Is MW2's MP balanced?

    I hate to be making a thread about this game due to there being so many, but this question will decide if I purchase or not. With all the new perks and kill streaks is the game still balanced. It seems like there will just be too much going on in MP that the game will get bogged down random...

    Poll: First Thoughts on DA:O

    Played through one origin so far, I already love this game. The story is compelling and well written, the role playing feels really natural. What I like is that there is no good or evil meter, just choices and consequences. Like the elf I rolled hates humans but feels a strong sense of pride...

    Dragon Age Origins. Which platform?

    I would have liked to got it on the PC but my laptop probably couldn't handle it well, so I went with the PS3 version. I originally had the 360 preordered, but according to Gamespot's review the Ps3 has better textures, fuller colors, and faster load times. Apparently the 360 version had to be...

    Are new JRPGs all the same?

    I'm not a huge JRPG player, but I'm pretty sure Lost Odyssey story was pretty unique. I loved the maturity of it, not the average teenage angst hero.

    What Is the Escapist listening to at the moment?

    New Between the buried and me CD, amazing. Also, I love porcupine tree, was listening to Deadwing in the gym today, one of my favorite bands.

    I need to lose weight.

    I went from 240 fat slob going to a decently fit 180 in under a year. Its really simple: Eat smart, don't worry about diets or calorie counting. You know what food are bad for you, and what is healthy. Just choose the healthy options most of the time and treat yourself to junk every once...

    Trick I found for returning new games(game stop)

    I consider myself a pretty honest person, but if I'm spending $60 dollars I want to be happy with the purchase, and not trade in the game for 1/3 of it's value. Sure it is lying, but they can still resell the game at full price, no one's getting cheated. I'm not going to defend it, or argue if...

    Trick I found for returning new games(game stop)

    Maybe I'm just behind the times, but I've been shafted a few times trying to return a new game. I've tried it and was told if it's open they can't take it.

    Trick I found for returning new games(game stop)

    In America that deal is only for used games. It has to be unopened to get a full refund if its new.

    Trick I found for returning new games(game stop)

    So I bought Borderlands for the ps3, after playing for a night I decided I wanted for the 360 instead. So I brought it back and told the guy I bought it for my friends Birthday and he had a 360 not a ps3, then asked for an exchange. No questions asked he took back the ps3 one and gave me a...

    Fable III Could Have Microtransaction Shops

    While I'm tempted to say, "as long as I can get the item w/o purchasing it's ok", but that's the wrong school of thought. Because if this success on a large scale it shows that customers are willing to pay microtransactions, potentially making them common place. Eventually this could lead to...

    Poll: How often do you buy games?

    Just depends. Like I just bought a ps3 so I bought 4 games with it. Money really isn't a factor anymore, its just time and finishing a game before I buy a new one(which I do a lot). Inconsistent for sure, but I probably buy a anywhere from 1-4 a month(I love waiting and picking up games on...

    Biggest problem getting into gaming...

    To the outsider the controller looks intimidating, but I think they just need to sit down and play with it for a bit. Since every button serves a purpose, learning the layout for a newcomer might take a bit of practice but should come very naturally after a session or two. I mean the concept...
