    Unskippable: Dead Rising

    Did they not notice that his hat has some strange clipping issues with his headsets? They couldn't erm, fix that?

    The Alton Brown thread.

    Yes, his 'feating on' series are very interesting. I like that sort of show, going around finding different foods. Sort of like the strange food shows with Bourdain and zimmern. Brown is very genuine, and a lot like Andrew Zimmern in how he approaches people and their culture. I find...

    The Alton Brown thread.

    Alton Brown can be enjoyable. Though I'm less of a fan of his hosting Iron Chef. I suppose if you take his show at face-value, that it's more about the 'sceience' than it is about cooking flair, then I suppose it's decent. Some episodes are interesting, and I do find some of his suggestions...

    Need help with gaming rig

    What's the current motherboard in your PC? And what type of power supply? You could easily do all this yourself if you have the motherboard that supports it. Everything from changing out the power supply to upgrading the memory and graphics card is really easy. The only sticking point is the...

    Unforgotten Realms: Episode 10: FYI I'm a Spy

    Woohoo! Great episode. I thought the jokes were a lot better, and focusing a little more on the RPG elements was a step up from some of the other episodes. Overall, this is definitely a series that makes every other Thursday worth not sleeping through.

    Zero Punctuation: Spore

    The point was that Will Wright is some sort of genius, and that we should accept his games as such. Same with Sid Meier. Same with Peter Molyneux. It's like Spore is supposed to be awesome because 'they' said so. And while it's an inventive game, it's nothing special. It sort of is like the...

    will fallout 3 be too much like oblivion

    Unfortunately, I think it's going to play quite similarly to Oblivion. Bethesda never had any intention of going isometric, and with the success Oblivion had, and continues to have, why not? They have the engine, a few tweaks, some updates, and viola! TES V: Fallout. I don't necessarily blame...

    What Defines a Fanboy?

    A fanboy/girl, with respect to consoles, is someone that believes exclusivity is good, unless it's exclusive to another system. They believe that any time a media outlet/anyone says something negative about their console they are biased. And when they say something negative about the other...

    Opinions on Alienware?

    As everyone has said, nice but overly expensive. Build your own. It's quite simple. And fun!

    Where does the gaming future lie: Online mutliplayer or AI?

    The less I have to play with 10 year old brats, the better. I have a two year old, and that's all two year old behavior I have time to deal with these days. Give me single player any day of the week. IMO, a person is smart, people are idiots. And there are way too many peoples on the...

    Why can't fantasy RPGs be more original?

    Hm... Thinking about it, I sort of agree. Why can't someone come up with something different from dwarves, elves and humes? It seems like those are the only viable races these days. I have to sya, I've never put any thought into this, but now I'm completely outraged...

    Zero Punctuation: The E3 Trailer Park

    I think there are a lot of people disappointed that they took the FPS/OTS (over the shoulder) style approach, and implemented a VATs system that really isn't like a turn based combat mechanic. It's all very different, and IMO, shouldn't be called Fallout 3. It should really either be a remake...
