    Depiction of Muhammad?

    I told you, that was the gist of it. And I'm not making shit up, it was what I heard. I was around ten, I'll admit, but I remember the words clear as day. The desks with articles, the windows out to the green yard. The fat guy being stupid. I don't remember if it was on TV2 or DR though. I...

    Depiction of Muhammad?

    Mmyes because we all live in deserts and are uncultured, uncivilized brutes with little to no regard for others' rights and opinions. I'm so terribly sorry that we apparently beat eachother silly over having meaningful conversation that isn't authorized by the law. I had no idea that we were...

    The Boss Deserved Better

    Because Halo did define gaming for a good while. It still does. It's not about which character was best, but which one was most influential. If you say Halo had no influence, you're wrong. True, Master Chief isn't an interesting character in the games, but come on. Credit where it's due...

    LoadingReadyRun: It's Magic

    You could try MtG: Online. It's actually pretty fun. I've made a WGR beatdown deck from the starting pack, and there's a bunch of other cards you get once you activate your account. It costs 10$ I think, and you can pretty much buy everything you can buy IRL there. Check it out if you can't find...

    LoadingReadyRun: It's Magic

    I got a Magic deck for my birthday last month. I've spent so goddamned much already now... Awesome episode, easily my favourite! Many game stores have free promotional packs with about 40 cards of each color. They actually have some pretty neat cards, and you can definitely build around the...

    Mine all Minecraft

    I haven't played it yet, but it seems appealing. Saying that it's unique doesn't seem quite right though. Dwarf Fortress allows you to do a lot of the same (not all of it, but Dwarf Fortress is a whole other genre). Still, it's not exactly a common thing to see. I think I'll pick it up some day...

    Zero Punctuation: Halo: Reach

    You're quite right. I think I should've made it clear that I wasn't counting in the price. Then again, if you're buying a primarily multiplayer game you should know what you're paying for: a multiplayer experience :) With Halo, you could argue that campaign mode is just an extra feature. Many...

    Escapist News Network: Sony's Crazy Marketing

    Great. Thanks. My parents thought I was doing homework and the punchline about Deer Hunter from Mr. Stark made me laugh so loud they realized I was doing jack-all. Super as always, although it felt a bit short.

    Zero Punctuation: Halo: Reach

    Am I the only one who laughed my figurative arse off at the imp crashing in on a ghost saying: "Sup y'all niggas"? I liked Halo: Reach. Played it over at a pal's house and a 1v1v1 match can get pretty damned fun. The powers make it easier to kill good players (I actually won one game because...

    What bands do YOU think are overrated? (Don't flame, just state your awnser and move along)

    Blast, foiled again! :) I was just about to post the same. Every single artist and band in every single genre at any time in history has been overrated by fans. Speak to the right (or wrong) people, and you'll get a highly biased opinion of them. Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Black Sabbath...

    Which fictional organisation would you be a part of?

    I honestly don't know. There are so many awesome ones. The Grey Wardens, the Spectres, the Jedi Council, the Grey Knights, Uplink Corp., Task Force, the Psychonauts, the Brotherhood of Steel, the Assassins, the Argent Crusade, the Lanterns, the League of Evil (one of them HAS to be awesome), the...

    Microsoft Launches Jetpack-Equipped Spartans Alongside Halo: Reach

    A jetpack. I repeat people: A motherfucking bonafide jetpack. That guy was in a Spartan suit and fucking flying. That could not be more jaw-droppingly, mindfuckingly awesome if the guy was on fire and was battling Cthulhu. I'm not going to buy Halo: Reach, most likely. But I have to...

    Assassin's Creed Brotherhood Combat Trailer Ups Its Stab Quota

    I really have to say, I just couldn't stop laughing at that trailer. While the game itself looks decent, the composition and music is just so bloody camp that it's unintentionally hilarious. I am totally going to buy AC2 and AC: Brotherhood though. I loved Ass. Creed one and the only thing...

    Austria Bans Anti-Mosque Game

    This is just flat-out stupid. It shouldn't be banned. I say that as a muslim. I'm not offended by some radically retarded anti-Islam group making a flash game with barely any offensive imagery (it's just opposed to muslims and mosques. Difference being that it doesn't insult, but rather...

    Muslim Should Not Equal Villain

    Hoo boy. Are you ever so annoying. A majority of muslims don't really buy that translation because it doesn't make sense. Readings of the Quran are often done with a singing voice. So what, now the word of God is going to send us straight to hell? The thing is, hadiths are never, ever able...
