    Critical Miss: Top Five Games of 2012 #1

    Yay disagreeing! Crusader Kings 2 should have at least received an honorable mention. Grand Strategy with excellent longevity, tons of role-playing options that make the game personal and a fully organic environment that changes as you play along in interesting ways. A shame about the...

    So you're introducing someone to videogames. What games should you use?

    I recommend Portal, because that game is 80% tutorial, and it doesn't feel like one, it gradually introduces a very common control scheme, is light and witty, and most importantly, it is THE gateway "action" title. The person's reaction to Portal would be a good indicator of where to go next.

    Define Your Game In One Quote

    Recettear - "Capitalism, ho!" Because that line makes me smile all the time, and describes what goes on pretty well in that game.

    Skyrim spawns a meme.

    And now for something slightly different: "I took an arrow to the knee, but then I ate some oranges and it was k."

    What Race Do You Use In Skyrim? [And Why]

    2 Characters: Imperial Great Sword wielding Magic using smithing pretty much all over the place-ing build. Because Money is sweet. Breton Heavy Armor Alteration build centered around Fists of Steel. Because Punching Dragons is what it's all about. Also, Heavy armor and up to 55% magic...

    I suck at Minecraft

    I'm currently challenging myself everytime I start a new world now to build a base that won't go defunct when Notch makes torches expire and replaces them wil lanterns. The first design was a palace of lava that was built out of nothing but glass, lava, and some stone halfblocks for stairs...

    NASA Says Don't Worry About Falling Satellite

    Much like "Noise" isn't phonetically the same as "News" either. The pun is in the similarity of the naming, though not phonetically. :) Besides, "Fake Noise" doesn't have the same impact. One french word later, it looks similar and conveys the same meaning! :P

    NASA Says Don't Worry About Falling Satellite

    The reason this is perfectly safe can be seen in a past tragedy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Shuttle_Columbia_disaster The shuttle broke into a large number of pieces and no one died from any of them. And even then this isn't an example that matches the situation, as Columbia was...

    Blizzard Surprised by Reaction to Online-Only Diablo 3

    It HAS a cash shop! (sort of, in the form of the cash AH) :P Yeah D3 seems to be keen on giving itself bad press to spread the word.

    March Mayhem 2011 Is Over, Mojang Wins!

    My guess is that Mojang won out of nowhere and screwed many people's brackets and therefore they must prove their bracket was correct by questioning the results this much. Just a hunch though.

    Ubisoft Hunting for Assassin's Creed Expert

    I believe the reason for this job request has more to do with the fact the Creative Director for the Assassin's Creed games, Patrice Desilet, has left Ubisoft Montreal to go work at the new THQ Montreal studio. This means whatever he had in mind for upcoming Assassin's Creed games left with...
