    Now what they really need is a map editor.

    Demigod Piracy Running High

    It's hard to justify purchasing this game, at least during this stage of its life. First, there is no campaign...at all. That leaves you with skirmishes against AI and playing online. Since I haven't played it, I can't tell you if the old "this is really just meant to be played online only"...

    Doctors Fear 'Epidemic' of Wii Injuries

    Funny, they're talking about the dangers of playing the Wii in relation to movement and other exercises, but the picture shows them holding the Wiimote sideways in the "harmless controller position".

    Achievement Unlocked Game Exactly What It Says

    A game solely about achievements doesn't have badges. Ironic?

    DS Scrabble Teaches Kids Swear Words

    I really don't think it's anything to be concerned about. I had learned 80-90% of English swear words by the time I was in 2nd grade. The kid's fine, and the mother is overprotective.

    Videogame Addiction Is Social, Not Psychological, Says Clinic Founder

    While I agree that what is classified as "gaming addiction" is most often simple social problems, it is possible to become addicted to video games. We generally only think of drug users or alcoholics as addicts when the word is used, but they aren't the limits of addiction. Take, for example...

    Call Of Duty: World At War Loadout Thread

    REPHRASE FOR CLARITY: Yes, I play on 360, and I could increase my sensitivity. This would allow me to change my point of view to where I want to fire more quickly. But, sensitivity does not affect the speed at which the tank's cannon rotates to match my point of view. The perk allows the tank's...

    Call Of Duty: World At War Loadout Thread

    Despite vehemently protesting this game, I had some friends coax me into purchasing it. Turns out, I love the online. Thus, I've decided to make a thread for us to share what loadouts we use online. I'm only rank 14 at the moment, but I'll update my post as my loadouts change. Primary Weapon...

    Professional voice coaching / singing lessons - Is it worth it?

    I'd say skip the lessons. I have plenty of bands I love that don't have vocals that are products of years of lessons. Just because you don't sound like X person doesn't mean that you don't have your own sound that you can pull off. Examples of bands I love with unusual singers: Billy Talent, The...

    Im looking for some techno

    You can't go wrong with Armin Van Buuren. I'll second Pendulum. Pendulum is a bit more Drum & Bass or Jungle but still pretty awesome. Solar Fields is a little more out there, pretty good beats. Lunar is pretty relaxing and very helpful for writing papers. I suggest using www.last.fm. You can...

    I could care less about Koscheck, but I really hope they get Fitch back.

    Bike Hero Will Blow Your Mind

    It was viral marketing. Still pretty cool, but it's corporate. http://kotaku.com/5095091/yes-bike-hero-was-viral-marketing

    Google Closes Not-So-Lively Virtual World

    It was a failure from the beginning. I gave it a shot out of pure curiosity and found myself incredibly bored. I think Google should stick to functionality over frivolity.

    Take-Two Thinks on Subscription Model

    Actually, this idea of theirs works out very well for me when it comes to something like a single player game. I tend to go through games very rapidly, usually within the first two weeks or a month on the outside. Since I usually end up trading my games in within a month (with a few exceptions)...
