I wouldn't be surprised if females were the majority already. I know more females who are into games (given it's nieces, parents and elderly women) than males by this point. It's mostly casual and puzzle games but those counts as games.

I'm kind of happy that people doesn't feel that a female dismembered torso is digusting around here. That means all people in this community think of the genders equally. In most instances in this world, though, gender is not equal... let me put it straight in your face, take it.

No, I'm not saying this because of political correctness... most women are not funny.

I just wondered what "Yorn" meant. I Googled it and now know who Pete Yorn is. Ohhh, it's "Yourn", well fuck you google. What if I could ask a friendly soul about this instead? No? I should Google it instead? I just thought I did.

I don't know, I have no ideas.

@Christoffer: I've been spending a lot more time playing old stuff from GOG this year instead of finding some kind of new genre I don't know about. Maybe it is time to just take a break overall. I took a pretty long break from games once between the N64 and the PS2 and had a lot of fun later going back and playing all of the PSX and Dreamcast games I missed.

I still haven't played Far Cry 3 or Sleeping Dogs. I think I'll at least enjoy those two a lot. I can't think of a lot of stuff announced for the coming year that I'd feel really bad about missing though.

Then it seems to me you don't really want to leave the game media completely (that and your added The Walking Dead comment). You're just like me "what else would I do if not play games, watch TV? Hell no".

As I see it, you have two options. Get away from games for a while and pursue other hobbies for 1-3 years. Come back when HL3 is out and enjoy it then. The other option is to try out different games than you are used to play. You said you liked X-COM, how about other strategy games? I wont blame you if you've grown away from the standard high concept AAA title. There's a whole swamp of deep strategy games on the PC to sink youself into. As I get older i tend to lean towards those game a bit more (though I still like my fair share of high concept).

I don't mind if they wait to release HL2 until it's perfect. The episodes convinced me that even Valve can do mistakes, so I hope they doesn't rush the ending out just to get it out.

I've concluded that Brad is a master of snagging games, for review, that he knows he will probably like. Thus, a lot of his reviews have higher scores than average. It's the thesis I'm working on right now.

And yes, I agree, the comment sections on this site are generally hideous. Maybe there's some few nuggets in there somewhere. But if I have to wade through a 600 post pissing contest by loud mouthed children to see them, I'd rather just stay away.

I hope it's more worthwhile than Planeside 2 which had problems giving me motivations to do anything (I haven't read anything about Dust, so I wouldn't know)

I will have to admit I liked eve for quite a while. Sadly i didn't find anyone at my level to play with so I ditched it :/ But I knows hows to plays em shooters.

HEATHEN

But he looked so young and innocent. The exact character he was supposed to be, right?. Given I've only watched two seasons yet (yes I'm new to TNG).
