    TF2 Players: Help Me?

    Hello, I made a TF2 map and I'm pretty far in the alpha stage, but I need to do a test run with more than my small group of friends. If anyone on the Escapist could join us and give feedback, it would be greatly appreciated, thanks! Either find me (Tarry H. Sruman) on Steam or find a server...

    That's "unamerican"

    I was listening to radio in the car today, and I heard on the political news segment (I dread politics, but I was too busy driving to turn it off) play a speech from some senator that was calling taxes, opponents, laws, etc. "Un-American". It made me wonder, does something similar happen in...

    Force a RROD?

    I paid for a console, which broke down 2 weeks after the (alarmingly short, considering the console's horrible reliability) warranty ran out. I'm not giving them another $100.

    Force a RROD?

    My Xbox's disc drive is broken. It doesn't read discs anymore. Unfortunately my warranty has run out. I can't pay the $100 repair charge, nor do I want to void the extra 3 years for RROD repairs by opening it up and replacing the drive myself. So I tried to overheat it in an attempt to force...

    Terrible Parts in Great Games

    So I was playing through Metro 2033, and having a lot of fun with it. But then I came to the amoeba part, the fucking amoeba part. That part was one of the most nightmarishly frustrating rooms I've ever seen in a game. It's really a shame too because the rest of the game was excellent and it...

    What I think makes a game great

    All I care about is the gameplay. Anything else doesn't matter as long as it's fun. Even terrible games can be fun for their comedic value. This is demonstrated in my beautifully drawn graph: http://i528.photobucket.com/albums/dd328/LooksLikeFailure/qualitygraph.png?t=1277786699

    Why doesn't the iPod touch get recognition as a handheld gaming console?

    Don't forget that it's made by Apple. And Apple gaming console is an oxymoron.

    Poll: Have you preordered Starcraft 2?

    Don't assume I saw the game played once. I own Warcraft 3 and Starcraft and have played them extensively. You misunderstand that I genuinely LIKE these games, I just think that there are other games that are far more enjoyable and have more variety.

    Poll: Have you preordered Starcraft 2?

    In Blizzard's RTSes, there really isn't anything going on anywhere other than in your base and the enemy base. The game always plays out the same way: You build a variety of units to counter whatever they happen to have then send them to the enemy base, hopefully before the enemy does the same...

    Poll: Have you preordered Starcraft 2?

    I hate the Blizzard brand of RTS now. After playing alot of Company of Heroes and Dawn of War, their games have too little depth and are far too simple to enjoy.

    Anyone wanna play some Bad Company 2?

    Hey guys, I'm bored and not having much luck finding a good BC2 squad, so I figured I'd see if anyone wants to play. XBL gamertag is WhalePhallus, just join my session or invite me to yours. Look forward to playing with some of you guys!
