    Poll: Top 10 most overrated games I?ve ever played *WALL OF TEXT AHOY!*

    Try leaving this sort of stuff to Zero Puncuation. Yahtzee does it FAR better than you anyway.

    What Race Do You Use In Skyrim? [And Why]

    High Elf, because their racial ability - Highborn - may as well read, "For the next 60 seconds, spells you cast don't cost any Magicka." I need no other reason, but as a secondary reason, I've always loved spellcasters in any RPG, whether it be a videogame or a sit-down-at-a-table RPG.

    Poll: Is Piracy Really That Bad?

    The only argument one could ever make in favour of piracy is this: The game is not available for retail purchase in my country/region. That's it. If you want to experience a game, and it is physically impossible for you to aquire a copy (ie, the copies aren't in your region, either physically or...

    I took him out with fire summons, dual-casting Firebolt and Lydia as a follower.

    Poll: So... did Skyrim meet your personal expectations?

    While I'm not that far into the main story, and haven't played it all that much, the quests do seem interesting enough. They take you to different locations (so far anyway), and introduce you to all sorts of different creatures and challenges, each with multiple ways to defeat or overcome them...

    Skyrim Oddities

    Yeah, that Frost Troll was a total douche-nozzle. I found it difficult, and I was a Mage, with Fire magic, a Flame summon, destruction dual-casting AND a follower (Lydia, I believe). It killed me the first time, while I was on my way tp High Hrothgar. Which wouldn't be so bad, if I had saved...

    Is it that hard to find a virgin?

    Alright, let me get this straight. Let's say you go to a friends birthday, and you meet a girl. She's funny, you like her, you and her share a lot of common interests, whatever and so on. Why does it matter if she's tried weed once, or enjoys a little drink on the side, or has the odd cigerette...

    Your blood is now a different colour...

    This, always and forever. Expect not Cyan blood for me; black. Black like my shoes.

    Poll: What's really hurting the Game industry?

    I would say other. As has been eluded to before, most game nowadays take so long to make, and cost so much money, that studios really want to make sure their idea sells. Therefore, they'd rather greenlight, say, Halo 4, Gears of War 3 or Sterrt Fighter... I dunno, 7,000 or something - but you...

    Do you get upset if Yahtzee trashes a game you like?

    I honestly think it's a bit deeper than that. As a disclaimer, by the way, no I don't get upset when Yahtzee dislikes a game that I liked. Ultimately, he's paid, not only to review games, but specifically to be an ass (no offense to the charasmatic stallion). It's like he himself once...

    Can (Internet) Piracy ever be Justified?

    I'm a big fan of many RPGs, such as WoD, D&D, Eclipse Phase etc, trust me, the list goes on for quite a while - Shadowrun - sorry, I'll stop now. My point, is that, while I have an extensive collection of hard copy books, it just isn't pracical to carry all of these books back and forth to...

    I will debate almost anything

    You can't do the bold step (ie, you can't divide by (a - b)). This is because a is equal to be, and so, (a - b) = 0. You can't divide by zero (in this instance at least). Therefore, by this proof, 2=/=1.

    Concentration Camp Game Canceled Due to Backlash

    Exactly. It's off limit for games, yet it's ok for it to be explored in other media like TV, Cinema, Books, Radio talk shows and news papers. But not games, oh FUCK no! Some people are idiots...
