    Biggest flaws in your favorite games?

    Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines - The graphics are shit Mass Effect Trilogy: The ending could have been better XCOM2: I can't stop from rage quitting when I'm playing ironman Master of Orion II: It is too old SOMA: It's a walking simulator... Hellblade: Gameplay was a bit shallow Alien...

    Your favorite song from a video game

    Not just great gameplay and inspiring graphics, but easily one of the best tunes on the Amiga 500. Groundbreaking graphics (for the time), amazing soundtrack but sadly dull gameplay. Can't get everything I suppose. Best soundtrack for a NES game ever. Like, ever. From the Angel-remix...

    Game Theory: Is the MMO Genre Dying?

    Uhm, Destiny did not cost 500 million to make. It is the amount of money Activision has assigned to Bungee for three games over the life of the franchise. http://www.gamespot.com/articles/destiny-budget-nowhere-near-500-million-bungie-says/1100-6420802/

    Can we stop referring the prequels as part of Star Wars canon already?

    Opinion: DOOM is Exactly as Violent and Bloody as It Should Be

    That trailer looks pretty rad. I'll play that for sure. I don't think that level of violence is particularly extreme, especially since it's all fantasy violence anyway.

    Smaller Devs Abused By Steam's "No Questions Asked" Refund Policy

    The single, best piece of consumer protection that steam has released to date, and you manage to find a couple of insignificant crap-pushing wingers to write about? This feature will pretty much fix the much maligned green light process. When unity crammers can't sell their filth without...

    Will Half-Life 3 Outlive Public Interest Because of Development Time?

    Well, I'm currently playing through Half Life 1 for the first time (in the Black Mesa remake/mod) and I think at least the first game holds up really well, I'm enjoying it immensely. I'll get back to you when I start on HL2.

    Escapist Podcast: 180: What We Want To See In Star Wars: Battlefront

    Well, here are few things we don't want to see: Microtransactions Day one dlc Dlc/pay to win gear that unbalances the game There is more, but if they stick to that, we are at least not off to a terrible start.

    Miracle of Sound: All As One (Dragon Age: Inquisition Music Video)

    I really like these power metal style songs you make Gav. You've got such a knack for it. If you would ever do a Iron Maiden/Dio/Black Sabbath/Rainbow inspired album, I would buy the shit out of it and tell all my friends how awesome it is. Because I presume it would/will be.

    Roberto Orci No Longer Directing Star Trek 3

    I don't see how there can even be a Star Trek three after they pretty much broke the whole premise of Star Trek in episode 2. They basically have to reboot the whole thing again.

    Uncivil War: Quake - Speed Run Finale!

    There are plenty of games that would woke quite well. Dirt 3: race game. Skyrim: take the same save game and see who can defeat a dragon the quickest with a realistic dragon mod installed. Payday 2: perform a heist with the AI the quickest. Duel each other in Chivalry. First five...

    Miracle of Sound: Shadow of the Ash (Shadow of Mordor Music Video)

    Nice one. Seems like I have to go and dig up my old hammerfall and blind guardian albums; this got the old power metal vein pumping.
