    The Amazing Spider-Man 2 had some cool costumes, and I liked that they all had individual stats, on top of the aesthetic differences. Also, while it looked and ran absolutely terribly on my PC (framerates jumping from 60 to 20 while staring at the sky), it didn't look completely awful when...

    Recommend me some good coop games/tell me what you think of the ones I've found

    I've only just bought it in the Steam sale, but I've heard Payday 2 is a lot of fun playing co-op. The Achievement Hunters played it a while back, but I think that may have been the beta.

    How are you liking GTA V?

    I just finished GTAV the other day. I thought it was incredible how they pulled off what they did on such old hardware. It makes me excited for a PC release (as long as it's at least somewhat optimized), because the only graphical hitches I can see are the aliasing, and the LOD distance, which...

    What was the most satisfying weapon you've used in a game?

    The melee weapons in The Last of Us are satisfyingly brutal, but I'm gonna have to go with the Desert Eagle in Rainbow Six Vegas 2. It has an impact sound that's just so satisfying. I was playing split screen co-op with my friend, and I was taking cover behind a box. My friend was all like...

    Easter Egg in The Stanley Parable

    I don't know if this is considered a spoiler, but The Stanley Parable is just so insane and wonderful that I'd hate to spoil anything for anyone. Don't really know where else to share this but The Escapist. So there ya go.

    So I've finally gotten around to playing Tomb Raider...

    I remember thinking that it was pretty unrealistic, but I didn't think much of it because not many games take the time to actually make that aspect even close to realistic. Then I played The Last of Us, and the EXACT same injury happens to Joel, except if he didn't have Ellie, he would have...

    Poll: Just Cause 2 and 100% completion

    I spent my time tethering PLANES to planes that were taking off. I think it spent about 15 hours total just at the International Airport, tethering planes to the ground, or to a lighthouse, or to another plane, or to an enemy. One time I flew a plane right up next to another plane, tethered...

    Songs You Can Listen To Over & Over Again?

    I love you. This is one of my favourite songs in one of my favourite shows of all time. I was going through the soundtrack one day, listening to this song in the background, not knowing exactly which song it was or when it played in the show, just doing other stuff. When 2:09 hit, I just...

    Scariest monsters/creatures in video games.

    Nowadays I would say things like Pyramid Head and the Amnesia monster, like everyone else, but this guy was probably my first real terrifying video game encounter. Even now, almost 10 years older, the way he says "DIIIIIIEEEEE" still sounds terrifying to me. I've remembered the exact way he...

    Hands on with the PS4 controller

    I'm liking the look of the new controller. The only thing I don't agree with is how he didn't like the analog sticks. I like how they're ridged now, although I never had a problem with the DS3's sticks in that regard, but I'm worried the sticks are going to be more stiff now, similar to the...

    Games that you find more fun when your cheating.

    I wouldn't actually play through the story with the cheats on, but in Red Faction: Guerrilla, running around with super running speed, super powerful hammer, and super health, as well as the cheat where enemies go flying for miles when hit, is incredibly cathartic. You just run ridiculously...

    Questions and spoilers about Bioshock Infinite.

    I read that he was a guy that Comstock had sent to the lighthouse to kill Booker when he arrived (because he'd seen the future, where Booker arrived, through a tear), and the guy had been killed by the Luteces, who then left a message for Booker saying "Don't disappoint us". That's also why...

    Who has a brag worthy machine?

    OS: Windows 7 CPU: Intel i5 3570K RAM: 8GB GPU: Nvidia GTX 670 Screen: I forget the exact model #, but it's a Samsung, 24" LED Keyboard: Nothing to brag about Mouse: Razer Deathadder Headphones: Fatal1ty. Thinking about buying a new one. EDIT: I guess I should talk about the limits...

    "YOU CAN STEER THE TORPEDO?" moments

    The year was 2001. Pokemon Gold was the game. Being 8 years old, I didn't realize you could use the spray bottle to fight Sudowoodo, so I just trained and trained and trained in the grass against level 15 Hoothoots until my Typhlosion was level 60. At least I had the sense to teach him...
