OK, preface: totally impressed that someone from Techland actually took time to answer when I asked the question, and on a public forum even. Regardless of the sad fact, still totally impressed. For those of you unfamiliar, Dead Island's "analog" combat system essentially made the game. Along...

I don't think I really liked any of Mass Effect 1's sidequests. As yahtzee eloquently put, the rolling refrigerator segments do a good job of making you feel like the universe is full of more than just chest high walls, and fighting thresher maws with a tank was fun the first 2 or 3 times, but...

Just throwing that out there. Pretty sure I'm not the first person to say it, and I know I won't be the last, but I'll already be draining my pocket money in the next few weeks to pick up a 3DS (possibly used) and a new copy of Pokemon X or Y. Now just take that, combine it with the WiiU's...

No, the worst part of it is when others think that because it doesn't work for them, the problem is universal. I think I can count on one hand the times this has been a problem for me. In recent memory, maybe thrice. Twice, it was just faulty and went back to behaving normally the next time I...

Wait, this is a thing that exists? Well... more power to them for tapping into their fanbase, I suppose. As a marketing tactic, it would be way more successful if they focused on getting attention to their console and then try it in about 6 months, though. Really, if they want to sell the Wii U...

Couldn't agree more, on both parts. I definitely felt like the crafting system was the most clunky part of the game. I also thought it was absolutely HILARIOUS the amount of gear you'd be carrying by the end of the game. 4 guns, 12 grenades, 12 molotovs, 6 packets of C4, 6 landmines, a quiver of...

OK, so brief filler: Dying Light is an upcoming open-world-ish Zombie game being done by Techland (the creators of Dead Island) that essentially looks like everything Dead Island wanted to be but wasn't. Visceral combat, platforming, interactive environment, resource-managing apocalypse heaven...

Thank you for the responses, everyone - I'm quite surprised by the results. In particular, I was very surprised by how many of you live outside of the US. Not that this is a bad thing, just an interesting point. I'm going to bump this one or two more times and see if I can get a couple more...

fiberoptic cable supports gigabit speeds, to answer your question. This is how it's done in japan, and how google fiber is being developed. Otherwise, I know that a lot of computers have capped upload/download speeds because the hardware can't handle any more, but even what the US considers...

Survey link. [https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/32JTLRQ] Brief introduction: My name is Daniel Zimmerman and I'm a freshman at at my local community college, currently enrolled for a major in business/marketing. For a final project this year, our marketing instructor has told us to market a...

Help me internet! My resume is a disaster! And by that I mean I don't even really have one. Maybe I'm being bullheaded or suffering from a creative block or something, but it seems like I'm stuck in a paradox in regards to finding a job. The context: I've been outta high school for 6 or 7...

So I just completed the Mass Effect franchise, having finally played through from the first game all the way through the third. "Completed" meaning I do what I always do - get to the line where this scene starts in ME3, shout at my Xbox a little bit, then go fart around in multiplayer with...

So 2k is aware that arena mode exists. Now the question, WHY CAN'T THEY FORCE ONE OUT FOR BORDERLANDS 2?? :P Seriously though, I joined you in 'squee'ing my way through the under the sea trailer. IT WILL BE AWESOME. Also, why would you ever buy a season pass before some of the DLC is...

Replaying it. It's been on my shelf for a year. I got it for the Xbox for, like, 5 bucks used. I wanted to see what the community thought of it - underrated, overrated, didn't sell enough? I, personally think that it's one of the better games of the generation if only because of it's attitude...

Right? Why can't we just have everyone walk into the sunset? WHY COULDN'T BOOKER AND ELIZABETH GO TO PARIS IRRATIONAL??? >:( You know, I read something about this awhile ago, the dark energy thing. I actually read a really, really detailed version of that plot-end. See, the Reapers were...
