    Games you consider 10/10.

    So a 10/10 for me isn't perfection because that just makes the rating unattainable, to me its a game that I absolutely adore and like a favourite movie, memory or book it's nice to revisit it occasionally. Dark Souls 1 (and maybe 3). I haven't finished 3 yet (though I suspect I'm close)...

    Diablo 3 Patch 2.4 BlizzCon Reveal - The Biggest Patch Since RoS

    Good on Blizzard for releasing all of this stuff as patches, as Kahani said, most devs would charge hand over fist for all this content, micropayments for the new gear, a small package for the set dungeon and a DLC pack for the new areas. Blizz's Diablo series is one of the few that lets this...

    How would you feel if someone was illegaly carrying a gun and ended up stopping a massacre?

    Surprised at my foresight in predicting the massacre, happy that it was averted in this instance and saddened that it would likely encourage other people to carry weapons around in the hopes of being a hero. In that order.

    Dub-Stepping Violinist Lindsey Stomp Earned $6 Million Via YouTube

    On the one hand it is nice to see something relatively different being popular around the interwebs, on the other hand I find her videos boring and the one live performance I saw was extremely underwhelming. She always dances in the same way and after the fifth time it's quickly apparent that...

    FUNNY MEMES FOR FUNNY PEOPLE

    Meme != joke, memes were originally meant to be to society what genes are to people. 4chan/Reddit/everyone on the internet who's in the pissing contest invented the other form of memes which is a kind of cultural joke for the internet, one of the key parts of it being a meme is that it recurs...

    Poll: Is it rude to tell people "please don't talk to me"?

    You'd be surprised. At least in my experience the elderly seem more willing to talk to people with tattoos, long hair, piercings etc. (also; obnoxious? you're extremely offended by others' aesthetics?) The most polite way I find to disengage is to apologise and say you're not having a great...

    Upon The Mary Sue Character in Video Games

    The Mary Sue is an interesting thing. I'm an avid D&D player and Mary Sues are rare if unseen in my circles, though I hear horror stories. Most people willingly insert flaws and having watched several players over numerous campaigns I've had the good fortune to watch them adapt and grow in terms...

    non Americans: do you think we are violent?

    I think you're people for the most part. Seems likely anyway from what I can gauge. I'm British by the way one of those people it's appropriate to call 'British' since I am both English and Scottish. Most other people I know don't like being called British, they prefer English or Scottish (and I...

    There Will Be Bloodborne

    I hope you don't get flamed for this, I think it's great when an amazing game gets beaten out for goty. If Witcher 3 rocks us all then...awesome. In no way would it detract from my Bloodborne love, I have love enough for many games. OT: I never thought of it that way...that's pretty apt for...

    So Bloodborne

    'sigh'. I have to go play Ninja Gaiden don't I? Gods be damned. I agree with the upgrade requirements, I think the upgrading system was pretty poor since I never found an opportunity to incrementally improve my gear throughout the game, main weapon/s go up to ~+4, then usually skip on through...

    So Bloodborne

    Is it the animations that are bothering you? You only use 3 animations? You know you can do way better than that right? In Dark Souls 2 one of my favourite and most successful classes was a 'weapons master', he used a falchion off hand, estoc on hand primarily and switched between 2-handing the...

    Poll: Would you let your kid play (American) football in school?

    This. I noticed it when I played rugby, I got shoulder padding for a little bit and the difference was pretty nasty. It wasn't huge either, not like suddenly my tackles impacted where they hadn't, it was just the commitment went up, the occasions where I'd strike a knee just didn't matter...

    Poll: Do you think stealing from the poor is worst than stealing from the rich?

    Is it equal? I mean seriously, is it actually an equivalent crime? Is there an equivalent amount of loss? If you take £500 from someone with £520 in their bank account you may well have destroyed their life, that's not hyperbole or being absurd that's a genuine truth. I don't have any savings...

    Poll: Do you think stealing from the poor is worst than stealing from the rich?

    Leftie la la hand? What? I don't know how you think it's conducive to begin a post with a blanket insult to the website you are apparently quite an active member of. Does it help you sleep better at night or are you just feeling spiteful? How is it immaterial? If a man has ten thousand copies...

    Poll: Do you think stealing from the poor is worst than stealing from the rich?

    Do you have a system of morality at all? It needn't be an objective moral system, mine isn't but still encompasses problems like theft from another. Most of my morals run off of a choice theft basis, how much choice do you take and give is fairly indicative of moral bad or good. So for me...
