Hello, I'm looking for games in XBLA or PSN co-op to play with one or two friends. We can't play IRL together because we live too far apart. We all have very varied tastes when it comes to gameplay genre, but we all play pretty much everything between Bejeweled to Fallout to Alien Swarm. I'm...

Silmarillion would work very well as a TV miniseries. I've hoped to see with the production values of LOTR since the Fellowship premiere night, since the book is in some ways superior to LOTR (characters, for example.)

Ooh. Sounds exciting! Very interested.

I was just bothered because I also wanted light-hearted and fun result what every other result seemed to be, that's all. I wanted ponies, not a big snide image with a big snide flavour text and a big snide badge on my Escapist profile saying I'm Pretentious :(

I stopped playing MMOs this year. This was after a period of time when I found myself playing alone more and more first in WoW last year, then in LotRO in spring. I have played online for 10 years, but I won't be bothered anymore. People weren't always nice, or particularily good players, but...

Pizza for breakfast works best if it's the leftovers of a takeaway you didn't finish the night before. The right beverage to go with it is coke from a bottle you left open all night, so it tastes flat.

The Escapist is my favourite and only game journalism I read (paper and electronic) since so far I've felt the articles address me. My local paper game journalism is riddled with game reviews bordering on rabid frothing fanboy addressing his guild IRC channel. The magazine's in-house WoW column...
