    Poll: Realism vs player's convenience.

    I'll take fun over realism in video games, any day.

    The Angry Birds Movie - Another Garbage Video Game Adaptation

    I don't understand what people were expecting. It's based off of a game where you fling birds at pigs. Did people really expect the movie adaptation to be up there with Casablanca?

    Do you guys care about the best viewing distance from your TV when gaming?

    Yeah, I'm definitely getting 1080p, just haven't decided on a size yet. Do you mind if I ask what size TV you have? That's another thing that's been bugging me. It seems odd for people to be encouraged to sit so close to a TV.

    Kids these days have it too easy!

    It's true. They definitely live in a convenient time. It's up to parents to keep them from being too dependent on technology and having everything handed to them. To the OP: Admit it, when you were younger you used to cuss a lot too. I think every kid did that when they're parents or no...

    Do you guys care about the best viewing distance from your TV when gaming?

    Here's the thing, I'm going to get either an Xbox One or PS4 soon and I want to play it on a 1080p TV. So far I've only owned 720p TVs. There's this thing about how close you have to sit to a TV depending on it's size. For example, if you have a 40" 1080p TV and you sit too far away, you won't...

    How is it that some people get away with "suggestive" games based on copyrighted material?

    Disclaimer: Before you read any further I just want it to be clear that I am not a "hater" and I am not complaining. Also I'm not sure what words I can or cannot use here so I went with "suggestive" in place of something else. I'm sure you guys have seen/played games on sites like Newgrounds...

    It's just me, or people on the internet doesn't seems to understand analogies?

    I feel like this sometimes. I used to think that I was horrible at analogies but now I just think that most people online just don't know what an analogy is. They hear it and it makes sense but since it counters their earlier argument they just lash out and pretend that it doesn't make sense.

    Poll: Would you kill your clone?

    If the clone is just like me then he already knows that I am worried that he'd try to kill me and take over my life. Immediately we'd both try to come up with a clever way to kill the other one. I can only hope that I come out of the battle alive.

    The Creepiest Stuff in a Children's Telvision Show

    Maybe it's because I was a teen (13 or 14) but I never found anything from Courage the Cowardly Dog to be creepy. A little messed up? Yes. But not creepy. Actually he tries to avoid Suzy completely but she's very determined to get his attention. Perhaps it's her who you should be keeping an...

    Ruin-A-Wish Foundation.

    Granted but they're all plastic imitation slices. I wish I had the power to win every coin toss.

    So Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Will Come out in August...

    I don't care. I don't own the turtles or have any financial stake in how well the movie performs. Yes, I like TMNT but if they create a show or movie that I don't like, I just ignore it. Like I ignore the Nick show.

    "Black Lifestyle" in Japan

    I disagree with people saying that this is positive. I'm not saying it's offensive (well, some of it is) but it doesn't show any real signs of acceptance. Usually when a group of people outside of the U.S. adopt the hip hop subculture they have a sort of social and/or emotional connection to it...

    Poll: Does labelled product placement in gaming bother you?

    I've said it before and I'll say it again. It does not bother me at all. Why should it? I see advertisements in real life all the time. Why do people ask for more realistic graphics, AI, vehicle controls etc. yet ads (that they probably see all the time in real life) somehow throw them off or...

    So a black actor is considering role of Johnny Storm and nerdrage has turned racist again.

    PC reasons? So you're saying that someone made the case that it was racially instinctive for Johnny Storm to be white for all these years? Please give me a link to whoever said this. And if you're confused by this, I'm referring to the (true) definition of political correctness.

    LulzSec steals SonyPictures'...everything. *Updated*

    Are you guys serious? Anonymous and LulzSec are the same. What are the chances of two different hackers hacking the same system? I can just imagine the hackers sitting back and laughing at people bicker over who's the better group when there's only one real group.
