    Just because she isn?t saying no doesn?t mean she is saying yes

    Young retarded people shouldn't get drunk, and people shouldn't sleep with strangers. Honestly, how hard is that? The best way to bypass this entire issue is to build an actual, solid relationship with someone whom you can trust. The second best way to bypass this issue is to not get...

    Films that you regret watching

    Are you insane? Where's all this hate for ND coming from? It's still one of my favorite films. It's sweet, heartwarming, and hilarious. Also, comparing ND to Death of a Salesman is like comparing Legally Blonde to The Glass Menagerie: it's retarded. I only regret watching City of...

    Prosecutors Blame "Violent" World of Warcraft for Breivik's Shooting Spree

    So let me get this straight: you're a prosecutor, handed a home run case of a mass murderer, and THIS is the evidence you lay out? Give me a fucking break.

    Trailers: The Elder Scrolls Online - Teaser

    Well, that was patently terrible. TES: Online will be awful. I saw it happen with Final Fantasy, and it'll happen to TES. See ya, it's been fun.

    What's Your Golden Age of Gaming?

    It's funny, because this is the precise collection of games that turn me off, with the exception of Psychonauts, Deus Ex, and Chrono Trigger, of course. Those years were my personal dark age, to be blunt, with a few gems amidst a dearth of impenetrable gameplay.

    What's Your Golden Age of Gaming?

    Everyone has a different answer. Some people are PC-centric, while others look to their consoles. Whatever your system, what time span do you consider to be a golden age for gaming? I expect many answers, and many similar answers, but I don't think anyone is going to have the same opinion as...

    Zero Punctuation: Diablo 3

    If you don't like the genre, you won't like games in that genre. It seems like a fairly simple equation to me, but I guess people just don't understand. A lesson in Action-RPG tropes: -Randomized content -Character progression (hence the RPG bit) -Mass genocide (hence the action bit)...

    Jimquisition: The Best Looking Game of This Generation

    Games that try to look realistic age very poorly. Final Fantasy X looks relatively worse than Final Fantasy VII compared to today's standards. A stylized look (ala Diablo II, Brood War, Icewind Dale, The Witcher, etc.) will always look better to me than Halo or Call of Duty. Ten years from...

    Call of Duty: Black Ops II announcement trailer

    I don't post often, but I'd just like to say that this looks like the dumbest piece of tripe ever to come out of this franchise. Does anyone know what the term "Black Ops" actually means? Secrecy. Stealth. Subversion. BLOPS has NONE of those qualities. It's all the same shooty shooty...

    Re: Why Not "The Artist" For Best Picture?

    I just finished watching Movie Bob's "Big Picture" show about the Oscard Awards, and I have to say I'm quite puzzled about his hatred for The Artist. His own review was tepid enough, saying the movie was good but not fantastic, and that's understandable. Now, I haven't seen the movie myself...

    Funny? Messed up? Cruel, even? You decide.

    Yeah...can we just pause the thread to discuss someone openly admitting they're a pedophile?

    The Final Fantasy X HD remaster and why it makes sense.

    (Sorry for no poll, for some reason it didn't show up. I'll fix it in a second.) Okay, to clarify: the FFX remaster is using a filtered version of FFXIII's engine. Now what that actually means I'm not sure. Questions like: "Uhh, is Tidus' necklace actually going to move?" will remained...

    The Final Fantasy X HD remaster and why it makes sense.

    Eh, the animations have aged very poorly. For instance, compare LA Noire to FFX and you'll see what I mean. But that's unfair. I guess my point is: it's not so pretty anymore.

    The Final Fantasy X HD remaster and why it makes sense.

    (Let me preface this by saying that FFX is one of my absolute favorite games ever and, in my opinion, the best installment in the series) Did you hear the news? FFX is getting remastered! Que Youtube rants like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ng92_85S26M...

    The Stronghold Series

    An RTS series that I think is too often overlooked is the Stronghold series, by Firefly. Stronghold 3 is coming out in September, and this has resparked my enthusiasm for the main game: mapmaking. Every iteration has come with a subtly powerful editor (I can't speak for Legends, though)...
