    Humble Indie Bundle 5 Is Objectively The Best Thing

    You bet your ass I bought that! Humble Bundles are the only real time I buy games these days. I checked my email using my phone while laying half awake this morning, and thought I must have been dreaming until I double-checked it just now. What an amazing anthology of games.

    Australia Asks About High Game Prices

    The last AAA title I bought new off a shelf was a Red Faction and Red Faction 2 double pack from GAME last week for $2. It was glorious, even the signage was up for sale. The last one before that... I don't even know. I bought Settlers of Catan and an expansion with 3 friends about a month...

    The Settlers of Catan

    What a co-incidence. I just happen to have put a copy on lay-by at a game shop on a copy of it and the 5-6 player expansion earlier today. Never played before. Keen to give it a go.

    Buy-Out Saves British Retailer GAME

    I walked into a GAME store at the shopping centre I work in on Wednesday. They had the lights dimmed, nobody had any energy, and they were clearing the hell out of all their pre-owned games. It felt terrible to be in there, and I bought DOW:WA for $3 and a Red Faction 1&2 double pack for...

    How do you feel about the fight against Used Sales?

    Eh. In Australia, we can import games for a cheaper price than the retailers can offer used titles in every case, without qualification.

    Creative Assembly Now Has No Excuse For Holding Off On America:Total War

    Just so long as one day there is either a mod or an official release of the storming of the Eureka Stockade where you can play as the rebels, I'll be happy, lol.

    The Big Picture: Mailbag

    Ah, so this is what The Escapist is going to do until they get the guy who does the Errant Signal show on Youtube on to do Thursdays? Sounds good either way. It would be interesting to have two Bob-like people on the site for more plurality. P.S, Escapist, if you're not looking at signing...

    Microsoft Xbox needs to die.

    Welp, I had one Xbox stop working by a non-RROD problem while it was under an extended warranty and got a whole new one shipped with free games and controllers. that one has been going for at least 3 years now with no problems. I don't use XBox Live, so I have nothing to complain about...

    Bad at Porn?

    This is where I would say "YES! ALICE IN WONDERLAND: AN X-RATED MUSICAL FANTASY" But the costumes are so good, and the whole movie is such a fun idea. And I have no idea to this day how the the rabbit has managed to not become a meme yet.

    Jimquisition: Piracy Episode One - Copyright

    Pardon? Jim's own words, not mine sir. By backflipping and now disagreeing with what he said, he is now what he described as 'as bad as OJ Simpson'. I think you should look to try and understand the context of a comment before projecting your own onto it.

    Poll: Should The Escapist build a mobile site so we can get our fix on the go?

    I sometimes browse on my phone in the mornings just before work, and the frontpage takes an eternity to load. It would be a lot more convenient and I definitely would use it.

    "If you disagree with that, fuck off, ya fuckin' thief. Worse than OJ Simpson. That's what you are, worse than OJ Simpson." You are now worse than OJ Simpson, Jim.
