    When did you first use the Konami code

    I think I posted this in another thread but what the hell: In Silent Hill 3 from 2003, if you beat the game, and then use the Konami code Douglas appears in his underwear in every cutscene. I was easily entertained back then, and I don't think I've ever been more excited about anything in a...

    Is the DS a chick system?

    I hate that term. It makes it sound like all guys like shooting stuff and big explosions and hate The Sims because it isn't "manly" whilst girls only like games like Nintendogs and find Call of Duty too violent. Bleh! That being said yes: The DS is definitely catered more towards girls than...

    Is Steam making you spend more on games than you used to do?

    Definitely! How could it not? When you had to actually physically go down to gamestop or whatever, within opening hours and buy an actual physical copy of the game you wanted to play it tended to stop me from buying on impulse. Not to mention the fact that a store only can have a given amount of...

    Do you play Minecraft?

    I will play every once in a while with friends or acquantances, but singleplayer is mostly dead to me. Not that it isn't fun in its own right, it is, but I just find that I have less time in the day for gaming, and so I would rather use it on other games. I will definitely say it is one of my...

    Does the influx of younger games disturb you?

    I think it's completely fine. Playing video games was a huge part of my childhood, and now that I'm older I can see that I might have played some games that I wasn't old enough for if you asked some more strict parents. It's all about what the parents deem ok and not okay, although you of course...

    December Steam Game Contest

    Call of Duty: Ghost In list form: A buggy mess, boring and linear campaign, poorly optimized for the PC, ok-ish multiplayer, overpriced, almost the same game as Black Ops 2 which wasn’t great either

    Favourite Super Smash Bros game?

    I've played Super Smash Bros Since I was about 7, when my older brother let me play Super Smash Bros Melee on his Nintendo Gamecube back in 2002-2003. That being said I probably like Brawl more than Melee and I'm an absolute beast with Diddy Kong, if I do say so myself. So what's your favourite...

    Top 3 Exclusive PS3 Games

    I think my problem with Heavy Rain, much like Beyond: Two souls, was that it was for all intents and purposes an interactive movie that tried to sell the whole "your choice matters" even though it really didn't. I think there are lots of other games that did this better than Heavy Rain did. Even...

    What Attracts Gamers to Violent Games?

    This is sort of an "age old" discussion about whether or not video game violence leads to real life violence, with most professional studies leaning towards the two being unrelated. Causation does not imply correlation, and video games is a very popular form of media. I bet if we look at...

    Trash talk between friends...

    I think it's really obvious that you shouldn't be talking trash to complete strangers. You can do it with you friends because you know them, know what topics are ok and what topics to ster away from. With a friend there's not as big of a chance to accidentally "push buttons" when it comes to...

    Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft

    I actually don't agree with the whole pay to win argument when it comes to this game. I feel you can enjoy it just fine without ever paying a dime. I think I've clocked about ~50 hours, and I find it refreshing. there's not much like it out there, and I think it's an enjoyable model. It's...

    Which do you prefer? Sims 3 or Sims 4?

    The Sims 3 is more fleshed out right now, but I have a feeling that I might like Sims 4 more once the expansions come pouring out, if I decide to buy them that is. The Sims 3 had this nasty habit of crashing constantly, and since it doesn't autosave (why doesn't it do that?) it has led to many a...

    Upcoming games

    What upcoming game has you most excited, and why? For me personally it's got to be Batman: Arkham Knight. Rocksteady has not yet let me down with it's Batman games, despite Origins not being up to par (Also it is made by a different studio, but still) so the trailers and the inclusion of the...

    Have you ever hacked/cheated in a game?

    That's the Konami-code :P That is actually the first "cheat" I ever used in a game. Silent Hill 3 from 2003, if you beat the game, and then use this code Douglas appears in his underwear in every cutscene. That was a great moment for me :P I used to use one of those chat bots in League of...

    PC Gaming Dead? Lol

    I don't want to sound like one of those "PC-Gaming Master race" types, but I think it's pretty clear that PC gaming will always have an advantage over consoles, seeing that the new "generation" of consoles comes every 6 or 7 or so years, whilst a new and more powerful PC comes out almost every...

    PC-Ports - Should we demand better?

    I've been noticing a trend these days: You are a big developer and you have a popular console game, and obviously you need to get on the PC-market as well right? Surely you, with your multi-billion dollar entertainment company, can afford to throw money at a team to make sure the PC-port is...
