    SimCity Expansion Could Add Offline Mode

    I actually bought and liked SimCity, even with it's flaws it's still a good game, and if it wasn't for the DRM controversy, lots of people would notice the same. If they'd implement such things, SC would go from good, to amazing. Can't wait.

    Jimquisition: Xbox One out of Ten

    Seriously, I don't get all the Xbox One hate. It's a console, no worse or better than PS4. Sony has f***ed their customers multiple times throught the PS3's lifetime, enforcing restrictive DRMs, suing people for just tinkering with the device, introducing gimmicky controllers that only copied...

    Poll: Helm's Deep battle, minus the bomb

    AFAIK, IRL trebuchets were (contrary to popular belief, as is often the case with things that look cool) not that good of a weapon. In theory, yes, they could be accurate and they could propel big projectiles over large distances. However, probably because of technical limitations, those things...

    Sony Launches World's Fastest Personal Internet in Japan

    It's one of the faster connections you can get in Poland. As a bonus, it keeps breaking every few months, it's not the speed I paid for (it should be 20Mbs, but the local infrastructure cannot support more than that), it works like sh** when it gets over 15 degrees Celsius (randomly breaks and...

    Does Half Life 2 Hold up?

    Hell I played it for the first time in, I think, 2011 or 2010, and up to this day I believe it to be one of the genre's finest.

    Does that mean I will finally be able to stare at cleavages on Google Earth?

    Mass Effect being blamed for Connecticut shooting.

    I've got a question. Why is the general public FULL OF IDIOTS? I mean, where do they live, most of the people I know have at least a bit of common sense and conscious thinking ... Oh, and there's something I don't get: how can you get so manipulated by media and believe them entirely? I...

    Would you date a former cheater?

    Well, I did, and it did not work out well for me. And I almost unknowingly started dating another one recently, but thankfully I managed to see through her words, and noticed who she really was before it got serious. They rarely truly change, so... theriddlen top tip - AVOID EDIT: On a...

    QUICK I need to choose one of these games!

    I've got one day to choose one of these ultra-classic games (for free) and mind mind is fucked. HELP Need opinions, biases, anything that could help me decide. are games that I remember fondly, but I were too young at that time to be really able to play or understand what was going on...

    Oh, but the encryption is not for users, it's there to clear the host of any legal responsibility over the files.

    Can you defend yourself?

    One, no problem, straight up fight. Two, knock one out with a quick shot and fight the second one. Three, you start needing a lot of luck to pull that off. If the day is right and they aren't all bigger than you, doable - barely. Four, you're an idiot to start a fight with that many guys...

    15 year old girl kills herself after persistent bullying

    I see mistakes everywhere, from parenting all the way to the way the teachers had reacted to the situation. Everything that happened could and should have been easily avoided, with just a bit of caring, love, and intelligent approach. Hell, I could personally help if I was there... And yes...

    Poll: Cats or Dogs

    I was expecting a poll. I am disappoint. Also, cats, because the idea of having a scaled-down lion is just awesome.

    Nice touch that the title's abbreviation is SOB.

    Automation - ever wanted to make your own growling V8?

    While browsing Steam Greenlight, I bumped into something called Automation. As a bit of a car person, I instantly went to their site, downloaded the Engine Designer demo... and lost myself for hours. I'm actually surprised that nobody made something like that earlier! Here's a trailer for the...
