    When did films become glorified commercials?

    Ok, when you say "LIFE magazine the movie", I assume you mean "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty", correct? It's an adaptation of a 1939 James Thurber short story about a man who daydreams a lot. That is no way a commercial for LIFE magazine. The fact that Mitty works for LIFE magazine is...

    Historical periods that are barely ever explored in games

    I'd love to see something set in Shaka-era south Africa, a horror game in WWI, or anything set in the Siege of Sarajevo in the 1990s. Biggest siege of a capital in modern history, and yet untouched by a medium that could do it justice.

    GTA VI: London....my idea

    It ain't happening. GTA, like another open-world I know (hello Fallout) relies way too much on America for it's humor and storylines (i.e. gang culture in the 90s, the recent economic depression, the death of the American dream, etc.) It would just make no sense and GTA would lose a lot of...

    The Stanley Parable is... is... wow...

    You never once defined "gameplay". I'd like you to do so. OT: Looks interesting enough. I mean, if I get it (probably will), I'll be going in blind, so there's that.

    You should totally buy The Wolf Among Us

    This was my thinking. Well, except for the first head. That, to me, seems legitimate. And if if isn't then they've got me fooled. I just think that there were multiple points immediately prior to this particular incident, that could've made for a better ending that would've raised the...

    What IP should Telltale make into a game next?

    Sandman in particular would be at the very least interesting.

    You should totally buy The Wolf Among Us

    The ending to Episode 1 is a terrible, intelligence insulting, and needless attempt to raise the stakes. Anyway, GOTY? So far, no. It's great, not as good as TWD. Partially because of the aforementioned botched ending. Also, it's a point and click adventure game. They are, actually, a...

    What IP should Telltale make into a game next?

    With the huge success of The Walking Dead, and The Wolf Among Us, Telltale's riding on a bit of a high right now. My question to you is as follows: What non-gaming IP do you want to see Telltale to create a game out of next? And before you all scream "But they're busy! TWD: Season 2! The Wolf...

    GTA VI: Return to Vice City or No?

    Spoilers: GTA is America. Rockstar (fairly recently actually) said there will never be another GTA set outside the US. America is just too vital to the game's narrative for that to happen. Barring a return to Vice City, which I think is the most plausible choice, DC is an interesting...

    Music you listen to while you game, Match your Game to a song track!

    I usually listen to Dark Side of the Moon while I'm playing Civilization V. And I have no idea why.

    RAGE QUIT!!!! Any moments you have done it and why?

    There's a skip option. Yes, you have to die 3-5 times for it to pop up, but it's useful for things like that. OT: I'm disabled, more specifically congenital spastic right hemiplagia, a form of cerebral palsy. Which means I play with one hand. You can see where this is going, right? Good...

    Steam's Initial Release- 12 September 2003

    They'll have Half-Life 2 be Midweek Madness. I mean, it only makes sense. HL2 was the first game Valve released on Steam.

    List the worst game you have ever played.

    And it's the WORST game you've played? Granted, the standard gameplay's sort of the point, but that's not the point of my defense. Standard, somewhat good, and it's the worst game you've ever played? Hyperbolic. OT: Surgeon Simulator 2013. The game made my hand hurt for a week. Yep...
