1) I do love to play me some support classes - not support classes as they're listed in game, more classes that can take support roles. Mainly medic, and Pyro with The Home Wrecker to protect engie nests from spies. I used to stick to things that didn't require me to aim, but having gotten...

I can't help but notice the supreme irony of you proclaiming that people are pro-stupid because they dislike something that's been proven incorrect. As in, you think people support stupidity because they're trying to correct people on something they have incorrect. Or at least that's how it's...

You can look at all the "sexually explicit" events, along with the rest of them, here: http://axelkatten.tumblr.com/post/91597186818/fierzzz-lets-stop-beating-around-the-bush-with The red ones are the 18+ ones, by the way. Honestly, this thing is both incredibly worrying, and hilariously...

I think I may have miscommunicated my original point: I wasn't saying the study didn't exist at all, I was more asking for the study to be shown. And why am I doing the work to disprove a theory? You want to state a claim that the studies exist, that places the burden of proof on you. As I...

Let me reiterate the point: You can't just say "The study exists" and expect everyone to believe it to be the case right there and then. I would assume, considering you know of this study, that you've seen it. Considering it's a study on the video game industry, that puts it at around 20 or 30...

I dunno, as much as I agree that this kind of thing isn't the way we wanna go, Jim, I'm still not 100% sure this is the way that we are going, even in terms of GDC. See, if the presentations are being cynically designed with the message of "How to leach the most money from your customers with...

Well of course they do. They say something about our tendencies when effected by adrenaline, at the very least. I never said that they don't - the effect is still interesting. But at the very least, a bit more information about how long this aggression lasts would be nice - not vital, but at...

The irony of it all: One of the first times I've seen LGBTs in comics discussed here in any sort of positive light, and it's ultimately only done so you - and I suppose all of us as well, considering the comments - can do a metaphorical fandango on someone's grave while the body is still warm...

Mainly because as it stands, what use do the results have? I mean, if the effect of the aggression increase only lasts for, say, 15 minutes, unless you're sitting in the same general area as the player - and if you are that usually suggests a prior connection to the person in question that...

Rewinding to this part - I realize a bunch of people took a tangent into disagreeing with the one-in-six woman thing, but it's seeming valid from a quick glance at the first source [https://www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles/172837.pdf] - The thing is, just about any solution would be better then just...

Credit where it's due: the implication you attribute isn't necessarily the case here. The only thing we can truly glean from it is that 55% of women in the industry at the very least believe that they didn't always want to. I would assume that at least some of them went through the same process...

Wow, the amount of statistical rubbish spouted here is almost insulting. Well, not the amount, more the egregious nature of it. Congratulations! You've answered a completely unrelated question. So you found a bunch of people already working in the industry and asked them if they always...

That's the thing, though. I had enough context once I saw the ad to know where that was going to come from. (Just into the 2nd day when I saw it.) I didn't know when exactly the boss was going to appear, but I knew he was coming at some point in time. Maybe that's only a small part, but it's...

I've got a beef with South Park. But it isn't anything to do with the show or the game. No, actually, it's the advertisement of said game. The advertisement of Stick Of Truth seems to be fairly indicative of gaming's advertisement ethos in general for a few of reasons, including: 1) No...

You have a point there - quality is just as important, if not more so, then quantity. At the same time, though, quantity does play a part in things all the same. Personally my reasons for not buying the game are less value for money and more not really being into Metal Gear or stealth games in...
