    Aww man why'd they ruin it?!

    The Phalanx from Mass Effect 2 to Mass Effect 3. Such a beautifully designed, perfectly balanced pistol that worked incredibly well with a power-based character. Not to forget the gorgeous blue lasersight. It wasn't terribly ineffective either and the slow but heavy fire modus gave me very...

    The Other Culturally insensitive aspect of Far Cry 4's Box Art

    Why is it culturally insensitive? That's like a bad guy killing a priest or burning a cross. Yes, that's a dick move but he's supposed to do that. He's the villain. Now, focus your righteous energy and blast him away! It's time somebody makes a white middle-class politically correct...

    Which is better,which is overrated. Bioshock infinite vs the last of us

    I think both games are underrated now due to their overrated status. Which coincides with some truly overrated game critics underrating these games and most underrated game critics overrating them. I give this topic a five out of six apples and two out of twelve oranges.

    Tell me why I shouldn't give up on Arrow

    I've had the same experience. I simply continued watching it because it's a show about Green Arrow. The first half of season 1 sucked, the second half was okay with some great action and some cringeworthy dialogue/acting and Season 2 is where i imagine the most praise comes from. That's where...

    Gamer Girls Magazine - Demeaning, sexist and racist!

    Don't get the problem. It's just silly, immature PG-13 pornography. Nobody is getting hurt by this except the models' careers.

    Poll: Would you be interested in playing as an animal in a game?

    And i'm not talking about Sonic or Donkey Kong. No, a real animal. Everybody likes tigers, right? So you'd be a tiger, doing tiger things. You'd have an open world without any traditional objectives or missions. The only thing you'd have to care about would be survival. Hunting & fighting...

    Politics in games - are some subjects too controversial?

    I don't think there is any subject that shouldn't be touched with a 10 foot pole. Just make sure you treat every subject matter sensibly and intelligently. For example, the topic of war crimes. Spec Ops: The Line did it extremely well and made you question some things about shooters and video...

    Why isn't there digital game rentals?

    Knowing the games industry, this'll be their way of making us pay for demos straight up. I cringe at the thought of that. However, if we're talking about full access to a game for a limited number of weeks/days, i'm all in. It would force many devs to expand the length of their single-player...

    Escape to the Movies: You Are Wrong About Spider-Man 3

    Haven't seen the latest Spidey flick yet but from what i remember, all four movies were solid entertainment. The first two Raimi movies could be objectively called good movies (my standard for "great" is a lot higher, though), i guess. Each film had their flaws (some more than others) but in the...

    Does Javik add alot to the lore of the game? Is Omega worth it? (Mass Effect 3)

    Omega is similiar to Leviathan. It focuses on story and plot, has some neat new gameplay mechanics/mini-games, enemy types or weapons/powers. It really depends if you like Aria and the Omega missions from ME2, though. However, you can't take any squadmates with you and can't leave until you've...

    Does not having all DLC for a game hamper your enjoyment?

    No. For me, DLC is always an afterthought and in most cases bought after completing the game. It's pretty much the other way around, really. If a game is great and lots of fun, i'll consider buying DLC. It also should not be required to enjoy a game properly unless it's free. However, there...
