    Escape to the Movies: American Sniper - An Empty War Film

    I would like to thank you for your well worded and thought out post! It has been apparent to me for a long time that Bob is extremely anti-war. As someone who has served in the Marines, and lost friends in Iraq, I am proud to say that I am also anti-war. The difference is that not only did...

    People should stop protecting guns

    The Constitution aside, the only reason why this is in debate right now is because of the tragic shootings that have occurred. Someone that is sick enough to commit such an act will not be deterred by the small measures that the legislature will take. We need to take a look at why these...

    Critical Miss: Top Five Games of 2012 #5

    That may indeed be the greatest part of Sec Ops to you. I on the other hand would have preferred it if the game didn't force us down the path of madness, but instead nudged us and guided us down the path. To help us feel that we are doing the right thing. As it is, the game presents...

    Critical Miss: Top Five Games of 2012 #5

    During the whole game I kept thinking "this isn't what I would do" Forcing a player to do something isn't innovative or unique. If the game convinced me as the player to make the choices, that would have been something. As it is it was a OK game with an OK story line and OK game play.

    Theoretically Killing Off One Person In History.

    I like the idea of eliminating the first religion, with the hope of eliminating all religion...

    Let's Remake Star Wars

    This is one of the dumbest ideas that I have heard in a while. Why waste money and time on remaking a series that could never be done right. There are too many people that have emotional interests in different aspects of Star Wars. Whatever a remake would be, it could never satisfy people...

    Ouya Already Has a Limited Edition

    I am just a little leery of a console that only has 1 gb of ram, and 8 gb storage...

    Notch in No Hurry to Bring Minecraft to Steam

    To me it is not biased at all. EA pulled there games form a competing digital distribution service to create their own competing service to increase profits. The reason they were badmouthed was for how they went about creating there service, and how they forced users to use there service. If...

    German Consumer Group Threatens Legal Action Against Blizzard

    I don't understand why people think that everyone should be as knowledgeable as them. Or why someone who buys the third installment of a single-player game should expect to always be connected to be able to play it. Especially when the other games could all be played offline. Using the term...

    Update: PopCap Bails On Google+

    I actually like google+ better than facebook. The problem is I can't get any of my friends to switch. They all ***** about facebook, but they have the same issue. Unless you can get everyone to switch at the same time, the service will fail.

    "Hacker" Asked Microsoft to Help Him Access Infinity Ward's Emails

    You seem to have a lot more information on this than I do. I was on the understanding that West and Zampella where the only ones fired from Activision. I believe the rest of the employes left on there own accord, and the ones that decided to stay are still employed by Activision. I also...

    Activision's Evil Rep is Unfair Says Spider-Man Dev

    I can understand your position. I just loath the fact that companies just want to make money. To me money is just a tool. To them, it is a way of keeping score. I would rather they tried to further gaming, and make more interesting things for me to play than just try to reap as much cash...

    Activision's Evil Rep is Unfair Says Spider-Man Dev

    The only reason that Activision keeps making a "shitton of money" is because they keep releasing the same game every year, and people are stupid enough to buy it. Check out there current catalog. There isn't any other game/series even worth mentioning. The best part is they know that the...

    Blizzard Says Diablo 3 Hacking Isn't Unusual - UPDATED

    The higher the level, the higher the chance at having better loot for the real money auction house.

    EA: Retail is Great and Day-One DLC is Awesome

    I am sure that this has been mentioned already, but the reason EA likes retail is simple. They can charge more for digital copes of the games. A digital game costs less than a physical game. There is no media to print. No discs to burn. No store needed to add a markup. If EA reduced...
