    Sony Claims Pricey SD Cards Produce "Less Electrical Noise"

    Having looked around a little, this sorta seems legit. Copying from reddit here So yeah, this seems to be a thing?

    Is Silent Hill 2 the best game ever made?

    TL;DR: No Actual answer: No, because there cannot be any such thing as THE best game ever. There can be "one of the greatest games", there can be "a personal favorite", but in something as taste-based as video games there cannot be "THE best". It did what it did damn well and used the...

    Zero Punctuation: Talos Principle

    Nice to see that despite comparing unfavorably to portal it still earned his approval. Smart design from a company that made Serious Sam, would you believe it? Also that ending song is the best thing since sliced bread.

    [Legend of Korra Finale Spoilers] Implied with a sledgehammer!

    Everyone's allowed to have an opinion, but I'm going to tell you straight out that your opinion is wrong(joking please don't murder me). As someone above showed, there's been hints that Asami and Korra share a special bond, there WERE buildup to this and when thinking about it it DID resolve...

    [Legend of Korra Finale Spoilers] Implied with a sledgehammer!

    Bah, when all is said and done I liked that they did this. Sure, it was subtly hinted, but only subtly because we didn't expect it. If she'd been ONLY writing letters to Bolin etc we'd have started saying "hmm wonder if..." etc etc. But since we expected Korra to be into guys only, we didn't do...

    DA: Inquisition: Are archers good?

    Oh yes, certainly. Archers have plenty of abilities that are really fun, like Full Draw. It lets you play a more "sniper"-ish kind of game. I've taken out the enemy one by one from such distances they don't even know where I am. In the thick of it they work too, especially with leaping shot...

    9gag

    I am a regular there but I don't know why I stay. I mean, I like MOST of the content and sometimes it can positively surprise me. All the same, all too often there's just rampant misogyny, racism etc. It sometimes feels like a festering hive of spiteful white teens/twentysomethings moaning about...

    PETITION: Continue to sell Grand Theft Auto 5 in Australia

    Yeah, I ain't supporting any of this. As many have pointed out before, you can still buy the game elsewhere so if two companies out of many decide to not sell something... well "meh" is my answer there.

    "Intentional" Gas Leak Injures Furry Convention Attendees

    Jesus fucking christ. This is terrifying. And the thing is that recently during a feminist meetup in sweden they had hired a movie parlor to show this movie which had abortion as a central theme. In the middle of it someone kicks up the door, tosses in a smoke grenade screaming "this is a...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition Patch Aims to Fix Shoddy PC Controls

    I wish more people would show some understanding for just how tricky it is to hunt down every last bug in games. I mean this game is played on millions of computers which in turn have tens of millions of different combinations of RAM, CPU, hard drive etc. From the character creator to the...

    Poll: Privilege

    Hmmm... I think this is a matter of "six of one, half a dozen of another". The exact semantics are irrelevant, what matters is the fact that some groups lack the advantages other groups have. Rights are only rights if they're applied to everyone, otherwise they're privileges so I, when it comes...

    How do you feel about "inconvenient" protesting

    Wow, the sheer selfishness evident here is really freaking depressing. So I take it strikes are morally deplorable as well? They inconvenience you as hell. Large-scale protests are SUPPOSED to inconvenience people, force the ones in power to change their minds, decide that the cost of changing...

    Teeny Tiny Gaming Gripes [DAI Spoilers]

    I love Dragon Age Inquisition, let's start there. I feel like any of the sins of DA2 is forgiven utterly and Bioware is back on the right track(Note: DO NOT DISCUSS THIS, THIS IS NOT THE ISSUE AT HAND). There were, however, a few things I had issues with and the most silly one by far is the...

    Dragon Age - Unpopular oppinons

    I'm all aboard with that. DA:O was clunky and had dozens of really archaic mechanics. At times it felt like I was playing Baldurs Gate 2 which is a fun game but came out in the nineties, some evolution is nice. Even disregarding the feeling of Kirkwall, the characters and the sheer...

    Bioware needs to revert years of work

    Well not even then I would personally say. How do we know that none of the stories of "women dressing as men" were firstly actually real life events and secondly due to the woman in question actually feeling more comfortable as a man? Either way my point remains that the monolitic...
