    So Cracked used one of my images...

    Pretty sure the use of a picture like this falls under "Fair Use", which is kind of an open and shut situation. there wouldn't be even the slightest risk of a trial or a settlement. Probably wouldn't even need to meet with a lawyer for this one.

    Does love exist...

    Saying love isn't real "because it's just chemicals in the brain" is like saying pain isn't real "because it's just nerves telling your brain something is wrong". Saying that to someone in pain isn't going to change anything. Just like telling me the feelings I have for my son "aren't really...

    Which Tabletop Games Contain True Terror? These Six

    Battlestar Galactica is "overdesigned"? How so?

    Donnie Darko Doesn't Make Any Sense *Spoilers*

    As Ceebod pointed out, I think one of the issues you had was reading some ridiculous theories on what happened in the film. Donnie has no "magic powers" (though his changing perception of the world might make it seem like he does). There is no "black hole". There's nothing wrong with not...

    Do people not realize games aren't $60?

    Then you're not buying it. You're renting it at a ridiculously steep price.

    So...any good games with Werewolves in them?

    All my picks have been chosen already, but I'll mention them again. Sang-Froid - Tales of Werewolves: an excellent tactical game all about werewolves. Vampire: Bloodlines: As someone above mentioned, you only encounter a werewolf once, but it's epic. The rest of the game is great too...

    Escapist Community: Help me enjoy games again.

    I'm guessing this fear of failure is also present in your everyday life as well? I would seek therapy. I'm not kidding, nor am I trying to be insulting. We all need help like this every once in a while. What you're describing sounds like the kind of thing that will get in your way the rest...

    I just don't like The Last Of Us

    The Last of Us deserves all the praise it got, in my opinion, but as with all games that get a lot of praise the people who weren't into it were especially vocal about it. There are plenty out there. No game is universally beloved. Just the way it goes.

    Well, as we just found out, it's VERY possible for someone to miss it. :)

    What A Scoop! Settlers of Catan Publisher Making Newspaper Game

    JonB I'm here every other day or so and this is maybe the second time I've ever seen board games mentioned. I believe you when you say you have a tabletop section, but it's sorely lacking in exposure. Need any help with it?

    What A Scoop! Settlers of Catan Publisher Making Newspaper Game

    I have to admit, I'm a little confused about this "article". Mayfair games has published dozens of games unrelated to their Settlers series, and many other games companies publish great games nearly monthly. Why does the pending release of these particular games merit any sort of mention...

    Is Shovel Knight worth playing?

    You list a lot of great games in that genre that you simply didn't enjoy. Shovel Knight is a great game. So, no. I don't think you would enjoy it. :-P

    In The Last of Us, Joel Had It Right

    THANK you. I wonder how many of these people who brand Joel as "evil" have kids. I'm not saying he made the "right" choice, but I had no problems understanding the choice he made.

    So, I've finally given Bioshock Infinite a chance. [SPOILERS]

    We're talking about two different things here. Comstock needed Elizabeth, or thought he did, because he knew he needed a daughter of his own bloodline to continue his work. I think he came to this conclusion by looking through various tears, though it's been a little while since I've played...
