    Call of Duty now Casual?

    Games are only as "hardcore" as their players. Dark Souls is considered by many to be Hardcore, but if someone just picks it up every so often, plays a bit, doesn't do very well, and puts it back for later...you see where I'm going here? If you sink a shitload of your time and effort into a...

    I used to dislike Anita Sarkeesian, but...

    My stance is still and always has been that I just don't care. Couldn't care less about her or her videos. Maybe if they actually seemed like they might spur some form of change I may take note, but otherwise, just another person shouting about things that hardly effect people in their daily...

    Regular Artists that draw porn.

    Why should I care what they do in their spare time? I'm not the one making it. That's how I feel anyway. It's their own artistic license and right to do with their skillset what they please, and if you feel like cranking out some nudes on the side, or full time, that's your perogative...

    Games with the most immersive 1st person views.

    Minecraft with moody lighting, visual field set to a level where it fish-eye's a bit, and the proper texture pack/mods :p

    The one thing that REALLY matters in the "fake geek girl" debate.

    What do I consider a fake geek? I couldn't give two shits less. Geek isn't even a culture, and it's idiotic that people have started referring to it as one. For an example, it's sort of like how black rappers and "gangstah's" adopted the n-word and use it in casual conversation with one...

    Half-Life 3 Won't Be At E3 2014, Says Valve

    Because they've been too busy making hats for TF2 and getting fat off of that money they made with Left4Cash-in 2. Valve is afraid to show up at E3 because there's a 3 in the name. Honestly, I couldn't care less at this point. It will come out when it comes out, and it will be more of the...

    Outdated/Annoying gaming mechanics?

    Escort missions. Now, when the escort is actually a human being and not the dumbest bag of rocks in a human skin, it's okay. But that's most never the case. The idiotic escort will just stand there, unmoving, usually making some little cowaring animation, as monsters tear them a new...

    New Smash Bros won't have story or cutscenes because of... the internet

    This, the main campaign for Brawl was quite boring, I felt forcing the player to play as specific fighters was a step down to the more encompassing adventure mode, not like Brawl's story was winning any sort of amazing awards, anyway. OT: That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I myself...

    Poll: Do you "time" your DLC?

    Normally I'll wait until a time that I feel is fitting for it, if you actually have a realistic choice in the matter. For example, Kasumi's DLC in ME2 was played in the middle of recruiting my squadmates. Overlord was played a short time after clearing the first few loyalty missions. Shadow...

    Poll: Beautiful Game Endings: Do They Bring You To Tears?

    Never. Not so much as a sniff. But not because I claim I'm overly manly, they just haven't really gotten to me. I mean, I've wanted to have one of those experiences where a game's plot, characters, or story makes me shed at least a single tear, but it's never happened. I played To the...

    Poll: Clementine vs Ellie

    Am I the only one who found Clementine incredibly annoying and could see her for the forced human aspect she was? Just me? Well, okay then.

    Would you like the next Elder Scrolls game to focus on Elsewyr or Black Marsh?

    I love Argonians slightly more than the Cats. Also, the Argonian Account was my favorite book series in the games. I went out of my way searching shelves to try and find each volume. And they made Black Marsh sound quite interesting. I was thinking they could use the weird tuber-worms they...

    Your Top Ten Favorite Video Games

    Hey, now, I do indeed read other people's lists. I find it interesting to see differing opinions, also it helps me think back on games they mention and helps me to figure out my own. No need to be a bunch of Debbie Downers up in heya. In no particular order. 1. Metro 2033 (I quite enjoy...

    One Monster or Many?

    It has to be done correctly. Like the invincible Ubermorph in Dead Space. Without all of the cannon fodder thrown in your path, it was already scary enough as it was. Actually...if the single monster is invincible, then it's much scarier in my opinion than many that you can kill. I...

    If you had to name your son after a video game character, who would you choose and why?

    Well, the thing is I wanted to name my son Isaac, which has nothing to do with Dead Space. If I had to choose a character...shit, the only name I actually like from video games is Artyom. Artyom from the Metro series. He's a badass and a total hero, as well as the name just being fucking...
