    Escapist Podcast: 091: Sega & Gearbox False Advertisement Suit

    Someone mentioned it already, but I'm surprised that the crew didn't think of the "helicopter parent" as a possibility for the parents inappropriately accompanying their kid to a job interview. I see the parent "being dragged along" as a great deal less likely than the parent insisting on...

    Don't you just hate people like this?

    Had the ending to Starcraft 2: WoL spoiled for me by some jackass on these very forums, interestingly enough. Was very annoyed by that. If I recall correctly it was in a thread where people were primarily discussing the Halo games or Bungie or something, so I really wasn't expecting it.

    Legendary Pictures Taps Source Code Director for Warcraft Movie

    It's a bit odd that you "remember" that, because Metzen joined the Blizzard team during production on Warcraft 2, not Warcraft 1. He wasn't around for the first one. You're probably thinking of Sam Dider's drawings in the Warcraft 1 manual; he was around for the first game. All the same, I...

    Majora's Mask: Inverted Song of Time...

    The only reason not to use it all the time is if you're in a hurry to get to a later day. So yeah, once I learned that song I basically just kept the time flow slowed down all the time.

    WH40K Tabletop Game

    I only really play the DoW games (plus read some of the novels) but if I were to play the tabletop game, the armies that intrigue me the most are the Sisters, the Grey Knights, and the Necrons.

    Don't read this!

    If you really wanted to drive the idea home, you'd have to embed some seriously offensive images, or find a way to infect everyone who viewed this thread with malware. Simply looking at a regular, innocuous thread bears effectively no risk.

    Yeah, I see that one a lot too.

    Metal Thread

    just to throw a random smattering of some that I like that aren't on the list: Sabaton, Turisas, Hammerfall, Xandria, Tyr, Alestorm, Armored Saint, Kamelot, Krypteria, Rhapsody of Fire, Testament, Dark Moor, White Skull, Edguy, Sonata Arctica, Sirenia, Gamma Ray, Battlelore, Therion, Running...

    Bands people don't seem to know about.

    Glad to see someone mentioned Sabaton. More people who like power metal (and/or who enjoy songs about war) need to know about that band.

    267: This Is the Way the World Ends

    Garrosh isn't being developed evilly enough, IMO. But then again I'm the kind of guy who'll be happy with nothing less than the Orcs banning shamanism and resuming the drinking of the demon blood. I dearly miss the Old Horde of the old Warcraft games. I really liked that Horde.

    Could Bungie's New IP Be an Action RPG?

    Unfortunately, I don't think Bungie has control over the Myth IP anymore. Very sad, as I loved that series as well (the first two games anyway, never played the third one). However, it would still be interesting to see them return to the real-time tactics genre again with a new IP.

    Poll: Which Zelda game should I play first?

    The Oracle games were WAY better than Minish Cap. Dunno what you're smoking.

    Which character do you relate to/look like?

    My sister was watching me play Eternal Darkness while I was playing Anthony's chapter, right in the middle of the process of him slowly decaying while alive, and she remarked that he kinda looked like me.
