    You are killed by the last weapon you used in the last game you played.

    Flamethrower from World of War. That's gonna be painful...

    Homeless man gets 15 years in jail for 100$, CEO gets 40 months for 3 Billion.

    The '3 strikes' law applies to any felony. If a crime (ANY crime) is a felony, then it is counted as a strike. I don't think this is an example of the Three Strikes law though for two reasons: One, I know the 3 strikes law was passed in California, but I don't know if it was passed in...

    Duke Nukem Train Wreck Trashes Take-Two

    Sad about L.A. Noire; definitely a game I would have gotten if it was on the PC. Duke, well, frankly I think it was a mistake for them to try to finish it. Just let the poor man rest in peace already!

    Tennessee Outlaws Transmission Of Emotionally Distressing Images

    "Frighten, intimidate, or cause emotional distress" Doesn't this pretty much sum up the entire internet?

    Modern Warfare 3 Trailer Kicks Off World War III

    The ISS got destroyed in MW2, alas. Meh I wish I could stay excited about this game. MW1 was my personal introduction to the COD series and is still one of my favorite games of all time, and World at War wasn't too shabby either. If only MW2 wasn't such a train wreck, and the only fun levels...

    Let's revive the WWII genre

    YES. I'd love a World War One shooter. Or perhaps a Korean War shooter. Personally World at War made me care a lot more about the characters that any previous WW2 CoD, but I wish the Marine campaign had been better done or had covered some other battles like tarawa as well. And that the...

    inception, it just blew my mind. did it blow yours?

    I hated that movie. I was lost at scene one and it only went downhill from there.

    Alternate histories.

    Best series I've read yet IMO. At least half of Britain's war budget was spent buying American armaments to shoot at the Germans and even then Britain and France were exhausted by 1917, and Russia quit half way through the war (I'm talking about World War I). In the end though I'm just...

    Alternate histories.

    Mine would be if the Confederacy won the American Civil War and see what would later world events would look like with a dis-united United States. That actually sounds like it would be pretty interesting too. Maybe also what would have happened if the U.S. joined allied with Germany during...

    Games you somehow like

    Darkest of Days. Everyone I know points out its flaws to me, and I know the flaws are there and see them too, but for some reason I can't stop loving it.

    Poll: Poll: Have you ever shot a gun? (Also note which country you live in)

    As a World War II reenactor, yes, I have shot my M-1 Carbine and have done rifle qualification with an M-1 Garand. I shoot blank cartridges far more often then live rounds though. Oh, I live in the U.S. in California (which probably has some of the strictest gun laws of the 50 states)

    What video game music do you have on YOUR IPod?

    A few songs from COD4, the MW2 music from the credits, and the entire Killzone 2 soundtrack.

    Calvin and Hobbes: The best comic strip ever created?

    Loved Calvin and Hobbes, but always liked Foxtrot better IMO.

    What games that were bad that you saw potential in?

    Darkest of Days, for many of the reasons mentioned by Yahtzee.
