Mainstream gamer's attitude: Stop liking what I don't like! Niche gamer's attitude: Stop liking what I like! Two sides of the same coin, really. And just like any other aspect of life, if you are letting other people's opinions dictate your opinions on something, you are doing it wrong.

I don't know why, but seeing the same gif twice in one post got me laughing pretty hard. It actually looked a lot like this: OT: Eh, I don't really care anymore. I'm reminded of an abusive husband who's all, "Oh baby you know I only hit you cuz I love you, but I promise I can change!" Of...

There is truth to that, I know I fidget with my hands a lot, whether I'm nervous or not. Like I'll be sitting at home watching tv, and i'll be tapping my thumbs together, or wiggling my feet, or stroking my beard. In public i have to make a conscious effort to not fold my arms as I know it's an...

Hey everyone, this question has been nagging at me for a while now. So, a little background first. I'm thirty two years old, straight white male, and gaming is my main hobby. I have been what's known as "The quiet type" for as long as I can remember. Even as a kid with few inhibitions, I...

Yep, too bad it happened outside of 'murica, at close range, and he didn't die immediately. And seriously, if I ever do anything as stupid and irresponsible as that and die as a result, you all have my permission to point and laugh about it, Nelson style.

For me it really depends on the situation. If I got "friend zoned" because I never got up the nerve to ask her out, I can accept that's my own fault and continue being friends. If I ask a girl out and she says, "No, but we can be friends" it may sting a little, but I can be friends. I did...

With Visual Novels I feel the first playthrough should be blind, and whatever happens, happens. That is your "canon" for lack of a better term. After that, if you want to google every variation or get the perfect ending or whatever, go for it. Of course, I'm referring to games like Heavy Rain or...

To me, Topher as Venom WAS a travesty. He's just not intimidating, and poor writing never helps. However, Topher as Eddie Brock was highly enjoyable and probably the most redeeming aspect of the movie to me. Thankfully, Brock got far more screen time than Venom. Sorry Bob, my opinion on SM3...

Now, I'm no business expert but what you are talking about has nothing to do with the article. He's not saying his company runs on consensus or that there is no structure or hierarchy. He's saying he doesn't want people to focus too much on one skill set because the next project they work on may...

I make this complaint when important details are left out in the transition. It can't be helped when cramming a 900 page book into a 2 hour movie, but it can be very noticable. Still, most of those complaints boil down to preferring one interpretation over the other. But comparisons will...

I used to get so mad at the people who complained about the lack of extra features in a given game. Saying it would be nice to have is one thing, but lack of is imo not a valid complaint. - New game +: So, you are angry that you can't godstomp lv1 goblins with your ultimate dickpunch spell...

Only a handful of consoles have ever had BC and one even took it away. Sucks, but it's hardly a deal breaker. Besides, as I get older, i'm finding my older games less appealing. Not sure why.

I bought season passes for Borderlands 2 and Bioshock infinite, and I regret them both. While they are both good games, neither held my interest long enogh to care about playing the dlc (if and) when it actually came out. I paid for content and i still don't know if it's any good, and probably...

As someone who bought a ps3 when it was $500 and had hardly any games, I can confidently say it is more worthwhile than ever! The ps4 will most likely be my system of choice next gen, but I'm still going to wait until it gets a few games that interest me.

My jaw doesn't drop very often. Well played, Rockstar, well played. It seems almost too ambitious though. At the very least, i predict a few patches down the line. Still hyped as hell though.
