    Zero Punctuation: Dragon's Dogma

    For a while I was convinced the Escapist is making all of Yahtzee's choices for games these days. Then a he blew out of that streak and now it feels like it's happening again. Why doesn't he get games the rest of us are actually playing? Ghost Recon, Rayman Origins, Gravity Rush, Day Z even...

    This guy gets it.

    I just watched suckerpunch...

    For me, Snyder is merely a Music video director who got a bigger budget. The story was hopelessly and practically non-existant for the middle section of the film, and the film consisted 80% on extended-music videos, the Samurai-statues vs schoolgirl bullcrap being the most obvious. I hated...

    Steve Jobs Resigns As Apple's CEO

    Totally agree with Sim ^^^ Love 'em or Hate 'em, Apple have been more influential than any company out there in the past decade, and Steve was the leading force behind it. I'm very sad to see him go.

    Would anyone jump ship (leave their country) if they could?

    I probably will probably have to move in the scheme of things. Ireland just doesn't have any "bleeding edge" capital like London or LA. We can be very slow to react. I have loads of time to think though. London or Canada maybe. Again, lots of time to think.

    Stand-up Comedians

    Don't know too many American stand-ups so this is for the BBC watching crowd mainly: Dara O' Briain for me is still miles ahead of other comics these days. It's because he interacts with the audience, building up jokes on the spot that I love about him. Many other comics feel tired and not as...

    Your favourite trolling lines (don't be offended people)

    I just love those loveable trolls who prod fun at the touchy fps gamers, like saying "I win!" after the round ends and he's at the bottom rank. Smarter people laugh, others get hilariously pissy for absolutely no reason. Glorious.

    i'm PISSED.

    At the end of the day, OP, it's their decision. You needn't dismiss your friends for doing so, but tell them if you think they're getting too out of hand. It's something everyone should experience in my opinion, when you want to do so however is ultimately your choice.

    Bethesda: People Who Say Graphics "Don't Matter" Are Usually Lying

    Rubbish I say. Crysis felt like a hollywood action movie to me, whereas the Stalker series has always felt incredibly immersive and deals with far worse, much less effective textures and detail. The first hour or so of Crysis for me was a whole lot of "oh my god, it's incredible!", quickly...

    Poll: Morality of To Catch a Predator.

    If you're just randomly joining chatrooms and throwing a line out in an attempt to catch a big one, then I don't agree with that. If there is evidence to suggest the person may already be violating the law, then wail all you want to coax him out, should it be true. It's a funny sort of...

    Poll: Will you buy Duke Nukem Forever?

    I'll see when it comes out. I'd consider it if the game was old style, no remorse, just badass fun, making me feel like a kid playing a game I shouldn't be again. Otherwise, it looks 50-50 so far from the videos and screens I've seen. Could just be another Serious Sam HD with more HD and more...

    Can we STOP spelling Microsoft with a "$" PLEASE!!!

    Hope this clears up some misconceptions people are having. The old reason at least for the M$ thing was because the company was built moreso around businessmen than engineers and developers. This is still true to some point, Ballmer himself has a Harvard business degree rather than computer...

    Poll: Is this joke funny?

    Puns are the absolute highest level of all forms of comedy. No argument.
