Nowadays I buy most of my games from Steam, but on the rare occasion when I buy a physical copy reading the manual is the first thing I do. Even though most of what's in them is pretty useless to me, I still enjoy looking through them, especially if there is some unique art or flavour text...

I think this is the first 100% negative review I've seen on the Escapist. I enjoyed it very much. I remember a few months ago when some trailers for Damnation were released on Steam, I watched one and got very confused. The developer was talking about 'never before seen' platforming while...

I was in my ICT class, and my teacher suddenly yelled "Hey, Michael Jackson died!" About five seconds later someone else got a text message saying "Michael Jackson just died!" Then the bell rang and I subsequently saw about 15 people walk up to other people and say "Michael Jackson just died!"...

I wish I was playing TF2, because a couple of my friends are. And in a few minutes, I will be.

My only problem with L4D2 is the issue of price. I bought L4D less than 6 months ago, with the expectation that, as a Valve multiplayer game, it would have a long lifespan. Now it seems that just less than a year after its release, the original L4D will be obsolete. If I have to buy another game...

MEDIC! Also I'm pretty sure if you edit the poll after it's made you can add a 9th option.

Microsoft pays developers to release DLC, and Sony charges developers for releasing DLC. Sony doesn't make it easy for people to like them. I'm glad I'm a PC gamer.

I heard a while back that it would slow down your internet by 80%. They better not come over to NZ with this shit.

I have perfect vision, no glasses here. It surprises me how much the geek/glasses stereotype is holding up in the poll.

I would write a law that meant I could post anything, and then people who read it would have to substitute a witty, ironic comment and laugh. It's just too much effort to do all the work myself.

Valve are good at making realistic and sexy female characters. Both Zoey in Left 4 Dead and Alyx in Half-Life 2 are realistic looking and accurately proportioned, but still attractive.

I played it for the first time about a month ago, and I was surprised by how well it could still stand up against a brand new FPS. Honestly, if that game was released for the first time today, with better graphics but the same level design and gameplay, I would still consider it one of the best...

That's fine, but I can tell you you're missing out. For science fiction books, there is a lot of religious discussion. But it is always presented as a reasonable discussion between those with different views. Each side is given fairly equal merit, and in fact it is normally the main characters...

I have the ability to manipulate time and space. Only survival skill I'll ever need. Since I can't think of any others, I guess I would be screwed.

Second day in a row, no gaming. Damn this oppressive parental regime! How dare they suggest I do homework!
