    New SimCity Will Require Always-On Internet - UPDATED

    They should have made multiplayer an option, not a requirement. I find it disturbing the trend from "We have this new feature" to "You NEED this new feature" popping up in many games from EA.

    Mass Effect 3 - WHAT Was Your Favourite Weapon?

    The M-37 Falcon for me. Always liked traditional assault rifles in ME but the falcon is just so effective even when enemies are using cover as they detonate near enemies and you can fire it beside or above them and hurt them with the shrapnel. Works at close or medium range, even long range if...

    Mass Effect 3: The Process

    Haven't laughed at my screen like that for some time. At least now I am on the acceptance stage but this pretty much sums up my reaction on what happened after ending my 1st game. Captcha: lager frenzy - ok, will do that!

    Escapist Podcast: Bonus: Mass Effect 3 With Spoilers Part 1

    Yeah, thought that the list would just be members of the alliance and did not notice that the wall updates until Thane's name appeared at the bottom of the list during my stroll around the Normandy. Didn't realize then that they put up names alphabetically.

    Escapist Podcast: Bonus: Mass Effect 3 With Spoilers Part 1

    The memorial wall infront of the elevator was also a nice touch. When Thane died in my game and his name was put up on that wall with all the others, that hit me hard.

    Take the "Which Mass Effect Species Are You? Part 2!" Quiz!

    This one has forgotten whether its heat sink is over capacity. It wonders whether the criminal scum considers itself fortunate. Take this quiz [/quizzes/view/196-Which-Mass-Effect-Species-Are-You-Part-2] This one is not Hanar! This one does not see similarities as one is more than a stupid...

    Mass Effect 3 Ending Conspiracy. If you love Mass Effect and hated the ending, READ THIS PLEASE

    Its good to hope but this is no longer the Bioware that we once knew that focused on good story telling. It is still there, its just that it is no longer their priority.

    Electronic Arts Announces New SimCity

    Multiplayer? So this is this going to require constant online connection and monthly fees like Cities XL? That ruined the game. I hope there would be at least a single player mode. Been waiting a loooong for another Sim City to be released.

    Peter Molyneux Leaves Lionhead

    Even though he was all hype and no bite during the later years, he was still the person who helped bring Populous and Black and White and there is still much potential to once again create a great game. Here's to hopeful optimism.

    Mass Effect 3 Cannot Import Cloud Saves on Xbox 360

    I'm a little confused here, who is supposed to take the blame for this? EA or Bioware? I expected this to be the publishers fault as the cloud service was theirs to maintain and EA servers are not exactly the most dependable. Or are they both to blame?

    Pokémon Championship Team Hurls Crap At Each Other

    Shit's getting real! OT: Wow, who we could still act like our distant cousins. Sad thing is they went there as a representative of both Pokemon and Spain and acting like monkeys is not the best way to promote yourself. This would forever be a stain on the Pokemon Championship for a loooong time.

    Poll: What do you ride into battle?

    Want to ride into battle with the Shai Hulud but they have a bit of a problem crossing oceans. So I go to SPACE! A Kol Battleship, of course with a Dunov behind me.

    Valve May Be Entering the Console Market with "Steam Box"

    I think that Valve may have the foundation for a good console and that's 3rd party support as they still have the trust of many developers. If they could make hardware that's easily accessible that developers would not choke on development cost but powerful enough to satisfy the graphic whores...

    Adidas Sues THQ

    I would like to side with THQ on this one as they publish many games that I love but from the source article it was technically a breach in contract and they refused to relinquish the IP to another developer. Adidas had every right to sue them. Cruel yes but in the business world this may just...

    Things That Are More Fun Than They Should Be

    Emptying the recycle bin in Windows. Especially when you could see it reach gigs in size and see it instantly convert back to free space. Ive never understood why I feel happy watching that icon turn from full to empty and hearing that confirmation tone.
