    Where have you been all my life?!?!

    It's been a couple years now, but definitely Doctor Who. Since I'm not British, I hadn't even really heard of it until I was 21 or so. But once I started watching...<3 I bring it up because I'm slightly jealous of the people who grew up with the show.

    You, other people and your room

    Usually cool, so long as it's not my Dad (waaaaay too nosy) or a bunch of people just randomly hanging out in there out of the blue. Like...say one person comes in, you hang out for a bit, then another person comes in looking for the other person, and then ANOTHER person shows up, and next thing...

    The Most Overrated Games that Aren't

    Not in my experience. I can't even mention Skyrim anywhere anymore without tons of "Blech that game sucks" or "Morrowind was SOOOO much better" comments. Heck, just go read the comments on that Top RPG list that was posted on this very site recently. On one forum it's gotten so bad that I've...

    The Most Overrated Games that Aren't

    /Definitely/ agree on Skyrim, as it's one of my absolute favorite games ever (possibly my absolute one, even). I get that the detractors are still a minority, but still, as far as the internet goes it seems to have been getting tons of flak lately (90% of the time it seems to be from long-time...

    Reclining Seats, Other Extras Try to Lure People to Movie Theaters

    The AMC in my area recently did this, actually. They're definitely comfy, but it's also really easy to accidentally push the "recline button". And I warn you now, it's not quiet. And it's not used responsibly by little kids. :/

    Red Dead Redemption For PC Appears on Windows Website

    Guys, I don't care if it's been four years. The game is still fantastic and, most importantly, this may finally mean we'll see mods for the game. Even if I didn't still love the game, that would sure as shit renew my interest.

    Escape to the Movies: You Are Wrong About Spider-Man 3

    I agree with some of this. I've never thought Spider-Man 3 was terrible and I could never understand comparisons to the likes of, say, Batman and Robin or the Fantastic Four movies. But ultimately I still consider it a disappointment because, like he said, there were too many cooks in the...

    Jimquisition: Why So Serious?

    Uh...what's going on? I pressed play and I got an 8 minute clip-show of various Escapist shows. At first I thought these were gonna be examples used for Jim's argument but nope. At the end (yes I watched the whole thing) it just said "Find these shows on the Escapist". And absolutely nobody...

    EXP: ScrewAttack's Top 5 Best (and Worst) Nintendo E3 Moments

    Oh god, the 2008 conference. THAT was the first time I decided to watch an E3 conference live. The only thing-and I mean the ONLY thing-that I cared about was when they said "Grand Theft Auto for DS", and that was literally all they had to say or show about the game. Ughhhhhhhhhh. 2010's...

    Fanfiction - Your thoughts

    I used to be in the "all fanfiction is complete shit" group, and while I can still safely say most of it is pure garbage...when it's good, it's GOOD. Well worth drudging through the mire to find some of the gems, if you ask me.

    A few Skyrim mods to fix your immersion

    You don't have to go through this kind of trouble, I was just curious if anyone knew, lol. I'll try it for myself the next time I start a playthrough. ...Which admittedly may be a while since I just bought Morrowind for the first time.

    A few Skyrim mods to fix your immersion

    ...Seriously? 1. You're pre-emptively assuming the player is automatically going to PASS the speech check by default, as if that's a skill everybody just naturally builds up. 2. I have never been in the crowd that complained about Skyrim's hand-holding, so, again, thanks for pre-emptively...

    A few Skyrim mods to fix your immersion

    With this one, will Brynjolf still tell you how to find Esbern if you don't do his dirty work? THAT'S what's always particularly annoyed me about this. Delphine tells you to specifically talk to Brynjolf, yet he refuses to tell you unless you do a thief-related quest. If I'm playing a warrior or...

    Tennant Returns in 50th Anniversary Doctor Who Special

    I really doubt this is going to be the 10th Doctor's clone, for two reasons: 1. The writers are sure to realize that will piss people off. It doesn't matter if it's David Tennant, if it's not the *actual* 10th Doctor-as a character-returning for the 50th it WILL piss a lot of people off...

    No Right Answer: Worst Videogame Sidekick Ever

    This this this this this this this. I don't even understand why Tails would even be considered for this category, but Fi? Never has anyone annoyed me so much throughout the course of a game, ever.
