    Escape to the Movies: X-Men: First Class

    I liked the movie, but I was irritated a bit at how the SR-71 Blackbird (actually probably technically an A-12, based on the timeline) they were flying around in could turn on a dime and HOVER. This is the plane that set the manned aircraft speed record, it doesn't hover! In fact it used a...

    Poll: Which Game/s Are You Shelling out For This Month?

    None of these, most likely. All I'll end up buying are games from the Steam sale at the end of the month.

    Black Swan Composer Takes Over Mass Effect 3

    I'm excited, personally. I love Mansell's movie scores and I think he'll add a lot to the Mass Effect series.

    Enter to Win a Digital Copy of Mount & Blade: Warband

    Fantastic game, I'd recommend that everyone enter. If you do pick it up, make sure to visit the Taleworlds forum and have a look at some of the awesome mods for both singleplayer and multiplayer.

    Morrowind 2011 Brings New Life to an Old Classic

    This is great! Morrowind is among my top 3 favorite games, I played it on the old Xbox so much back in the day. I'd bought the GOTY on PC over the summer, and worked on installing a bunch of the mods in this package, but must've installed one mod too many because the game started crashing and...

    The first computer game you ever played?

    The original Red Baron on DOS. I was around three years old.

    No Halo: Reach Co-op for 4GB 360 Slim Owners

    This was the same thing with Halo 3, at least for the LAN system link co-op. I had a 360 without an HDD, my friend had one with one, and it gave me that error every time we tried to play system link co-op. Eventually I just went and bought one...

    Rumor: PC Features Cut From Dragon Age 2

    Should this be true, I will be very disappointed in BioWare. I enjoy using the DA:O toolset and find it allows me to do almost anything I want with the game. I'd hoped they'd continue improving it for new releases of DA until they added persistent world multiplayer like in Neverwinter Nights...

    Pre-Order Fable 3, Receive a Person

    This is one pre-order bonus that I might actually go for. Sounds really cool.

    Dragon Age: Origins Reigns Supreme as Best-Selling BioWare Game.

    That's surprising, but does make sense. I'm glad to hear it though, since DA is my favorite BioWare franchise with the possible exception of KOTOR.

    Reggie Fils-Aime Leaks 3DS Release Date

    I had a chance to try the 3DS out at E3. Well, by "try out" I mean watch the small 3D video they let you see on the device. Honestly I wasn't super impressed. If anything it just seemed like the kind of thing that would make you sick looking at it for very long. If I want 3D, I think a movie...

    Liveblog: Microsoft E3 2010 Media Briefing

    That's crazy that they came out with the new 360 "slim" and it's actually being shipped today.

    Fallout 3 to The Elder Scrolls V.

    I really think the dialog driven branching conversations they had in FO3 should be transplanted into TES:V. That was a lot more immersive than the topic-driven conversation that had in the old Elder Scrolls games. It also made for more meaningful plot choices than in Oblivion.

    Freelancer (weapons grinding)

    Yeah try Ouray Base in Colorado for Xenos. You go near it for one of the storyline missions in the second chapter, I believe. The Xenos also have a base in one of the IWs, and I think it's one of the two between Kusari and Liberty. I don't think there are many Outcasts actually in...
