    Poll: Sword Fans

    I'd be interested to hear what you don't like about Ice, although I agree with you concerning Needle and Longlcaw's pommel. Joffrey's Valyrian blade was Widow's Wail.

    Poll: Sword Fans

    Man, that sucks. Way too many scams out there these days. I've had pretty good luck so far, but I usually buy from reputable sellers on Ebay, or on fairly popular websites. At least you got your money back out of the deal, and a good Paypal advertisement!

    Whats your current ringtone?

    Ozzy Osbourne's "Crazy Train" for calls, and a western theme for texts.

    Poll: Sword Fans

    Well hello there my fellow Escapist's! After receiving the most recent addition to my collection, I began to wonder how many Escapist's collected swords and how many they had. On top of that, I'd be interested to know how long you've been a collector and what items have found their way into your...

    Japan makes cooler characters than everyone else...

    Okay, your opening argument was good, but your closing argument was horrible. Japanese characters do generally have a lot more personally and style, especially when you are talking about Final Fantasy, but I think it has a lot to do with Japanese culture. American games do often feature gruff...

    Fallout: New Vegas, Is It Worth It?

    I just started playing New Vegas a few days ago and the only "bugs" I've encountered are occasionally not being able to loot a corpse. No issues otherwise, so I assume that they are fixed. I haven't tried any of the DLC yet though, and that seems like where most of the bugs came from when I was...

    Mature 17+ means 18+ now?

    If it makes you feel any better, I've seen some stores in the US where mature games are marked as 18+. It was always aggravating, because I could I could go across the street and buy the same game marked 17+.

    Poll: So, which destination would you choose?

    That's a tough one. I'd either have to go with Raccoon City or Silent Hill. I'm leaning towards Raccoon City, but if the rest of the world is overrun with zombies as well then I may take my chances with Silent Hill. I would choose one of these over the others because I'm not familiar with the...

    Your teleported to your worst nightmare, you can take ONE video game character as a companion...

    Well, the dreams I personally consider nightmares usually involve me catching my an ex-girlfriend cheating on me, or a current girlfriend breaking up with me. In those cases, I don't know of any video game characters I'd want with me. Then again, the character might kill the cheating ex, and...

    What's the story behind your username?

    My first username was rather simple, just my initials and part of my last name. After spending some time on the Escapist and seeing more original names I decided I needed one of my own, something that really defined me. I fancy wolves, and have been considered to be a bit of a lone wolf. Also...

    Poll: Can you tell time on a "regular" clock?

    I learned how to read an analog clock at a fairly young age (and was really proud of myself at the time for the "accomplishment") and still prefer using analog clocks around the house and have several analog wrist watches. At work, however, I use a digital watch set for military time, both for...

    What's your middle name?

    Awesome webcomic by the way! OTW: My middle name is James. Unoriginal, but better than the John that my parents were originally planning on.

    Gun Suggestions

    Go for a Marlin .44 Mag lever-action rifle. Lever-actions are nice rifles, and you can usually pick them up fairly cheap at gun shows. You could do the same for a .357 too, then have less round variety laying around or that you'd have to buy.

    Should the death sentence be used more?

    I have very mixed feelings on the death penalty. My gut answer is yes, everybody sentenced to life in prison or granted the death penalty should be the proud owners of a (not so) shiny new casket within a year of receiving their sentence. However, whenever I give the subject some thought, I...
