    current souls fans, would an easier souls game make you not want to play it

    If the game has an easy mode, I most likely won't buy it. There's no way they can implement an easy mode without having the regular game negatively affected. Somebody on YouTube by the name of EpicNameBro has a good video about this, can't find it right now though. It's probably been linked in...

    Just about to start Dark Souls, any tips?

    Seriously? It's probably too late, but don't choose the Master Key for your first playthrough. It lets you skip big chunks of the game (not good for a first playthrough)and also gives you early access to tougher areas meant to be challenged later in the game. Whatever you do, don't use a...

    Unpopular gaming opinions

    Nobody claimed their opinion was valid because it was unpopular. This post is completely irrelevant. On topic, I feel that the majority of my opinions go against the consensus, but here is one I feel strongly about: I think that Fallout: New Vegas is better than Fallout 3, and the only...

    Your 5 most disappointing games, 2008-2012

    Crysis 2 - Call of Duty with watered-down nanosuit. Campaign was alright though, but extremely linear compared to the first's. Diablo III - Biggest disappointment for me, not just of this year but of my whole life. Even without the DRM or Auction House it would still be a bad game for me. The...

    Worst review I have seen in a long time (borderlands 2)

    I thought this was going to be somebody getting mad because a reviewer has a different opinion, but then I read "Borderlands 2 falls short because it's missing several key elements you need to have in a 2012 first-person shooter game - most notably, a rich multiplayer online mode. There's an...

    Why are there no Half-Life or Counterstrike clones?

    What? BioShock is more of a watered-down (no pun intended) System Shock 2 (not necessarily watered-down in a bad way like most games though). and Combat Arms is just another military FPS, I've played CS for a very long time and I can tell you Combat Arms feels nothing like Counter-Strike.

    EA "Standing Up for the Industry" by Suing Zynga

    "The roots of what we do as an industry is creative, from the minds of people who sit there and build storylines and characters and mesh it all together ... You take years to do that. And when you see somebody ... take months replicating what you've done, you're upset." This whole thing is just...

    Most devastating loss of a save file

    I am extremely careful so nothing's ever happened except in Resident Evil 5, there was a glitch or something after completing the game where everything was reset, you had to start from the beginning, your save file was overwritten and there was nothing you could do about it. I just sold the game...

    Borderlands 2 "Girlfriend Mode" Helps Noobs Win

    "Girlfriend Mode", making bullets home in on your target, it's perfect. Hilarious, and the fact that everybody is getting angry over a joke makes it even more funny.

    Where is the hype for Counter Strike: Global Offensive?

    The funny thing is that the e-sports guys absolutely hate CS:GO, and they seem to be the main audience of the game.

    Diablo 3 Beta Key Give Away

    The question I had trouble with was the rune one, I didn't want to give up and look it up so I loaded up a Diablo II character and guessed all of the runes I had until I got it. The Facebook one was ridiculously easy.

    Poll: Xbox 360 Pro making a silent beeping noise while playing a game.

    Update: The beeping is still there with other games. What do.
