Untitled: RANT #1 : Gamers →
dontwonderwhyletsgogethigh: I hate how guys think that girls can’t game or they complain about their girlfriends not letting them play their beloved games… Maybe if you played a two player game or a non-FPS game, if you even own any (such a massive gamer playing the same type of game) your girlfriend would join you . …

My boyfriend bought me an Xbox.
lovethymusic9112: “I know you were thinking about a Roku or whatever… but I thought you could have this to play games on and stuff if you wanted. Plus I got a really great deal on it.”  He is fantastic. I’m keeping him around.

Siris Ankh: Halo Made Me Hate FPS →
sirisankh: I hate playing online. I hate first person shooter games. This hatred came from playing online with Halo when it first came out for XBOX. I usually played with friends through LAN parties and was blissfully ignorant to the evils of online gaming. I should have remained ignorant. I don’t know why I…

Hyrule Chozo: It is a combination of being at... →
hyrulechozo: It is a combination of being at least a generation behind with games, and also being slightly older than the average Tumblr gamer, but I constantly see these posts that rub me the wrong way: I’ll see a photo of a last gen game (that I haven’t even played) and the caption will inevitably read: “OMG… Nostalgia. It’s a dangerous beast.

“as a male gamer. you know who developers actually sell too… piss...”
– colugothelegend, N4G. Note: there were a lot of comments I could have picked out from this thread about Jade Raymond saying it was time for games as a medium to “grow up”, but I think this one pretty much sums up all the negative responses that can be found within the comments.

No more New York for Crysis, please!
(The following is taken from comments on rumoured screens of Crysis 3.)
ChocalateDog203: Is anyone else disappointed it's set in New York again? I was kind of hoping for another setting but oh well, the game will prolly still be damn fun.
ginsunuva: Yeah, I mean at the end of C2 it showed [SPOILERS] the planet getting owned by aliens all over in every country. And we just saved New York.
So why the hell are we just stuck in New York again? Reusing assets Crytek?
radracing86: NYC is a very boring setting IMO.
jaymart2k: Agree, how many times already times has a game been set in New York?
Anyone?
Mrmagnumman357: Definitely agree, their are other cities! What about London, its a great looking city, and has the 5th highest GDP in the world. Or maybe Chicago which has the 4th highest GDP, and has one of the top 3 skylines in the world. These are both world class mega cities that are in the top 5 most powerful cities in the world. I would mention Tokyo and Hong Kong, but it seems like Crytek is trying to keep the setting in America or close to America

Dark Souls confirmed for PC, but at a price... →
There’s been a lot of negative reactions to the news of Dark Souls for PC. Probably not helped by the inclusion of Games for Windows Live… JoeRuinsEverything: Great, another 50€ saved. I refuse to buy another game with GFWL after spending 3 hours installing/reinstalling/updating/repairing and finally giving up when i just wanted to play a Dawn Of War 2 multiplayer game. A high...
