    Square Enix Wants a New Final Fantasy Every Year

    I think they need to learn from their past. Each game has some things going for it that are amazing. 12 was immersive and had a great free roaming style I liked, but most of the characters fell fairly flat. 13 had a innovative combat system but was marred by most of it not coming until too...

    Teen Arrested for Home-Made "Hot or Not" List on Facebook

    I hope this goes big somehow, even to the Supreme Court if needs be, and they lay the ban hammer on the law enforcement officials who did this. Also, since it was cheered at school, and as a yearly occurrence, its not like anyone in school is going to do anything to him, so the for his...

    Teen Arrested for Home-Made "Hot or Not" List on Facebook

    One point seems to have escaped a lot of attention, that is that this kid had did this in the 2 years previous. What's different now? It was almost a ritual, and if he was cheered by the populace in general, doesn't that strike you as something expected? I have a feeling not all those...

    Teen Arrested for Home-Made "Hot or Not" List on Facebook

    What strikes me if this is the 3rd time he has done such, being a kind of yearly ritual, what makes this one different? Why do something now, when it has happened before? Arresting, and any charges of criminal activity are way beyond the scope of punishment, expelling even might be taking it a...

    An Advanced Civilization has been discovered?

    Well if they need another species, to replace a degrading RNA strand or some such, I would consider that a resource. The inhabitants are still a resource in the definition of something they need that there is a limited or otherwise hard to get amount of whatever said resource is. Especially if...

    An Advanced Civilization has been discovered?

    I know pretty much nothing of string theory, but for a work of fiction, even realistic ala say Mishner or some such, taking all the varying dimensions, or at least some of them, and classifying them and how they act on their own and in relation to several others in a way that seems plausible...

    Books you hate and books you wish they were never made.

    Pride and Prejudice, I had to read it in high school and I feel that Jane Austin is a small minded feminist (before you comment, I did read it front to back several times). But I did think Jane Austin's writing had benefit humankind And Pride & Prejudice teaches you how to bullshit for 300+...

    Help a fellow Escapist by answering two short questions!

    Male and yes, to a point. Some stuff is just garbage, but you can say that about any genre.

    Extra Punctuation: An Invisible Protagonist

    To give it more of a theme, how about being a more sinister person. You're invisible, and get sent to a military base where some black ops people need to be driven insane and take each other out to preserve integrity of some secret mission that needs to have no witnesses. Or in some sort of...

    A Response to Extra Credits "Learning from Other M."

    If Samus's entire existence is to defeat Ridley, why is he the first boss in every game? Seems a little loose. At some point it was mentioned that she is emotionally incapable, then why does she not kill the baby metroid? That's seems quite emotionally capable, and makes me see her as...

    Favorite anime and suggestions?

    I like Code Geass, having a decent bit of depth and thought provoking scenarios, lots of explosions, and a hero who is fairly unconventional.

    Game of Thrones - HBO TV Series

    I am skeptical, I tend to not like cross genre stuff, a lot tends to be lost in translation. I do enjoy SoIaF, especially as the fantasy becomes more prevalent as the series goes on, but I would like the books to finish sometime soon. Legend of the Seeker had a lot of potential though a lot of...
