    Destiny Takes GOTY, Confuses Audience, at This Year's BAFTAs

    Last year was pretty disappointing imo. Shadow of Mordor made me especially sad, because I absolutely loved its atmosphere and combat, but the nemesis system was just repetitive and ultimately pointless, and once you realized that, all that you could do was finish its cliche boring story and be...

    Poll: "Benevolent Sexism"...Wait, what?!

    This is not new, nor is it any less dumb the more you hear it. Holding a door open is called "manners", you either have them or you don't (the recipient's gender doesn't matter). Other things are called "obligations", because men and women are ACTUALLY NOT the same thing (shock and awe), so as a...

    New Overwatch Hero Is a Response to Body-Type Diversity Criticism

    Lazy as fuck. This just looks like a girl with the body of fucking Marcus Fenix. I can almost hear the people who designed her murmuring "are we diverse enough yet?" under their breaths. Stop it. If you're not feeling it, stop it. I love weird female characters in mobas/similar games. I love...

    Zero Punctuation: Far Cry 4 - F**k Eagles

    Yes, if you add a 5 second unskippable animation every time they attack you.

    Warlords of Draenor Review: WoW, Nice Expansion

    I started a week late and skipped all the launch problems and my impression of the expansion is positive. Leveling was fun, heroic dungeons are quite challenging if you are not overgeared, challenge modes are great, and there is always something to do. Negatives: The game has quite a few bugs...

    Poll: Should I buy Dragon Age Inquisition?

    I'd wait for a few patches. The controls have issues and the game is pretty buggy. I played it for a couple of hours and then realized that the gender selection was bugged when I made my character, and people started referring to my bearded brute of a character as "my lady". It was quite...

    Expectations for Alien Isolation

    I bought it and it crashes every 5 minutes. Before that, I bought Shadow of Mordor and it crashes every 90 minutes. And before that, I bought the Metro Redux collection and it crashes randomly. What the fuck is going on with games these days? Anyone else have problems with it? PC: i7 4790K...

    Zero Punctuation: D4: Dark Dreams Don't Die

    Fuck yeah, wordplay review. I missed those. Will also be stealing the "metabolizes like a fucking nuclear submarine" bit, if you don't mind.

    Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor 25% Off Deal for the PC

    That Starpoint Gemini 2 offer has apparently expired, which is a shame. I already own the game, but I fully recommend it to anyone who likes Freelancer or the X series. Really awesome game.

    Jimquisition: It's Not A Video Game!

    To me, it's pretty simple. If the only thing you do is walk, or even worse, just look at it, then it isn't a game, and that's worth distinguishing because many people just don't like that method of storytelling (assuming it even has a story) and they should be informed. Gone Home, as much as I...

    Zero Punctuation: Destiny - Always-On Grind

    Wait, Yahtzee doesn't have PS Plus? Isn't that, like, a plumber who doesn't own a screwdriver? Yeah, fuck screwdrivers, fight the power!

    Core Gamers Mostly Male, Casual Gamers Mostly Female, Says NPD

    Yeah, was thinking the same thing. So if I play for example half an hour of Dead Trigger 2 on my phone every night before I sleep, that makes me a "heavy core" player? Would be interesting to see the numbers and spending habbits of especially the people who play 15-20 hours a week or more...

    Is the AAA Console Games Market Heading for a Crash?

    I don't get all this negativity personally. Just because consoles are shit and the greed of some publishers are making them increasingly anti-consumer, it doesn't mean that the people working for them are not still doing phenomenal work. In the end that's all that matters, good games. And we...

    Jimquisition: Corrupt, Censoring, Suicidal Indie Devs

    Well... I mean, any kind of pisstaking can be interpreted as containing some measure of criticism if you really want to force it, but I hope you get my point. Yahtzee's videos have got nothing to do with Best of Steam Greenlight. They are reviews with an emphasis on comedic exaggeration, but if...

    Jimquisition: Corrupt, Censoring, Suicidal Indie Devs

    To be fair, Best of Steam Greenlight is not criticism. It's comedy. It's pisstaking. I'm not saying that justifies abuse of Youtube's system, but when your content consists of taking the piss out of someone else's work without any constructive analysis, then I feel it would be best to be a bit...
