    Play Zero Punctuation's Hatfall, Now Live!

    Honestly, for $2.00 it's a pretty damn good piece of work. I can see myself killing some dull hours trying not to get impaled by telephone poles.

    Amazon Listing Reveals 1TB Xbox One

    Well... hardware improvements. That's always nice to hear about, I suppose. All we need to hope is that there are devs that take advantage of this tech and try to optimize the games. ... You know, maybe they could start with a consistent 60 fps on all of their games from now on.

    The Fallout

    Hm, I do have to admit that, in the hype for a possible Fallout 4 release, I kinda forgot about the paid mods thing. Then again, the whole thing was a terrible screwup and I basically just forgot about the whole thing after Valve pulled the plug on it. Hopefully Bethesda and Valve got the...

    YouTube Overturned Konami's Copyright Claim Against Critical Video

    Ignoring the fact that a YouTube copyright strike was taken down by YouTube itself (which is a welcome change from YouTube's normal trends), Konami's recent actions have been... baffling, as of late. As someone mentioned, it could be because the CEOs above might predict a collapse in the...

    Gabe Newell Speaks on The Whole Paid Skyrim Mods Debacle

    Honestly, I don't see the whole "paid mods" system working unless Valve is the only one distributing mods, for the sheer fact that I can't imagine there being any mods that are actually worth paying for if there are alternate mods available on another site, free of charge. I mean, there are...

    Google Planning New Ad-Free YouTube Subscription Service

    So what YouTube is pitching is an ability to turn off ads for a certain fee. I guess we have to give them some props for not making it an annual or a monthly fee? However, if you run Adblock like 90% of the Internet, I can't imagine anyone being interested in this. For the other 10% (like...

    Ammunition

    In the Internet, the value of the art, nor the feelings of the artist, nor the nature of the controversy never really matters. It's just winning an argument with the one guy that you randomly decided to pick a fight with.

    What if League of Legends Was Released in The 90s?

    As a huge League fan, I approve.

    Forget Realism, We Need Truth

    While I agree that it would be nice if a lot more military shooters stopped with the pandering and glorifying military fantasies... I don't think that taking the exact 180 and making all of them deep, introspective views on war is necessarily the correct approach. Not only because we can't...

    5 Ways to Fix The Order: 1886

    That ending sounds just very disappointing. I'd pick it up at $40, but I don't even have a PS4 yet and, from the sounds of one of the games I was kinda hyped for, I might put it off a bit longer.

    Rayman Leaked as Super Smash Bros. 4 DLC Character? - Update: Fake

    Rayman would be fun to have, but adding too many third party characters would, I dunno, just seem a bit silly.

    On the PC Master Race and the Language Police

    You could say that this article was his thoughts on GamerGate, namely that he doesn't have any thoughts that he wants to make public, or that he overall doesn't give a damn. He's a game journalist, and his job is to cover games. Say what you want about Thief being emotionally biased instead of...

    A Note From Your Friendly Neighborhood Editor in Chief

    As much as I love the Escapist and I do hope that the new Editor-in-Chief does great at his job (or at least lives longer than his contemporaries), I do share some of the... concerns of everyone else. Optimism is fine and everything, but people like Yahtzee are known for being blunt...

    EB Games Australia is Pulling The Elder Scrolls Online From Store Shelves

    Thanks again, and sorry for being too lazy to use Google. :D

    EB Games Australia is Pulling The Elder Scrolls Online From Store Shelves

    Source? Not because I doubt you, but because I'm admittedly a lazy bastard and because I'd like to read this for myself.
