    Disabled Girl Dating Sim Katawa Shoujo Finally Available

    Having downloaded and tried this after reading the article, I have to admit they did an excellent job making a very human protagonist who I've had no problems empathizing with after an hour of gameplay. I wonder if some of the people who helped make this had disabilities? Maybe they thought...

    The Psychology of Playing MMOs

    I quit playing WoW, then got into the Star Wars beta, and was unimpressed. The number one thing that made me say "meh"? It was still an MMO. That sounds like a silly point, yet it was true nonetheless. In quitting WoW, I had carefully thought about what it was that made me want to quit and...

    Finer Points: Part One

    It would be nice to get more people to understand the difference between a permanent and spells on the stack and how those two things are different in regards to keyword abilities that affect permanents. Shroud, hexproof, and protection from blue are not valid foils against counterspells.

    The Ghosts of D&D: Past

    I am hoping this all moves towards a call for more development of games (both P&P and electronic) in the spirit of the OGL. Any game that allows users to create their own content gets giant thumbs up. Allowing them to make money off the work they put into creating content for the game would be...

    Greatest Fantasy/Sci - Fi Series? (Books)

    Larry Niven's Ringworld series is on the steep side of epic sci fi. Isaac Asimov's sci fi universe full of robots and psychohistory is also grand.

    Book Recommendations? You know the things with words...

    I read Anathem by Neal Stephenson recently, it was an excellent "hard" sci-fi novel. Not the usual fare one would expect when thinking of the genre. Actually, I recommend anything by Neal Stephenson if you can follow some of his more eccentric characters, such as Lawrence Pritchard...

    What Would Dragon Taste Like?

    Having sampled many a critter, I would hazard a guess that dragon tastes like dragon. On that note, I am sad I have no ready source of kudu to feast upon. Best tasting animal, ever. Maybe one of those ranches down in Texas... If dragon tasted like kudu I would be the most accomplished...

    Favorite Game of 2011 Survey!

    Binding of Isaac is game of the year for me, hands down. I've enjoyed many of the games on that list, but not a single one thrilled me and got me to lose track of time the way Binding of Isaac could. I could lose track of time in several other games, but often I would come out of it feeling...

    Google's Chrome Browser Used More Than Firefox

    I believe I too use that add-on. I tried Chrome for the length of time it took me to realize a similar add-on was not also available there, but then I realized why and thought "Oh my goodness they are the next evil empire."

    Poll: Sci-Fi vs. Fantasy,who wins?

    As I recall from the comic book series Fable, it was technology beating magic. Not even sci-fi, just modern stuff. The point is even made several times through the series that gunpowder weapons in general trump magic. Dragons lose to fighter jets. I am pretty sure gods get jacked up by...

    Catherine Review

    I am not sure I want to see the family that would sit down together to play this, yet I cannot stop trying to imagine them. Catherine is giving me horror vibes before I have even played it! Impressive.

    Open Letter to Duke Nukem PR

    A completely justified response. Publishers cannot expect the review process to strictly function as additional advertising. If there are that many awful reviews, perhaps something is amiss.

    Worst Story in a game Ever

    Xenosaga has a fairly terrible story. I liked episode 1, but then in 2 and 3 they had taken a left turn that I missed. I maybe could have gotten back on board if there was Space Jesus, and he was a dinosaur. But I really believe Star Ocean: Till the End of Time has the worst video game...
