    Games you'd like to see ported to the PC

    PC needs some good RPGs. I would really like to play Ni No Kuni, but I'm not buying a PS3 to play it.

    What, if anything, would make you pay?

    I don't have to time to dedicate to an MMO. I don't like the idea of paying every month for a game.

    Poll: Would You Push The Button? (Moral Dilemma)

    Nope. I will never be responsible in willingly taking another life for simple profit.

    Fellow men of the Escapist: How much facial hair do you keep on?

    I'm not allowed to have a full beard due to my job as a firefighter/paramedic. I have to be able to have all my masks form a seal around my mouth and nose. So I usually keep a little bit of scruff because I think I look best with it. I Do have a goatee as well. I don't like being completely...

    Cheat Codes: what happened and do you care?

    I miss cheat codes. I loved just throwing on god made and killing everything in sight. I usually tried to wait until I finished the game though.

    What Would You Do If Money Were No Object

    I would travel, record more music and hire a full band to play with me so I could do live shows. But I think the most important thing, I would keep working. I love my job. I'm a firefighter paramedic, and it is what I will always do. I would buy my agency some new rigs and equipment, and make...

    Take heed, for the news dark and full of errors.....

    In the 50s it was comics, in the 60s it was rock music, in the 70s it was heavy metal, in the 80s it was DnD, in the 90s it was death metal. Now it is video games.

    Poll: A question for the guys . Sex on the first date, Yay or nay?

    No I wouldn't want to. If I'm just getting to know you, I don't want to have sex with you right away. I like to give it time. Besides, I've only slept with girls when I was in a committed relationship with them, not just going out on a date.

    Poll: Have you ever been hit on by someone of the same sex?

    Yeah, though it never bothered me. In fact I was a bit flattered. When my old death metal band was playing with another band, their guitarist was hitting on me. It took me a little bit to catch on that he was doing so. I finally let him know that I was straight and that I wasn't interested in...

    Are there any college professors on the Escapist who might lend their opinion on this situation?

    While I'm not a college professor, I am an instructor for EMS and fire education. I have a pretty strict policy on attendance for my classes, as well as having classwork done when it should be done. While I think he was being a dick for not doing across the board punishment, I have to say it was...

    Most Infuriating Book(s) You've Ever Read?

    There was a recent book written by a neurosurgeon called Proof of Heaven. Anyone who understands hypoxia on the brain, and what happens during cerebral vascular accidents and/or transient ischemic attacks understands why people can sometimes feel like they are outside the body, or have intense...

    2013 And Racism in America?

    I live in a rural area in Michigan, and I can tell you a lot (not saying all or even most, but a lot) of people are very racist around here. I hear it all the time. I hear racial slurs. I hear the stupidest crap ever about the US president (if you don't like him or his policies, fine, that is...

    Question on PC and Console Games

    Emulation? Not that easy. PS3 and 360 games are not yet able to be emulated. But, there is no reason there is any game that cannot be ported to a PC.
