    Poll: Am I the only one sick of being told ot "Google it." when asking about ANYTHING?

    Are you speaking ill of people who may have actual social disorders? As someone with mild SAD, and who knows someone with rather extreme SAD, I can say that that is somewhat rude. On topic: I've actually never heard this first-hand. Could be I've gotten lucky in my associations, but more...

    Worst Driver(s) You Have Experienced

    Every Washington state driver. I'm not sure who first decided that EVERY SINGLE rule of the road/traffic law was really more of a guideline, or who decided that it wasn't even a guideline, or why everybody else decided to start thinking the same thing, but Washington is the only state I've been...

    So... Borderlands Pre Sequel. Gearbox milking the ip like Atlus with Persona

    I'm sorry, are you saying that the interface between two games must change in order for the second game to be a 'new' game? I find that to be a somewhat absurd notion. By that logic, Fallout New Vegas could have been DLC for Fallout 3. Halos 2 and 3 are just Content packs for CE. Heck, Starcraft...

    Simplest challenge in the world: Introduce the internet. Mos Eisley was voted one of the Galaxy's Top 10 places to live, before the internet was introduced.

    Most Bizarre Errors You Constantly See

    I feel like people are getting a little too worked up over these things, but that may just be me. Also this. Pretty sure Frankenstein had not the resources to grow a monster from some of his flesh in a vat. Not that growing a monster from a bunch of stitched-together dead things does not...

    What if GTAV sucks?

    Well, if they can fix the driving that'd be nigh infinitely better than 4. Every time I feel like playing 4, I see San Andreas/3/VC (In that order) next to it and choose one of those instead. And that makes the driving in 4 seem even worse. It's a vicious cycle that hasn't seen much love for 4.

    LoL and the surrender button.

    I've been opposed to the surrender button since its inception. It promotes a wrong way of thinking. "Oh, I'm losing. Well, I don't want to waste any of my precious, precious time, so I'll cut this game early by giving up. Now this is only a 25 minutes game!" "Oh, now I'm winning, awesome! Even...

    Dead Rising 3 Ditches The Race Against The Clock

    Yeah. Which is exactly what I did. I'm not sure what you think I was saying, but to clear this up a little: Tried Fallout 1, didn't like the gameplay, stopped playing. Saw Dead Rising 2 on Steam, wanted to buy it, but was turned off by the timer. Didn't purchase. Both examples of me not playing...

    Dead Rising 3 Ditches The Race Against The Clock

    I play about 10 minutes of the original Fallout and quickly grew disinterested. Again, my gaming time is valuable to me, I don't like wasting it if I can help it. It was a shame too, because I really wanted to go through FO1 and 2 for the story.

    Dead Rising 3 Ditches The Race Against The Clock

    To be honest the timer was the thing keeping me from buying DR2 over multiple Steam sales. Glad they're getting rid of it. To those who like the timer: I get it. You liked the timer. And it looks as though it'll be a feature in the nightmare mode. However, when you attack those of us who...

    Microsoft Exec: "If You're Backwards Compatible, You're Really Backwards"

    Well of course it doesn't have backwards compatibility, nobody is playing original XBox games anymore. Now I assume the XBox 1 is the spiritual predecessor of the 360, correct? Otherwise why would the 360 be XBox 2pi, while this is XBox 1pi. It just wouldn't make any sense. I'm just waiting for...

    Why do people just ignore road rules?

    It's the lack of turn-signal that gets me every time. Everything would be so much easier if I knew you were going to turn illegally and threaten my very existence, rather than surprising me with a left turn from a right-turn only lane.

    What Aspect of Gaming Would You Like to See Improved?

    Trolling. It needs to stop. Terrible communities is a close second. Poor sportsmanship has become A-Okay in gaming, and that makes me sad. I once played out a DotA match where my entire team left. And I loved it. My teammates had been complaining the entire game. When they all left I actually...

    Arkham Horror,

    Losing whilst doing well is a very distinct possibility, especially when you start adding in expansions. I'd recommend getting and playing the base game, seeing how you feel about it, before even attempting the expansions. Heck, the base game itself is a large investment, though I will always...

    Poll: Your Favorite Variety of Sword In Gaming

    I think the sword you're looking for is Callandor, and its not actually made of light, it just glows real bright when used for it's intended purpose. All purposeful misunderstandings aside, I prefer a good Bastard Sword. Usable in a sword + shield combo, or two-handed by itself, the Bastard...
