LOL three posts in and Godwin's law kicks in.
How do you know Hitler's other hobbies like sketching buildings,breeding German shepherds and walking in the mountains weren't the cause of WW2.
Boycott alpine rambling and watercolour painting!
Won't somebody pleeeease think of the children!
Violent criminals probably don't spend a lot of time playing video games and any time they do spend indoors on the couch instead of out on the streets is a bonus for society.
In my country prisoners are allowed to have gaming consoles in their cells as a reward if they behave themselves, one mass murderer even tried to take the department of corrections to court because they wouldn't update his PS2 to a PS3.
It seems a tad askew that the corrections department (who you...
Yes, yes I am, Absolution was a great game.
I'm a 4X strategy and RPG nut but I only play 2-3 hours a day and a little more on weekends, my wife goes through maybe three "casual" titles a week, mostly point and click adventure and puzzle games and most nights plays from after dinner until one or two in the morning.
Who's the hardcore gamer and who's the casual?
Nobody played it, that's why it failed, there was nothing fundamentally wrong with the gameplay.
Diablo III:Reaper Of Souls,Sunless Sea, Infinity Wars, Hearthstone.
Until recently sex scenes in a game would have run the risk of becoming a laughing stock, the animation and mo-cap technology is incredible now so it's possible to make sex look sensual and realistic and not ridiculously funny like the sex scene from Team America: World Police.
Yeah but there's no game which has been banned which was as shitty as Seth Rogen's movies.
Over the course of the second and third games the morality system of Origins has been employed in support of a moralising narrative.
Even the mangled Google translation gives the gist of the article, it's a pretty funny piece.
A coupe has two doors, a four door car is a sedan or a saloon car, there's no such thing as a four door coupe, four seater coupes yes, four door no.
In Saints row you can do a flying tackle on a woman and pound her face into the pavement, in Dragon's Dogma you can pick up your female companion and throw her off the nearest tower or cliff, in Red Dead Redemption you can tie women up and leave them on the railroad tracks or drag them behind your horse, in Fallout 3 you can...you get my drift.
You can't learn anything about the real world from reading fiction, this messed up idea that fantasy worlds can be used to educate comes from giving kids novels in history class instead of textbooks.
Did they ever fix the spawn camping issue? For FTP it's a decent enough game but the fact that you could stand at the door of the base and mow the opposition down as they spawned was aggravating.
They probably had six people complain via Facebook, that's all it takes to get a product removed or a person fired from their job these days.
If I go down to Target right now I guarantee you I'll be able to pick up a box set of The Sopranos or OZ and a copy of Hostel or Saw on DVD plus as many gruesome crime novels or horror books as I can carry.
It's ridiculous, the other week there was an "outrage' over Aldi in Australia stocking a Roald Dahl book with t...
Oooh, goody, I didn't know that, I love the old school shooter mechanics.
Really? I thought Undead Nightmare was a terrible expansion to an otherwise stellar game, there's nothing good I can say about the zombie content beyond "it was something different".
I still can't justify buying one of the new consoles if the games aren't there, apart from the re-mastered last gen titles, most of which I've already played not one of the games released so far has grabbed my attention.
Maybe when games like Fallout 4, a new GOW or Mass Effect or a new Elder Scrolls appear I'll upgrade but until then no thanks.
Funny how none of the "usual suspects" who screech about GTA complained about RDR even though it had an achievement for tying a prostitute to the railroad tracks and one of the most obnoxious Gay characters ever written into a game.
Assassin's Creed in first person would be barf-tacular, some people get motion sickness from games.
