    Sony America Boss Says Gaming Is Like Wine - The Good Stuff Costs More

    Well, as a Dan Murphy's employee in Melbourne with aspirations as a fine wine expert, I can comfortably say BULL FUCKING SHIT. Seriously, some of the best wines we have in our store are under $15AUD, so the thought that any level of quality comes from a high price-point, especially in the...

    The Biggest Joke in Gaming

    Well, as a Dan Murphy's employee in Melbourne with aspirations as a fine wine expert, I can comfortably say BULL FUCKING SHIT. Seriously, some of the best wines we have in our store are under $15AUD, so the thought that any level of quality comes from a high price-point, especially in the...

    Gun advocate mocks Australia's tough laws

    First off, as an Australian I can honestly say that I'm glad we "aren't on the same planet", otherwise I'd have to break out my 'I-don't-want-to-live-on-this-planet-anymore' .img. Secondly, I don't like John Howard. Never have, never will, but goddamn do I respect the man, because he got shit...

    The Big Picture: Shock Treatment

    Always good to get this sort of thing summed up and explained, since Bioshock Infinite hits you out of nowhere so fast that it's hard to take it all in, or even believe what we just saw. I like what I got out of this video though. The entire Mass Effect trilogy did the same thing as this...

    Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 Cancels Dismemberment DLC

    YES! I knew someone else would notice it! And for the record, both guys missing their arms are missing the wrong arm.

    Jim Sterling says PS+ humiliates the game industry

    I dunno man, I have both as well (I have a PS3 and my brother has the 360) and I've never seen a difference online on comparable games. For example, I literally can't tell the difference between connections for just about any CoD on either system, and even with the respective console's flagship...

    Now that Fallout 4 is being teased, what would you like to see in the next installment?

    Actually, my friends and I were talking about this the other night during a mega RP session. What we really want is a realistic nuclear apocalypse! Plants wouldn't just disappear! If I remember correctly, there was a town in Russia that was exposed to nuclear bombing during the Cold War...

    Gift idea: Worst PC Game ever

    Not even kidding, my friends and I all got this out of a bargain bin as a joke and played it at a recent LAN party. It was the most fun we had all night, partially because we were screwing about, and partially because one of our friends went full-bore and made a massive farm. It sure did piss...

    Gift idea: Worst PC Game ever

    This thread can only be settled by one game, and that game is Country Justice: Revenge of the Rednecks. I just love this review of it. The reviewer plays it so straight with such a deadpan delivery, it's just brilliant.

    Skyrim Game of the year?

    I'm gonna go ahead and say that yes, it probably will win a lot of GOTY awards, but it's not my choice so far. Honestly, I'm getting way more fun out of Borderlands 2 then I've ever gotten out of Skyrim. BL2 is everything you could possibly want in a sequel, building and perfecting, and in some...

    So... Black Mesa

    My Thoughts when meeting Kliener for the first time.: "Oh my god Kliener! You look so young!!" OT: Yeah I've very impressed right now, I've just played past the first sections and am making my way back to the surface and everything I've seen so far has made my jaw drop. Y'know when you're...

    Talk about a game that you like but you're sure no one else knows about

    Okay, so I only found out about it recently, along with the developers, who seem like really cool guys, but Luftrauser is a little flash game they made as a proof-of-concept for their upcoming game Luftrausers. http://not.vlambeer.com/luftrauser/ It's a pretty awesome little score attack...

    Define "A Well Writen Gay Character" in Gaming.

    Honestly, I'd say that Cortez is a great example. What should define a gay character as good is what would define any other character as good, which is their character, not their sexuality. Of course a character can have sexuality, it's just a matter of balancing that with the rest of the...

    So what is the advantage of a console?

    That. . . Is an extremely good point! I never even considered that. I have beanbags at my place and playing my PS3 whilst hanging back is infinitely more relaxing than sitting at my computer. Other than that, I think it's just a personal preference. I personally love having a controller in my...

    Can you beat him? Akinator Web game

    I've done this before. How the fuck did it guess Jory Cassel from Game of Thornes??? His description fits literally dozens of characters in that universe!!
