So I want to start learning programming. I've been advised that Java is a good place to start. But hell... where do I even start with Java? Does anyone know of a grass roots place to start with programming or good advice? Any help would be appreciated.

Chill out mate it's a discussion. The publisher would have fronted significant amounts of money to ensure those games did get made. So of course they get a cut if not all of the money. They're the parent company that's investing all the money. Forgive me if I'm a tad lacking on knowledge...

But the LP's are making money out of someone elses property. I'm pretty sure ost EULA's state that a game can't be used for personal profit. Shouldn't the LP's pay some royalties to the owner of the game? As we all know, when you purchase a disk/digital copy of a game you're purchasing the...

Ok, so here's an alternative view on the situation. Musicians. They get lots of people saying "hey, can I sample your work for free? It'll get you exposure". I have several friends in the music industry that get this a lot. It doesn't help them and they would potentially lose out by someone...

I enchanted a Daedric long bow that Drains Life and Soul Traps. Couldn't think of anything bad ass so I asked my house mate what I should call it? He said it sucks your life and your soul... What's your girl friend called again? Needless to say I didn't call it Laura. Went with Sorrow instead.

Buy a cheap 2 man tent from Argos. The go anywhere with a beach. Personally I'd recommend Bournemouth. But for you, where ever is far enough away from your place that is close enough you can afford to get there and get blind drunk.

No offense but this is a silly theory. PS3 became a target because they took something very popular away a significant chunk into the consoles life cycle. While not making it particularly clear what's on offer (or not) XB-One has announced from the get go that there'll be some...

Can I apologise for the "Mr UpYourAssington" thing.... Had quite a few pints of Thatchers immediately followed up with a bottle of red after a 12 hour day at work. Wooooo Thursday! I've admittedly never been too fussy with my gaming. Graphics have never been my thing (although they can...

Well, Mr UpYourAssington, I didn't read your previous statement/post. Now that you've quoted me, I still haven't because of... well you being so presumptuous (and being Mr. UpYourAssington - Seriously, change your name to that, it'll be funny). While I do rather enjoy your mild case of...

It's times like this I wish Escapist had a "like" button... OT: I still think consoles are relevant and will continue to be so. Yes PC's can dish out powerhouse graphics that consoles simply cannot compare to nowadays, but consoles can provide affordable gaming with respectable graphics...

Farcry 3. I'm not even sure why. I really enjoyed it when I did bring myself to play it. I just couldn't bring myself to play it. As arse backwards as it sounds, it's possible that I just prefer a bit more linearity to my First Person Shooters

I learnt 2 things from this video: First, these Game Grump guys are idiots. Apparently shouting at stuff is comedy. Second, having seen the game in action, & knowing that you don't have some intrusive RE4 style AI co-op partner, I will be getting this game... Once I'm not as poor as I...

I did question this at first, on my second play through I noticed how they knew his name. When The Didact comes out of his Cryptum, all of The Covenenant reverently say "Didact" while bowing down. I'm not making excuses for poor story telling here, but reading the books gives much more...

My sincerest apologies. I have figured out the source of my confusion now. I had intended to quote and respond to a different post. "You may not have a system that has been affected by this, but I searched for about an hour yesterday and found that there are ALOT of people who have been...

Maybe it's te fact it's gone 2 AM... Maybe it's the fact that I am drunk. Hell, maybe it's the fact that it's 02:18 in the morning and I'm a wee bit merry.... By wee bit merry I do mean pretty drunk.... Have I complained about Xbox firmware? I'm ok with receiving quotes Otherwise I...
