Let's get something clear straight away: Touching an amphibian with your bare hands is pretty much cruel from the word "go." Know what salt in a wound feels like? That. To the frog, your touch (presumably, as evidence suggests) feels like that.

just don't think its right to propose a question like "is this sci-fi?" and not really take into account all the arguments saying no, because otherwise, why even ask.

Hard to like a totally manipulative compulsive liar slash homicidal weasel. Amazing transformation for a character that was so easy to root for initially.

It's a shame that a LP'er such as this gets the distinction of being the most popular, when there's so many excellent LP channels with actually reasonably tolerable humans behind the voices that are only getting views in the low hundreds. There is no justice.

Yeah I got that, but after the unique and stirring dialog by the Queen in Part One and the promise of a heightened role through the scant bit of dialog in Part Two, their relegation to weaponized testicle-monsters and a hand-waved paragraph of text regarding their fate in Part Three, it was personally a very…

Mass Effect is a case study in promising threads being developed and dropped immediately. That's but one of many. I would posit the Rachni and OMG HUMAN REAPER as two more.

For the last time, we are not Jet Boy and Jet Girl, I don't care if I get to be Jet Boy. Those names suck!

This shows how much contradicion is inherent in so many studies about cannabis. Regular use of cannabis shows suggestions that it inhibits dopamine levels while also aggravating schizophrenia which is linked with heightened dopamine levels (I see this contradiction is [sort of] touched on in the article, but not…

"Bite my diminutive dwarven ass."

You sound just like every other miserable Easterner who's moved here and simply not "gotten it." Do CO a favor and kill yourself, too if you're going to be so miserable. This is a great place to live and all you do is sound hung-up on meaningless trivialities. And where in the heck are you spending $70 on pizza?!…

I think back on that game and it came down to two very distinct but all-too-similar options— grind breeding for Knights of the Round, or grind an absurd number of levels to attain a higher DPS (for lack of a better term) than the final boss. There is room for goiod strategy to succeed, I'm sure, but I'd be surprised…

Voice chat on the 360 Kinect is an embarrassment. I sincerely hope the filtering is improved dramatically on the XBOne Kinect or the entire online world is in for relentless echoes and feedback. And $25.00 for a basic headset seems steep. I hope they are more than the vanilla 360 headset with a new proprietary jack on…

Someone's never tried to use a kb&m from a recliner...

Dark Souls PC works wonderfully with my 360 wireless controller/dongle set. I have had no issues minus the fake one I made for myself when starting out and I forgot that menus are only controllable with the D-Pad. I thought the controller support was broken for a second there :P

I believe you meant to say "fuck the Bed of Chaos." Or at least that's what you meant to say in my head. Because, really, fuck the Bed of Chaos.

I would say that having difficulties and having problems are distinct concepts. Yeah, I died a lot playing the game. Didn't have a problem with it, though. Well, maybe the Tomb of Giants. I did have a problem with that at least until I found a light source...

It is without a doubt much harder to tell if indies support controllers. Definitely agree that. It would be lovely to be able to sort/browse big-picture/controller supported games at a glance, but at least the community hub almost always has the answer (even if you need to sort through several dozen slightly less…

Curious about the Display Fusion Multi-monitor utiliy. Get tired of flipping my primary display to my TV just to play most games fullscreen, and have a hard time figuring out the catalyst control center's inscrutable interface. Anyone have experience with this utility? Worth the $9 price tag or are there other options…

A surprising number of games have 360 controller support baked in. In my experience thus far, if it's been a multiplat release, it's almost certain to have controller support integrated from the get-go. Of the games I've picked up in Steam sale the past couple years, all that were also on console were supported.…

If you get the Ultimate Edition, there is no contest— FO:NV is far and away the superior experience; deeper gameplay, greater variety, better challenge overall, despite its occasional technical hiccups.
