    I don't understand what people find so attractive about women. What is it and why?

    TLDR version: read the final paragraph. As many people have said: "There is no satisfactory answer to your question." It basically boils down to personal taste. I have a friend that like big natural breasts and isn't interested if there's little on the chest. Personally I prefer the smaller...

    A View From the Road: Welcome to the Massive World

    I would say a game needs to tick three boxes to be classed as an MMO. First you need to justify the first M. So to be Massive you would need upwards of hundreds of players on the same map at the same time. Even if they are not interacting with each other. Second there must be a persistent...

    Games you wish had a sequel.

    Because Oddworld Inhabitants looked at the way the games industry worked after Stranger and decided it wasn't for them anymore and went to make films... Some light on the horizon though: they recently re-released Abe's Oddysee and Exodus on Steam. They sold so well that they have agreed to...

    230: Get the Hell Out Of Dodge

    I do enjoy the opening mostly. Yes it is a depressing take on an opressed city, but it does set up the whole theme of the game. That climb up the wire after the destruction of the slums is great in terms of story. Oh, and screw the stairs! Pile in the front door, knock a few heads in and take...

    PC gamers, why are you here?

    AcacianLeaves: Seriously, look into building your own... £500 will net a PC that will play any game better than a 360 (Including monitor, mouse, keyboard). Current exchange rate gets that as roughly $830. And if you want to overclock it too it will play games better than a top of the range...

    A View From the Road: Virtual Turkey

    I'm thankful for developers that create games that run well on 6-year old PCs (Torchlight runs smoothly at Max Detail. :) ) I'm thankful for Steam: Making a games collection take less space, automatically keeping games up to date and for quite frankly rediculously low sale prices. For...

    Reliable Source: Top Gaming Gifts for People You Don?t Like

    Aye. I guess that's the style? Still finding my way around the text portions of the site.

    Reliable Source: Top Gaming Gifts for People You Don?t Like

    Did anyone else notice that the article seemed to end on page 1 and then start onto another article on subsequent pages? Read the last 3 pages with a confused expression.

    A review of Yatzee's ZP reviews of anything multiplayer

    Yahtzee has chosen his style and I agree with his sticking with it. He makes no bones about the fact that he is not a multiplayer gamer. If you asked him to review those games it would be like asking a reviewer who only reviews RPGs to review the next Fifa game. They could do it, but they...

    Play Life and Live Games

    Thought provoking... Not really considered sites like Facebook or even this as a game. Though I have thought life could do with something like achievements. Give you some clear goals and if they were visible to others, allows people to see what you are like. These badges are giving me an...

    The Books That Founded D&D

    Very interesting, I think my bookshelf is going to need an extension now. :) It is nice to see these influences, I haven't played D&D since 2nd edition, and then I only really played the basic game. But even from that I could tell it was influenced by Tolkein, but there must have been a lot...

    Emergency Alerts May Be Coming to Your Xbox

    Good idea, but has the potential to get very annoying. "There's a fire in Downtown New York! Roads in x district are closed." What do I care? I'm sat in the outskirts of New York (or more accurately; I'm sat in the UK, but run with it) and do not intend to go downtown; I'm busy shooting...

    Editor's Note: Editor's Choice

    I have not and do not intend to purchase MW2. No I don't hate it. it just holds no interest for me. Games like this, that seem to have the potential to be big sellers, tend to get over-hyped to the point where they get fanatical followings before people buy the game or even hear reviews from...

    Who here feels that they are socially inept because their not enough of a douchebag?

    The problem is that kind of inane behaviour is lauded by the kind of people you get to see and hear about. I feel I have been a social outcast amongst my age group as I never bought into the whole behaviour. Why, for example, is it fun to go out, get so drunk you start throwing up and...
