As much as I enjoy the Witcher games, that circumstance would only mean something if those award shows were more than glorified commercials. Battlefront for best shooter despite barely being out. Until Dawn for best narrative (do I need to explain why that had me rolling on the floor?). Hell...

Oh goody. Can't wait to make "choices that matter", only for either a deus ex machina or a sudden case of mass amnesia/idiocy bring me right back on track to the hallway.

See, there are two kinds of "I don't get it." The One Piece- I don't get it, which derives from the author coming up with the weirdest shit he can and utterly and completely embraces that weirdness, turning it into an understandable part of the world. And the Bleach-I don't get it, which...

The "friend zone" as a concept of course exists, otherwise we wouldn't be able to have this discussion - which, for the record, wouldn't be a bad thing. As an actual, tangible thing though, no. It's Bullshit, made up to excuse failure. Because god forbid people nowadays might actually not get...

Is that a thing now? Cause I'm fairly certain I read an eerily similar article on this very site not too long ago. So is that EA's new PR-gag? Releasing a press statement, saying they want to better themselves every few months or so? I mean, yes, I'm the first to agree that modern internet-users...

Okay, I keep hearing that whenever a product in a creative field is brought up and quite frankly, it's starting to piss me off. Your personal APPRECIATION of art is subjective, yes. Not everyone likes the music of Michael Jackson, the movies by Stanley Kubrick or the written work of William...

Erm..hey, psht, revolutionary idea: Both the Michael Bays of this world AND their audience are the problem. And no, you don't really owe him an apology. Everything you said about this guy was pretty much spot on. It's tiring to me, to be honest, when internet critics "grow old" and confuse...

"[...] but the trailer looks pretty great." How? No, seriously, what is in this trailerthat is so great? The vehicles? The spider man gloves? Because speaking of games, neither of those are new or outstanding and so far, there's nothing hinting at those things being anything else but...

Silat. Admittedly I'm taking a bit of a cop-out route here with not specifying which form of Silat but the thing I like about it is present in (almost) all forms. It largely dispenses with the "set-piece" structure of most popular martial arts (i.e. you learn specific singular kicks, thrusts...

Yeah, as many pointed out before, there's nothing inherently wrong with disliking children. "Hate", I think, is too strong a word if we talk about children in general, but that word gets thrown around so much, it's not even funny anymore. And it's not like babies are such stunning...

Maybe somebody mentioned it already (I'm in bit of a hurry) but just in case: I see where your confusion comes from: When women in games and other media are sexually appealing (according to current general standards of beuaty, yaddayadda) it's considered objectifying but if men are...

Well...erm...don't know if you played it already, at least it's not in your list but Guild Wars 2 sounds precisely like what you're looking for: 1. The combat is highly action based. Where in WoW most spells require you to stay still, the exact opposite is the case in GW2: Yo can and SHOULD...

Oh sweet mother of god. Bob....I disagreed with you from time to time. Sometimes, I wholeheartedly agreed. Now I can't emphasize it enough: T-H-A-N-K Y-O-U! No, honestly, I've been bringing up this point so often in discussions and I really feared no internet celeb would ever bring...

Yeah, quite a lot to choose from, much of what has already been mentioned. I really would LOVE to put Bleach and Naruto up here, but starting from a certain point I completely abandoned both animes and turned exclusively to the mangas. But considering what an absolute crap-turn THOSE took, I...

Naming a child after (or, to put it more general: like) a fictional character is a) not really crazy per se (!) and b) even not that easy to avoid anymore. Hell, when I was at the Gymnasium (German type of school) there was a girl named "Lara". Not named after Ms. Croft but back then Croft was...
