    The rampant Sexualization in videogames

    The significant difference between male sexualization and female sexualization is that both feed into fantasies of men: big tittied women with nice asses and little clothing is a male fantasy. Big muscled, chiseled jaw-line, deep voiced men is a power fantasy that every guy at some point wishes...

    Consoles Are Holding Gaming Back

    Seriously, this is why I can't stand PC gamers sometimes. Fuck graphics. As long as the game doesn't look like shit, I don't care if the arm hair is animated on a character. Consoles are there for people who don't want to deal with all the tech elements of PCs, and just want to plug in a game...

    Zero Punctuation: The Last of Us

    Play the game. Eventually she'll get a gun and will fire if you start a firefight, she helps you clear a courtyard with a large amount of guys in an open area (which makes stealth very difficult,) she will give you health packs if you can't craft one and are low on health, optional...

    The Microtransactor!

    Neither is a presumption a good argument either. As much as you, most of the Escapist, or rather, most of the gaming community like to vilify EA, they're not stupid. If you honestly think that ripping off people to the extent that you described is a sound business practice then you're naive. EA...

    The Microtransactor!

    WHY is this such a ridiculous issue for people. Hell, I praised the microtransactions in Dead Space 3 because it's so innocuous that you can completely ignore it. Don't want to spend time searching for parts? (Which to me partly defeats the purpose of Dead Space) Then just spend a buck and get a...

    Gay Olympics....Wtf!!

    You want to know why they're doing this? Check the first bout of comments, THEY'RE ALL GAY JOKES. Way to discuss something like this intellectually Escapists. Now to answer your question, and correct a false assertion you made, you need to understand that just because it's a gay olympics...

    Research Finds Negative Effects in Violent Videogames

    Can we just stop with these articles? Every single time something like this gets posted it's always by some university saying the exact same thing every single time. Then, all the comments just turn into a giant circlejerk about how video games don't cause violence any more than other media and...

    I don't understand male virgin shaming.

    Sometimes I feel like you're the only rational person on this site, great point and a lot less hostile than mine.

    I don't understand male virgin shaming.

    Hey! Hey everyone! Can you reaffirm my social anxiety by telling me that being a virgin is totally okay?! Please?! God I'm so lonely... Sarcasm off, fuck these kinds of threads. I'll admit that I'm a virgin but it's not by choice, I just have more difficulty picking up women compared to my...

    Researcher Links Media and Violence

    What is the point of this? Everyone knows and accepts that there is a correlation between violent video games and increased aggression. But, as my Psychology teacher was quick to hammer into our heads, correlation DOES NOT prove causation. What this guy is saying has been addressed and discussed...

    Yup, 9GAG still sucks ass.

    E3: Third Party Support for Wii U Includes Mass Effect 3

    Except the default choices are fucking TERRIBLE and give you probably the worst way to start off the 3rd game regarding war assets and story progression.

    Halo 4 - Underwhelming?

    Because The Escapist community as a whole can't reason.

    Halo 4 - Underwhelming?

    Well aren't you a witty character.

    Halo 4 - Underwhelming?

    Were the levels ever that open? The game got rather linear at points and before you mention the Island level in Halo 1 remember that there were specific places you had to fight the enemies in to begin with. And don't get me STARTED on those awful corridor sections you had to backtrack through...
