    Women: Do you consider yourself superior to men?

    There's a lot of negative association with the term "feminist," I think they need a new term. But in general the more extreme members of any group will get the most attention. Regardless, I don't generally consider myself superior to men. To think that women are automatically better than men...

    Your Stupidest Moment in Gaming

    I have to say it's a tie between 2 incidents. The first was during Blood Omen 2, in the level after the first boss. I came out of the sewers & couldn't find where to go next. I searched & searched, but eventually died from having no one to feed on. It took me forever to realize I was supposed to...

    Your name has now been changed to your username

    It'd be okay. My middle name is in my username, so it's not completely different. But I'd get annoyed having to explain all the time that it has nothing to do with the band Iron Maiden.

    Gay Gamers Want Dragon Age 2 Writer Fired

    I don't think it's an anti-gay issue. Replaying the scene in question, I believe it's just how the writers chose to display Anders. Playing through as a female character, you also gain rivalry points if you tell Anders not to flirt with you after completing his recruitment quest. Because the...

    Poll: Do you watch "Let's Play" type videos?

    I watch Let's Play's for 2 reasons: either I don't have access to the game (in which case I watch a silent playthrough) or because the commentary is amusing.

    The Most Horrific Pain of Your Life

    When I had to get a spinal tap in high school. For a week after I couldn't lift my head without it feeling like my head was going to explode.

    Poll: Opinion of Vaccination?

    It used to be that your kid couldn't go to school if their immunizations weren't up to date. Now I guess the schools got tired of arguing with parents. There's a reason people are required to get vaccines: because they work. If they were dangerous you'd have a lot more people with...

    Poll: Are you skinny, fat, or fit?

    Nice to see a wide spread of body types. I'd classify myself as fit with room for improvement.

    Poll: What Do You Wear To Bed?

    I usually sleep in bumming around clothes, like track pants & a on old t-shirt or tanktop. If I'm too tired to change into those, I'll sleep in my underwear. But I've never owned a proper pair of pajamas.

    The better Bioware RPG?

    Personally, I liked Mass Effect 2 better, but they're both great games. However, since you haven't played Mass Effect yet, I'd recommend getting Origins. You can play Mass Effect 2 without having played the first one, but it'll spoil it. Also, Origins is a more traditional RPG. So my...

    On the Katana and it's wielder.

    I think it's hard to compare different styles of swords because each is made for a specific purpose. Katana were intended to slice into enemies, even hack their limbs off. I think part of the katana's popularity is because it's engrained in Japanese culture, and so the Japanese use it a lot when...

    Does it always have to cost to be good?

    I guess the idea is that the "evil" path is supposed to be the easier, quicker way. In Fable 3, they were trying to force you to decide if you wanted to take the "good" path & honor your promises yet risk the lives of the people, or take the "evil" path & break your promises yet save more...

    Negative turning point for your favorite video game.

    Indigo Prophecy: After the amusement park level. It's like they left out a few stages before the final levels. I mean, I was expecting some kind of romance between Lucas & Carla, but it's tied in awkwardly. One scene Lucas is hiding in Carla's apartment, the next they're in bed together. Before...

    Best pick-up line.

    How about just "Hi, my name's (whatever)"? She'll be so impressed that you didn't use some lame pick up line, she might actually talk to you.

    Am I the only one who liked Divinity II's ending?

    It seems like in almost every review or discussion of Divinity II, everyone always says how much they hated the ending. Personally, I rather liked it. I haven't played the expansion yet, so as far as I'm concerned the game ends with the player unintentionally helping the villians and destroying...
