    A wild "Epic Poster" appeared!

    I haven't posted here in months and I also received the Epic Poster badge. I guess I'm just that good.

    Poll: Would you buy a console without ability to sell used games?

    I don't buy or sell used games so it wouldn't really affect me directly. Still though, I used to trade in games all the time as a kid (for up to something like a whopping $5 a game!) and I support the idea of buying/selling used games. So I'd like to think I wouldn't buy the console on principle...

    The Walking Dead, absolutely the best game of 2012

    It drove me crazy at times but The Walking Dead was definitely one of my favourites this year. The gameplay certainly was minimal, but I was fine with that and it was still a lot of fun. My biggest problem with it was how it seemed to emphasize choice yet didn't hold you accountable for them...

    The Escapist's Game of the Year Voting Has Closed

    Hmmm.... it'll be interesting to see what it is. My guess is either Journey or The Walking Dead but, personally, I'm hoping Mass Effect 3 takes it. I think there might have been a few people who didn't like it though, so I won't be surprised if it doesn't win.

    Best/Favorite Intro Cinematics.

    The Witcher 2 intro cinematic was pretty badass. And although it might not be the best, the Ace Combat 5 intro is still my favourite.

    Poll: Having a "thumbs-up" function on the Escapist, yes or no?

    Ehhh.... I don't think so. I've seen some forums where it works okay and I don't think it'd be as bad as everyone seems to be making it out to be, but it could hinder discussion and I don't really think it's necessary.

    Rebuild of Superpowers Getting Thread

    Necron Physiology [http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Necron_Physiology] "User with this ability either is or can transform into a Necron, race of robotic skeletal warriors" That's actually pretty cool. As someone who works in the tech industry, the "technological prowess" that comes with...

    Please type your accent phonetically

    I live in the Canadian Maritimes but thankfully I've been able to avoid adopting the Maritime accent. It sounds something like an Irish accent, with the main difference being that an Irish accent is awesome. I don't know why but the way people talk here just drives me crazy. Anyway, I'm not...

    Molyneux's Godus is a Go

    I'm really glad to see it's reached it's goal. I am absolutely broke at the moment so I wasn't able to pledge any money, but I like god games and it looks like it could be a fun. I've been hurt by Mr. Molyneux before though, so I'm still a little skeptical at the moment.

    How do you take being beat by a girl On games?

    I've never actually been beaten by a girl (that I know of) but I imagine I wouldn't be any more upset than if I'd lost to a guy. It'd actually be kind of cool to lose to a girl since I've never (knowingly) played against a girl who was good at games. I know they exist though and I'm sure there...

    Why is Summer SO hot?

    I live in Canada... so uh... not hot. Though it hasn't been very cold where I live. It's been just a bit below zero lately.

    Who's your best Escapist friend?

    No friends here... yet... well, ever probably. I'm not very good at making friends. For example, today I played Journey for the first time, came across another player, felt uncomfortable and decided to play offline by myself... Honestly, I'd be surprised if I ever got to the point where...
