Tumblr, like any social platform, forum, or content sharing site, has an appealing surface level of endless streams of content available at minimum effor. The only real difference between tumblr and others, besides the interface, is that tumblr lets its bad side, its rashy, argumentative, holier...

My username, Gamegeneral, is an evolution of an old one, Gamesoldier, I used to have way back when. The old one was randomly generated on Pogo dot com when I was like frickin' 14.

Bloody Mary, hands down. Full wolf and absolute horror-on-horror. Failing that Jersey Devil was great because of teaming up with the Woodsman.

Honestly, if you build up the engine from the base up, co-op in skyrim is no harder than co-op in borderlands. Quest syncing is trivial, and the weapons in skyrim are less complicated than you might think. If Mount and Blade can have large scale conflicts on the internet using melee weapons...

One night, passing the controller back and forth between my brother and me. Doubt this counts for anything, but it WAS the All-stars version of the game for SNES.

Well, the way the engine works, multiplayer isn't technically possible. I think. Though there was an Oblivion mod that emulated multiplayer insofar as it created a cloned NPC of the client on the server, and there wasn't any synced NPCs, and it lagged like shit. Best we managed to do was...

I named by Breton "Rowyn Arvine." When I got the dog, I was going to name it "Rowyn Canine", but there's no option to do that, sadly.

I've seen a lot of enemies attack/walk through doors. Initiate combat with someone and then shut the door between you. Watch it fail.

Purely throwing this out because it is what made me a PC gamer, but Half-Life 2. You would not believe the time I spent just brutalizing the demo through use of console commands. Gaming history, there. And there's Oblivion, part of the reason I love exploration. Because I could just walk...

As much as I am looking forward to it, it will sadly not. I don't think such a leap is POSSIBLE anymore. We have 3D. Honestly, the next step is some kind of holodeck or brain-powered game, and I doubt games will have that impact when those things come along. Ocarina of Time was a game that...

Spritework ages well in my book. I mean, once we hit SNES we started having better, more long-lasting sprites. And then games like Symphony of the Night hit and blew the games out of the water with drawn graphics.

I follow the "utility latitude" rule, where everything at hand has to be between the middle of my hips and my belly button. Phone, keys, wallet, iPod, game, etc. If I'm in an area I feel will cause loss of property, things shift and I get handsy with my property, checking and rechecking its...

What worries me is that the game might still assume I need to be told where to go at all times. If I could, I'd just have my objective as a plink on a map and a compass telling me what direction I'm facing. Then when I get into the general area, it's up to me to search. If I recall, they...

Wait a week. Download mods to fix it. Or probably play it in the vain hope that it gets better.
