I understand what you're saying Shamus, and I agree. But there's just one problem with your analysis. Square-Enix could simply STOP making shit-games like FFXIII (and I imagine Versus and whatever other "Crysto-fabula-nova" shit they're releasing will be equally garbage) - and focus all of...

So...you commented on this article just to tear it down? To examine it on content and mechanics like some high school English teacher? Well congratulations, chief, you've succeeded. If you're not going to contribute to some sort of discussion about the subject matter, then why are you even...

It's articles like this that keep me reading the escapist. You touch on an important point - the struggle for gamers - the well-adjusted amongst us who do not lurk in parents' basements - to reconcile our love for gaming with the anathema that is the gamer stereotype. I have a friend who...

That is in the Manifesto, certainly, and as a standalone statement, there isn't much wrong with it. Abiding by this view does not make one a Marxist. It makes you one with a sense of fairness and justice.

What a bunch of nonsense. No one's calling for a Nanny government. "Leftists" as you like to call us, call for OVERSIGHT, so that corporations do not have carte blanche authority to run roughshod over regular people. Corporations are unique in that they have all the rights of individuals but...

Who has this common misconception? I don't think anyone would argue that a CEO did not do considerable work and/or exercise considerable skill to get to that position. I certainly did not. I said - please READ - that the CEO did not do it on their OWN, a point that cannot be argued unless...

Funny how idiots make assumptions. I've never in my life taken money from any wealth distribution program. I, and my family before me, has always worked - and struggled - to make ends meet. And mind you, there are many wealthy social liberals, just as there are many wealthy people in...

Understandable. No one with any sense or compassion does. But if the attacks of 9/11 were predicated on the idea that America is somehow "evil" or deserving of "retribution" - however true or misguided this view may be - can you not see how responding with violence before understanding will...

You cannot be this deluded. Can you? Do you REALLY think that there are no innocent civilian casualties in war? And what does ANY man in Iraq have to do with 9/11? Probably NOTHING. Just because you follow a platform blindly and out of fear does not mean that I do. I do not think...

Funny that you advocate for a candidate based on his "intimidation factor", and that your entire analysis of foreign policy seems based on being afraid yourself. "What if we're attacked?!" The irony is staggering.

It is about Bush in as much as McCain's foreign policy is a mirror of that of Bush. By "capacity for" I mean potential, and Obama has demonstrated that even in his assertion that he would be willing to sit down with our "enemies" and work through the differences. The truth is that we do not...

This kind of thing makes me sigh. Who is "they"? What people like you fail to understand is that in many cases, "terrorists" (as a sweeping term) consist of people who have chosen to resort to desperate and despicable methods for dealing with real problems. Just as you want McCain at the...

Yeah, because fear and intimidation go a long way in earning international respect. This can't seriously be a reason for supporting McCain over Obama, can it? No one would be afraid of the old cripple who can't raise his hands above his head. They're afraid of the stockpile of nuclear...

I hate you.

Success and foolishness are mutually exclusive concepts. There are many, MANY rich, stupid people. Good. Note "broad set", and "theories", meaning that rather than criticizing it altogether, one should examine and refine certain aspects of it, where the theory is not applied correctly, i.e...
