    id Software Praises "Always On" in Diablo 3

    Oh, really? Well, f**k you too, Willits. I can't believe this industry has degenerated so low that it is considered acceptable to try and force customers into something they don't want. How about trying to adapt to the desires of your customers? Did you ever think of that as an acceptable...

    Take-Two: Duke Nukem Forever Was Profitable

    The fact that this game was profitable for Take-Two means very little in the grand scheme of things. Duke Nukem Forever has still done irrecoverable damage to the brand and any future games that try to cash in on it will be disastrous flops. From now on, you can always count on Duke.....being...

    Possibly the Greatest October/November ever? Your thoughts

    "Greatest ever months of releases"? No offence, but I can think of far better months of releases than those two. Having said that, I am very curious how Battlefield 3 and Skyrim will turn out. Not much else piques my interest, though.

    The protagonist of the last game you played wants too have sex with you.

    Fiona Gureden from Super Robot Wars Reversal: Why yes, Fiona, I always did think that you are really cute.

    Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012 Review

    Man, I hope they will eventually release a "Duels of the Planeswalker" retail compilation. I love electronic TCG games and we haven't seen a retail Magic: The Gathering release since the days of MicroProse. =/

    9/10 on my first try. I think I know my history quite well. =)

    Kinect Hack Aids Handicapped Grocery Shopping

    While it is hard for me to criticise a project which is meant to aid the disabled, I'm afraid I have to agree with... ...this. Plus, since stores already have trolleys made in large quantities, they could carry the cost of having such trolleys made (they wouldn't need a lot of them anyway)...

    How or why did your parents choose your name?

    WHAT?!?! Tom is a kickass name! You should keep it! Anyway, my name was decided by a random drawing. My entire family wrote down their suggestions on pieces of paper, threw all the pieces into a pot and then someone drew one of the pieces. The winning suggestion was from one of my brothers...

    Poll: Do you know more than one language?

    I speak Slovene and English fluently. I also speak Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian and Montenegrian semi-fluently (don't be impressed; since they are all based on the same dialect, knowing one language means you preety much know at least 90% of the other three languages). Frankly, unless the one...

    Peter Jackson Writes Legolas Into The Hobbit

    In terms of "changing" the original story, this is actually quite mild. As numerous others have mentioned before me, Legolas is the Prince of Mirkwood and some of the events in The Hobbit take place in Mirkwood. Plus, as far as I know, Tolkien never mentioned what Legolas was doing during this...

    TLDR is getting ridiculous

    Frankly, I am bothered by the fact that people use the term "TLDR" at all. Nobody cares if you read something or not, so why do you bother informing us about it? Infact, if you didn't read it, why even bother replying in the first place? Posting just to say "TLDR" adds no substance to a...

    Oblivion Fifth Anniversary Edition Coming in June

    Only in the US? Darn, that's a shame. I would have bought this in a heartbeat if it was available here in Europe. =(
