    Drop The SOPA

    This could make an appearance in the news? I mean, violation of intellectual property rights BY the figurehead politician for "protecting" intellectual property is pretty funny.

    My top 10 gripes with Skyrim.

    It was published by them, and the writing is actually good. His point was that you can have good writing in an open-world do-what-you-want RPG.

    Poll: What's your favourite type of gun and why?

    Still a good idea to use some hearing protection. OSHA standards would have you wear plugs or muffs for transient sounds of 130 dB I think. Still your point remains that you're looking at range and a 120 dB pop at a couple hundred yards won't even be remarkable.

    Poll: What's your favourite type of gun and why?

    My favorite gun in existence is either the AA-12 or the AS-50. You have to love a fully-automatic shotgun that can fire grenades. And, likewise, you have to love a highly corrosion-resistance semi-automatic rifle that is very nearly as accurate as the best bolt-actions at over a mile away...

    Skyrim spawns a meme.

    Nice. I'd personally only seen the Fus Ro Dah meme before, and it hasn't been done to death (for me). Also, I just expected this to be a montage of sending bandits to their death by Shouting them off of towers -- this is much better.

    Games nobody wants to play, but everyone wants to say they did

    From what I hear, Nethack is actually pretty tame for a rogue-like. ADOM actively hates you. And I've played the piss out of it... I played throught PS:T twice, Deus Ex at least twice. I don't really get sucked into either of them any more though -- there's just way too much going on IRL and...

    And, on the 360, creates hideous z-fighting with water and terrain that wasn't there before.

    I just wish I could get a discount for being a vet and buying it on Veteran's day...

    So who else isn't buying BF3 or MW3

    He's not saying that the only reason people buy these games is peer pressure. He's saying that some people on the fence who would be perfectly happy to continue playing last year's iterations of the series will buy the new ones because all of their friends they play with move onto CoD2011 and...

    So we've had the BF3 Beta for a while now...

    My first match sucked. The second match sucked less. The third match, I slowed down and camped like a little ***** and had less bad of a time. The game's spotty. Most of the time you're dead before you realize someone even saw you. Occassionally, you'll get winged once and be able to shift...

    Nine out of 10 will not finish the game they are playing

    Since the current game I'm playing is Tom Biskup's ADOM rogue-like, the reason I don't finish is because I *CAN'T*. The game is brutal and without save-scumming I've never made it past level 20 and never gotten a single orb. Even save-scumming, I've never even come close to finishing it.

    Poll: More ads on The Excpaist - Problem solved?

    As long as the ads don't do any of the following, I'm okay: play audio that isn't muted by default rollover expansion Actually, that's it, I guess. There was some rollover ad for Whatever: Ascension of No-one-cares (supposedly "one of the most anticipated games of this year," which I find...

    How long do you sleep? (Average)

    About 7 hours per night. I need slightly more, but never seem to really get it. Keep going to bed at 9-ish, but then I read until about 11pm and invariably wake up around 6am.

    PS3 or 360?

    I have a PS3 and a 360. I got the 360 first and almost all of my games are for the 360. If you have big hands, the PS3 controller is too small. The thumbsticks also feel a little less accurate, but honestly I hardly play my PS3.

    What was the last thing you CTRL+C'd?

    Bill Phillips He's the author of the Body for Life books and I was looking them up in my local library's catalog online. I lost my copy.
