    To all the people who think piracy is cool, fine, etc do any of you get paid for creative content?

    I honestly think that game devs are starting to realize that they can no longer monopolize and prey upon gamers with cheap tactics anymore. For over 30 years, people could only buy/play games from cerain places and the prices on those games were completely controlled by the company producing and...

    Characters you hate with a passion.

    1. Kreia - KOTOR 2 (she's just an outright *****-a-roni sandwich)_ 2. Angel Lady - Borderlands (I don't like a ***** that's up in muh face) 3. Jar Jar Binks - SW Trilogy (just 'cos he exists there) 4. Vlad - GTA4 (talk about a prick) 5. Mary Jane - Spiderman Trilogy (the predecessor of...

    Is gaming dead for you?

    Gaming is kinda meh to me. More or less because I'm growing up as a person rather than games potentially getting shittier. As a kid, I would spend all day playing one game. Now, I spend maybe 2-4 hours on a game, then I'm done for the day (possibly stretching out till the next day). The only...

    Fandoms you dislike, of things you like.

    I really really reeeeeally hate anyone that tries to say one type of metal is better than the others or that it's true metal. Personally, as a metalhead myself, I like most types of metal and there's no real way any genre is any more hardcore than the other. It's got different styles, sounds...

    The Felicia Day/Destructoid situation

    Felicia Day is as much a gamer as any 'gamer girl' who think that playing Mario games and having played a Legend of Zelda game when they were a kid makes them qualify for the position. She's probably contributed to gaming the same way she's contributed to being a good actress. Hell, fucking...

    Fixing Misconceptions: Pickup trucks, SUVs, and muscle cars

    Look, both sides are right in a sense. Some Americans, like myself, use trucks for the reasons they were meant for. We haul shit stuff around in it, we off-road when the need comes, and whatever else we need to use it for. Other Americans use trucks to look cool, to make loud noises, and to...

    What do you think about the Furry Fandom

    I'm cool with liking anthro stuff. However, I can't really get into the idea of actually role-playing as a furry (or as anything tbh). I'd rather keep fantasy and reality separate, though there's nothing wrong with expressing your fandom of things. I just don't personally see the need to cosplay...

    MovieBob's thoughts on the ME3 ending controversy

    I honestly agree with Bob in some aspects but differ a bit in others. While Bioware did seem to be turning tricks by giving into the demands of the people who wanted a 'better ending', it doesn't devalue the franchise as art. It's not the most tasteful of artist games, but it still is artful in...

    Would you buy this if you had the cash? - Updated!

    Holy shit, make your room entirely white and get that chair with a black interior. Then dress up like an MIB agent. :P

    Dubbed verse Subbed

    Subbed version. Doesn't matter if the voices are good or not, it just adds more of an authenticity and it makes me feel like I'm absorbing a bit more culture when I listen to the original language. I tend to feel that way whether I'm watching an anime or a regular foreign film. Dubbed can be...

    Favorite Miracle of Sound song?

    1) Binary Divide 2) Joker's Song 3) Normandy 4) Duke, You Used To Be Cool Binary Divide has to be my new all-time favorite because I'm a huge fan of Gav's harsh vocals and I felt the entire song fit the entire storyline behind The Darkness and all of it's elements. Not to mention, he made a...

    What do you want written on your grave stone?

    I want my gravestone to say: "Don't tell the wife I'm here"

    What superpower would you have?

    I'd love to have the powers Jackie Estacado has from the first The Darkness game. I say the game because they never really put the emphasis on how much impact The Darkness has on Jackie in the comics.

    You people are ridiculous

    Eh, it's McDonald's. They'd probably charge you for ketchup packets, straws, and napkins if they could. Plus it's not really worth the bitching for paying 1 measly dollar extra for cheese when you could find better food out in the dumpster of a Motel 6. Anyways, if DLC had story lines that...
