    Dissociation with Lead Characters

    Oh my God, this. I literally yelled at the TV when that certain even happened in LA Noire, and everything you said regarding the game taking control away from you so your character can do something just completely idiotic... yes. That was pretty much the point where I stopped caring about the...

    Hello people! Are you in good health?

    Just found out from a specialist today that the severe pain in my hips is due to severe and increasing bone-degradation, and will need a double-hip replacement at the ripe old age of 33. I'm also currently "employed" (but on extended, unpaid medical leave) as well as severely underinsured, to...

    Bioshock Infinite SPOILERS (I don't GET it!)

    I have to say, I'm pleasantly surprised by the feedback I've been getting from my question. I'm not trying to say that the questions were keeping me up.... well, okay, that's not true--I was literally laying in bed, trying to figure things out, and then I got up and posted on HERE, because I...

    Bioshock Infinite SPOILERS (I don't GET it!)

    I wanted to thank both of you for helping me work things through. To Averant, "You didn't get the game, did you?" I beg to differ. I consider myself a relatively intelligent individual and, perhaps in my own defense, I *did* play the game through one, marathon-sitting. However, I feel...

    Bioshock Infinite SPOILERS (I don't GET it!)

    Okay, I got the game on Tuesday, I sat there and worked through breakfast, lunch, and dinner at it, (played at it?) and I have to say that there are a few things towards the end that I simply don't understand. THERE ARE SPOILERS HERE. THIS IS INVOLVING THE END OF THE GAME. DO NOT READ IF YOU...

    Anyone else enjoying martial arts?

    I studied Bao Ding Shuai Chiao for a couple of years while I lived in Texas, (essentially Chinese speed-grappling.) Our instructor also included elements of Baji, Long-Fist, and Mantis, as well, to help us gain familiarity on how to strike properly... although he was known as saying more than...

    Games that devolved into absurdity.

    I honestly can't believe that Condemned 2: Bloodshot wasn't mentioned, as it seemed to borrow a page.... well, chapter... okay, pretty much the whole *book* that was Indigo Prophecy--Starting with realism, and then going just absolutely BWOOP! BWOOP! BWOOP! SUPER SAIYAN SCREAMING HEAD EXPLODY...

    Alright kids, weigh in. What is the best RPG yet made?

    For me, it's a three-way-split, between Chrono Cross, Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic (for the XBox and PC, not the new MMO,) and Planescape: Torment. That's just me!

    Ocean Marketing vs. Penny Arcade

    I'm gonna descend from the wings of lurkdom and offer my two cents into this entire fiasco--Although at this point, my two cents is gonna make the whole plethora of offerings and counter-offerings into a good, tidy sum! When you work for a company, as a customer-service rep, you *represent* that...

    Most memorable opening line in a game

    If you get the opportunity to check out Homeworld, you might also want to try and get your hands on the expansion, Homeworld: Catacylsm (my personal favorite and one of the best RTSs I've ever played. Just loved it.)

    Trailers: Need For Speed: The Run - Michael Bay Trailer

    Dude, seriously... I expected to see cars, and then explosions. I was very disappointed.

    Favorite missions in the Saints Row francise.

    To be perfectly honest, and I might sound almost trite when I say this, but just about *all* of the main-story "campaign" missions had a surprising amount of 'weight' to them. While Saint's Row, and especially Saint's Row 2 seemed to rip out a page from the GTA playbook, they made everything...

    Which friend are you?

    I'm the one that takes the friendship seriously. When I say 'Call me anytime' or 'I'll give you the shirt off my back if you ask', I mean it. I'm also the one that has a one-strike-you're-out mentality. It takes a lot to get me to that point, if you're my friend, but once you've hit it, it'll...

    Coming out to your family and friends.

    I'm not gay myself, nor am I bisexual, but there was a rift for a number of years between my mother and myself regarding a close friend of mine who was, as I like to say, 'very obviously gay'. No, I'm not stereotyping, but you couldn't sit with this kid for five minutes and not figure things...
