    Is it your own responsibility to avoid spoilers?

    i'd say yes if its sign posted, dont try and read all the non-spoilery bit of a thread if it has spoilers in the title

    Resident Evil: Where do we go from here?

    I think they should use all new characters jake and sherry to me can be kept, jake is new and sherry isn't but stopped being an incidental character everyone else at this point is too combat heavy to be challenged by zombies Rebooting causes two problems, it feel like the old...

    So i finally got around to Dragon Age II, not very happy with Bioware.

    while under developed overall it did a few things i really liked much longer term relationships building with a more flexible rivalry/friendship system as opposed to origins forcing you to be agreeable in spine bending ways to keep everyone on your side so they don't kill you or run away...

    Has Titanfall been successful?

    honestly i think the game is selling largely because its competition is pretty minimal I don't think its shifting hardware units like what a zelda or mario kart does for Nintendo hardware Again honestly i don't think Twitch numbers account for all that much, what sold the public on...

    "Transistor" seems to run just fine on Windows Vista 64...

    not been on the escapist for a long while but game page specs are just to protect the developer, it's not about what works but what will be technically supported by patches and customer service A developer won't give you a refund because it didn't work properly on WineHQ

    Sexual liberation

    humans have been having sex for a few million years now, so i'm not sure whatever classed as non-sexual liberation, humans don't seem to have ever not had sex in the past, and at 7 billion quite a lot of sex it would seem. I've seen the sluts/studs dynamic rolled out but it's completely...

    Assassin's Creed III Rap Gives the British a Beat (Down)

    i'm not convinced, how exactly do people expect a story set in America, during a war America was in, fought by Americans that was successful, to not be nominally pro american(i.e them winning historically), without doing something ahistorical like having them lose. I can't think of anyone in...

    Dragon Age III Details

    i'm optimistic for the game indirect choice transfer seems sensible considering how badly the plot flags were broken from dao, i remember this kind of stuff anyway, even allows for experimentation, i don't have time for all the permutations as a legit save file. Personally i think...

    Do you think a game that sexualizes a Male Main character would sell?

    they clearly accentuated the buttocks Maximum buttocks http://tgip.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/botp.jpg?w=450&h=520 not the only game

    I thought both were rubbish E Stone didn't save the amazing spider man, it's a weak veto

    Are Women Tournaments Sexist?

    I don't think it's sexist and i can't really say that i've seen much tornaments that actually bother with such things anyway it seems more academic than a real problem where are the masses of these segregated leagues

    Vulnerability - The sign of a good character?

    Well it depends on what you do with it, a weakness can be used for different purposes, the weakness of Alcatraz in crysis 2 the second the nanosuit fails, which happens a few times lends a tragic edge to the character, the power fantasy breaks down making you as weak as a kitten after having...

    The Hunger Games; I just don't get it...

    honestly the hunger games seems a fairly inconsequential series, it doesn't seem that incredibly popular, look at how by-the-numbers the movie was, it wouldn't surprise me me to see the movies drop off just like how the movies set on "his dark materials" didn't take off after "the golden...

    Gender challenge

    How do you know she hasn't had surgery in fact you already identify that at least some female body builders do get implants (otherwise you would have no visual reference point) The discrepancy could even be a driving force to get breast implants due to having less of the normally defined...

    Gender challenge

    For the first point i'm going to submit "What's that, Father? Teach them about fire. Well, if you insist." On point 2 I struggle, i'm not sure the question makes sense Men don't have much in common with women when it comes to personal attractiveness, no direct parallel exists when...
