Guess it's just Yahtzee and ZP left. Good work Escapist, run your site into the ground listening to people who don't visit it anyway. Livin' the dream. <------------- My post-count is trying to tell me something...

Looking at the trailer, the "hybrid dino" still in its enclosure after the marks have been left by its assumed escape and the cuttlefish camo DNA rumours, I would assume the main reason that the dinos don't have feathers is because then it couldn't go all chameleon and I'm betting that is a big...

This is just ludicrous. There has been, and continues to be a huge decline in violent crime across the Western World over the last three decades. To say there has been a "dramatic uptick in real world violence", let alone to try to connect this fictional upsurge in violence to video games, is...

I really thought the whole "90's suck" meme was a comic book thing, down to Rob Liefeld-esque excessive violence, sexuality, gore and pockets. And that it rather inadvertently came to be applied to the entire decade. Most people I know, who are not in the comics/geek scene tend to believe...

Argo also give the "Team America" side a win out of what is widely seen as an American loss. The Iranian Revolution which was the first in a string of nasty high-profile American fails and miss-steps during the 80's (Iran-Contra and all that). People kinda forget how sucky Reagan's early...

I'd add the 30 Years war, nice long setting with plenty of intrigue and double crossing and a setting which spreads right across Europe from the Arctic Circle in the North to Italy in the South and East to Russia. The architecture of the Old Ones looks kind of South America, so I wouldn't...

More copies sold. On-line multi-player expands sales base because if anyone wants to play with their friends they have to purchase a copy of the game. Economics.

What about people who design their own tattoos then? I have several friends who drew their own tattoos and then a tattoo artist put them on their body. Surely the argument is with the fighter or the Fighting organisation who signed the likeness contracts without consulting the tattoo...

I have to say the endings weren't that annoying to me. The really annoying think about the endings that annoyed me was the fact we were in a room, with three buttons and that picked our ending! We all played three games and made a ton of decisions and yet not one informed our endings. I...

The problem I had was not with the ending themselves, but that I went through three games of choices and NOT ONE CHOICE had an impact on my ending. I was put in a room (a mighty big room, but a room nonetheless) with three buttons and picked a button. I would have preferred if my actions...

Two words: Historical Precedent. Two more: Slow decline. I'm Irish and, as an Irish person, I have a genetic predisposition to complain about EVERYTHING! Government? It sucks. Country? It's cold, wet and insular, except when it's too warm and clammy and...and...and...you get my point...

YAY BROWNIES!!!! Especially "special" brownies! Or even regular ones, warmed up with ice-cream... NOM NOM NOM...

It's back up, but it's still all buggy and slow. I'm getting error messages on almost every second screen and the loading is sooooooooooo slow...still...it's back I suppose... Would've much rathered a voucher with value to a set game list. Have them all already...

I wonder if any of them have read Red Son...might want to avoid letting them have that one...

Awesome article. Absolutely awesome.
