    $29.90 for Fallout: New Vegas, should I get it now?

    If it's the PC version then JUMP ON IT! Then go to new vegas nexus! If not, I suppose it's still worth it. I payed $30 on the steam sale.

    A (hopefully) mature discussion: Is it really okay to hate smokers?

    I don't think I smoke anywhere near as much to be considered a smoker but I can't really call myself anything else. When I pull out one of my beloved Camel Filters when I'm feeling anxious and overwhelmed, I'm a smoker. When my friends are over and I bust out the Hookah, we're smokers. -but...

    Poll: What does the Escapist smoke?

    I pretty much just started smoking about a month ago, and I pretty much hate EVERYTHING I have tried except one thing - Camel filters. I have smoked hookah for much much longer though. I suppose it's in my Arab genes.

    How do I get better at Black Ops?

    Finding the right killstreak and perk combination can work wonders for you, no matter how long you've been playing. Or you can just say "fuck it" and get hardline and just spam RC cars.

    You could have some cool Easter egg hunts in an Easter theme though!

    It's just another Minecraft clone.

    The cool thing about minecraft is the random world generator though. This just looks like building blocks, no procedurally generated worlds begging for you to explore and plunder them.

    Sanity Meters

    I have a love hate relationship with the sanity "meter". The thing I liked the most about Amnesia including one is that the protagonist was there. It wasn't like gordon freeman where it was just a camera floating around, "Daniel" was actually there in the game world, he reacted to everything...

    Stolen Pixels #211: This is Not Funny

    I laughed harder at this post than the comic. Nice one! It's true though! I had trouble with supcom 2 at launch - I went through about 3 goats and screaming to the skies cursing Newell's name until I went to steam forums and learned about the rare blob. Then I played Supcom 2 and it turned...

    Those exclusives that make you raaaaaaaage

    I really want to fucking play Alan Wake but I already have a PS3 and a PC so I'll just rent it and go play it at a friend's house. Whether they like it or not because I'm not buying another freaking console.

    Stolen Pixels #186: Well Lookie Who We Have Here

    Fallout 3 was still an RPG. Not to mention that the first games were pretty combat heavy (if you so desired) so the FPS nature of it was more of an evolution and there was still "VATS" for the turn based slow-mo loving crowd. Now we go from turn based overhead strategy game to real time FPS...

    I just ain't that into her.....

    I don't know her or you, but my advice would be that if you are going to break this off then don't make the mistake of saying things like "we can still be friends" or "I still care about you but I just cannot keep going out with you" or anything like that - if you are going to do it then cut the...

    The Escapist Presents: Modern Warfare 2 Stimulus Package Guided Tour

    Did anyone else watch this and think "Wow! - look at all those in-tact buildings..." or was it just me? If it was, I've got a problem.

    BioWare Explains Why There's No Homosexuality in Mass Effect 2

    You can definitely do lesbian things with Kelly, but I don't know of any gay things with MaleShep. Still, in a game with cross-species intercourse, maybe complaining about lack of homosexual relationships seems pretty redundant once you blur the line between "sex" and "bestiality".
