    Should organ donation be manditory?

    An Opt-Out system would work much better. Make it as part of your drivers license or voter registration. To those who object, what's wrong with an opt-out system? If you feel THAT strongly about it, you can opt out. If you can't be bothered to read or care, then why should people suffer because...

    Zero Punctuation: Brink

    I think the criticism is more on a different level. First in TF2 the classes are VERY different right from the start. They each have significantly differnent play styles, so even if you never see the class pack you are still getting a different play style if you switch up between a scout and a...

    You've become the main antagonist in a game

    http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/loadingreadyrun/1917-Bad-News I believe this is instructive :)

    Poll: 8 year old Botox girl taken into care

    You can be ambivalent about whether giving Botox to a 6 year old is ok. This is a legal use of the drug. But consider this from the article: The part-time beautician injected her daughter herself, but she refused to say where she got the drugs. "I'd rather not put it out there. I have a...

    Portal 2 "Insane Cube Tricks" Part Two Gets Even Zanier

    It'll be interesting to see if this mechanic can be used in the DLC content. I'm hoping they put in the old 'least steps' 'least portals' 'least time' runs. It'll be interesting to see how this mechanic impacts those game types.

    DLC for Dummies

    I fail to see how it's 'incomplete' in any way shape or form. You play through the single player. In coop your players are white so they are instantly visible under the grey/black backgrounds of the level. They are tall and skinny so that their outlines are also distinct. In TF2 the major...

    Steam Boss Blasts Idea of Digital Sales Charts

    Valve is a private corporation. Thus their need to give data to NPD is pretty limited. They don't have any investors to please so releasing NPD data isn't really relevant to them specifically. Their data is really useful to publishers. I read an article about how their real time tracking of...

    George Takei Demonstrates Why He Should Play Spider-Man

    HAHAHAHA that's an awesome rendition of the song. Maybe they'll incorporate that into his 2nd audition tape :P

    Stranded on a island with only ONE game

    I'm not sure why people are bringing up odd questions and games. When this question is posed there are a few simple assumptions 1) You're on a deserted island 2) You're alone (though 1 kinda makes this redundant but hey!). It also encompasses the idea that you won't be able to play WoW or...

    Poll: If you could be any DBZ character...?

    From a purely practical standpoint it would be much better to be Dr Briefs or Dr Gero. As the former you will make zillions of dollars as the inventor of the Capsules. As the latter, just sell your infinite energy power source to actually make energy instead of powering your insane androids...
