    Bioware vs. their Fans

    I'd argue that the difference isn't their acquisition by EA and more self entitled fans planning out sequels in their heads which they then get upset about the sequel not matching. I will admit, I've not actually played ME3 yet, but I personally found ME2 to be vastly superior to ME1. I also...

    EXTRA CREDITS demands that E3 not becovered by video game websites, should Escapist follow?

    I believe the escapist should. Regardless of whether the blackout day yesterday has dramatically decreased support for SOPA/PIPA or not, the issue at hand here, is that the ESA is basically ignoring the wishes of those that they represent. This isn't on, and the idea behind an E3 boycott is...

    UK 'Piracy' student to be extradited to US

    I'm unsure how much I agree with the actual case, as there are MANY websites that link to pirated material, and I don't see them being shut down and the owners arrested. I'm willing to bet several are Americans and therefore don't require extraditing either. On the other hand, I'm at least...

    Poll: Katawa Shoujo: Not Sleezy fetish Sim

    I've not played it, and probably won't. I'm sure it's tasteful, interesting and all the rest (despite the initial knee-jerk I think we all had when we read about it), but I've got 20 odd games to play which I don't have time for already. I've a question for the OP however: Now having played...

    Something I realised about America this Holiday

    I must say, aside from all else the OP wrote, I'm amazed at how impressed they were with Americans cuisine. Perhaps they were mostly experiencing home-cooking, but I've found every time/place I've been in America and eating out at restaurants, I'm so desperate for some vegetables with my food I...

    EA Boycott?

    Technically isn't this Origin you have issues with and not EA as a whole? I've been boycotting Origin already. I also boycott Activision as they're cocks. No games for me it looks like....

    Poll: Is Sex Actually Loving Someone?

    No, it's not love. As for cheating, every couple sets their own boundaries.

    Poll: School - Is This Cheating?

    If it is identical (which it shouldn't be...that's just laziness) then usually they do a lot better job of keeping the test under wraps. From his initial description, several of his friends who took the module last year still have their tests. While you might get one or two who swipe a copy from...

    Poll: School - Is This Cheating?

    I have studied at university for 3 years and never had an issue with this. We're given access to previous years questions to practice on for pretty much every module. They do actually change the questions slightly/rotate picking 3-4 questions from 10 total each year though. So you can't just...

    Poll: According to my peers, PC gaming is inferior to consoles.

    Why does everyone seem to quote that PC gaming sucks because they don't like playing with a keyboard/mouse? It's not like the PC can't accept both xbox and ps3 controllers, and vice versa, I was using a mouse for Red Alert back on the PS1, so there is no reason that the Xbox can't use a...

    Seriously, why do some guys pull this shit?

    I'm not entirely sure how much "steam" this thread has left in it, or how much you want it to. But I'd probably Edit your first post to specify ages, as originally I had assumed you were probably teenagers (generally as that's when such awkwardness seems to mostly occur) and even after you...

    Poll: What could EA do to change your mind about using Origin?

    Accidental actually. I clearly have a guilty conscience :P Further evidence why you should review what you're about to post. I dunno if activision games required steam or not, I got MW2 on console, which required nothing. Origin requires you to register even on console as I understand it...

    Poll: What could EA do to change your mind about using Origin?

    D. Remove the scanning of everything I do on my computer. It's an invasion of my piracy and I have anti-virus software for this reason. Assuming they did that I'd be happy to install it to play their games, although they'd have to go some to make me buy games from there. Between the interface...

    Poll: PC gone too far, or is it offensive?

    Really? You didn't know what Mong stood for? Whenever I call someone a Mong it's because I'm saying they are mentally retarded (which I should add, isn't a regular occurrence, but I use the word fully knowing what it means). It's meaning hasn't changed and I refer you to urbandictionary...

    So....the Queen is coming to town....

    I'm rather of the opinion that while I'm unsure why it's a massive media frenzy that she didn't curtsy, I don't really see why she didn't do so in the first place. It's a simple sign of respect, it's not degrading and takes a whole 3 seconds. As for the whole "The queen has no power here, why...
