    Poll: Favorite MGS 'Snake'?

    That video has got to be the funniest fucking thing I have seen in a long time. Thank you.

    Your favorite web series

    I've seen a few episodes of Tales from the Table. I got a few goods laughs out of it, but I just never kept up with it. I may go and catch up the series now that I'm back on The Escapist regularly. As for internet shows probably Bob's Boneyard (bobsboneyard.com). There was an old radio talk...

    Poll: Favorite MGS 'Snake'?

    I'm going to have to say Solid solely for the fact that MGS4 showed a whole new side of him. A close second is Big Boss simply for the originality of the character, and the idea of clones keep him high in my mind. Even still, seeing Solid Snake go from a nomadic cynical asshole into a...

    Your favorite web series

    Extra Credits, Zero Punctuation, and Unskippable for The Escapist. Off site I would have to mention the Giant Bombcast (so hilariously funny if you like talk shows) on GiantBomb. I was really into the Star Power Podcast on ScoreHero back in my Guitar Hero days. So many good laughs.

    Games you wanna see remade in HD, because they're awesomenessesses

    Since Konami are going as far as to touch up the MGS series, I don't see any harm in upscaling the Zone of the Enders series as well. The controls would feel fabulous on a Dual Shock 3.

    Speaking to a large audience

    Basically what all the others have said, but I would stress the preparation bit. I found myself last semester getting up to make certain speeches and I found that when I actually prepared for them (rather than covered them Whose line style) I found the experience to be much less stressful.

    PS3 is back!!!!

    At the end, when he mentioned the "Welcome Back" plan, he doesn't confirm what will be a part of it. What's up with that? Didn't Sony already promise free content through PlayStation Plus?

    How easy is it to become a PC gamer?

    You more than likely have one of the Inspiron Dell models, which are common amongst non-gaming consumers. However, I would like to point out that MY Dell Inspiron is a gaming power house because of just a couple of hardware upgrades and some creative thinking. Typically, to have a reliable...

    Friday the 13th, have any bad luck today?

    Friday the 13th? Well the day just started so I guess I'm still in luck so far, but we'll see how it goes. Now, if this was yesterday, I could name a bunch of bad-lucks for ya. I'm not really stressing it since: a) the semester is over and I am free to game all day with no pants involved...

    Any board game fans out there?

    Back in my youth, I used to play assloads of Stratego with one of my cousins. Based on where I live seems like I'm the only one who's ever heard of/played the game, so here's a description (from Wikipedia respectively): Stratego is a board game featuring a 10 × 10 square board and two...

    Console Wars, has it gone a bit too far?

    "I'm sorry, I thought this was AMERICA!" That video had me in tears, hilarious! The console wars is getting pretty insane if I do say so myself. I think it's alright to be passionate about your favorite consoles, games, etc., but it's another thing to completely bash people about their...

    The on-screen keyboard is a godsend.

    I've actually just settled in with a free-to-play MMO called Solstice Reborn. It's not very keyboard dependent, so it works out great.

    The on-screen keyboard is a godsend.

    Well, I've been playing Chrono Trigger with the OSK all morning. I've taken a fancy to it already. I even made the game window the same width as the keyboard, so it looks and feels as though it's implemented. What's more, it's very responsive and allows me to play and old game in a fun, new way...

    The on-screen keyboard is a godsend.

    I agree, the lack of etiquette on the interwebs really sucks for the most part. I really love the abundance of intelligence that floats around The Escapist, though :). And alright, I'll be sure to share my feedback. It's an RTS, right? I haven't played one in ages.

    The on-screen keyboard is a godsend.

    Funny you should mention Baldur's Gate, a buddy of mine let me borrow an old copy of his recently. I haven't played it yet, but I've heard many good things. And right now, I could use a good game with total mouse control. Oh and might I add, it's nice to meet some people online with a little...
