    BioWare Considers Free-to-Play For The Old Republic

    Please let this happen. I'd love to try this game, but don't know anyone who plays (= no trial invite) and will not put down 60 bucks for a game I might not play for more than a few days. If not F2P, then I hope they *at least* introduce an open trial.

    Poll: Do you believe in "women and children first"?

    Children first by all means, then a parent with each one. Rather than "women and children first" I believe more in "weaker first": stronger women and men alike should in my mind give their place for weaker men and women, the elderly, the disabled, etc. There's no difference in right between...

    Not Wanting a Girlfriend is a "Serious Illness"

    Entire World of Warcraft Gets Recreated in Minecraft

    Not to pick a fight or anything, but the thing is, you could say this about almost anything. Person paints an awesome detailed piece of art? "Get outside once in a while!" Another writes a book? "Get some friends, dude!" Someone makes a cool little game by himself? "Have you thought of getting a...
