    Escape to the Movies: Rock of Ages

    Gees Bob, more generalizations than normal & I gotta say I found your flip, simple-minded explanation of what 'rock' was about in each decade laughable, ridiculous & even a little offensive. Never mind, I've said it before & I'll say it again, stick to what you're good at, talking about Movies...

    Escape to the Movies: The Thing

    Utter BS, Carpenter's The Thing, 1982. is a Classic. No doubt about it. & a tightly made, ensemble cast, independent work of Genius. Look at the wiki on the film, look at the people involved. It's an enduring film that still stands up right from the opening scenes with ominous sounds from...

    Escape to the Movies: The Thing

    they couldn't remake the the Carpenter classic if they tried, at least they couldn't make it better in any way. Testament to the talent of the Director, cast & crew involved.

    Escape to the Movies: The Thing

    so dumb to even try to prequel one of the greatest genre movies ever made. Carpenter is still alive, at least they could have had him involved. I watch the 1982 classic at least once a year & still love it. Having this crap tacked on to the cannon is disappointing.

    The Call of Duty hate.

    I do not like actavision, no I do not. they broke WoW & churn out these ridiculous Modern warfare games faster than you can believe, they are all the same, the multi-player is purile, OP perks, expensive DLC, no dedicated servers, etc etc. no. won't be buying. you gotta vote with your wallet in...

    What is your current contender for game of the year?

    I really hope Skyrim doesn't disappoint, I'm sure it won't but there would be a lot of unhappy gamers if it ended up like DA2. I don't have a favorite this year, nothing has me super excited yet either, maybe I'm just jaded but I believe the games industry has plateaued a bit in the last 18...

    Fallout NV Old World Blues is so buggy I stopped playing

    Yes, I played the pc version. I verified my games cache on steam & had a corrupted file fixed. since then I haven't had any problems. Trouble is I've really lost the vibe of the game now, my immersion has been destroyed. I seriously thinking of starting a fresh log after approx. 85 hours on this...

    Poll: Who Do You Think is Best RPGs Between Bioware, Square Enix, and Bethesda?

    Well, I loved Just Cause 2, Mass Effect 2, DAO, Fallout3 & NV (although the bugs are maddening & ruin immersion) So I gotta say all three have made games i love. ME2 is probably my favorite RPG of all time tho.

    Fallout NV Old World Blues is so buggy I stopped playing

    Yes, I think I'll look into this, I'm really un-motivated to start playing again tho, such a shame I was really enjoying the content for the 5 minutes before the crashes started.

    "Oh ****! I hope I don't have to fight THAT!" Moments

    I hear that! & Oh noes another scarecrow pain in the ass fight! Could have been the best game ever tho, just lacked a little something.

    Fallout NV Old World Blues is so buggy I stopped playing

    I'm getting conflicting reports, I forgot to mention I'm playing a PC version, I only play games on PC **stares down nose at all consul gamers** I'm seriously considering re-installing & seeing if that helps, I heard that a bad save can cause the game to crash for the rest of that games log so...

    Poll: Diablo 3: Will you buy it?

    yes, I don't like this MT trend & it's a shame Blizzard are doing this to Diablo3. I won't buy & I have been looking forward to this release.

    Fallout NV Old World Blues is so buggy I stopped playing

    Seriously, the game crashes every other time I quick travel or try to load a new environment. The quicksave works about half the time & it just gets beyond a joke trying to get some immersion when you are forced to restart the game every 5 minutes because you didn't un-equip a quest item before...
