    Games that you hate but everyone else seems to ape-shit about it?

    Thanks for the words re: the not-so-secret Fulton system. I'm slightly confused here. Why can't I judge the entire franchise storyline? I was intrigued enough by the Phantom Pain and the positive hype to read and watch multiple summaries of the entire Metal Gear Solid plot to this point...

    Metal Gear Solid. I don't have much experience playing it, but things like the box throw me off: I don't care if it's a staple -- the hide in the box thing is just plain stupid. I also think the whole Fulton system is dumb. MGS is supposedly one of the best stealth game series ever made, and...

    Shadowrun Hong Kong Kickstarter Launched

    Then don't fund it. I'm not a game developer, but I do know that time is money. How much time? No idea, but Harebrained Studios has earned my trust based on their previous games, so I did fund it. Why are you so angry about it? Edit: And I funded it at a level I thought I would pay for it...

    Shadowrun Hong Kong Kickstarter Launched

    No reviews of current games released on last gen consoles?

    I would be interested to know how "gimped" the Nemesis system in Shadows of Mordor is on last-gen. I have seen some pretty bad graphics in some footage, but to some degree that is expected. The Nemesis system itself is pretty critical to the game itself, and the developers admitted that it...

    why does Borderlands 2 punish solo players?

    Don't confuse opinion or bad conventional wisdom for actual truth. Zero is not overmatched in UVHM, with some decent gear. The Pimpernel sniper rifle is the most damaging gun in the game if you know how to use it, (more effective at range than the Harold) and is a blue quest reward. Keeping your...

    why does Borderlands 2 punish solo players?

    Level 72 Zero and a level 56 Maya, 550+ hours played, every single one solo. And this is the first FPS game I've really played. You're in the first Playthrough (Normal mode) -- and that is easy mode. I recommend you give some more specifics about your character and gear you have, to get some...

    [Tabletop] History Check - Your first table-top role-playing game

    Twilight 2000. Edit: Oh, yeah... the James Bond RPG. The "Q Manual" was the coolest thing ever.
