    Poll: Is this racist advertising?

    Edit: Jesus, I just necroed a thread that I already posted in a year ago.

    Poll: Is this racist advertising?

    There are trends like this all the time on Twitter. Dave Chappelle has practically built his career off that stuff. Otherwise there's nothing to see here, it's obvious that the account is a bot that just tags its spam with whatever's trending.

    Rebel Alliance or Empire?

    The Empire has much better music. Dun dun dun dun dun-dun dun dun-dun!

    What is the oldest game in your collection?

    Books! Glorious Books!

    For me 'God Emperor of Dune' get regularly re-read. It's a very deep book full of musings on sexuality, power, religion and evolution - there's not many books can say that! There's also the Song of Ice and Fire series, but they've been recommended a bunch of times.

    Movies you were expecting to hate, but didn't...

    This might not be a popular one but I really enjoyed Hot Tub Time Machine. But then again, I'm a disillusioned 30-something...

    "I could write better characters than this!" You think so?

    Looks like 99.9% of the readers here didnt get that joke. I write for a living, although as a trade reporter most people would say Im not a real writer :) Our design guys are wizards with the software they use and create awesome work, but they cant write a coherent article. Likewise, I...

    Poll: Forced love interest

    I totally agree with hating Kate from GTA4. She was the ugliest love interest, never put out and just shouted abuse at Niko when she got drunk. It felt like she was never his girlfriend in the first place

    Inappropriate Oblivion Mods

    I actually have some of these mods, as you can't use some of the cooler armours without them. My only real issue with them is that they are mostly useless for anything other than cosmetic value. Quite often they are so ridiculously overpowered that it makes the game boring :(

    Games you thought you'd love but you turned out hating them.

    I have to agree with the Oblivion haters here. After loving the admittedly-quite-ugly Morrowind, Oblivion looked like it could be so great but with the exception of the Dark Brotherhood and a few others, the missions were just uninspired, and once you've completed the main quest, there's...

    Poll: Which Mass Effect 2 character is a "must" have in ME3

    For me, it's got to be Mordin. He is the very model of a scientist salarian!

    Good pc games?

    Mount and Blade! Sure, the graphics arent as polished as other games out there, but once you get the hang of it, it's a sweet game. Plus the sheer number of mods available is great - I'd recommend Europe 1200 and Lords and Realms.

    Sassafrass Hurts His Wallet so you don't Have to: Twilight: Eclipse

    I went to see this film with my girlfriend, with no knowledge of what Twilight is all about. It seemed to me to be two hours of talking, followed by five minutes of frenetic action. Personally I didnt like it, but my girlfriend was happy that I made the effort. Plus I get to take her to...

    If you could ban one human from reality, which one whould it be?

    I wonder who you voted for... OT: Henry Kissinger - what a horrible manipulative old man.
