    Indie Dev Threatens to Kill Gabe Newell, Valve Pulls His Game From Steam

    As much as this guy deserves it, not only did he screw himself over, he screwed over his artist, who had absolutely nothing to do with the incident, and essentially had is life ruined from this one stupid mistake of his co-worker. Not to mention that he had every right to be angry with the false...

    Poll: Should Steam implement a "GamerScore" system for achievements?

    I don't exactly agree that achievements ruin immersion. If players are focused on a game purely for the achievements, they are choosing to harm their experience. I usually go for achievements on subsequent playthroughs, for the longest time I hadn't had the money to purchase that many games, so...

    Poll: Should Steam implement a "GamerScore" system for achievements?

    Reached level 10 a while back, never bothered with the whole showcase thing, didn't know about that, thanks for the heads up!

    Poll: Should Steam implement a "GamerScore" system for achievements?

    So not too long ago I abandoned console gaming for the PC prior to the Xbone and PS4 launch and I have to admit, I was kind of an achievement whore back when I primarily played on the 360. I loved the feeling of account-wide progression that continued with every game I completed. Now that I more...

    Sony to Dive Into Family Games If Nintendo Keeps Declining

    Oddly enough, I'm fine with sony making more family oriented games, I'm tired of all the grit from all the "mature" games that keep coming. I'm hoping this means we get more games like Oddworld, Crash, and Spyro. I'm tired of the fact that almost all of the colorful and character based games...

    Poll: Will you buy the WiiU when the new Super Smash Brothers comes out?

    I keep hearing from gaming news sites that SSB will be the console seller of the WiiU, and will be the one game to save the console from it's rut. I personally will not buy a Wii U for the next smash bros game (and this is coming from someone who got 100% in everything in Brawl). For me, the...

    GTA Online Launches October 1 at 7AM ET

    Same here, no matter what I changed, my character kept looking hispanic (not that there is anything wrong with that, it's just not what I wanted my character to look like). I just kept hitting random for 10 minutes straight until I got a character that looked kinda like how I wanted him to look...

    GTA Online Launches October 1 at 7AM ET

    I can't get in a game after the intro cut scene, even in solo mode. I guess I should have seen this coming given that millions upon millions of people are all trying to get on at once, the servers are probably on fire right now! At least I was able to make my character...in what I find possibly...

    What defines a "good" game?

    Gaming arguments on the internet often times come down to "this game is crap" or "this game is good, I don't care what haters think". Seeing these arguments made me think to myself, what makes a game good? Is it the story? The controls? The addictive gameplay? I started to think why I enjoyed...

    How much would people pay to get an early copy of GTA V

    When it comes to game franchises that have an absolutely ridiculously huge following like GTA, people would pay top dollar. If I were to guess, I'd probably say around $50,000, but even then, I don't know, there are some crazy people in the world with a ton of expendable cash, so probably more.

    Zero Punctuation: Saints Row 4

    I disagree, if anything, games like Saints Row 4 prove that we need more games that don't take themselves too seriously. After playing Bioshock: Infinite, The Last of Us, Tomb Raider, then Far Cry 3 all in succession, I needed a game like Saints Row 4. Gaming today tries waaaaaay too hard to be...

    Games you love but yet suck at.

    The original Xcom, I've probably started about 10-15 new games, and every single time I fail miserably, I keep trying, but damn it's near impossible (love the atmosphere and the feeling of dread though, but the RNG just hates me)

    Games You'd Like To Be Made?

    A fallout 1/2-style Rogue-like game where you explore a randomly generated post-nuclear wasteland as you gather a party, fight raiders, upgrade and purchase equipment, and eventually make it to the end. (essentially Post Apocalyptic FLT, with slightly more RPG)
