    To the people saying that Live could be breached like Sony.

    Is it just me, or does this guy seem like he's trying way too hard to rationalize a trivial point that's rarely brought up? You sound a bit insecure with your platform bro.

    Poll: jim rome: douche bag or not?

    He's pretty cool, has good days and bad ones. I don't know why but I thought this was really funny. He's obviously projecting from some past experience. I like ATH/PTI more though. Also surprised anyone here pays attention to sports.

    If I sneak into Disneyland, is it theft?

    The vast majority of games have free demos, and at the very least you can find gameplay videos/reviews online. In my experience people who say this rarely at best actually follow up on buying the game, but have delusions of moral integrity nonetheless.

    Poll: Which is the most significant gaming device?

    Ok, let me rephrase. You have organized a list, but the list itself is entirely arbitrary. Better? You're combining some consoles (all playstations) and dividing others (NES and Wii) while missing even more (the N64), and I don't even see the words Atari or Sega. Also how do you get ONLY FOR...

    Poll: Which is the most significant gaming device?

    You need to divide it into more than just "playstation, xbox, NES etc". Why are half the Nintendo consoles in their own category while the Sony and Microsoft ones are divided? The 360 was "significantly" more popular than the original, but they're lumped together? And why are the Wii and NES...

    Poll: If you could become a Jedi but with a catch.

    Surprised only one other person picked legion of soldiers. Yeah the force would be the only one that would probably ever be useful, but come on, think of how many third world countries you could take over with a highly advanced PMC of futuristic soldiers? Plus that basically comes with a ton of...

    Is the Metal Gear Solid series overrated?

    You sound like you have ADD and would be better served playing Modern Warfare 2 than MGS. Personally MGS4 was the first complete MGS I played and I thought both the gameplay was great and the cutscenes were interesting albeit occasionally confusing. You don't even have to watch them, it's still...

    Heroes of Newerth 2.0 comes after Starcraft 2 and League of Legends

    DotA wasn't even close to reaching its full potential until Icefrog took over, and Icefrog actually helped develop HoN. Honestly in terms of gameplay and balance, Guinsoo and Pendragon were fairly insignificant. And Hon and LoL are only "virtually the same game" the way AoE and Starcraft are...

    Google Prepares Piracy Crackdown

    Notice how he says consumers not customers. Obviously intentional, possibly edited. Hypocrisy is probably the most disgusting trait, and self-righteous internet pirates are idiots. But this is must just be the mean old government and huge corporations beating up on the little guy, because...

    PS3 or 360? (Not a VS. Thread!)

    Lol at all the 360 recommendations, makes it hard to believe anyone read his post. He owns a PC and doesn't plan on using the console for internet play. Which means he won't be paying for xbox live. Most xbox "exclusives" such as portal, mass effect, half life etc. are already available on the...

    Sarah palin mistakes north korea for an ally

    Obviously, because idiotic women who are also rich, but not republicans are loved and respected by the press, including such role models as Paris Hilton. Honestly what's with this double standard Republicans have where they believe that everyone criticizing them is a liberal elitist out to...

    ati vs nvidia

    Really? Every poster before you put up facts and specs, and then you have to ruin it with blatant unbacked fanboyism. So...

    Crytek: PCs Are a Generation Ahead of Consoles

    Except PC gaming isn't just visuals. Better controls, user made content instead of DLC bullshit, larger and more DIVERSE (anyone up for Generic shooter #17?) library etc. And the fact is you probably paid 2 to 3 times as much for your console/TV combination as you would for a decent PC. But...

    Billy Bob Blames Games for the Sorry State of Hollywood

    Implying everything in Hollywood isn't extreme exaggeration catering to target audiences for the sole purpose of maximizing profits. I could make the same argument about how movies ruined books, but I'd look like a conceited douche who's mad because his movies aren't doing well. If Mr...
