    I can't watch" black comedies "anymore. (Edit: Ethnicity, not humor)

    For the record: I believe you are incorrect. My correction of his phrasing has absolutely nothing to do with his reasoning, logic, or premise. I merely pointed out his inaccurate use of the terminology. I did not proclaim him to be to wrong as a result of his inaccurate wording. The...

    I can't watch" black comedies "anymore. (Edit: Ethnicity, not humor)

    These gentlemen are correct, that is nowhere close to the actual understood definition of black comedy. I think the word you are implying in your phrasing is Black People Comedy. I'm not sure if this particular omission was due to an oversight or an intentional attempt to avoid offense. If I...

    Latest Warhammer 40000 game is in 'Beta', by the Devs who gave us Ride to Hell: Retribution

    Absolutely, a commendable find that deserves to be an actual news article on the website. More people need to hear about this so as not to accidently support such maligned practices. I'm quite disappointed with all this. I saw the 'game' in the steam featured tab and checked it out hoping for...

    PlayStation Vita Reportedly Limits Apps to 100

    Is this a problem you actually foresee yourselves running into? Is it necessary to constantly have over a hundred applications/games installed on the machine? Mind you, any game you've ever purchased from the PS Store (Including free games downloaded during a PSplus month) can be reinstalled...

    Diablo III Dev: Adventure Mode is Worth The $40 Price Tag

    Wait a second, can you play the console version offline then? Or must you still connect to battle.net servers?

    Owners of PS4s and Xbox Ones: Thoughts, Feelings, and Judgements

    That's pretty interesting. I'm not sure why I'm surprised, but it seems that despite the doomsaying and unrest with the ideas and policies of Microsoft this time around, they've still put out a respectable product that's garnering fans and attention. I don't think I'm actually going to end up...

    Owners of PS4s and Xbox Ones: Thoughts, Feelings, and Judgements

    I wanted to do a pulse check and see how any escapists that picked up the newest consoles are feeling about them, particularly the Xbox One. I was finally able to pick up a PS4 at my local GameStop and I'm having a great time with it. I like the UI changes, the way everything looks and...

    Poll: New Forum Rules: Yay or Nay?

    I think that the necro stuff might still be a bit vague. If memory serves, there have been a few threads that moderators have allowed to come back from the dead saying that they 'still apply and are relevant to current interests'

    So Fox bought the rights to a Magic The Gathering Movie...

    Ravnica has come back twice, but if I had to guess then the movie would be about the planeswalkers with the most coverage nowadays, not the old Weatherlight stuff from the past. Liliana, Garruk, Jace, Ajani, Chandra, probably Nicol Bolas due to his influence and maybe a few others that have...

    Escapist Steam Who's Who! (UPDATED)

    UPDATE: I asked mods for their blessing to bring this back to the front page to try and gain more folks' input. That said, when you make your post, please be sure to include your gaming interests, be it competitive DotA 2 playing, Team Fortress 2 or just having friends around to talk shop with.

    What are you playing right now?

    That's good to hear, to be honest I was interested in picking up a PS4 soon so I could play it but I was put off by all the comments people had. I'm glad to hear that it's still making people happy, I might reconsider now. Redlin, a lot is an understatement. You are putting some serious time...

    Xbone Kinect used to troll CoD players.

    That was aggravating, it just grates on your ears. The reactions were amusing though, particularly the older folks who seemed a little less prone to reacting rashly. I hope to see more like this.

    Poll: Skyrim, now available for PS4 and Xbox One.

    I'm glad they're doing it, I don't think everyone is going to play it has played it already. Letting people play it on their new consoles is fine, and it adds successful games to the library. I wonder the price though.
