I CAST FIST

I don't think that this kind of subtext was intended from the beginning. That's pretty safe to say. However, the idea that you can find this subtext and meaning based on your own experiences with the game fit within it's own themes of open ended, player driven gameplay. You get what you put into...

This is by far my favorite movie, and I have to go with Father Pablo. I love the exchange between him and Tuco.

Oh no someone is breaking the mold and doing something different. Fire up the rage machines and call the secret police. I think it looks awesome, and I love Gearbox's humor so I really can't wait. The Inglorious Basterds influence is pretty clear but I can't say thats a bad thing. EDIT...

You haven't played Team Fortress 2? Don't get me wrong, the aesthetics(I think its a much better word to use, because I'm talking about the overall visual style) in Mirrors Edge were great and definitely served a large role in the way the game itself was played. But Team Fortress took it even...

WHY?! Why do people insist on hacking them to death. I know that they did something wrong, but at this point you are also hurting their customers and everyone else that makes products for them. You aren't being an activist, you aren't some sort of freedom fighter. You are a prick who's hurting...

Whats worse that the profile itself is the reason that they think you have potential to kill them all. They are making sweeping generalizations about subcultures, genres, and ideological beliefs.

I thought I was going to regret Brink, but happily I have not. I don't pre-order very many games. I think Portal 2, L4D2, Bad Company 2, and Brink were the only ones I have. There may have been one or two I'm forgetting, but my point is is that I've never regretted a pre-order and don't believe...

I got STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl for 2 dollars. One of my favorite games off all time, about 100 hours and going.

Mass Effect 1: Shepard is too fat to sprint, and when he does its only for a second Mass Effect 2: Most of the choices you made in the first game really only culminated in spam in the second Borderlands: Repetitive and shallow, they could have flushed out that world so much. And the story...

I does, and it can learn a move that swaps its attack and defense stat. I never had the patience to train it, but if you stick with it they thing can be a tank with a steamroller duct taped to the front.

I'm currently training up a whirlipede. I don't know if those are popular at all, I highly doubt it, but I love the little guy. I know that when I was younger playing Yellow I'd train up certain Pokemon just because I liked the look, though none come to mind at the moment.

Well being able to customize your character in TF2 has proved very popular, and that is also an FPS. People like to look unique and cool even if they can't see it themselves. I think its great to provide customization like that. It allows you to create your own character with your own style...

Methinks he died of Kepral's Syndrome by now. Which is a damned shame, Thane is one of my all time favorites, right up there with Wrex. I just want to have good 'ol Wrex back in my squad. Having him in ME2 would have made that game 10x better. And yeah, I killed Ashley both times I played...
