I don't think it's closed minded at all. Addicts are worthless scum, and should be treated as such. I agree that throwing them in jail for the act is moronic, as it does nothing but overcrowd prisons and drain taxpayer's money Treating it like a sickness is just as idiotic as treating obesity...

Of course Lionhead feels that way. They haven't made a game worth purchasing at full price since 2004, and Fable 3 is disaster on every level.

Finished Black Plague, which was scary at first, but then I realized that you can sprint more than twice as fast as the Tuurngait (zombie fuckers with flashlights), and it went back to being hilarious like Overture. I also completed Sanitarium, which was surprisingly short; but not a bad deal...

The fast and sure fix for nvidia users would be to hit up the NV control panel and turn the extension limit on. Unfortunately they removed that option (along with a bunch of others) with recent drivers for whatever reason. You could roll back your drivers to like 18x or below, or download...

Multiple people can be on a single steam account at the same time, it's just that only one may be "online" at a time, the rest need to be in offline mode. You almost certainly will be able to use a single steam account and play through a VPN.

Had the urge to play some scary shit, so I decided I'd actually attempt to complete Penumbra without quitting in disgust at the terrible, terrible combat. After realizing I could just run around pelting the dogs to death with barrels and rocks (sitting on boxes is what I did last time, and...

Finished the single player in just under 5 hours, and a good bit of that was me standing around at the beginning and end of the level transitions listening to the dialog. If there's one thing they got right, it's the dialog; and they hit a grand slam with that one. The levels are impressive...

Got the third Humble Indie Bundle and knocked out all three games. Not a bad deal at all for a buck, and Trine alone is reason enough to grab the pack. Also finished my first playthrough of Majora's Mask which while not as great as OOT, was still awesome.

You don't need any kind of cpu throttling program. Running it on a single core works just fine in that department. Getting it to properly display ultra high resolutions on the other hand takes some hex editing.

Got around to playing Arrival, and I'm left confused. What the fuck Bioware? I expected something well written and awesome like LotSB. Instead I got a corridor shooter that has you going solo with zero meaningful choices and the worst writing I've ever seen in the series.

You're doing yourself a disservice by not using a gamepad. I've been using my cordless rumblepad 2 for years now, and I can't imagine trying to play N64/PSX games without working force feedback, let alone without a gamepad. N64 games require some clever re-binding because of the goofy...

Wait, what? Even with Broken Steel I usually cap out after exploring 1/4th of the map, and The Pitt without even touching the main quest. NV is a lot slower unless I go out of my way to constantly snipe everything around me as I travel.

Regardless of what type of build I'm going for, I always use the same stats (6 ST, 5 PE, 1 CH, 10 IN, 6 AG, 6 LK) as that lets me max out every important secondary skill along with one combat skill, and pick up every perk a specific build may require. For Traits, Good Natured is the new...

Here's a handy little graph and reference page that I whipped up to explain this sort of thing (1024 width shouldn't break the page for those with tiny minitors). It's really not that complicated. If you're trying to sell a game to kids, all you need are AWESOME GRAPHICS...

I've played through ME and ME2 many, many times; but I've never played a fem Shep in either. I'm intrigued. Gonna have to dig out ME1 and do a female Shepard run now.

Uninstalled The Witcher, which was a huge letdown after all the hype and praise I've read (What the fuck, guys?). The graphics are straight out of 2004 and the game runs like crap, which would be fine if the story was interesting and the combat was fun. Unfortunately, the swordplay is nothing...

I've always questioned the admins about this when I find a server like that. Watching them flail as they try to defend the hypocrisy is hilarious ("My kids play here" 'Really? You let your children play a murder simulator, but you draw the line at foul language?' "....."). It's the same thing...

Finished Grim Fandango after having to look up puzzle solutions three or four times. Apparently I haven't gotten much better at adventure games over the last 12 years. The Witcher has been sitting in my 'Need to play' pile for over a year now, so now seems as good a time as any to give it a try.

Had the urge to play DA:O, and was hoping they had ironed out most of the bugs with the final patch; so I reinstalled and patched that fucker up. And then uninstalled it in disgust two hours later, because they didn't fix shit and that it's just as broken now as it was day 1. So now...

Finished Dead Space 2 in a single sitting (How's that for a nerdy friday night?). It was better than the first, but nothing great. My fingers were sore about halfway through from all of the "MASH E!!!111shiftone" QTE's. The story started off at a blistering pace, and had me hooked... and then...
