@ikillliberals45 wait - Didn't Terminator actually have a scene where he goes in a gunshop, robs the place and kills the guy behind the counter? Wouldn't that be a better reference? **Shrugs** IT's Nawt a TOOMAH!

@ArtisanTony Yeah, the game was "Fallout: New Vegas" released in 2010. It's a sort of survival game set in a mad max inspired post WW3 NV. There's quite a bit of shooting, and violence so I wouldn't suggest it for Alex, but was also rare that it more focused on making decisions and dealing with c...

If it's your first offense, you might be able to ask for a continuance without finding, or nolo contendere, or no contes etct. Ask a lawyer about your state. There's a good chance if you have a clean record you can do this. It's similar to pleading guilty, except it doesn't go on your record as ...

100 bucks for a weak memory card?? :: Sony's not dumb, they KNOW that thing is gonna be hacked up faster than a pirate at a ninja convention...

@travislife42 Can't say I know much about airsoft, but don't certain high cost brands use metal vs plastic where possible for authenticity? Classic Army or something? As long as the bare lower is strong enough, and built to spec enough to accept an upper, and a lower parts kit.. then I dunno. ...

@mathew85 At first I thought he was an idiot, but then I started wondering: If the lower receiver is modeled accurately enough.. You could swap the airsoft upper out for an AR15 one from any manufacture, and not even need a permit to place the mail order. Probably need a lower parts kit for the...

As far as "All good things" is concerned I always just assumed that they altered the warp scale again to allow for a greater range of speeds between the "Warp 9" and impossible Warp 10. As ships got faster, and faster Captains would have to ramble off ever longer warp factors. "Ensign set course...

There should be a segment devoted just to "Will they reboot it as an FPS?"

Xcom : FPS!!

Syndicate: FPS!!

SimCity: FPS??

Civilization: FPS

King's Quest: The FPS enchantment??

The longest Journey: FPS!!

@PieGuy993 Back in 1978 George Lucas founded the Storm Trooper Academy for Marksmanship. Since then thousands if not millions of forgettable unnamed militia types have been trained in the fine art of not being able to hit any god damned thing they aim at.

You track down a copy, get their first -- only to find... It's for the platform you don't own. NNooooooo... damn you Khannnnnn!!

Ironically I was watching some clips of the old anime "Dominion Tank Police" and wondered who the voice actress was that played the Puma sisters. Alison Dowling. As it happens, she also does the voice for the female orc Mazaz in this scene. It's tough to spot, but I can hear her accent in th...

Simple and reliable is a potent mix in a fighting gun. Just out of curiosity, what pistols do you see working well in classes (besides Glock's of course)?

If you can't find a tripod for your webcam you might want to check out this lady's solution so she can use her old tripod..

I've never been unimpressed with a Ruger. The quality you get for the money you spend makes them a high value purchase in my book.

@IBriansit0 Now that's real love... But you'd get paper cuts!!

@Rhincewind13 lol well her second guess was going to be Skrillex.

Did Rear Admiral Dingbat just say "what's the good of hiding anyway?" !!?? I guess he slept through those history lessons about the submarine's influence on naval operations in the 20th century. There should be a Renegade option to kick him in the junk while advising him that he should've watch...

Lucky!!!

damn.. that's a nice collection. Nice and organized too.

I like blue, but not that wide weave pattern. Too much contrast with the black table surface.. it's almost like a digital camo effect. You could try to put something else under the blue to drop the contrast. (another light blue, or light green, light grey etc.) Lighting seems good, but more is a...

@katharis90 There is a playlist if you'd like a more in depth answer. Even if you familiar with the game, you might want to watch them since commentary is very enlightening and entertaining... or at least most of us think so.

The Quarian's and the Geth seem to be Mass Effect's nod to Battle Star Galactica. I wonder if Mass Effect 3 will feature toasters wearing red Dress's.

I get the sense this was designed with the stock in mind originally. The carbine model plus a Glock 18 with 33 round mags might be cool. But without the stock, I get the feeling that only Hollywood would be interested in this. Image them cramming a Desert Eagle into it...hah!

Well at least t...

great game. Played it many times on my saturn back in the day.. Till I went to a friends house and they had Sony's new "Playstation". Quality titles for the saturn were far and few, and even despite a few months lead, the PS1 still managed to have a better or equal library at release. After a ...

I think you mean Simon Says at 9:00 At least I think the game was called Simon Says..

@Phanto5692 @Phanto5692 experimentation for the most part. Though many character have specific requirements on armor, or weapon preferences. So the choices aren't as vast you might assume at first. As far as determining which weapons are better than others the game gives you a quick comparison w...

Hadn't heard of the Eotech till you mentioned it. That seems like it's more of a collectors limited run, rather than a full production run or at least I'd hope so. I don't mind the zombie targets though. Some states won't let you use or buy targets with people on them.. but somehow zombie target...

Nice. Now you just need the tights. **shudders** ahh.. Get that image out of my mind!!

Couldn't "thou shalt help everyone and everything" Also be the first rule of adventure games..? Well maybe it's only the 2nd rule, after "if it's not nailed down, pick it up". hmm RPG's are also guilty of that. Apart from the combat, XP & money game mechanics adventure games and RPGs share ma...

@WarthogDemon Mass Effect was also released on the Xbox360. You could probably find a used or refurbished system in the 100 USD range. Assuming you don't mind playing on your TV vs laptop.

@koolkdd Now that's an arrow you don't want to take to the knee. *Ba dum tssshhh*

I wonder if the colors and patterns are just for decoration, or if they had any meaning or special ceremony or customs associated with wearing of certain colors. Like how wedding dresses are white, or how it is custom to wear black or other dark colors at a funeral.. That sort of thing.

@xAXEcelx of course. Since 2006 Apple switched from power PC to Intel. Any Mac made since then will run windows and it's applications. It's far from cost effective to purchase a mac just for gaming, though as you can build a PC from parts for a fraction of the money. Then again since most game d...

Truth is there is no good answer to these types of situations because your already in about as poor a position as you can get. It could play out a million different ways. As a legal gun owner, you have to be aware that all you can do is respond. What's the best response? Nobody can answer that d...

I had no idea Iron Storm was worth anything. Now I feel bad. Years ago a friend loaned me his copy, and while digging through the family basement i found it in a box with bunch of other 90's stuff. I guess now I've got to ask him if he wants it back. :P

This was also released on PC which isn't surprising given that it is a doom clone. Interestingly you can grab the PC version off of abandonia for free though it lacks the music which adds a lot to the atmosphere.

The Saturn really was at it's best doing these 2D sprite based games. Not sure if you've ever played it before, but you might want to check out Astal for the Saturn. It was a side scrolling platformer with some really nice 2D sprite work. Probably the best looking 2D game on the system that I've...
