    You Will Believe Your Fists Can Fly in This Superman Video

    That's an unfair generalization. I could say the same of almost any other comic book character. Take the Punisher, for instance. For being just a trained but regular non-powered guy he's shrugged off things that would kill an army. Heck, he even came back from the dead at least twice. And...

    Common Sci-Fi tropes that annoy you!

    The Asari shouldn't count. The interesting deal about them is that they're "shape-cheaters". They actually look like a member of whichever race whomever's watching them belongs to. They look human-like to us because we're human, to the Turians, they look turian-like and so on. On topic, I...

    Nintendo Wants Its Cut

    OK, you need to stop talking. Right now. You're only making a fool of yourself by doing exactly what Shamus talked about in the article when he mentioned the apologists. I've been a Nintendo apologist for years, I've defended almost every bad decision they've made before, but this is a...

    How to Fix Electronic Arts

    I honestly don't know where did you get that idea from, but every single thing I've heard the guy say implies the opposite. He's aware of what games are, yes, but that doesn't mean he understands the media at all, or that he actually play games other than to test them for five minutes and blurt...

    What's in a Game?

    Care to explain what you mean by "first installment"? Anyway, I played through the end of "Loneliness" and its author claims he created the "notgame" as a love letter to everyone who has felt loneliness. So, in order to homage people who have felt loneliness, he creates a game that makes you...

    How Massive Multiplayer Should Work

    I'm having the same problem. I want to save money, but Shamus keeps going on and on about how awesome this game is. I hope you know, Shamus, that I'm holding you responsible for when I eventually have to sell all my belongings... Except for the PC and the games, of course. Anyway, OT: This...

    NCsoft Shuts Down City of Heroes

    Damn. Just when I was about to give this game a second chance. Didn't get much into it the first time because I had some serious trouble with the installation and then I lost the character I had created. This is one of the reasons I prefer not to get invested in MMOs. It's a Damocles sword...

    Most devastating loss of a save file

    I've actually lost so many savegames in my entire life I would find it hard to point out or even remember which one was the worst. I'd say it would be Chrono Trigger, since recently I lost a very advanced save file for it (accidentally erased by me), but it was like the seven thousandth time I...

    So escapists... what's your porn name?

    Tony Ramírez. Huh, it does sound like a porn name.

    Hulk liked the ME3 ending

    Well, I read that review (not all of it, just as much as I could stomach in that absolutely awful writing style) and I have to say I disagree with him. Now, I'm one of those who despised the endings of ME3, but that's not why I disagree. I've actually read some comments by people who liked...

    Superman gets too much shit (And underrated heroes in general)

    One of the reasons he's disliked is because people have still in mind the Silver Age version of him. Even though for every other character people think in their current form (for instance, when discussing Batman people will talk about the dark-brooding version and few will say they like him for...

    Spider-Teased

    I don't think he's Electro nor Mysterio or any other of those villains. This guy has to be a schemer, a master planner (hint, hint), so it has to be a big guy, not just a familiar character, but someone who is on top of things. Now, for obvious reasons he can't be the Kingpin, so I'd vote...

    BioWare Did Right By Us

    Well, I've always disagreed with the notion that Mass Effect 3 is a great game up until the last five minutes. I think it's a mediocre game spiced with spectacular parts. Everything pertaining to the main plot is rubbish at best and insulting at worst, but the side-stories? Those are...

    Your Favorite Tower Defense game

    Really? The game seemed fairly easy to me. But I guess if it's not a style of game you like it can be harder. I, though, think it's one of the best and most approachable TD games in existence. I also really love Defense Grid. Revenge of the Titans is good, but it gets hard. I have played...
