I think it's really sad, I like spoony a lot more than most on that site. It seems completely unfair how some of the others have treated him when his issues are a well known thing at this point. He pretty clearly wasn't being serious in the first place and it's horrifying to see a bunch of...

I'm honestly surprised Bob did what amounts to a promotional for this series. No reasonable person will deny that games tend to be overwhelmingly sexist, and nobody who thinks they aren't is going to be tuned in. Frankly, I see the whole thing as a huge scam. It would be one thing if she was...

Technical skill isn't a prerequisite to making good music, although I would say it's a huge advantage and allows for much better music. That said, you really probably aren't looking at the right genres, most progressive or neo-classical stuff is pretty technical. If you aren't opposed to extreme...

Of course the Youtube community is full of jackasses, that's unsurprising. It is surprising how this is being put up as a necessary message though. Simply put, everyone I know who is reasonable enough to say, appreciate a feminist critique of gaming culture, is already aware of the issue. Sexism...

Glados of course, i love a good sense of humor

Pulp fiction, for both. It's really well shot, written and acted. The characters are great and seem like actual people. It's fun as all hell to watch

I've really liked a lot of the Death Grips stuff, especially Beware has some of the best "darker" lyrics i've heard. "Nature knows not of mercy, to pray is to accept defeat"

I'm a big fan of really atmospheric shooters like STALKER and Metro, but i also like extremely fast paced twitchy stuff like Unreal 2k4. I tend to not really like any of the poll options, since they all fall somewhere in between.

The hotel in Call of Cthulhu, Creepiest and I would argue one of the best moments in gaming all together.

I once watched a movie called Life is Beautiful. The whole first half is a fun comedy, then the second half is all about destroying these characters you like so much and methodically crushing your soul.

I would believe that GOW is satire based on the first game, but all the over the top set pieces in the other 2 really break that creepy depressing mood. Also I wouldn't give Gears of War much credit, because most of the thematic and narrative elements seem to have been emulated from the...

I would essentially agree with this exactly, but I don't think a character necessarily needs to change, merely struggle with the the opportunity to for better or worse. For instance Bateman in American Psycho never really changed, but I'd consider him well developed because by he end he has...

I would consider Steve Jobs more of a marketing guy anyway, he didn't really take the technology places it wouldn't have gone anyway, he just dressed it up nice for everyone. More mainstream personal computing was certainly a good thing but not "2nd best innovator of all time" good. Also...

I actually own Avenged Sevenfold albums, at this point I only really listen for nostalgia's sake, but they stand out as being the most melodramatic angsty thing in my collection by far, and it's a bit embarrassing.

You didnt even pick CoB's best bad cover! But if were being serious Mastodon is like, the best band ever
