    Diablo III Game Director Steps Down

    Hopefully he gets allocated to database management or web-page design or something like that were he cant do much damage. Wait there are still people playing D3 because he mentioned something about "in fine health".

    Jimquisition: Only The Lonely

    I would love to have Dragon Age 3 and Mass Effect 4 to have a co-op mode to play it together with a friend. Especially after I played The old Republic with a buddy. That experience was awesome but hindered by the game design of a MMORPG. The scenes were not nearly as epic as in a single...

    Fellow Ladies, Ever Have Something Like This Happen to You?

    Well, from a males perspective that buys new cloth only when it's dissolving the problem was that you trashed your bra in the washing machine. What you need is one of these: http://f.666kb.com/i/ca7chkvfyo0q64m4r.jpg It is a washing net were you put your lingerie inside so it does not get...

    Jimquisition: Dumbing Down for the Filthy Casuals

    I'm generally not against this kind of "help" but as always in game design it has to be implemented correctly. The NSMB system seems o.k. but I don't know all the details of the system. The real problem arises when the casual-mode affects the enjoyment of the other people. A prime example...

    Escapist Podcast: 058: Layoffs at PopCap & Dragon Age 3 Leaks

    I have to say that the trauma center games on the wii really are awesome because of the motion control of the "wiimote" (a strange fact: my friends and me always called it like that). On the other hand while I played Skyward Sword I cursed the controls many many times. They did some neat stuff...

    Rumor: Survey Spills Details on Dragon Age 3

    What no female Hawke playable in Dragon Age 3??? Screw you Bioware Hawke was the only good thing in DA2. I thought Dragon Age 2 should be the introduction of a new hero and thus the storyline was so... strict and the player could not choose the faith of the people around them? *sigh* All...

    Jimquisition: Old Man Mario

    I'm not quite sure if I can agree with Jim on this topic and I try a different angle. So before we start I have to say that I don't own any current Nintendo system and thus none of the new Mario games. But I played ah good amount of SMG 1 and 2 and the New Super Mario wii game. I think the...

    The Big Picture: On The Subject Of Violence

    I'm sorry, but it seems that I phrased it incorrectly. What I want to express is the following. Even in countries with strict gun control these shootings happen with legally bought weapons. So it seems that strict gun control obviously doesn't prevent killing sprees. But you can wreak so...

    The Big Picture: On The Subject Of Violence

    On the topic of gun control and killing sprees. In Germany all school shootings happened with legally owned and purchased weapons. And Germany has one of the rigid laws in the world. That said I cannot imagine how much more suffering these shootings would have caused if these culprits had access...
