    Well I'm depressed now.

    It is a very poor article, to say the least.

    Warhammer Fantasy and 40k connected somehow: thoughts?

    Pretty sure it was implied in old canon that this was the case.

    Easier games are more fun!

    I play games on the middle setting at first, then go easy or hard depending on my mood. One of my favorite games on the hardest setting is Halo 2 of all things. I have a morbid fascination with the insta death snipers and machine gun firing rate of the plasma pistols, probably because its so...

    Games you never finished and why.

    Timeshift- bland and boring. The Darkness- I actually enjoyed it for whatever reason, but I only rented it and didn't want to shell out again.

    Videogame sequels

    Posting a little gem someone made that I found: "Look , i like gears of war 3.... BUT ITS NOT GEARS OF WAR games like halo and gears are unlike games like crackdown or crysis or unreal tournament... instead of adding to gameplay, they remake it everytime.... i can say i dont like gears...

    Gears of War 3 Beta experience

    I was able to play this weekend. Overall a very well polished beta so far. The sawed off has really curbed the rushers reliance of shotgun duels for the most part. The only really glaring issues I've noticed are that the elephant gun on trenches disappears when you drop it in cover and the way...

    Jar Jar Binks Gets Beaten Up On The New York Subway

    Harassing people on a New York subway? What did they think was going to happen? Even so, the men who assaulted him should be jailed.

    New "Shockwave" Engine Design Solves Energy Crisis

    If that 90 percent figure is true then this is a very significant development.

    I always did tell my WoW playing friends that they were essentially physical-god slaying vagrants...

    Ninja Gaiden 3 Teaser Trailer Stabs You in the Face

    Enemies in Ninja Gaiden have a reputation for being murderously persistent. You were probably just getting your bearings before grabbing on to him and detonating the explosives on your body. That said I am excited, even though the trailer shows me nothing. Blast.

    Your Gaming Unicorn

    The red dragon from golden axe. He shot fireballs and only appeared in, like, one level. We'd always scramble away from our fight with skeletons and assorted bad guys to reach it. But it would always run away.

    Closet gamer - Video games you would rather die than admit to have enjoyed playing

    Nothing really, I'm proud to admit. Violated Heroine may have made the list but I never bothered with downloading it (to say nothing of making the finicky piece of shit work on a Western PC).

    Tales of Douche-Baggery (in games)
