    Poll: What Personality Traits Do You Find Attractive?

    Well I can definitely tell you that I avoid women who are overly emotional and irrational. I do love a good sense of humour though (the more dry and dark, the better!).

    Games like Mass Effect?

    I also advocate Alpha Protocol. It's really good. Just make sure you get it on PC, I hear it's neigh unplayable on Xbox. Besides that, you might try the elder scrolls game (personally I think Skyrim is the best one but there are a lot of opinions on that series) or the Witcher (second one is...

    Would you support a cure for homosexuality and transexualism?

    I would support a mandatory "gay" vaccine only if there were a serious problem with population decline and the adding the roughly 5% of gay people back into the breeding pool would make enough of a difference to matter. Otherwise, no. One for transexuality, though, I would support, because...

    Escapist News Now: Dragon Age: Inquisition PAX Prime 2013 Preview

    Er... what? Why does this look like Skyrim!? Is bioware completely oblivious to the large number of people liked the first one, and liked it because of the gameplay!? Ah well. I wasn't planning on getting it unless it reviewed really well with the community and it looks like the...

    Knights of the Old Republic

    I didn't see it coming at all (In my defence I was pretty young when I played it), but even now I still think it's a pretty good twist. Now I've got a hankering to play KOTOR again but it doesn't play nice with my new computer. /le sigh.

    Poll: Rome 2 Total War Excitement!

    (...I can't have been the only one who liked Empire and Napoleon...) In any case, I intend to start off as Carthage as they were my favourite faction in the first one, and I didn't even use their elephants for the most part.

    Epic moments in Civilization/Empire games

    Well, playing crusader kings 2: old gods, I started as the the king of aragon (...I think) in the year 863. I managed to unite christian spain, drive the muslims out of Ibera, then pressed further and further south until I conquered all of Mali and Songhai... all before 1100. Granted, my...

    Zero Punctuation: Papers, Please and Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons

    I have no idea how anyone can use the internet on a regular basis and still be as thin-skinned as many of the people in this thread. As for the game itself, the immigration ministry doesn't care what you self identify as (that's a useless question to ask for the purposes of identification...

    That one mistake...

    I remember one post I saw in the WoW forums that absolutely baffled me. It was a relatively long post that turned out to be a veritable wall of text with no separation of paragraphs and inexplicably consistent failures to spell simple 4-letter words correctly. What puzzled me, though, was the...

    Kick-Ass 2: Did they go too far this time? (Spoilers)

    Well, my opinion is that there is no subject matter in the world that can't be joked about. Hell, I almost feel like the moral crusaders getting up in arms over a joke almost becomes part of the joke itself. I've personally made jokes about such things as genocide and torture, and I have...

    Poll: Do you like the British Royal Family?

    Canadian here, and long live the queen, I say. I think there's a lot to be said for both an unelected party with some measure of power over the government (not a lot, mind you, perhaps just enough to inform the house of commons when they're being dumb and to go back and try again) as well as...

    A royal baby

    Well, as a Canadian loyal to the monarchy, I'm glad it turned out to be a boy. Quebec would surely have used the opportunity to raise a stink about it all. I don't expect it made much news outside of the commonwealth, though. Nobody else really has that much reason to care.

    Would you like the next Elder Scrolls game to focus on Elsewyr or Black Marsh?

    What I'd like to see is Akavir. Start the next game as a part of the second imperial expidition to Akavir, get cut off from the main continent, make the choice between trying to subjegate or establish peaceful relations with the locals... there are a lot of possibilities there, especially...

    Assassin's Creed IV "More Immersive" on PS4

    I really wish they'd decided to make this a new IP. As it is it's going to be hampered by the ridiculous story, framing device and combat of assassin's creed instead of making a game about pirates.

    Why are they lying about food ?

    So basically, if I ever find myself in China for some reason, just don't eat anything. Got it. Here in Canada I think out food regulations are pretty good for the most part. We do get some fake stuff but it's actually labelled as fake (imitation, artificial, etc) and it still has to go by the...
