    Poll: Exclusive Games

    If those are the "Cream of the crop" then gaming must suck a lot more than I thought it did.....

    Red Dead Redemption Upsets the Irish

    Well I have to admit I'm pleased to know at least some of them receive a wake up call in the form of public humiliation.

    Poll: Japanese games Misunderstood?

    See now you're just being a weeaboo. read my post before you try and take the moral high ground, or you will just find yourself falling down the stairs. Did you not see me point out that the majority stories from Japan (whether they be in games movies or anime) all follow the same cliches...

    Poll: Japanese games Misunderstood?

    No not really. I'm not an expert on Japanese culture, I'll admit, but I find it hard to believe that in Japan cliches are considered excellent gameplay/story. Now I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. While making at least one female look innocent with a young face while...

    Rumor: Lingerie Model Replacing Megan Fox in Transformers 3

    Don't really care about the transformers movies. Just wanted to say that Megan Fox is shit ass stupid (See: All of her interviews) Can't act to save her life (See: All of her movies) and tries way WAY too hard at the whole nerd thing, which just ends up being patronizing and in places insulting...

    Mass Effect 2 : Favourite and most hated team members.

    Can't choose. Why? because, that game had great characters with absolutely terrible characterization. Who you have in your party makes just about zero difference as there are, like what, five points in the game where a party member will say something during dialogue with an NPC (outside of...

    Red Dead Redemption Upsets the Irish

    Actually Most of us Americans do have a huge boner for the Irish. Not sure why. Historically we seemed to go from hating everything about them to idolizing them pretty abruptly. In all honesty the current media seems to enjoy portraying them as extremely charming handsome party boys who...

    Best time you ever decided to not listen to a review and vice versa

    I can't really think of any times... But to be honest this brings up something a little bit related. As much as I love Zero Punctuation it has had a very irritating adverse side effect, suddenly every user made review has to try and be just like yahtzee. I mean user reviews are never all that...

    Nier To Feature Hermaphrodite

    to be honest the only way the video gaming community can get over the social stigmas of thingsl ike gays or transgendered people or hermaphrodites is if they are actually included in games, the longer game companies sheepishly exclude such characters the more weird including them will be. Gem...

    Things that creep you out/scare you in games that aren't really supposed to be scary

    I grew up with video games, and they have instilled in me an intense phobia of any natural body of water, the deeper it is the worse my fear becomes. even games like Oblivion can terrify me when it comes to the water.

    Vampire: The Masquarade: Bloodlines-Money

    Do the Club confession side quest and choose to kill Borus, Venus' money is a god send (and in later unofficial patches she gives you it more often.) I dunno I'm trying to think of a few quick easy tips but I've honestly played through that game at least ten times, so I know the best way to...

    What games that were bad that you saw potential in?

    And jus twhat were you expecting from it? This is what I really don't get about the boycotters, is like triple the number of guns, double the number of SI inclusion of UI (which admittedly only mattered on certain campaigns.) inclusion of Melee weapons, more equipment, five new campaigns, a...

    Roger Ebert still maintains that video games can't be art.

    I am unsurprised that there are people who are important in other mediums of art who look down on video games. While yes, there are obviously video games that are nothing short of art, video games are still largely seen as juvenile children's toys by older people. It's understandable that...

    Poll: Would multiplayer FPS Games be better without snipers.

    90% of people who try to snipe just do it because they think sniping is "cool" and of course there is the myth that sniping requires skill, which is a load of shit, because it doesn't require any more skill than run 'n gun does (if anything it requires less skill)

    let's debate piracy and the hypocrisy behind it

    Yet again you fail to make any real point. You're trying to argue that the majority of people who pirate games just don't have the money for them (which is still wrong even if it were true which it's not) yet they DO have good computers and connections and consoles.
