    Science Proves Your Grandma Right About Pop Music

    So...? It's a fairly arbitrary fact that just means what it means, yet everybody is acting as if it means all pop songs are now officially horrible and completely identical. It doesn't, even if there was a huge difference in how homogenised everything is now compared to before, it means...

    Poll: Red Dwarf X

    Doesn't matter how I feel about it, I'm going to watch it out of curiosity if nothing else. If it's good, it's good, if it's bad, I'll still enjoy the older ones. With just one of the two original writers, or producers or whatever it is they are like it was with Back to Earth I'm certainly...

    Men and homophobia

    Your post reminds me of primary school when if people got insulted, the usual reply was just "Oh, you're just jealous!" I mean that in, sure, it's a possibility that does sort of make sense, but it's just being asserted because it's a possibility, there's plenty others that are just as valid...

    Poll: Poll: How should DayZ servers handle PVP in future?

    As it is now, it's like EVE Online. If you play the game for PvE, you go into it accepting that PvP can, and will, happen. It also has so many options to befriend, betray, or jsut whaever you want within the PvP because of how open ended and freeform it is. PvP makes the game good, people are...

    Poll: was i out of line?

    It's painful, but literally only for a few minutes before it goes away and you'd need to do it pretty severely to do any sort of damage so I don't see anything wrong with it. I wouldn't have done it myself, but in anger I can understand why you would have done it. So sure, it was fine, although...

    Your most evil gaming atrocities

    Do you count multiplayer games? In EVE I once baited some guy to, through game mechanics, allow me to kill his 200mil ISK ship. I then apologised and agreed to join his corp to stop him hireing mercenaries to decalre war on me (a threat often made, never done though, so no risk of him doing...

    Poll: Are you happy?

    I used to be a cynical misanthrope and actually quite depressed for a few years of my life until I realised I what enjoying what I was doing, I didn't appreciate what I had, and being a miserable person by nature wasn't helping. Now I'm happy pretty much all the time unless something happens...

    Poll: Flawlwss Victory: Can you think of a game that is perfect?

    Homeworld 1 is the closest game to perfect. The UI has some issues though, Cataclysm UI seemed much better, and it hasn't aged quite as well graphically as it maybe could have. It doesn't look bad. Aesthetic is great, love how they wanted it to look, but textures are slightly too pixel-y and...

    Pressured to Play

    Sort of I guess kinda? I have a small group of people who I only know online and really enjoy playing games with, they've been very persistent about me getting Guild Wars 2 even though I'm pretty sure I'd hate it, and I probably will get it when it's out. It's not that I feel pressured into it...

    What's your life's "that"?

    I can think of multiple things that would count according to your description. StarCraft II is certainly one of them. Just StarCraft in general, not just the game. My mindset has changed almost completely since I've been involved in that game since I got involved in that community, from...

    Youtube Gamers

    Mostly just people from TGS. While I'm sure Machinima has some people I'd find entertaining, most of it I've watched seems to be aimed towards a target demographic who... erm... to put it nicely, they'd find fart jokes funny and probably weren't alive during the first half of the 1990's. Othert...

    You will never be good at Melee again.

    If you're playing with some friends for some fun, then sure, constraints on what people can/can't do so even the worst player there can still have fun and have a chance at winning is a pretty good idea. But in a competetive context, which this is, "cheap", "unfair", "bullshit" etc just don't...

    You will never be good at Melee again.

    He wouldn't do it if it wasn't effective. He's playing to win. No reason to hate him for it.

    The last thing killed, or that you beat, in a game is now right next to you.

    An entire zerg army controlled by a statistically average commander. The world *might* be ruined. Have fun.

    Poll: Gaming & partying & wasting time.

    I think it might be slightly biased here, given it's a gaming forum. But my asnwer is neither, don't see why it has to be so black and white. I don't enjoy straight up parties with all strangers because I'm really introverted so I'd struggle with that. So the only ones I go to are when...
