This isn't getting PS3 games to work on the 360, this is taking PC games and making sure it only works with your DVD player. Or like most DRM, it puts an extra piece between the product and you to "ensure" that people can't use just any product. So think Shell teaming up with Holden to make sure...

You just argued that women are idealised and that's a bad thing. So gaming idealism is still bad. :P On topic: ... This topic is complicated. ;_; Is the idealised man attractive to females (are gyms full over New Years?)? If so then men in games are still objectified. Is it okay...

Soulstorm isn't that bad, you get Sisters and DEldar. :D Chaos are still horribly OP but the Sisters are a nice little anti-Ork/Imp Guard/Tau faction while playing as DEldar is a experiment in how long you can last before your glassy glass cannons die horribly. Flying vehicles made Tau jump...

Steam has that whole "community" thing going on, while GOG has "we're nice", Thief, and no DRM in sight. Long term, GOG looks like winning simply because being nice gets points. The community can switch. Like WoW which dominated the MMO area for years, it's starting to lose out and other...

They're not that bad, their first few albums were pretty good as far as American rock went. Granted, their recent albums are... Well, not the best. But their earlier music wasn't horrible. Anything from Curb, The State, Silver Side Up, or The Long Road could be put in a playlist with Clutch and...

Most folk bands, avant garde, free noise, punk cabaret, The Mars Volta, black jazz, free jazz, classical. Lots of bands deserve more popularity, not everyone is capable of listening to some music. 'shrugs' Other people who are amazing, http://www.gamemusicbundle.com/ The Frozen Synapse guy...

Fixed for you. :P The only game worth comparing to Warlock: Master of the Arcane. On topic, start with Crusader Kings 1, move up to Crusader Kings 2. Then if you enjoy those games, move onto Victoria or Europa Universalis and if you enjoy those games, try Hearts of Iron. Crusader Kings is...

How does this not have a bigger thread? Best gaming bundle on the net.

EA are getting progressively worse in my humble opinion, so you should really play it ASAP before it's equivalent to a Blizzard game. I can't even use the "EA only published it" line since DICE developed it from the start. How about, read this book http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_Light...

Plants vs Zombies? Most platformers aren't that easy, and Portal has that whole up-is-down-or-maybe-sideways thing going on which makes it hard for some people to get into. Also switching your perspective rapidly in quick succession can really throw off someone who isn't expecting it, and even...

If you didn't snip all of it, you'll note I specifically said _in my next sentence_ that Big disclaimer, pays homage to statistics and acknowledges I might not be on the median. For all I know I'm an outlier. This is just 23.5 years of experience which isn't even that much compared to...

Playing at devils advocate is hobby of mine sooo... He thinks it undervalues his stock, making his IP worth less than he set it at. It also tells users that they don't have to buy at full price, thus consistently undervaluing his stock and leading to a constant cycle of cheaper and cheaper...

As one of those quiet ones who used to spend most of their time bailing out lasses from their retard boyfriends, yes. Yes they are attacked to "assholes". It's also true in my subjective experience that calm, well mannered and stable makes for great friend material but you'll constantly be...

You must have missed the Brink boycott because the developers put all their effort into costumes rather than putting in a female character. Or the Red Orchestra 2 "We want Russian female snipers". Feminism is huge in video games, which hilariously means it isn't huge. It's around so much that...

I fully agree, and as a faux Aztec descendent, I need your heart to ensure the sun will rise tomorrow. Now stay still... :P
