    Lifting Weights, Running, and Motivation

    Was in a similar position a few months ago. 35lbs overweight, never liked my body, and it came to a point where I felt I needed to make some lifestyle changes. Having never dieted or exercised before, I didn't quite know where to start. In the first month, I lost twenty pounds, and today (about...

    Movies you love but everyone hates

    Eyes Wide Shut. I loved every single scene. It could quite possibly be my favorite Kubrick film behind A Clockwork Orange.

    Games you wish existed

    A new Jedi Knight/Dark Forces game. Those were actually really good. Like if The Force Unleashed achieved what it tried to, and turned out to be good.

    Hardest Game(s) You've Played?

    BIT.TRIP series and STALKER for me. Then again, I haven't played all that many "hard" games.

    Could you please recommend some long game?

    Silent Hill 2, not because it's all that long, but due to the fact that you have to take breaks every few minutes to recompose... Or is that just me?

    Steam Sale: Lesser Known Games

    BIT.TRIP.RUNNER - A successful fusion of 2D platforming and rhythm games. Absolutely brutal and completely unforgiving, so those who miss that kind of challenge from modern games will find a lot to love. Penumbra: Black Plague - Before there was Amnesia, there was Penumbra. You may want to...

    What do you think about Metacritic?

    Hate it. It's like democracy: everyone gets to be heard. And there are some opinions that I just really don't want to hear. Also it's plagued with 1 star protest votes, which I can't stand.

    So what are YOU getting from the Steam Summer Sale?

    Just got BIT.TRIP.RUNNER. And if they're on sale: Half Life + Expansions Assassin's Creed II Fallout 3/New Vegas Frozen Synapse Mass Effect 1+2 (maybe... I've heard great things, but I'm not sure if its worth the time. Maybe if it's reaaaaally cheap) And then I'll stop... Really. I...

    Does your PC Cry.........sis?

    Yeah, AA's a killer. Things get pretty choppy when I turn it on. I had it completely off. I always have it off sort of on principle: It's so demanding, yet visually changes so little...

    1 button nade tossing has to stop in online multiplayer

    To be perfectly honest... I just don't like grenades. Most multiplayer shooters would be improved simply by removing them. Except maybe flash grenades, because those do have tactical uses, but for the most part, grenades simply act to make a game messier. Ideally, they'd be used in special...

    Is Littering a Crime?

    Yes. I mean, how hard is it to keep your trash with you until you find a place to throw it out? It's an arrogant act of self-entitlement, and it drives me nuts.

    Does your PC Cry.........sis?

    My entry-level iMac's several years old now... I was pretty surprised to see that it ran Crysis at a very high framerate on "High" settings (most setting turned up, and resolution at max). The framerate slowed down a bit during explosions and firefights, but I only noticed it because I was...

    Help a couple of gamers out

    Portal 2 Co-op is genius. L4D2 is always a blast. MW2's Co-op was actually really fun. Seriously underrated.

    have you ever been "That Guy"

    About half the time when I used to play CoD4 and sometimes when I played MW2. I spent many hours on those two. Now, it's been happening a lot in TF2 lately. Probably because of the surge of new players. Before then, it would only happen every few days or so.

    Poll: So. Stones or Beatles?

    Stones had Exile on Main St., Let It Bleed, and Sticky Fingers, all legendary albums. Beggars Banquet too, arguably. The Beatles had The White Album, Sgt. Peppers, Abbey Road, Revolver, Rubber Soul, and arguably A Hard Day's Night. Both are great bands, but no other band has had as many...
