Same here; I rarely pre-order anything but I enjoyed Civ V and its expansions so much I didn't see any reason not to buy it right away- it didn't even occur to me to wait to see if anyone else would be offering it for less before it even releases. It does seem less than fair to the most ardent...

I couldn't help but notice that the CoH 2 Steam store page doesn't seem to reflect this information at all. It doesn't even make mention of a Collector's Edition. Am I missing something?

Has anyone seen coupons for games by Bohemia Interactive or specifically the game Take On Helicopters? These are virtually the only coupons I have use for but I haven't come across anyone who got one.

If I recall correctly police are instructed to use a level of force at most one level above that being used by the suspect. Being hit with a door is no where near lethal force.

So only a few years late to the party I'm thinking I want to start playing Hearts of Iron. I thought it would make sense to start with the latest one but a friend told me it was crap compared to II. Further research has produces mixed results. So I ask you, Escapist, which Hearts of Iron game do...

This makes me feel good about humanity's future.

I would be surprised and disappointed in the Escapist if this was really the first pony thread, but anyway Twilight is being seriously underrepresented here. EDIT: Rarity and Applejack are also being underrepresented. Why does everyone dislike the ponies I like, and vice-versa? Kids these...

...I wrote that two years ago. I don't even remember writing that. I don't remember this thread. Probably because it was two years ago. Please don't make counterpoints to things I wrote two years ago. Chances are I don't even hold the same opinion I did when that post was written, and either...

I'm extremely glad games are making this important step towards being accepted as a legitimate mature form of media. And it's certainly fitting that a Rockstar game is the first to make it to Tribeca. I've always said that Rockstar's games are the closest to movies in their quality and the best...

This is seriously disappointing. It's depressingly clear that Microsoft's interests lie in profit, not the PC gaming community, and they seem to have decided that Facebook and the Wii were far too profitable ventures for them to miss out on.

This is why I love IGN.

I'm getting the same problem. I'm sure my answers aren't wrong, and it's too much of a coincidence that it's only on even numbered questions. It seems to be bugged.

I think Olin may be confusing just Treyarch with the entire video game industry. I'm sure Treyarch is seeing a lot of complains, but there's a good chance that's because there's plenty to complain about.

It was very well done but a little melodramatic and cliched for my taste. Especially the ninja scene...I can't believe they thought that was a good idea.

No, it's not. It's my opinion that if you post pictures of yourself naked on the internet there are certain risks you take, such as people who use the internet (ie. potentially every single human being) acquiring those pictures. Especially if you're underage, it's just an idiotic move. As for...
