    Is it time for feminists to step off our hobby?

    Feminists can stay. Misandrists can get out.

    Should I play the first Mass Effect?

    It's very rough around the edges but I think it's the best in the franchise.

    What makes a good sandbox game?

    The world itself has to be interesting and the content shouldn't feel like busywork or a collectathon. Padded out content is the death knell for any game. You can advertise that you have 100+ hours of content, but if 95% of that content is boring or recycled I wouldn't call it a benefit. If I...

    Why Don't Consoles Have Performance Settings Like PCs?

    Because it just works?, even if it's at 25 FPS and plays like ass. Anything to squeeze out some slightly prettier marketing bullshots. Barf. I do wish they'd give us the choice though. A ton of console games used to be 60 frames in the 6th gen and I'd gladly sacrifice a ton of fidelity to get...

    Poll: Compulsory Military Service

    I like the idea. I think being sent off to war should stay optional, but military service itself would be fine.

    What game has kept you up the longest?

    I used to do all nighters all the time when I got a new game, but now I never do now that I've gotten older. It's too hard to recover from now. Dark Souls was the one exception to that recently, I used to do all day and all night sessions with that game.

    Poll: What do you think of the WiiU now?

    I pick on it a lot but it's getting there. It has better couch co-op than the Xbone or PS4 and a lot of great games you can't get anywhere else. The library's small but it's at least a bit better than you'd think. I just wish their E3 conference had more 2014 and less 2015.

    Poll: What's So Funny About Truth, Justice & the American Way? - Real Issues in Entertainment

    Why not have both? Sci-fi often does both of those at the same time, especially stuff like cyberpunk. And personally, as someone who is poor as shit I need some escapism in my life sometimes. Being poor is a hole that I'm probably never going to drag myself out of and it's nice to be able...

    Poll: StarWars Expanded Universe Getting Axed and If People other than me and a select few "SW Nerds" Care

    Honestly, with something as vast as Star Wars I think it's best to just have a headcanon. There's a lot of great EU stuff out there but there's also a lot of schlock.
