    Escape to the Movies: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II

    Was I the Only one offended by the poor quality of the fan-service scene at the end? I mean i understand it wasn't written that well to begin with, but honestly, dressing the characters in old person clothes and casting midget children, letting the guys grow out stubble? Thats just not good enough.

    Shit That I Don't Get: The Direction Up

    I guess you could say that before, when the earth was considered flat, the direction up was much like the direction north, an absolute. Now it's become like the direction left. That is pretty interesting.

    302: Who Cares About Mario?

    I recently got around to buying a DS, purely because I wanted to play pokemon. In the past the main games i've had on handhelds have been pokemon games, and i imagine in the future thats about all i'll get them for. To me thats about all thats worth playing. As for the Wii, i got pretty heavily...

    "Feeding Kids Meat is Child Abuse"

    Corporations don't deserve freedom of speech, even if the individuals do. This is a stupid ad from a stupid activist group. They've taken it too far, and they're voicing opinions which are completely unjustified. Vegetarian food can cause obesity too, you know.

    People who are universally liked.

    I know people who hate Smashing Pumpkins for what they've become. They started doing like 20 minute guitar or drum solos in the middle of their sets, and thats just arrogant.

    Question of the Day, January 26, 2011

    I don't want to directly make them but i want to have some part in their development, through funding. My plan is to work in unrelated areas and and run businesses. If i have a lot of extra money at some point, a game company would definitely be part of that.

    Escapist News Network: Inside the Newsroom

    I would love to see this as a spinoff series, where you have normal ENN, and then one where you just make several funny suggestions in a row for each one like you did here

    Most skillful sport?

    I was thinking football when i opened this but after reading a bit, i would say ice hockey. It's like football on ice at a faster pace.

    Question of the Day, January 6, 2011

    A sequel should be a post-production idea. They should make the game, then look back at how it did, and decide "people liked that, and theres more we can do with it, lets make another" currently, the thought process is more "this is part one of a 3 part series, so leave it open so we can milk...

    Question of the Day, December 18, 2010

    It doesn't so much hurt them, as it does ruin other players experiences. It ruins the economy of the game too.

    Why does everybody hate 3D?

    It's gimmocky and childish, and currently adds very little to the real experience. Plus i hate the glasses. 3D sports i can understand. Theres potential for a lot of development and gives the viewers a better perspective to watch it.

    Poll: Are scholarships designated for African-Americans racist?

    The point of difference is that they are a minority, and the grants are expected to improve the minorities culture. Same thing happens here in New Zealand. We have scholarships for Maori (though their scholarships come from their tribes so it's sort of fair enough) and Pacific Islanders, they...

    Question of the Day, November 29, 2010

    Looking at steam as a good base to work off, i can see it happening, but there are issues such as that you cant lend a digital copy of a game to a friend. If they had a lending function on the future system where you could give the right to play it to another account, and yours is disabled, that...
