    How do you take losing when you were young?

    I was an obstinate kid. Actually most of my playtime would consist of me playing a certain level or battle over and over until I won. I remember I was once stuck at an underwater stage in God of War, the one where the walls crush you if you don't time your swimming manuvres right...I kept...

    If you could live in any game...

    Well none of the violent ones for sure. I'd pick Pokemon or Monster Hunter if I had a choice on the matter. Certainly not Dark Souls or Silent Hill. The Elder Scrolls games would make an interesting world, not too dangerous for me to die instantly and not small enough to get bored. Magic and...

    Steam Slow on my laptop Potential virus!

    Actually, yes, you can disable the automatic updater. Basically this happens because Steam opens and runs in the background automatically, but checks for updates each time it does that, so it slows down your other work on the laptop while it's doing that. To stop this: You'll have to open...

    SWTOR Players?

    I used to play it for a short period of time, until I fried my pc in an unrelated incident and haven't quite recovered from that. I was a Sith, level 31 :p . It's a very interesting game, really caught me up with the interactive part of the game ( I ended up being a "nice" Sith out of the force...

    Please someone tell me why it take years to develop a game

    That seems to be the case with a lot of games. Good ideas can come up and be put in production by a game development company, but become sidetracked with more menial things, commercial issues like how wide a spectrum of gamers the project-game is going to reach and whether adding a size cup to a...

    Renting games before buying?

    It makes sense to rent a copy and then buy it to finish the game, that way you wouldn't be disappointed 10 minutes after the unpackaging. It's a tactic that saves people from a lot of senseless expenses and shopping frustration. But I suppose a different way to go about it would be to try a...

    Fallout 3 player beats the game in less than 15 minutes

    That's...impressive. Honestly, personally I'd be so distracted with all the possibilities the game offers that I'd ruin my speed run 5 minutes in the game. Attention deficit, plus endless possibilities equals endless gameplay. Yeah that's a bit of a buzzkill for me, escpecially because I tend...

    First game you bought?

    My first game ever, was an outdated shooting airplane game called Raptor: Call of the Shadows, for Windows 3.1 or DOS...yeah, that old! It had pixelated graphics but it was surprisingly elegantly designed for an old game, both in the menus as well as the various stages. It basically had 4 main...

    Do you wait for discounts?

    I guess it's not much to save 75% out of a 10-buck game but with games that are so much more expensive, even a slight discount can be substantial...While one could put aside a few bucks for a good game, some games are inapproachable.

    Ever made your own game?

    I used to make small fangames in RPGmaker, but then life caught up to me. I really liked the programme and it was easy to use, but eventually glitches and other obnoxious things stopped me from completing these games a little while before finally ditching the idea completely.

    What I hate about pc gaming

    Me, I just prefer playing with a controller in my hands in general and having a screen at the other end of the room. I just grab the controller, get up and pace back and forth in the room as I try to solve a riddle or something. It generally gives me more of a freedom to move than gaming on a...

    Can everyone here agree that aiming using the analog sticks was a pain?

    I have never been able to shoot straight with playstation analog sticks. Never. This was the reason I ditched games like Hitman back then, or just gave my brother the controller and watched him play through. The nintendo analog stick was even worse! Especially for games that you needed your...

    Which MMORPG are you playing?

    I've played a bunch of MMOs, but because of my studies I don't have the time to really get into these things, so I only play free-to-play MMOs. RIght now the only two games I log into are Frosaken World by Perfect World, (which was botched with last year's update that eliminated almost half the...

    If you created an MMO, what would it be like?

    MMOs as they are, are not bad at all, but sometimes I just get bored out of my wits by repetition and grinding. I'd make an MMO where there's a mediocre difficulty setting on the storyline and the quests, but every now and then the server is programmed to make random events appear at random...

    Opinions on Going Free to Play?

    It's a little late to answer your post, but here goes: As a free-to-play SWToR noob, I can say I can't really compete with pay-to-play or veteran players who have characters at the same level as me. It might be free, but it's like I'm only playing a dim shadow of the game. They made sure to...

    RPG maker MV

    What version of RPG maker do you mean? I have RPG maker VX ACE. So far the only problems I've had are that I can't seem to make the character & item lists customisation window fit my screen. It doesn't respond to changing the screen specs either. It's really frustrating, I can't seem to by pass...

    Favorite childhood game

    Mine were two "ancient" PC games: Raptor-Call of the Shadows, which is a 2D shooting game with an airship and various weapons and stages in earth and space, and Risky Woods, which is the "Dark Souls" of the early 90s games, a 2D platform RPG that was so hard to beat they say no one ever made it...

    The Last Game You Lost Sleep Over

    Well any game that's hard to beat is addictive to me. Lately I had been melting my brain over Crusader Kings II and Don't Starve. Both are very complicated, but for different reasons. I was thinking "This time I'll get it right!" and spent several days and nights trying to finally get it...

    How do you buy your games?

    I prefer physical copies as well, they just make me feel more safe about my game's data. Purchasing and downloading a game online or pre-ordering a hard copy is much faster though. Since most retail stores around here bring a limited range of games, some of these games are hard to come by...
