    Spending $300 on an Internet Spaceship

    I'm an original backer and I personally believe you should just buy one of the lower tier packages. Every ship people are buying with real money can be purchased in game through playing. Plus you won't be able to fly that ship for at least a few months in a limited capacity (dog fighting...

    PC or PS4?

    It depends on what you want. PC has the largest library, backwards compatibility, and plenty of alternate uses besides gaming. However, if those things aren't a priority than go with a PS4. It's up to you but I'd go with PC personally.

    Why do PC Gamers Oppose Using a Controller?

    I have more experience gaming on PC and I prefer a mouse and keyboard. However, if the game clearly controls better with a controller (like platformers and fighting games) I will user a controller. This is the same reason I use a joystick for flight games and space combat titles. I'm not...

    Let?s Get Off the Xbone Hate-Train Already

    On the subject of DRM I'd like to share a bit of my experience. My roommate's rabbit chewed through the power cord going to my router and we had to wait a little over a week for a replacement power adapter. During that time we didn't have internet. I was able to play every game installed...

    UK's block on internet pron: what do you think?

    I'm against it. The end user should be responsible for what content they see on the internet. There are many client side and LAN parental control systems on the market (most modern consumer grade routers have parental controls built in). Once the goverment is allowed to block adult content...

    Star Citizen Gets Luxurious with the 300i

    I'm pleased with the ad and I'm so glad I upgraded from an Aurora to a 300i. I can't wait for the new site to go live!

    Star Citizen Breaks $10 Million in Crowdfunding

    He just needs two million more and he'll have the same budget as Wing Commander IV (inflation not calculated). I don't think I've ever been this excited about a game. I believe in CR.

    cars: manual (stick) or auto

    The majority of cars in the US are automatic. In fact most people don't know how to drive a manual (I'm speaking of the younger generation, most older people do). It's really sad for me be very few new cars offer manual transmission. My first car was a stick and so is my current one. Out...

    Poll: Mass Effect Series: Adept or Vanguard

    While I don't recommend playing a Adept on Insane (I have, not fun) it's a fun class on anything lower. Just make sure you pick squad mates that compliment your class. I played ME1 with a Vanguard on my first play. Never played it on any of the later games.

    How many people were outraged when Ned Stark...(spoilers)

    My wife read all the books and spoiled that plot point for me early on. She told me I couldn't be mad because that was a 16 year old spoiler.

    Your Commander Shepard

    I've got two and I used the least played classes. ================================================ Kyah Shepard, female, Engineer (all three games) Backstory: Spacer, War Hero, faithful to Kaiden Paragon/Renegade: Full Paragon. There where a few dialog options but for the most part...

    Escapists! Post your rides!

    I drive a 2002 Honda Accord. Decent gas mileage (around 30 MPG), 5 speed manual transmission, and it's pretty easy to work on (for a Honda).

    EU release of SimCity officially bombs (who would have thunk it!)

    I actually called EA's customer service line last night (I'm east coast US) while I was in queue to play SimCity. After ten minutes of being on hold the machine told me it would be 368 minutes (6 hours) before I could talk to anyone. I waited another ten minutes and that number jumped up to...

    Geeky names for pets.

    Me and my wife are thinking about getting a German Shepard and naming it Commander.... It would be interesting to see who would get the reference.

    Poll: Men! How do you shave your face?

    I use a safety razor. I haven't "graduated" to a straight razor yet.
