@Trifanfool: The worst part is when Saeed, the Reuters employee is crawling away, they keep the reticule on him and almost beg him to pick up a weapon so they can shoot and murder him. Read more

I watched the video and the most disturbing thing is how eager they are to shoot. They're actually begging for permission. Despite the fact at no time they are fired upon (and, as far as I can tell, I don't actually see a weapon, only cameras), it just goes to show that war can twist and warp someone. Read more

@chewblaha: Did you actually use your brain before you typed all that out? Read more

@Deanb: It's my understanding they didn't buy it at all. DNF was entirely funded by 3D Realms. What T2 bought was the distribution rights for $16 million (THE FOOLS!). When 3D Realms ran out of money, after spending $20 million (THE FOOLS!), they went to T2 and asked for $6 million. T2 claim they offered $2.5 million… Read more

@nauticalland: You've just given me an idea. I'm going to make a Zork-esque game that is the most distasteful game ever known. It will make Manhunt look like a teddy bears' picnic. When people complain, I will point out that the game is entirely in Middle-English and what kind of child (or indeed anyone) is going to… Read more

I always found it interesting how books never required a rating. American Psycho, The Entity... even The Canterbury Tales. Double standards or are we just happy kids are reading? Read more

Tremors! Man, I know it's a horror/comedy, but just like Gremlins (another horror comedy), Tremors scared the ever living shit out of me when I first saw it. I was like 9. Read more

@martialbullet: Nothing will bring back the arcade scene and there are good reasons for it. Read more

So Capcom pretty much can't stick to anything they say? Figures. At least Shinji Mikami finally let people cut off his head... Read more

@kev873: Must just be on the American dashboard. We don't have that. We don't get Netflix or even the indie game channel. Read more

Yes and no. The PS3 browser sucks, but it's the BROWSER that sucks. The Wii has Opera and its divine. (I actually use Opera as my main browser.) Additionally, although I don't want to have a console as my main way to surf the net, it's a good back up. The other day I wasn't able to use my PC and I while I could use… Read more

@GAMIE64: You know, I've pretty much decided that the Internet is stupid. People rate Half-Life 2 but hate Sonic Rush? Philistines! Read more

@Jeslijar: Haha, yeah, sad isn't it. Job applications remind me of WoW sometimes. Read more

@slotter: "As long as people are easily butt hurt and loved to get trolled, there will be people who troll them, not because they're assholes, but because it's fun to do and the other people ask for it." Read more

@pitseleh0: I'm going to have to agree with the notion that virtual environments show people's true colours. I'm not a jerk on WoW. The only thing that can actually get me venting/semi-jerk-like is when some asshat decides it's okay to ruin someone else's self-esteem because it's just words on a screen, right? There… Read more

Does the book mention that if the future will be like WoW that you'll only be able to participate in this "combat" if you have a gear score of at least 5,5k and already have the achievement? Read more

@Gloibin: See I disagree. I love Super Mario Galaxy and I hate Super Mario 64. Always have hated it too. Read more

@SwindleUK: As I said, that doesn't make it good; it makes it influential. Those two words are not synonymous. Read more

@Tarnationman: Nice to know I'm not the only one. :) Read more

@AD.Munck with music in his head.: Just to be a pedantic dick, it's not OCD to care about numbers. That's OCPD (not to be confused with the evil corporation in Robocop), which is what you have if you are obsessed with rules and order. OCD is obsessions about compulsions. So, for example, an alcoholic might be… Read more
