    Is it time for feminists to step off our hobby?

    People are CONSTANTLY complaining whenever the main protagonist is a man. I threw the rest in for extra emphasis but the fact remains that people are demanding more and more to make the main playable person female and if that's not what the developer wants then people should stop pressuring them...

    Is it time for feminists to step off our hobby?

    I'm just tired of having people take amazing games and intentionally search for things to offend them. Ohh GTA and Red Dead Revolver have hookers in them and you can kill them if you choose to, this game hates women! Anytime a game includes a sexy female, boom, instantly derided for...

    So apparently, 4chan is a person!

    It's funny how clueless mainstream news still is when it comes to computers/technology related things. I remember seeing a report where they called pedobear a pedophile mascot and the guy wearing the outfit was almost certainly going to touch your children. One simple Google search and you...

    Was it prudent of Jennifer Lawrence to take pictures of herself nude in the first place? Y/N?

    She has a right to do whatever she wants. But a big name celebrity doesn't have a reasonable expectation of privacy...unfortunately. She should be aware this kind of this is going to happen, as should anyone else of a similar status. I feel terrible for her and I wish this kind of thing...

    Microsoft Grabs Rise of the Tomb Raider in Xbox Exclusive - Update

    Guess I won't be buying Tomb Raider then, not that I would have anyway, I really couldn't stand that reboot. Nothing but shooting action, no tomb raiding or puzzle solving actually involved. Not to mention the whole "strong female lead" really just failed, for me at least. Literally shifting...

    Watch the Beginning of the New TMNT's Final Fight With Shredder

    I can't get past the creepiness of those turtles, it just doesn't look right.

    Giant Mystery Hole Opens in Siberian Region Named "End of the World" - Update

    I like how we have the choice of believing there is a plausible scientific reason for how it happened, or aliens!

    X-Men Actor Kelsey Grammar Would "Love" to Play Beast Again

    I certainly found some enjoyable elements from X3 but that plot, and the force-fed dialogue....oh god, it makes me shudder. The only thing that keeps it above prequel levels of awfulness is the fact that Wolverine doesn't go on a monologue about how much he hates sand. I'm looking at you...

    Spoil the Magic of Jurassic Park with This Before and After Footage

    I still can't believe this was from 1993...Well, earlier than that really, 1993 was just the release date. This is some of the most convincing CGI that I've ever seen, even to this day. My mind was totally blown when they showed the T-rex eating the jeep tire, I had no freaking clue that jeep...

    Watch Dogs PC Modders Find Hidden "E3" Settings, Improve Performance - Update

    I can only come to two rational conclusions from this: 1. Ubisoft hates PC gamers so much they would willingly sabotage the platform as punishment (although forcing Uplay is punishment enough, honestly) 2. They deliberately made it worse so that it wouldn't look superior to the "next...

    Minnesota Is the First State to Ban Antibacterial Soap With Triclosan

    So apparently they didn't test the substance BEFORE allowing it to be sold on the market and are waiting until 2017 before something is done about it? Oh logic, where are you now?

    The Vanishing Act is a Movie Based on Malaysia Airlines Flight 370

    Hijacking is a pretty reasonable theory and probably the more likely event. All the tracking equipment was manually disabled before it crashed so someone clearly didn't want to be found. As far as the movie itself goes, it's pretty offensive to turn that tragedy into a piece of entertainment...

    Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare Gets Microtransactions

    The fact that this is happening 2 months later pretty much proves they always planned to have microtransactions. Leaving them out just for the sake of good reviews and tricking consumers. Good show EA, even you realise people hate microtransactions.

    Half-Life Speedrun Sets Amazing New Record

    Am I the only one who thinks a "speedrun" should mean the time it takes to beat a game in one sitting? Glitches are also a grey area since you're not playing the game legitimately.

    Dog Detects Cancer in Owner's Body Before Medical Scans, Saves Life

    They also had that story of the nursing home cat who knew which old person was going to die next and would lie next to them. It was pretty much a feline grim reaper, telling you that only had hours left to live. Equal parts terrifying and fascinating...
