    Good Old Reviews: Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri

    I spent/wasted/invested so much time into Alpha Centauri. I've thought for years it had one of the best unit creation systems. The ability to custom design a unit to serve exactly the tactical function you need it for always felt like such a move forward in strategy gaming. I'm surprised more...

    Pacific Rim Gets Tesla Coil Tribute

    I don't know the exact science behind it. But, basically, by adjusting the voltage you can adjust the pitch. They use a computer to control the timing and voltage.

    John Carmack "Spearheading" Mobile Development At Oculus VR

    Do you own a Nintendo DS? How often do you need to look at the touchscreen to input commands? Especially once you've gotten the control scheme down to muscle memory? The touchscreen on the phone/tablet IS THE CONTROLLER!

    No Right Answer: Best Candy Ever

    Hershey's Special Dark. There is nothing superior. (Except maybe Godiva Dark)

    the silly joke thread

    Why did the chicken cross the road? To prove the the possum that it could be done. Did you hear about the guy who's entire left side as cut off? He's alright now. What about the guy who got an eyeball transplant from a rooster? He's been cockeyed ever since. The guy who invented the...

    Poll: busted spank'n the monkey

    My sister walked in the room while I was right in the middle of an orgasm once. Fortunately, I was in bed, under a blanket, and it was kinda dark. So, I just rolled over, told her to GTFO, and let me "Sleep." She had no idea... I hope. ;>.>

    So, you have mastered teleportation...

    1. Rampant mischief, misconduct, and hijinks of the misdemeanor variety. (mostly) 2. I'd travel the world on my own terms. Ya'know, see the sights. (Especially the ones I'm not supposed to.) 3. Drop a letter offering my services onto Barack Obama's desk in the Oval Office. Then GTFO before...

    Learning To Use Your Hands: Surgeon Simulator & Disability

    Reading this article is like looking in the mirror. I've never been able to write legibly. It started out fairly innocuously. I couldn't get my letters right. They were too big, too small, backwards, squiggly in the parts where they were supposed to be straight and vice versa. While others...

    Jimquisition: Fee to Pay

    I've been playing a lot of Firefall recently. Their F2P model is about perfect in my opinion. You can unlock everything of worth in the game purely through normal gameplay. Of course, you can unlock it faster with "Red Beans" the purchased in-game currency but you really don't have to. The only...

    Poll: Significance of dreams

    My dreams are equal parts bat shit random and boringly mundane. Flying a giant green teddy bear over a church bell tower made entirely out of caterpillars and butterflies, or a wondering around small backyard garden. There always seems to be something a little bit "Off" in the mundane ones...

    Sony Teases Mysterious "When Worlds Collide" Image

    What I would like this to be is true cross console multiplayer similar to what SquareEnix has been doing with the Final Fantasy MMOs. The kind where is doesn't matter if you and your friends all play on PS4, Xbone, or PC. You can still play with each other. But, I doubt Sony and MS will ever...

    Update: PlayStation 4's Appearance Finally Unveiled

    No online check-ins. Freely buy/sell/trade used games. $100 less then the Xbox One. I don't give a fuck if it's shaped like a turgid meat dongle. SOLD!

    Destiny Gameplay Debut Brings Out the Big Guns

    I'm fairly optimistic about this one. Bungie's got a reputation for solid shooter mechanics. Feels a lot like Borderlands. Which is good thing. Love that game.
