  1. It may sound like Hollywood, but business is run by ego. Video game business isn't different. In the previous 24 hours JP tweeted this K link: http://kotaku.com/59...s-x men-destiny The following picture speaks volumes: It may not be ovbious at first, but there's a single guy sitting in front, it's Denis Dyack, CEO of SK.
  2. Yeah probably. Then again, you won't hear people in Egypt call their country "Land of the free" and then say that all colored and mexicans should be kicked out of the country. Of course the USA is a large country, so absolutely there are more idiots, and absolutely get more coverage. Wait... are you comparing the USA to Egypt? Egpyt, a country that just got out of a sort-of dictatorship and is, politically, still quite unstable.
  3. Mass Effect

    Zelda!
  4. "We're spending too much money on education" I disagree, it clearly shows the US should spend more on education. What a bunch of retards. Is it just me, or is the US more "special" w.r.t. to vocal ignorant religious chauvinists?
  5. Jeff Goldblum

    What about Vibes?
  6. Windows 8

    The jump of usability from Windows 3.11 to Windows 95 was huge. Every release after that had some usability improvements in some places, removed a bunch of useability features else were. The main focus of the releases was put on the graphics. Windows 8 is probably the worst step so far. They ruined the start menu in various ways, they enforced the mistake called "ribbon" to the rest of the UI. "Explorer" has never been as bad as this.
  7. Will the game have a goal? Or is it just sandbox?
  8. Windows 8

    Windows has gotten worse since Windows 95

    Life Aquatic > *
  10. damn it... I really need to play dishonered
  11. Awesome, time to commute with a weird grin on my face \o/
  12. What is the value in subtlety?

    Is it subtlety? Or "simply" lower fidelity?
  13. Life

    Finally handed in the keys to my rental place, and I'm getting my deposit back \o/ Last week it wasn't "clean" enough ...
  14. What is the value in "Randomness"

    True randomness is 4, as determined by a fair dice roll
  15. Hotline Miami

    ugh.. slanted walls
  16. "So long and thanks for all the fish"?
  17. Convert me, PC gamers!

    The instakill-permadeath mode of SSD is reason enough for me not to use it. I'd rather go for an SSD Caching solution where writes are backed by a harddrive.
  18. How far will you go for a scary game?

    I've been watching horror movies since I was a child, so I'm not easily scared. I'm also not jumpy, although I have been startled a couple of times. As for scary games, I haven't played any that I would really qualify as scary (haven't played Amnesia yet). But there have been games that startled me a couple of times, they are usually FPS games where I sneak around and suddenly get surprised by an enemy or trap that I really didn't expect. This happened to me a couple of times in Skyrim. But also non-scary games like Rainbow Six managed to do that a couple of times.
  19. Quitter's Club: Don't be ashamed to quit the game.

    You should play DA2, it's even worse
  20. Borderlands 2

    Water is broken. You can't electrocute people who are in the water :/
  21. Ludonarrative assonance

    In Duke Nukem 3D you play a professional ass-kicker. While the mighty foot is also you melee weapon it serves an important role in combination with the freeze and shrink rays Without the mighty foo those enemies wouldn't die.
  22. Unnecessary Comical Picture Thread

    I found waldo. No really, I found him. I think the picture is bad. It's all over the place, there's no theme. Movies (live action and animated), games, comics, TV series (live action and animated), internet memes, etc.
  23. :tup: sadly, too many are too stupid to understand what that guy just did
