    What are your top 10 FPS of all time?

    I'll keep it to straight shooters rather than RPG hybrids, despite Deus Ex being my favorite game of all time. 1: Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare - When I finished this game my first thought was 'That is the best shooter I have played in a decade'. Mechanically amazing, visually impressive, a...

    About 25% of Americans Don't Know the Earth Revolves Around the Sun

    To be fair, the universe did not begin with a giant explosion. That is a gross simplification of the singularity event in which our own universe and a possible infinite number of other universes reached their current state. But that event set in motion all of the laws and dimensions of our...

    Poll: Windows 8

    I upgraded to Win 8 basically as soon as it came out, but that might be because I work in PC retail and it was sort of necessary for me to know my way around the system. I don't get people saying there's no start button or start menu, because if you move your mouse to the bottom corner where the...

    Antichamber Arrives Later This Month

    I went to uni with Alex and played the first version of this game, back when it was called Hazard. He has been working on it full time since then and if Hazard was anything to go by then Antichamber will be fucking amazing. I get exactly what he means by the puzzle in the game, those things...

    The Five games that define you as a gamer

    Deus Ex: In my opinion one of the best games ever made. The complexity of almost every character, the choices you could make, the different ways you could play, the amazing storyline incorporating science fiction, gothic grandeur, philosophy and conspiracies. I have played through it so many...

    Craziest/ supidest theories you have ever heard

    I had a guy at my uni whole fully believed in Time Cube, and if you didn't believe in it you just weren't intelligent enough basically. Unfortunately he travelled to America to meet the founder of the movement, who told him he was crazy and hurting the cause. So after he got back to Aus he...

    The last RPG you played... that WASN'T Skyrim

    I think the last one I played was Planescape: Torment, and I'm so happy that game still works on Windows 7.

    What makes Bioshock One so amazing?

    Similar to Jedi Outcast versus Jedi Academy. The former being one of the best Star Wars games ever made, with fantastic story, characters, pacing and you are a FUCKING JEDI. Then Jedi Academy came out and it was basically just lame, but had must more fluid controls, more lightsaber combos, and...

    Poll: Battlefield 3: PC or 360?

    wow, I'm really shocked to see PC dominating. I love PC gaming and have always considered it the best platform for most genres, and I love to see others still feel the same.

    Games that should have never existed.

    Soldier of Fortune: Payback (was one of the most poorly made FPS games ever made) Crysis 2 (Should have been made, but should have been made well) Every single 'Mario plays this sport" title (Pretty self explanatory) Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (Story was OK, but the gameplay was fucking...

    Poll: Who Do You Think is Best RPGs Between Bioware, Square Enix, and Bethesda?

    Black Isle made the best RPGs ever. Baldur's gate, Planescape Torment, Baldur's Gate II, Icewind Dale. And BioWare worked with them back in the heyday of RPGs, so my vote goes with them. They've also made Mass Effect, Dragon Age was awesome because it was basically Baldur's gate again in 3D.
