    NBC fires Donald Trump

    Was about to mention that the quote was modified, however how does adding in the "..and some I assume are good people." portion make him more in hot water? It states clearly that in his thought process he probably realized that some people are going to think that he said all Mexicans are evil...

    Bethesda's E3 presentation and Fallout 4

    Kk, just saying this now. The scientific gay population count is only 3.4% (I"m counting the other and not-sure stuff as well since I feel the number still more than qualifies it) of the population. Now if we take a rough guess lets say another 5% are actually gay as well but are hiding it or...

    Will this rig run games well?

    Planetside 2 never plays well with AMD processors. I had one that more than met the recommended requirements and could never get above 50 fps when sitting still at warpgate. Got an i5 for roughly the same specs and I sit pretty at 60 fps in all but the most chaotic battles.

    Characters you find yourself immediately liking

    Really? No ones gonna mention the most manliest man in the history of gaming? Fine I will, mutha trucker Barry Burton from RE. The man was a family man through and trhough, doing whatever he could to protect them. Also that time line about Jill and a sanwhich; classic. You can't find a better...

    Irish Slavery as abused in Social Justice Discourse.

    Not to mention that every race in existence in europe was enslaved at one point by the romans. Except perhaps those in eastern asia, who enslaved their own people. Then those of the americas enslaved eachother. Therefore not a single race out there hasn't been enslaved. So citing slavery as to...

    PC Games you are surprised aren't digitally available?

    These ones I believe are abandonware and you can find them on abandonware sites. I have personally done 25th anniversary. The Dune games are there as well.

    What was the worst game that you pre-ordered?

    X:Rebirth comes to mind as it was buggy as hell, ran like crap and hardly any of the features that were said to be in it were barely fleshed out. Hell it took them 2 months to get trade working properly. That and the "everything comes from something" was obviously not there. Nothing you did...

    PC peeps. Need your help.

    Yeah best course of action is to take it to a tech or at least someone who has skills with this sort of thing. I do the tech support of my whole family and I can tell you most people do not have the patience, knowledge or spare parts to determine computer issues. Lucky for me I've built up a...

    Three franchises you'd fund a sequel for - three franchises you'd bury in a dank, dark pit

    Rez: S.t.a.l.k.e.r. for all reasons stated above. x universe instead of this crappy rebirth. KOTOR for all reasons above. Bury: COD since it comes out too often too much with no real substance. Assasins Creed for same reason. All games based on movies since theyre riding hype and are...

    Escapist's Day Jobs

    I work as a surveillance operator for a casino. Job is pretty kush but boring. Do the exact same things everyday and after a certain point in the day I have nothing to do. Do get to do some investigative work for the state police or feds from time to time otherwise its just watching for...

    Towns and Stardrive

    The reason why Stardrive moved on was that the engine was limiting and made it harder to do multiplayer while maintaining decent game speed.

    Anti-gun control people, where would you draw the line?

    I always find it funny how one side thinks the other side should have no rights at all. Take a moment in my shoes, say Pro-gun rights people wanted the same thing that gun-control people want. Instead of taking away guns, they want to force them into the hands of every man, woman, and child...

    Poll: Skyrim Spiders vs. Minecraft spiders

    Try a Skyrim spider with War in Skyrim mod. The poison nearly drains you straight down to hell. They one-shot my companion, and that is still while I'm at long to mid-range! They're only easy to kill if you can get close enough to one so instead of a one-hit poisoned death, you can at least...

    "God I'm old" moments

    When I realize that kids born the year I got my very first cat are allowed to smoke, and in the winter was when I visited Disney World. When I mention how lazy children are, they can just go in the internet and find answers to math problems, I had to work them out by hand, without a...

    Ever gotten a death/violent threat online?

    I give and receive death threats all the time, generally it's part of my normal speech, in real life and out of it. People just know it's my personality is all. I never actually attack anyone, and if someone does decide to throw a blow against me, they learn that even though I actively protray a...
