Much more humorous than last year's, but equally as obvious. The 'simple' site is a riot, well done.

Was soloing a zen-master in Wizards & Warriors, but the dude is just so over-powered that the game is not challenging. GalCivII: DA Civ IV (the Warlords expansion is worth it, I think) Bloodlines (Go Wesp5!) DoW:DC RoN: RoL (got sucked in by the steam-punk look) Of course, FO & FO2...

Now I know why my last power supply crapped out, thanks for the info.

Thanks BL, I guess I'll just keep playing my old games.

Just curious. I have an older, low end comp: Intel p4 1.7Ghz 512 MB ram ATI Radeon 9250 PCI w/128mb memory Can I run this game? Oh, and I don't give a damn about gfx (can you tell?) so turning off all the flash is just fine with me; if it will work.

Damn, I intended to mention that but forgot (drunken poster I). I also intended to say something to the effect that RPGoty should be given credit for his/her/it's own opinions. Though they may share similar dispositions and proclivities, I find their writing styles to be different enough...

OT Give this guy (RPGoty) a break already. Since when have we known Rosh to post anywhere without saying, unequivocally, I AM FUCKIN' ROSHAMBO, PREPARE TO BE CRUSHED! Granted, the writing style is somewhat similar. Yet it is dissimilar enough to doubt this current 'conspiracy theory'...

The title of the comic strip you linked is "The Other Foot". I am not too familiar with Penny Arcade, but based on the title alone I would have to say they are poking fun at themselves (i.e., the shoe being on the other foot) for some of the things they might have said in the past. Just a...

I know there are a lot of smarty-pants here, so could someone clarify this a little: Does he mean the game is a solid gold lock (slam dunk), or is he simply stating the obvious by saying it's a 'lock' that some people will like it and some wont? That seems like a bizarre statement to...

Reminds me more of Road Warrior than Fallout, but that's just me.

I don't know squat about Rosh's or VD's leaks, but I generally consider everything to be rumor or hearsay until I see it for myself or hear it "straight from the horse's mouth". I won't buy FO3 based on hype, nostalgia, or any other insubstantial or emotional reason. I will buy it if it is a...

I particularly liked the part where the fallen soldier reaches for his gun. That was fucked up, and very funny.

It is good. There is an adjustable slider for this very same purpose in FO1 & 2. It might not speed things up enough for those A.D.D. types, but it works great for those of us with normal (average) attention spans. Ditto. If there were a Nuremberg-type trial attempting to bring to justice...

Sounds like you may be eligible for an "Aging Hessian" award. I used to love how metal bands back then started thanking Mrs. Gore for creating an environment in which adding an f-bomb to a track would guarantee many extra sales, I'm sure that must have burned her hide. But now I am going way...

I've always been perplexed by the moral outrage expressed at the re-arrangement of 1's and 0's so that the line of code that once represented a "Live Thing" now represents a "Dead Thing". Even more perplexing to me is the theory that moving about 1's & 0's in a fantasy type setting will...
