    elder scrolls 5 skyrim WISH LIST :)

    1. No level scaling. Why even have a leveling system if all the enemies scale with you? It's pointless. 2. Hand crafted dungeons/caves etc... 3. Make what I do actually matter. 4. Make quick travel and the quest arrow optional. 5. No more psychic guards please. 6. Make lots and lots of...

    British Government Proposes Universal Ban on Net Porn

    God forbid little Billy see a pair of tits. This doesn't even make any sense. Parents should have to call their ISP to REMOVE access to porn, not the other way around... If this passes I can just see Conservatives here in the US following suit.

    Poll: A question for those with New Vegas.

    23 hrs in. 2 crashes, 2 glitches. Definitely playable, but I'm bored now so I stopped playing. Fallout 3 was a better game imo.

    Poll: Voiced protagonist or silent protagonist?

    Voiced. Unless the developers can't afford decent voice actors.

    Poll: It's really time to stop supporting Blizzard

    tl;dr I don't care about it either way, but it IS pretty ridiculous. It's like playing a game of chess by yourself and having the manufacturer come to your house and take the game from you because you "cheated" while playing against nobody.

    Thinking about dropping out.

    I really recommend you at least finish High School. It's hard enough for college graduates to find a decent job, it's nigh impossible for high school drop outs. You might get by, but there will come a time in your life where you will regret this decision, and by that time it's usually too late...

    What is a 'pet peeve' of yours?

    People on the internet who say 'your' instead of 'you're'. Same thing with 'there', 'their', and 'they're'. It just annoys me to no end, especially when someone tries to insult your intelligence by saying something like "Your an idiot."

    Games with a great atmosphere.

    Since all of my top choices have been said already I'll just say The Witcher. The music, the NPC's, the world design, everything in this game lends itself to a wonderful atmosphere. It's one of the few games that does dark fantasy well.

    Poll: So how did you get into gaming?

    My parents bought my sister an NES when we were little. She never played it, but I did. I didn't really play it all that much, I think we had a total of 5 games. Super Mario Bros. 3 and Mega Man 6 were enough for me. Then my friend got a Sega Genesis, then I got a PS1 and it just kind of snowballed.

    The best thing about the city/town you live in

    My city recently ranked as the most uneducated city in the United States, and it is close to the 2nd and 3rd most uneducated cities. We also have the 2nd worst air quality in the United States. My city is an absolute shit hole. But if I have to say something positive, I guess it's nice being...

    Describe your "dream" game

    A space sim/RPG type game. Where you can travel to various planets, land on them, explore/trade/fight/do side quests and then take off to another planet and do the same thing. There should obviously be some sort of plot, but the point is that I can go where I want and visit interesting planets...

    Poll: TV vs PC: which couldn't you live without?

    Gonna have to go with PC. I have a TV, but there's never anything good on.

    Why do you think that people think that PC gaming is dying?

    A lot of people are computer illiterate. They don't want to think about what kind of computer they need to run modern games, because they don't know anything about computers. They'd rather just buy a little "ready-made" box that they can plug into their TV like a DVD player and use it to play...
