    Is it worth getting The Witcher 1 and 2?

    If you can afford them I'd get them both. The overarching story is kind of important to understanding Geralt's character if nothing else. That said, Witcher 2 was pretty good at easing people into the world and lore if you hadn't played the first; I can't imagine they won't do the same with the...

    So it seems Hotline Miami 2 has rape in it...

    I have the first game because it was part of the most recent humble bundle. Haven't played it and now I don't even want to. Even with it being framed as "in a movie - lol, psych!" it's pretty tasteless. Game devs are free to do what they like, of course. And I'm free to be disgusted and not...

    Jimquisition: Xbox One No DRM Emergency Special!

    It's Remedy's "Quantum Break." The big gimmick with it is it ties into a new TV show, and supposedly "how you play the game impacts the show, and the show informs how you play the game." It looks like an interesting experiment. It's a XBone exclusive, due out in 2014, so that's why Jim had it...

    Jimquisition: Xbox One No DRM Emergency Special!

    A nuanced response to joyous news, Mr. Sterling. That you wrote, shot, and uploaded it this quickly, and that it lived up to your usual standard in spite of all that, deserves kudos as well. As for the DRM reversal, I'm still angry at MS. Maybe that will change. If I do break down somewhere...

    The Lego Movie (No joke!)

    It's you. Movies have /always/ banked on the nostalgia factor. You just weren't old enough to be the target of it until now :D OT: From the video it looks like it could be fun. Not something I'd see in a theater (but given how few movies I'd go to a theater to watch that's not saying much.)

    Poll: If You Could Switch Your Sex/Gender...

    Nah. I think people are just being honest about what they'd be curious about. I mean, one of the biggest draws of changing one's gender for a week /has/ to be experiencing how the 'other half' has sex. The fact that they envision doing it with other women just tells you that they're straight...

    What Do You Usually Make Your RPG Characters Look Like?

    First playthrough I'm impatient and want to get on with the game. Usually I'll go with one of the male presets, jiggle a few sliders just to change it up a bit. I'll almost always pick a much darker skin tone than my own, since most RPGs have characters that are outdoors far more often than I am...

    Poll: If You Could Switch Your Sex/Gender...

    Interesting thread topic and discussion. Yes, because it's a new experience, and why not? A new perspective never hurts. Plus women have /way/ more clothing choices. The pill to change back, yeah, that's a definite. I enjoy being who I am.

    Have you ever had a gay (same sex) experience?

    OP: It might help if you talked a bit more about what you're looking for from this thread. What you actually want people to talk about. Are you just generally curious as to how many gamers might be gay/bi or have had a gay experience? Are you looking for support from people who are in the...

    Why doesnt all English people speak like Charles Dance?

    HAHAHHA . . .er. . . sorry, you're serious, aren't you? While there's a big difference between the GA and TX accent, for example, (no Texan ever told me "why, y'all's just as cute as a pig in muuud,") /everyone/ thinks they sound 'normal'. As someone who grew up in MA (I once actually parked...

    An Honest Question about Sharing

    I'm indifferent to sharing. Will never use it myself, but if other folks enjoy it, great for them. I am on the fakebook, but I won't spam my few friends with game achievements. My main worry is that I'll accidentally hit the button and it will pull up some interface that takes me totally out...

    What Would Happen If Your Two Favorite Games Merged?

    With every trailer and press release it looks more and more like that's their goal. This is either going to be my favorite game ever made or a spectacular, universe shattering failure.

    Give Nintnendo a chance!

    I won't buy a console for games that might exist some day. Nintendo has ~30 games out for the Wii U. Of those thirty-odd games, several are available for me to play on other platforms. Once Bayonetta 2 is out I'll look at their line-up again and see if there are enough actual games that I want...

    Are you freakin' kidding me?

    I'm starting to wonder what the point of beating this particular dead horse is. Microsoft apologized. The woman involved said it was fine. I sincerely doubt the man involved will ever make another public joke for the rest of his life. The media lambasted it everywhere from HuffPost to Jezebel to...

    What Would Happen If Your Two Favorite Games Merged?

    Hard to pick two favorite games. If I went with "number of hours with them running on my computer" I'd wind up with the bastard lovechild of Neverwinter Nights and Saint's Row The Third. So, a DnD Toolset that makes for some great online role playing with dildo bats, cool cars, silly...
