    Anita Sarkeesian states that sexism against men is impossible

    The fact that I nearly wound up homeless because the only shelters within ~20 miles were women-only shows that statement to be a massive load of bullshit.

    Most Bizarre Errors You Constantly See

    My mother absolutely refuses to pronounce the "r" in "frustrating." I wish I was kidding about this. She really is an intelligent woman otherwise.

    Historical periods that are barely ever explored in games

    I'd love to see some proper attention shown to the Islamic Golden Age, it was a great period of time for science.

    What's the most boring book you've ever read?

    I know I'll piss off a lot of people when I say this, but Michael Crichton's The Andromeda Strain. Absolutely sterile of personality, doesn't even bother trying to engage the reader. Wait, shit, I can think of one line that made me giggle a little bit, but only because it was so unexpected...

    Say One Thing About The Country You Live In

    'Murica, where the radical minorities have the loudest voice because they don't know what a fucking democracy is. Then again, we're actually a republic, not a democracy, so eh. Fact: A lot of stereotypes about Americans are depressingly true. If I had a dollar for every time I've seen an...

    Unpopular gaming opinions

    Deus Ex: Invisible War was a very good game. Contrariwise, the original Deus Ex is not nearly as good as everyone seems to think. There has not been a single good Red Faction game. Bethesda did not ruin Fallout. I'll think of more later.

    What's Your Kink?

    I'm a sucker for a girl with tan lines, I think they accent the body nicely. Beyond that, biting and scratching. I'm boring.

    The Five games that define you as a gamer

    The game that got me into games, and most likely created the tastes I have today, favoring an open, player-oriented experience. This is the one that taught me that games can be more than idle entertainment- they can contain worlds. Open to exploration, always something new to see. Although...

    Good stand-alone games

    Black and Jade Empire. The Spec Ops series has been around since '98.

    Where Have the Side-Scrolling-Brawlers Gone?

    NOBODY has mentioned God Hand yet. For shame. Play God Hand!

    Sequels that Squandered Potential

    Both Deus Ex: Invisible War and Human Revolution. Granted, all three Deus Ex games rate a solid 8/10 in my book, but all for different reasons. Thief: Deadly Shadows. Not bad by any stretch (and being able to flatten against walls was great), but Thief II's HOOJ levels made it feel much more...

    Really Stupid Things You've Heard/Read Someone Say

    Dear god, these people actually exist. Now we know there is no god. Fucking hell, and the way she badmouths her parents. Wanting them to die because she didn't get the PLATINUM edition? Sounds to me like the little tramp's already entitled enough. I chose to reply to one of the ****'s posts...

    Fictional characters you'd date for non-physical reasons

    Kaylee Frye (Firefly) Seriously, watch any episode of Firefly and try telling me this young lady doesn't melt your heart. Olivia, the chick from God Hand Owait, nonphysical. Nevermind.

    Why Do YOU Buy Used?

    Purely out of spite for Activision.
