@Lusit: I don't know. The Witcher 2 was clearly designed from the ground up to allow you to play it with either a mouse and keyboard or a gamepad. It's why I was able to play through the entire game twice on my PC using my xbox controller. And the quality didn't suffer one bit because of that as far as I can tell.

@Hueynewton: Anything can happen, and probably will. Also remember that at the turn of the last century very few people could envisage the collapse of the British Empire. Two world wars later and the Empire was dying.

The Pyramids are what seem to be grabbing most of the attention on most of the news sites, but honestly the discovery of an entire city and hundreds of villages is even more exciting. After all whilst Pyramid's are interesting they only provide a small glimpse of people at the very peak of Egyptian society. Whereas an…

I suspect the hipster elements of the PC gamer's psyche comes mostly from spending the previous five years with all but a select few gaming media outlets harp on and on and on and on and on (you get the point) about the incoming death of PC gaming and the ascendancy of the Consoles.

I do believe I became less intelligent when I read that plot. I really, really, wish they'd just fire whoever the hell made up the story for MW2 and now MW3 and hire someone who actually has a decent understanding of a) strategic military thought and b) knows how to actually put together a coherent story that doesn't…

@southerngeek: I suspect that the answer to that is linked to the whole "Our two worlds are inextricably linked" thing. To wit, the universes are different in many ways, but the point of divergence can't be too far in the past as they are also in many ways similar. Thus they both share a common past, so when Walter…

@SG-17: Eh, my issue with anything happening in the Milkyway at present in the Stargate 'Verse is that since the Asgard gave Earth beam weaponry the balance of power has shifted so far into Earth's favour that there really is no suspense, or even contest out there. A Ha'Tak will be taken out in a few shots, a single…
