    Question for people Pro-guns....

    Personally, I'm fine with gun ownership. For sport, or for protection. But I think that there are certain weapons that are unreasonable for civilians to own. I think that there should be strict qualifications for purchasing and owning a gun. Criminals are going to get their hands on weapons...

    Dark Knight Rises Shooting Leaves 12 Dead

    Tear gas, a bulletproof vest, a rifle, a shotgun, and a few handguns says otherwise. This guy was armed to the teeth, prepared, and had the element of surprise. Some average Joe with a side holster wouldn't have made a lick of difference.

    Mass Effect 3 Outrage Causes Unrelated Game to Change its Ending

    Seems a bit like cutting off your nose to spite your face, to be honest. "I'd rather kill you and nuke the world than see you nuke the world." It's like if Luke killed the Emperor, but then the Death Star destroyed the Rebel Base anyways, BECAUSE the Emperor was that only one who could stop...

    BioShock Infinite's Heavy-Hitting Handyman Steps Into the Light

    All ^^^THIS I'd love to see their other designs incorporated, even as random reskins. That way it doesn't feel like we're fighting THE SAME GUY over and over. Give each just a touch of individuality, and we'll be able to sympathize with them more because we can recognize them as beings that...

    Poll: Where are you from?

    Wow! I'm actually shocked at how many of the users being polled are from across the pond! I thought we'd get a hefty majority from the states, but glad to see we're a more diverse community than I'd thought.

    The Big Picture: Not Okay

    Really great read, thanks for the link. I recommend it to anyone with free time and an interest in differing videogame demographics to give it a look.

    The Big Picture: Not Okay

    I was just thinking on this point. At first I was obviously on Bob's side, because rape is bad and we shouldn't be using it as trash-talk or to "proclaim victory". But then I had to think about the meaning of rape. In our culture it is predominantly women who are raped, likely due to the...

    "Wait, I can do that?"

    I had a similar experience with SimAnt. Something to do with flying and propagating in other yard-squares. Also, watching Jimquisition on "Angry Birds" I was shocked to see the various abilities displayed by the different birds. I had always bashed AB for having no basic gameplay innovations...

    We're One Step Closer to a True Invisibility Cloak

    Y'know, I never noticed the eyeball stalks are actually connect to the bits of brain that go flying. It always happened too fast in the video for me to catch. Nice attention to detail by Valve. OT: ....Dr. Rainwater? Seriously?

    What? First SOPA, now ACTA?

    Okay, so what the heck do we do about THIS? http://www.i-programmer.info/news/81-web-general/3649-sopa-and-pipa-shelved-but-is-acta-unstoppable.html

    Is Steam okay for you?

    Can't tell if it was on purpose, but this line combined with your avatar made me laugh for awhile.

    Hollywood backlash against Obama over anti-piracy bill

    I love this quote: ["I would caution people don't make the assumption that because the quote 'Hollywood community' has been historically supportive of Democrats, which they have, don't make the false assumptions this year that because we did it in years past, we will do it this year," said...

    Poll: How many of you have actually read the SOPA bill?

    I'll admit I haven't actually read the whole bill through, but I trust that Google, Facebook, Twitter, and the litany of other tech experts (and their lawyers) who are objecting to the bill have read it. Even if OP is right, and there isn't any honest-to-God apocalypse clause in the bill...

    What's the most broken game you have had the misfortune of buying?

    I guess the newest AVP. I usually don't get stuck with broken games, but that one gave me some fits.
