    The Great Debate

    I do not get it. If one posts a youtube video with the comment section disable, it doesn't mean that one killed the debate. You have the WHOLE internet to share your ideas on the topic: you can upload a video to not only youtube, but vimeo and other media sharing sites, you can discuss it here...

    Escapist Podcast: 089: Religion in BioShock, David Jaffe and Playing Nice

    Most people don't know how to debate, to hear an argument and try to argument back (if possible), or to respect issues that cannot be discussed (for whatever reason). About the religious dude, I can respect his reasons, I can debate if he is right or not, but I don't see any reason for being...

    Escapist Podcast: 083: SimCity, Story-Based RPGs and Google Glass

    Why is Susan so mad about the definition of "literally"? Isn't the word meaning a consensus among the speakers of that language? Something is right or wrong depending on the overall consensus of the people.

    Zero Punctuation: Dead Space 3

    I think survivor horror co-op COULD work if you and your buddy were not all the time together in the same room, but solving puzzles that require simultaneity and only join forces in key moments, like running like hell from big bad boss...

    The Big Picture: Is The Hobbit Too Long?

    Short answer: no. Long answer: nooooooooo. To me the length of epic movies such as LotR and The Hobbit helps to create that feeling that the world is big and events take a lot of time to happen... Middle earth is huge, and it took 2 year (I think) to get the ring from the Shire to Mt. Doom...

    Zero Punctuation: Top 5 of 2012

    It's not about changing the world... I just don't why people come up with these examples, as if I wanted to stop the infection or save every one from death. In some parts of the game, you have a illusion of choice, 'cause it won't matter what you do, you get the same result. The problem...
