Well, I used to use Opera, then Opera 15 happened. If I'd wanted to use Chrome, I'd have already been using Chrome. Guess I'll just go to IE then since I have a Windows Phone and a Surface.

TSW's implementation of classless/levelless gameplay works out excellently. Guild Wars 2's no holy trinity... not so much. In Guild Wars 2 all the boss fights devolve into "DPS the boss until he starts attacking you, then run around like a headless chicken." When the meta for running PvE c...

No, you don't. Celestial coins expire if you miss it, yes, but you can only have 7 celestial coins at once. Ardent coins do not expire.

Leadership, at level 10, gives 2000 AD per day tops, depending on rares ("gather astral diamonds" is 400 for 8 hours, the rest is shit). You can unlock more slots (with achievements impossible without paid boosters...) but it's still gonna be eh. It's 400 for 6 hours. 400 AD * 9 slots * 4...

Well, one, you do in fact get more AD as you level up (Dailies go to double, then triple rewards) for double/triple the work. Leadership looks like it also has a fair number of sources of AD, and you can sell decent gear you find on the auction house for AD. The maximum amount of AD you can get in a...

Based on the number of skills available and the number of skill points you are given, I suspect you can have all the skills you need for both PvE and PvP. Feats, no. But feats only cost AD to respec.

I played Mass Effect 2 on Insane the first time through. I then played on the lowest difficulty setting thereafter, and the combat was still terribly tedious. I usually do subsequent playthroughs on an easier difficulty.

In the vein of software like RPG Maker and Game Maker, I'd say use RPG Maker if that is exactly the kind of game you want to make, because RPG Maker is not a very flexible system. It's basically able to make top-down RPG games with turn based menu combat and nothing else. Admittedly, the last time I...

The problem is not making enough of them (You can just store enough processors, and then start selling them all at the stroke of midnight, you need to sell 23 crates of processors to reached the 1,500,000 mark.)

But Sega does what Nintendon't. Which is why we're playing our Sega Orrr with the latest awesome Sonic and Alex Kidd games, while Mario just does shitty, shitty, oh so shitty games that completely miss the point of what made Mario good. I can't hear you over the sound of me playing Sonic & All-...

Guild Wars 1 was a team PvP game. It was made for organized teams competing together; the individual/random-matched PvP modes were an aside, not the main affair. So... all the fun PvP requires the extremely not-fun task of finding 7 other people that I can play with on a relatively consistent sched...

What PvP did you do in GW1, that you would describe it as "zero"? Let's see, I did Alliance Battles, Random Arenas, Codex Arenas, Hero Battles, Jade Quarry, and Fort Aspenwood. I didn't do Guild vs Guild, Heroes' Ascent, or Team Arena. My experience with the other PvP modes doesn't give m...

GW1 was orders of magnitude more interesting, more deep, than GW2. It's the better game. But it did not lend itself to PvE, a direction the developers tried to push it in so very hard. It's also dead, or so close as to make no difference. Uh... what. The Guild Wars 1 PvE was a lot better than Guild...

Yeah, the only reason I've ever found to have much in the way of Humanity was a Chaos Weapon (the Furysword, for the record) as their damage goes up with active soft humanity (ie - the number in the corner is higher than 00) but that maxes out at 10. Which is also the max for the bonus on finding i...

I honestly didn't find the twist very effective. It changed the significance of a few a events earlier in the plot, but looking forward, it's all about the same: just a different person trying to blow up the city. In that role, Talia and Bane are interchangeable or worse: one is a master of...

Uh, you can. Just keep in mind that breaking down an item produces materials a grade lower than the weapon would be constructed with.

It looks like the major servers (something awful's Goonstation, and Baystation 12) are role-playing servers.

Whoever told you that Goonstation is an RP server is either a complete noob or a Goon troll.

To be fair, half the fun of the game is trying to troll without getting caught!

My second concern is that Mr. Schafer is far from impeccable. Have any of you played Full Throttle to the end?

You really don't have to, Windows 7 has a built in memory tester if you mash F8 enough times during boot.

A parody of horror? That's a recipe for disaster. Trying to make something that's already funny into something funny is a recipe for disaster.

That hardly sounds like parody to me, sounds like proper horror.

Okay, I've found the real trick is to not act like I'm playing Phoenix Wright. I don't get to object, pick a very specific piece of their statement apart, and present contradictions. No. The choices are be nice, or be a dick.
