    When Did Our Teachers Become Pansies?

    I know, right? This is why I carry around a stun baton. Not for the students, but for the teachers, of course. Just in case they aren't strict enough.

    Poll: Scare Me

    I'd have to go with Penumbra. Some of the levels in the Thief series have made me jump as well.

    Piracy Numbers

    I weep for the future of PC gaming.

    EA CEO Thinks Mirror's Edge "Deserves to Come Back"

    Because EA thought it would be a great idea if they made a level where it would be impossible to proceed until you defeated a team of SWAT agents. EA thought it would be even better if they made the other agents gang up on you if you tried to single one of them out, thus rendering melee attacks...

    EA CEO Thinks Mirror's Edge "Deserves to Come Back"

    I'm quite happy that they want to take the game in a different direction. The gunplay was annoying(to say the least). While I would like more running around on rooftops and less fighting, I found that the melee combat was fun- running and kicking police officers off buildings pleased my inner...

    Escape to the Movies: The Road

    Unlike other reviews, I find myself strongly disagreeing with Moviebob's review of 'The Road'. I read the book and saw the movie, and I liked them both. The movie is about as bleak and unforgiving as the book(Although the movie ends on a somewhat more hopeful note). First of all, the film, like...

    224: Behind the Counter at GameStop

    I would love Gamestop a whole lot more if they actually carried more games for other platforms(Such as the PC) besides the X-Box 360. When ever I see a Gamestop, it's nearly 3/4 X-Box games. I'd just like some more variety, you know?

    Escape to the Movies: Where the Wild Things Are

    I saw it Friday, and didn't know there was a review of it here until now. I think that this might just become my favorite movie. When I was a kid, I LOVED the book, and when I heard of a movie, I knew that I had to go see it. I was astonished by how deep, psychological and complex the story...

    -

    Damn, I haven't quite finished Thief: The Dark Project yet(I bought it recently). Right now I'm stuck in the haunted cathedral looking around for the armory. I can't wait to finish it, though. Half-Life 2 and HL2: Episode 2 were AMAZING, but I felt more satisfied at the end of Half-Life. When...

    nope

    For me, it was a tossup between TF2, Portal, HL, and HL2. TF2 is just plain amazing- I love the idea of separate classes. Portal was awesome, fun, and challenging- it was also just long enough to stay fun without dragging on or getting boring. Half-Life(1) was, simply put, nothing short of a...

    What was the last game you found yourself seriously addicted to? - CHAT WITH THE STAFF!

    Zombie Panic: Source. It's just so much FUN! I also remember being addicted to Uru and Riven (Both part of the Myst games) and Half-Life 2: Deathmatch. Tron 2.0 also had me for a while. EDIT: When I was about 7 or 8, Runescape was my life. I finally quit when I was about 10- I have never...
