    Asking a girl's dad for permission to go out with his daughter

    Meh... guys, its just a cool old-school thing to do. Like shaking the hand of a guy that just worked his ass off for you, its respectful and speaks to your class and character. It ALSO speaks to your class and character if you don't because you "think its stupid".

    Impossible to cancel Xbox Live Online?

    Captchas suck... bad. I almost didn't want to post this... "It seems to be impossible to make Xbox Live do anything but SIGN UP for service... do I really have to call the phone number to cancel my account? I swear I used to be able to do it in-browser..."

    Is Killzone 3 less polished than KZ2?

    All Playstation 3 games are disappointing to me. Its the N64 of this generation... better hardware, graphics, but I hope you love muddy visuals at choppy framerates and paper-thin catalog of must-have console exclusives. Don't whine, I used to own an N64 for three years before I caved and...

    Does anyone miss Unlockables in games?

    How old are you now? I'm pretty sure I've played tons of games that came out this year (less than two months in) that have unlockables... what would make more sense to say would be "I remember when the most popular games were split-screen"

    Games for Suicidals?

    Without getting into the "Why are you suicidal" thing, "If someone you knew was unhappy and has spent way too much time dwelling on negative thoughts and just doesn't see how they can go on, what videogames would you recommend to them to pull them out of it?" I used to love Animal Crossing...

    Confirmed Game Developers on Facebook?

    Not company pages or game and promotional pages: Like, does "David Crane, creator of A Boy and His Blob and Pitfall have a Facebook page"? I think it'd be cool to add those guys and chit-chat, plus eh, I have some future game-to-film ideas... just saying.

    Will console graphics ever beat PC graphics?

    There's no need for this much debate... "Nope."

    'Obsolete' technology that you remember using.

    Pay Phones. Dial-Up Modems for America Online... or better, for local BBSes. Door Games. Analog Video. Stand-Up Arcade Cabinets. Drive In Theaters. Plastic and Cardboard Milk Containers (Search: Tetra Pak)

    Polyphony Explains Gran Turismo 5 Delay, Sony Unhappy

    I always explain to people "there needs to be 10 console-exclusive must haves... not 10 console-exclusive high profile titles". Gran Turismo 5, Metal Gear Solid 4, God of War III... am I to understand PS3's been out for five years and they only have THREE games to tempt me? And ONE has...

    Grab the thing to the LEFT of you and defend yourself!

    Princess Leia Was High During Star Wars

    Welcome to 1985, bub... TV ran this story in response to fans concerns after The Empire Strikes Back.

    "Next-Gen" version of Freespace?

    I was looking around for a game that takes place in space... simulation elements would be good, though what I really want is large detailed graphics and a large mix of almost unrealistic weaponry. Civilization V has me in this mood, as well as a convo I just had with a friend about Interplay...

    Poll: Are you a better person online?

    I am... eh, "More exaggerated" when I play online. For example, I call everyone "Sweet Baby"... I'll make random Unreal Tournament Announcer-style declarations like "TWELVE MINUTES, FOURTY ONE SECONDS REMAIN" or "PLAYER 3 IS IN THE LEAD" (When there's no Player 3). People do like it and I get...

    All of us who have actually fired a gun IN REAL LIFE.. ..And you other guys can come too.

    Fired several guns in my life, in-game and in person: I vastly prefer shooting in games... way cheaper, less dangerous, more freedom. This is why games are typically superior for escapism...

    I need a good non realistic FPS.

    I've learned after reading many of the replies here that there's a shocking amount of people who don't understand what the hell an FPS is... but what wasn't shocking was the fact that most of the games mentioned were made in the last 10 years.
