    Mass Effect 3's Ending Was Intended To Polarize

    I was hoping for a Dragon Age: Origins ending with the Reapers defeated and a big party and you get to talk to everyone afterwards and see what happened. Maybe even the slide show epilogue that explained what each of the characters went on to do in the universe now that the Reapers had finally...

    Take the "Which Mass Effect Species Are You?" Personality Quiz!

    Reading all the questions in the voice of Wrex. I'm ready for ME3.

    Jimquisition: When Piracy Becomes Theft

    You aren't morally repulsed by it therefore it's not bad? What I want to know is whether "copying isn't bad" people see the big picture. Do you see the other side of the equation? When you copy something without paying for it, someone isn't getting the money that you would normally have paid...

    Jimquisition: When Piracy Becomes Theft

    I get what you're saying, but the semantics are what people are hiding behind. I stand by trying to stick an "X = Y" onto it because someone added something of value to the world, and they choose to ignore that value, even as they go out of their way to add it to their own life. If you go to...

    Jimquisition: When Piracy Becomes Theft

    All these people saying that "piracy isn't theft" because it's not actually stealing anything just come across as ignorant pedophile burglars to me. If you do a runner on a taxi, or if you don't pay for a trip to the doctor, you aren't really stealing anything either, just their time. But that...

    Jimquisition: Piracy Episode One - Copyright

    And this is where we see what SOPA and PIPA were really about- you couldn't be attached to any other company if you wanted to distribute your own work on the internet because then the other company would have the site taken down. This was their plan to kill online distribution. Looks like ESA...

    Poll: Skyrim- Did you kill Paarthurnax?

    Delphine is a pain in the ass and I certainly wouldn't kill Paarthurnax because she told me to. That said, it's likely that, dragons living forever, something will probably happen and Paarthurnax would be killed and a power hungry dragon would take his place. But I believe that Paarthurnax is...

    The most obscure game you own.

    Chameleon Twist for N64. Fun, but short, particularly for the time it was made.

    Why do people have such faith in humanity?

    I don't really know if I have faith in people to do the right thing or not, but I get the feeling in a couple of years you won't be so worried about it. Just support the people who do the right thing and look after yourself. I try to be a good person and I think others do to.

    Extra Punctuation: Not All Sequels Suck

    I keep telling myself that as game development becomes more complicated and involved, the tools will have to get easier to use and it's only a matter of time before people with little knowledge of programming or rigging a skeleton can make a game. I think everyone (well at least most people on...

    BioWare Trims Mass Effect 3 Squad to Focus on Deeper Relationships

    Oh man... I actually liked having so many characters in ME2. I'm going to guess it will be cut down to 6 with some DLC characters like Me1 and DA2. Probably Kaiden/Ashley and Liara, also I can't see Garrus or Tali coming this far and not coming along. That said- depending on who survived the...

    So what if I pirate games, why should you care?

    Why should I care? Because I pay money for games. I buy my music. I buy my movies. It's not just game piracy, it's just plain piracy that annoys me. The people who are saying that "people just love to get on their high-horses" are right, but that doesn't mean that piracy is okay. Pirates are...

    Zero Punctuation: Dragon Age II

    Wasn't this what Dragon Age: Origins was supposed to be? Once I noticed it, it was pretty hard not to see it everywhere. It's too serious and brown for Minsc though. One thing he didn't notice that I thought he would is that there are a lot of things presented as choices, but you actually...

    Dragon Age 2 what makes you the most angry?

    Things that most annoyed me were the things in the story- biggest one is sister petrice. Also the Arishok- what the hell did he think would happen? You turn up and hang around for four years in a city where the templars are the main line of defense and complain that you're not welcome when you...
