    Encumbrance sucks, so why is it still so common?

    Encumbrance systems are the only thing stopping me from pocketing everything that isn't nailed down in a game like Fallout or Skyrim. Do I need fifteen stacks of Pre-War Money, a pack of bubble gum, a pencil, three letter blocks, and a dozen subway tokens? Probably not. But I might... I...

    Poll: Games vs Movies

    Gun to my head, forced to choose, I'd go gaming. Not because I actually like it better, but because it consumes more time. If I pick up an action RPG like Path of Exile, Diablo, Titan Quest, etc. or really any MMORPG out there I can have my time occupied by the loot grind for a whole lot longer...

    World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth

    I was around for WoW's launch, suffered from a bad case of alt-itis and didn't hit max level until the night before TBC launched, joined my first raiding guild around the mid-point of TBC's lifespan, rose up in the guild ranks to become their go-to healer for pushing new content, and maintained...

    Poll: Games vs Movies

    Not gonna vote, because there's no option for liking both pretty equally. If anything though, these days, I'm probably more of a movie buff than a gamer. I'm at least genuinely excited for a bunch of upcoming movies. There's basically nothing on the horizon for games that have the same sort...

    May the 4th be with you! Your favorite star wars games?

    I actually haven't played very many of them. That said, I've liked the ones I've played... Rogue Squadron Rogue Squadron 2: Rogue Leader Episode 1: Battle For Naboo (the movie it's based on sucks, but hey, it's basically more Rogue Squadron) Dark Forces Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II Force...

    What is the easiest AAA game you've played since 2005?

    Easiest game I've played in a long time was definitely Destiny 2. It doesn't have difficulty modes, so the resulting balancing for the game is pretty easy to appeal to the most players. I played through the entire campaign with two friends, and we finished it in under 6 hours, never once...

    ScrewAttack's Top 10 Video Games that should be Movies. I got opinions about this.

    I'm one of the like... four?... people that actually like Half-Life a lot more than its sequel... so I immediately did actually think it'd be the first game. Frankly, the first game would be a lot easier to make a movie out of. Open the same way as the game, with our man Gordon riding on the...

    Is Spiderman: Homecoming even remotely good?

    I barely remember it, to be honest. Even leaving the theater, the only scene that really stuck in my mind was the one with Keaton in the car before the school dance. Everything else was just so... paint by numbers MCU. I still like the Marvel movies, but MCU Fatigue is definitely starting to...

    Poll: PEANUT BUTTER!!!

    I like it well enough. I'm not too particular about it, either. Sweetened, unsweetened, natural, full of additives, creamy, chunky, whatever. It's not a food I actively seek out, but having a bit of it on some toast every once in a while is nice. I'd probably also be branded as un-American...

    what is your fav and least fav FPS franchise of all time?

    I have a... conflicted stance toward those games. I love the world they exist in and the atmosphere, I like a lot of the game mechanics and ideas, but for some reason I just can't seem to get into the actual gameplay whenever I try to play them these days. I played the original STALKER and liked...

    What is it about Nintendo games that make people so angry?

    I never really played much of any of the Smash Bros. games, but you're right on the money with regard to Mario Party and Mario Kart. The RNG element just feels like crap - when you're the person negatively affected by it. You can be the more skilled player, do everything right, and still lose...

    What are you top 5 least fav games of all time?

    Heh... back when that game was new, I loved it. Played the hell out of it. Went back and played it with a roommate while I was at college back in 2008, and we really couldn't get into it. The framerate and controls are awful, and God help you if you ever so much as dunk a toe into a pool of...

    What are you top 5 least fav games of all time?

    It would be super easy to fill out this list with Steam Greenlight crap I've seen Jim Sterling play, so I'm going to restrict myself to just games I've actually played. 1. Deus Ex: Invisible War - No other game could have possibly made the #1 spot for me. To this day I still love the original...
