    Please help an old and starving gamer

    Not sure if it's up to your taste, but the "Sword of the Stars: the Pit" was an incredible timesink for me. It is a turn-based rouge-lite (meaning the progression is saved and shared between different characters/runs) in sci-fi setting that I've beat like maybe twice through the 446h of...

    Movies all males must watch before they die.

    I would add "Falling Down" (1993), if I had not learned in all those years, just how many girls/women like that movie. So... let's go with "Dollars Trilogy" (kudos Terrorade) by Sergio Leone and then make it even better with "A Fistful of Dynamite" AKA "Duck, You Sucker!"

    One Platform to Rule Them All

    No, it's my fault - I admit I got little "sour" while typing that "universe" thing. I could have said it in less accusatory way. Sorry about that and glad we're cool. Ha, that controller of theirs was probably the only thing that got me interested. That is, until they ditched the touchpad, which...

    One Platform to Rule Them All

    Typing some random bs (I'm talking about myself, don't get angry) on a forum or clicking "next" while installing random software is nothing (and is irrelevant) to understanding compatibility issues, choosing suitable power supply unit, seeing and understanding differences between different...

    One Platform to Rule Them All

    Consider sometimes, that you're not the center of the universe, and your set of skills is not universal. I'm a PC player since 1998 when I started high-school; computer class. Year later I dropped that, as the only real thing I learned there was "neither software or hardware is for me, I just...

    Games with great banter between characters.

    Lots of praise to BW banter writing and I can't say I'm surprised. I'd even go as far as to say those are the best parts of BW games. Forget about all those pointless internet wars around BW romances - THIS is where they shine. And to address the topic - Jan Jansen from BG2 interacting with...

    In the event of nuclear war, what would you do?

    Don't power stations and transformers tend to malfunction under stress coming from catastrophical power fluctuation in the energy grid? In case of nuclear war Germany is going to be hit much harder than Poland, so I wouldn't expect any help from them. Quite the opposite if anything. East we have...

    In the event of nuclear war, what would you do?

    Living in fourth of fifth biggest Polish city, I would die in a blast hopefully (if Russia would be so kind to remember how disobedient we always were). Which is good, as in no way I'm in any shape both physically and mentally, to endure the aftermath. To make it worse I can only dream about...
