    On the morality of copyright.

    That is correct, which is why I only use that line of thinking in a general sense, and apply it to behaviors like pirating games, rather than a simple action like turning left. There are many scenarios in which an action which is generally thought of as immoral can be considered moral or...

    On the morality of copyright.

    I tend to think of what's moral or not in the general sense of "If everyone acted this way how would it affect me." So if everyone pirated software and there was nobody left to pay the developers they couldn't and wouldn't make games, or at least not large budget games. Now I don't mind many...

    Fallout: Not Like a Real-Life Nuclear Holocaust

    My hopes for a Fallout style post-apocalyptic world died of radiation poisoning after watching Threads [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090163/]. Now I have nothing to look forward to in the event of a global nuclear war. Phooey!

    "Hardcore games" vs. Social games.

    This [http://www.cracked.com/article_18461_5-creepy-ways-video-games-are-trying-to-get-you-addicted.html] combined with how easy to get into they are (I'm sure a large proportion of Farmville players are elderly), how they are integrated into heavily used websites like Facebook (Checking on your...

    Poll: Real men change diapers!

    A real man has male sex organs; A macho douche-pit will not change a diaper because he considers it to be the wife's duty.

    Do you hate the game or the people who play it?

    I'm too busy enjoying the games I like to hate other games or the people who play them. I don't always play online, but when I do, I prefer Dos Equis -er I mean I don't converse with other people, mute them, and/or sing badly into my microphone to annoy them into submission. On the other...

    Experimental Game Controller Can Scald or Freeze

    First, I'm sorry if I came off a little rude. Just my sense of humor getting the better of me. Second, I agree that motion controls are immersion breaking, but this and vibration are nothing like motion controls. Motion control is an input method, whereas vibration and temperature are...

    Experimental Game Controller Can Scald or Freeze

    Yes, because guns don't shake at all when you're firing them. What were they thinking. And now they're adding heating? That's another thing guns totally don't do.

    Experimental Game Controller Can Scald or Freeze

    This would be great, even just for keeping your controller nice and frosty while you game. I hate having to wipe palm sweat off controllers. Also, along with standard vibration the heating would make for a relaxing massage. ;) Edit: Just thought of a neato use for it: What if you're...

    games that where made into movies that kinda dident suck?

    I remember liking "Final Fantasy: Spirits within" when I saw it, but that movie had nothing to do with Final Fantasy whatsoever. It had the best cast I've seen for any game movie so far. Steve Buscemi alone can make anything awesome. Also, Mortal Kombat. It was campy enough to be good, and...

    Just to punish you.

    Sucker Punch Kills InFamous 2's New Cole

    This 'new' Cole sure sounds like a pansy if it only took one sucker punch to kill him.

    Poll: Does Fansevice bug you?

    It depresses me deeply. Every time I see blatant fan service I am reminded of those poor japanese men and their anime pillow things, and it makes me feel really sad. They're so pathetic, yet adorable; I'd almost feel like hugging them if it weren't for the fact that it would most likely make...

    Nemesis

    Look around where you're sitting and spot whatever annoys you the most. For example, my nemesis is the sun, since that celestial bastard is shining on my monitor at the moment, corrupting my forum going experience with its cosmic douchebaggery. Just looking at that fucking smug ass-hatted...
