    Coming Soon To WoW's World's End Tavern: Robin Williams - Update

    Well it wouldn't be the first time Blizzard paid in-game tribute to a fallen WoW comrade. People can cry about insensitivity, marketing the dead, and whatever else but in reality it's just like any other tribute to the dead. Blizzard doesn't profit from this whatsoever.

    Editorial: Nintendo's E3 Showing is Refreshingly Fun

    I was really hoping to hear about Majora's Mask for the 3DS. After playing the OOT remake I was very impressed. And seeing as how Nintendo has all but confirmed its eventual release, I guess I will just have to wait for now.

    Save me I am playing wow again.

    That's what they said/did with Cataclysm and the reception was pretty bad. I mean yea quite a few people liked it, but enough of the player base hated it to warrant massive nerfs before Tier 12. Unless they come up with a better system I highly doubt that will happen again. To the OP. If you...

    Lucasfilm Makes It Official: Star Wars: Expanded Universe Is Dead

    Ah I see. In that case I'm familiar with quite a lot of the EU and indeed enjoyed it and what it added to the Star Wars lore. I guess my disdain for the EU comes from the books that were written as sequels to Episode 6. That's what I thought was being called non-canon here. If everything else is...

    What game looks completely generic at first, but is actually well worth playing?

    Return to Castle Wolfenstein (version with the prequel missions of course). At first glace the game looks like just another WWII shooter but I'll be damned if that game isn't one of my all time favourites.

    Lucasfilm Makes It Official: Star Wars: Expanded Universe Is Dead

    I'm not sure what games count towards the EU material other than Jedi Academy so I'm going to say no in terms of games. Books, I have read quite a few of some years back. I remember really liking them at first but I started to dislike them the more I read. To me the books read like fanfiction...

    Lucasfilm Makes It Official: Star Wars: Expanded Universe Is Dead

    Honestly...good! The extended universe was really nothing more than glorified fan fiction and wasn't really all that great anyway. Ever since I heard that episode VII was going to happen I was hoping the EU would get re-written, even if that means another 3 movies on the same level as the prequels.

    George R.R. Martin Releases Chapter from New Game of Thrones Book

    I kind of hope she does bite it. That's partly a personal bias against her character and partly that it would change the entire game. Daenerys dies and now her dragons are the wild card...sounds awesome! Everyone and their mother expects her to take back the throne. Having that actually happen...

    World of Warcraft's Character Boosts Now On Sale for $60

    They haven't added any price tag to the game except the fact they keep adding expansions like mad. The $60 is 100% optional. The actual $60 boost seems to be a result of Blizz giving a boost to 90 free with the next expansion; which in itself seems to be a tactic to get old players to resub...

    World of Warcraft's Character Boosts Now On Sale for $60

    Have you even played WoW? Getting to max level is not an accomplishment whatsoever. It's a big deal the first time sure but you will never hear anyone say "Wow, that guy is level 90! SO COOL!" Hell, a decent 87-89 can kill a bad 90 (assuming he's still wearing leveling gear). All the...

    World of Warcraft Paid Level 90 Boost Will Cost $60

    In my opinion, seeing this service as cashgrab only is pure ignorance. This boost to 90 fills the demand of old players looking to resub but feel like they are too far behind and don't want to bother. Boom, Free 90 with WoD. The $60 pricetag of additional 90 boosts does 2 things: 1)Gives...

    Jimquisition: Steam Needs Quality Control

    That's not really the best example because a supermarket isn't analogous to a free market. What's happening on steam is more like having flea market or bazaar where a large amount of the goods sold are unfinished, rotten, or just generally bad quality. You can complain to the owner(s) of the...

    Are humans, animals?

    I think you believe the ability to think and act is more important than it actually is. Humans are not the only animals to display self-awareness. We are at the top of the food chain sure. However, we are still bound to it. I can literally choose to kill myself right now. How does that decision...

    Are humans, animals?

    Yes, I'm not sure how this is even a question. If you are asking if we are different from all the other animal, yes we are. No other animals has achieved what humans have (That we know of). Suggesting that we are not animals shows a lack of understanding of basic biology. Such a notion is...
