    There goes Sony's pro used games attitude...

    So apparently the support for used games demonstrated by Sony so far is gone down the drain. They recently sent a cease and desist order to the owner of Gametrade.pl, a Polish portal used for selling used games (sort of like E-Bay, but games focused). Here's a link to the news...

    Poll: Origin Survey - Would you recommend it to a friend?

    I currently cannot get into Origin (forgot password), no password reset e-mails arrive and this is not the first time it happened. I'm currently breathing hate and discontent at EA's useless customer support, but all emotions aside, I have never ever though that there is anything good, useful or...

    Witcher Writer Doesn't Feel Like a Co-Author of the Game

    Because in Poland he is a fantasy literature icon on par with Tolkien. The problem is, he's not that popular any more. Some fans actually hated him after the last part of the saga came out and he is known for acting like a buffoon with all this "I am a great writer" attitude. He also...

    Is Diablo 3 the worst game ever in terms of price vs. quality?

    Just my 2 cents. I was inclined to come to terms with the crap DRM, title screen boss number 37, single player lag and other things as I had a lot of fun with my friends in the game, but today I just snapped. I logged in to Battle.net only to find my character stripped clean of all the...

    Chernobyl Diaries Takes a Scary Trip to a Familiar Place

    To me this seems just... disappointing. Another horror film based on the same exact scheme - bunch of kids going some place scary for the thrill and it suddenly goes bad (duh?). No surprise here. The only twist in this is that it's Chernobyl. You know what is really scary? The amount of...

    That is just communism! Newell probably got that idea from reading Stalin!

    Spawn Camping Marathon Gets Black Ops Players Banned

    As much as spawn-camping, boosting, spawn-rapes, sniping and other tactics are highly irritating, a ban is something that should not happen - these guys did not cheat, they exploited the game mechanics and for high level competitive play this is a normal thing. Do you think bunny-hopping or...

    The Railgun, duh?

    Poll: Prostitution

    I think you are all missing one important point: prostitutes themselves do not want legalization of their trade - they do not want to pay taxes. Legalization would just make the state their second pimp.

    The weapon you couldn't do without

    Behold! The StakeGun from Painkiller! It's like the uberrailgun of all pr0-style weapons, and if your aim's bad, you can alway spam some grenades with it.

    Piracy in Poland

    I live in a country of absurd, right in the middle of Europe, in an old post-industrial city called Lodz (which happens to be right in the middle of Poland). I keep reading various comments and articles concerning piracy, how it is such a big problem and a plague of software industry, how game...

    Favorite RTS

    Myth: The Fallen Lords and Myth 2: Soulblighter - best story, best physics, best graphic (back in '97)and most of all best gameplay, focusing on formations and micromanagemtn instead of mass unit production. Go get it if you haven't had a chance back in the days, and if you do have it, be sure...
