    Poll: Is it just me, or are age recommendations getting harsher?

    Game ratings are pretty much marketing tools now. Why are there so many 12 year olds on Call of Duty? Because it's that cool hardcore M rated game with a hardcore matchmaking system, when in reality the blood is pretty minor and the game mechanics are pretty simple and casual. They could...

    Poll: How do you have your tea?

    Black, Green, Hot, Iced, Flavored, whatever. As long as it has sweet 'n low in it I'll drink it. Don't give me that splenda crap, it's disgusting.

    How closely do you adhere to the law?

    I abide completely by my own ethics. There's a lot of overlap between my ethics and the law, if there was a beating/robbery/shootout or whatever then of course I'd report it. That's sensible. But if I spot a few people smoking some pot, well I support legalization of marijuana and see no...

    To Boldly Flee

    I'm actually loving To Boldly Flee more than any of their other anniversaries. It's so ridiculous and over the top (and they all are, but this one seems to take it further) that I just get this feeling of humor through it. I don't know, maybe it just hit some specific chemistry with me. As...

    What are the pros and benefits of a Mac?

    Hardware wise, you cannot justify buying a Mac machine completely retail at all. If you enjoy the OS then build a computer and install Mac OS on it. Buying a Mac from retail is incredibly overpriced (I've seen them go for 3k+ more expensive than a typical toshiba model with the same specs, and...

    Escapist, I've found a gamestop card with $25 on it.

    It's not like I picked it up from an abandoned table in the mall, I found it under the old bed in my house and is likely something I lost a long time ago. Yessss, someone else who favors FF3. I'll look into P3, I've never played that series, but I likely won't get P4 right now simply...

    Escapist, I've found a gamestop card with $25 on it.

    I have everything but a 3DS and Vita. And oh, I can buy a steam card. I shall consider that. Browsing steam store now. Well that's good to hear. X-2 really let me down after X, I'll take a look at those two games to see if they're interesting. Haven't played console in a long time.

    Which console has the best/worst game cases?

    Most game cases nowadays are just like DVD cases no matter what you're using to play. The only thing I hate is when they cheap out and put those stupid hole things in the middle to save money on them (MW2 and Super Mario Galaxy 2). I hated the PS1 cd cases. That plastic breaks so easily. I...

    Escapist, I've found a gamestop card with $25 on it.

    What should I buy? I've thought about getting FF XII-2 because I loved XIII, but I'm afraid it might be like X-2. Thoughts?

    Getting Furious Over "Girlfriend Mode"

    No. That is not what they were saying. At all. I've never actually played Borderlands, but if I'm not mistaken isn't a bloody shooter kind of manly type of game? Seems like a place where a mode like that being called "Girlfriend mode" would be kind of humorous. If my girlfriend wanted to...

    Poll: How do you read huge forum threads?

    Unless it's a subject where I REALLY want to read about it, usually I just read the first page to get a sense of the subject, then read the last page before replying to posts or posting my opinion

    Ape Escape: Did anyone actually play this game?

    Played Ape Escape, Ape Escape 2, Ape Escape: Pumped and Primed, and Ape Escape 3 all as they came out growing up, it has it's place in my childhood for sure. Wish they would make an Ape Escape 4 instead of these crappy Ape spinoffs like Ape Quest and Ape Academy, though.

    Hey anime fans, is the Dragon Ball series actually revered as a good anime?

    It pretty much set the formula for modern shounen manga. As said before, you can't deny it's success, only it's style. Fights are action packed, story is basic, and it's silly moments are pretty entertaining. I recently rewatched all of DB and DBZ and some of it's gags still managed to make...

    The oldest game you own

    Umm, I would have to go through the atari collection that was passed down to me. I'm on vacation so I can't, but I'm sure one of them would have come out it's release year, so I should be 1977. And yes, I own E.T. Atari. Yes, it's terrible.

    Poll: What do you think about circumcision?

    I'm circumcised and would like to reply with this 1. Nobody can remember being circumcised, I couldn't ever tell you how much it hurts to be circumcised, and I didn't even know I was until my teenage years. 2. In the long run, I can't really imagine anybody really caring. Someone who's...
