I think it all depends on what you want to get out of it. I play multiplayer FPS games frequently, and I almost never communicate with strangers. Moreover, it doesn't seem like many others are either, judging by the lack of flashing mic icons. That includes Evolve (I have played it with friends also). It's still fun.…

You don't have to participate in chat. I never do, in any game, aside from playing with friends, and it works fine.

While I agree in principle with some people suggesting "don't support them and their lousy business model," the reality is that Evolve is a laudable attempt to create something new in an era of sameness and sequels. If you want more options than Call of Duty: Riot Shield Warrior and Assassin's Creed 27, you should…

I think "Fuck all the branches of the MRA machine" is an overly simplistic and emotionally-driven comment, but to suggest that such a statement is roughly equal to "I hope u get raped u fucking whore" is a whole other level of crazy. The former is a sentiment, however course, questioning the validity of a movement;…

Another day, another thing to be outraged about in Destiny. In terms of amassing grievances, you guys can't say you didn't get your money's worth, you don't even have to pay a monthly subscription to be this angry!

Well put. You may feel that they didn't include enough content in the core game, but the existence of partially-built areas that may ultimately be part of the expansions does not mean "they cut out content to sell it to me again." They would still likely do this, even if there was twice as much content in the core…

I think his point is that it is actually possible for something to be funny without it being Jackass. It's not difficult to sense of a certain amount of cynicism in games like this, which I definitely got from Dead Rising 3 and which I could see getting from Saints Row and a few others — that developers are simply…

Hard to say how much depth the actual game will have, but the visuals alone are pretty wild. Definitely worth keeping an eye on.

Yes, I saw the JPEG you guys been shopping around on Reddit, the authenticity of which I have no reason to question. Aside from the fact that she doesn't actually confirm that BMW currently advertises with Gawker (and it could well be that a customer relations rep has no idea, or access to that information), which…

I find it sad that you, who seem to be a reasonably intelligent person with at least some initiative, have decided that THIS is going to be the big cause worthy of so much of your energy. The whole thing has basically become self-reflexive now, with all the discussion being about this silly faux-movement itself rather…

It's sad to see how many apparently-functioning adults become children when exposed to the Internet. He probably would have had the maturity not to say these things in person to someone, but he said them on Twitter, to a much larger audience. He has no one to blame but himself.

OH I GET IT sorry *hangs head*

You can run down teammates in a tank? I had no idea. Now, how can I use that to my advantage...

Those Captains, such trolls.

It may well be that certain low level guns will end up being the most powerful in the Crucible simply because of bonuses, reload time, things that seem less important until you equalize all the damage...

It may scale damage, but it doesn't take away your class abilities and I assume it doesn't affect special weapon abilities. Playing at low levels in the Crucible (which is all I've done) I regularly see people doing crazy shit I cannot even do, regardless of damage. Everything in the game was designed for PvE, and…

Is it really that spammable? I haven't gotten far enough to see such things (and I don't usually play a Hunter), but that seems ridic. The Titan's super ultra power smash AE attack has a very long recharge.

Given that supposedly it was in development for Mac, it seems likely it will eventually, unless it just doesn't sell on PC. Eh, I'm playing Destiny for the time being anyway.

I'm mostly bummed because they shafted Mac users. My PC is in a closet and this isn't enough to get me to dig it out. The Sims was one of the few cross-platform franchises.
