    Valve on Customer Service: "We Need to Do Better"

    +1. Im glad someone else here sees that. I have over 400 games on steam and most of them were purcahsed for a whole $1 or $2. Anything higher than that I would do ample amounts of research on to make sure it would work and be something I was looking for. I have never had an issue with any game I...

    Jobs you can't wait to quit.

    Also, while im giving advice. If he was hiring you as a 1099, which is used generally for self employeed and general contractors, that would be illegal as well. The reason he may have tried that is to dodge some taxes as employers have to match taxes from employees. So each employer is paying...

    Jobs you can't wait to quit.

    Its cleaning kitchen exhaust hoods for commercial restaurants with a pressure washer. Its 40 hours a week. There are only 3 part time positions of the 10 employees. Its not a glamorous job as i've said but its not hard. The biggest thing I can think of is the work being overnight since the...

    Jobs you can't wait to quit.

    Id like to offer some perspective from the other side. I own a business employing roughly 10 employees. Employees are my biggest headache. No matter what I do I can't seem to find a decent employee. Regardless of my efforts to include each one in the working process and the fact they are...

    Game of the year? You mean of 2014? Do they know its March now? Maybe they can use that Bungie money to buy a calendar?

    Poll: Strange Question About Bed Frames (Globally)

    This is my bed frame. Built in storage and built in lights with adjustable brightness levels for sexy times. :) Such a great frame. Its also the first time I have bought a frame and mattress on Amazon without trying them. (Im not sure why there is a white box on the bottom right of...

    Evolve Dev Responds to DLC Criticism

    umm... isnt the game coming with 3 monsters and 12 hunters then a 4th monster for free if you pre order it? According to steam anyway. I find it funny how mad you guys are getting over a game that isn't out yet. Why not wait and see how much content is there before grabbing your pitchforks? A...

    Who is going to replace Jim Fucking Sterling-san?

    Im not sure but im losing reason to come back here. With LRR taking content off and moving more torwards their website and twitch, jim leaving entirely, and Lisa earlier this year, the only reason I am here now is for Yahtzee. They need to pull in a heavy hitter or two. As it stands im not...

    A point I had never considered about sexism in gaming...is it really a valid point?

    I completely agree. People are to quick to jump to conclusions without thinking about it first. It ends up painting the industry in a far worse light than it should. I would say the there is a lack of well written female characters in the industry but I dont feel the gap is as large as people...

    A point I had never considered about sexism in gaming...is it really a valid point?

    My issue is not with disscussion of personality or any of the like. My issue stems from the use of "Objectification" to describe the interactions with a character within the video game to match a sensationalist movement happening in the industry now. A hero is Lol is an object. They are made...

    A point I had never considered about sexism in gaming...is it really a valid point?

    Notice how you use characters from movies and books? You understand video games arent those right? A video game character (as i said) is an object. It is a thing created for us to control. That is an object. I didnt waste the effort to point out how you used illusionism because I was under...

    Are the controls meant to be awful in The Last of Us?

    I hold the un popular opinion that The Last of Us is INCREDIBLY mediocre. The gunplay, crafting, stealth, story, and characters are all passable but none of them are done really well. The exception to that would be Ellie though. I feel that she is the best thing to come out of that game by...

    A point I had never considered about sexism in gaming...is it really a valid point?

    Ok then. Can you honestly say that Lol develops any characters? Are ANY of the characters three dimensional. I dont think they are. Then in that case as they ARE just "cardboard cutouts." So then can they be objectified? Thats not even counting you people dont know what the term means...
