Since when did 2D equate to bad graphics? I think games like Bastion and Chrono Trigger have much more appealing graphics than, say, Call of Duty or Madden.

I used to be into it, but frankly, it got a bit boring. And there are other problems with it... For one, they seem to have no real interest in balancing the game for anything other than the classic 5v5 mode. They recently released a new mode, Dominion, to much hype, but they still refuse for...

Unfortunately for you, a lot of the praise for Borderlands stemmed from the fact that its gameplay was pretty unlike anything that had been made so far. There aren't really any games quite like it. Fallout 3 is similar in that it's a first-person RPG with guns, but the two play extremely...

And this is why DotA 2 is going to be much, much better. Valve actually supports their games after release, instead of promising new features that never come. See also: Team Fortress 2.

If this means that they're expanding their streaming service, I'm all for it. But seriously, if they continue to keep so much of the quality content exclusively on DVD, you can count me out. Netflix streaming is useful for TV shows, but movies are just hard-to-find on there.

Thank you very much for this post. I'm sick of people whining about their free content. Seriously, is it that much of an inconvenience that you have to watch a 30-second ad before watching one of the best 7-minute videos on the Internet for free?

Sooo, you make one point about parts of games being held back as DLC, and then conclude from that that the whole industry needs to die? I can't say I follow. Personally, I love the current DLC trend. If I don't want to pay the total price for the game + the DLC, I won't buy the game. For...

Thanks for making this site so incredible! Almost all of my favorite moments on the Internet in the last few years took place on this site. Thanks for fostering an environment for intelligent video game discussion! You'll be greatly missed. Good luck in your new ventures!

Er, sorry, but I just don't think this is that bad. It seems to me like he was referring specifically to feminists, not women in general. Are we really at the point where insulting a political movement is equivalent to misogyny?

Eeeeeeh, from what I understand, they're not to be taken lightly. You can reduce the risk of getting them, but never completely. Just because your friends haven't gotten them yet doesn't mean that they won't at some point.

Moral of the story: Dude is probably bisexual and doesn't want to admit it. I do think that after enough "therapy" and having enough ideas drilled into your head, the attraction to the same sex could probably be partially eliminated or at least masked. But, it's pointless since it's not like...

I don't quite get what everyone is blasting the OP for... Yes, in my experience, many gay people do have a different "accent", if you will. It's usually a lisp or just an overtly feminine tone, but it's still (usually) very easy for me to identify if someone's gay just by listening to them...

I'm just waiting until they release Total War: Future. Then I'll be set.

Just FYI, Portal 2 is even easier than Portal 1. You might be disappointed in the second one. I do recommend playing the Advanced Maps in Portal 1, though; they're a nice challenge. But it was mainly the writing and comedy that people loved. Plus, the portal gun was a unique puzzle-solving...

Well, there go the next 3 hours of my life... You might want to link this thread (or the LRR website) at the bottom of an Unskippable or LRR video (possibly make an announcement about it at the end of the video). It seems like this thread kind of got lost in the forums, and I'd hate to see...
