| Does anyone know if that dealzon coupon for the Psycho dlc that Blue linked to a couple of days ago is still valid? |

I'm not the slightest bit religious, but I have way more respect for people who are and leave others alone instead of the assholes who think criticizing them is somehow enlightening.
I stopped being surprised at just how much religious bigotry exists on the Internet long ago, and Bluesnews is definitely no exception, but I agree wholeheartedly with the quoted portion of Mad Max's post.
I'll be the first to bash a Christian who gets on his or her moral superiority high horse on things like sex, drinking, or gay marriage, but a guy who happens to proudly avail himself of his religious denomination while reviewing games is not an affront to anybody, and all this unwarranted scorn and mockery serves to make those who consider themselves enlightened or intellectually superior appear just the opposite. |

Remember kiddies, DRM is only good if it's Valve's. At least that seems to be the message around here.
Not sure if you've ever bothered reading any threads about this topic but I'll summarize:
1) DRM is bad.
2) Steam's non-DRM features are good.
3) Steam's good features outweigh the downsides of its DRM.
That's why people like Steam. It's not really rocket science. Standalone DRM is completely worthless, as it offers no benefits to the consumer. Steam offers plenty of benefits to the consumer so the consumer is far more tolerant of the DRM.
Don't bother. Rollinthunder is a troll. He throws in garbage like that whether or not it makes sense or relevent to the topic. His points are easily refutable but that doesn't stop him from regurgitating them over and over. Put him on ignore or just laugh at his stupidity, but just don't feed him. |

Dark Souls at $7.50 is tempting. I know the game will make me cry like a girl because I have trouble with only moderately difficult games, but the gamer in me still wants to give it the old college try. I am a little surprised that the Amazon listing shows it requires Steam AND GFWL, but I already learned to put up with the horrible GFWL when I played Dawn of War 2 and Dead Rising 2, so no biggie.

Steamworks 
Yup.
Same here. I'd be happy if every game ever made ever again used Steamworks myself. |

| The Rangers don't play defense as much as Lunquidst bales them out when they screw their D up, but yeah, the Rangers/Caps series was surprisingly low scoring. All in all I'd say that a few teams in the West are better than NY, but they're a scrappy lot and can pull off an upset for sure. |

I guess they figure there is very little overlap between hockey fans and basketball fans. Anyway, "Let's Go Rangers!"  |

That Nuclear Unicorn article had me going WTF more than once. Woman(man?) scams people out of their money, gets found out, tries to commit suicide and that fucker Quinnae Moongazer (WTF?) actually has the audacity to defend her while at the same time attacking a guy who actually knew her(him?) in real life for not being respectful enough towards her rights as a TG person while that guy is simply trying his best to save his friend's life? What gives? What is wrong with you people????
Whew - glad to see that I am not the only one absolutely floored by this douchebag's gall not only to defend someone who knowingly tried to steal people's money fraudelently but to attack the guy who came clean about it. What a fucking asshole of the highest order.
As far as the lady, man... PERSON named Chloe, I hope he/ she is okay and ends up finding happiness, but what he/ she tried to do is absolutely indefensible. |

I hate having another platform on top of Steam, but as long as a game is good and it is on Steam it's not a deal-breaker for me, so I'll buy it regardless of it requiring U-play (or even the execrable GFWL) as well. I haven't gotten Far Cry 3 yet, but that's just because I've been busy with other games, so by the time I am ready to play it might be on sale.
All in all, Ubisoft has been slowly moving in the right direction after a series of absolutely disastrous decisions with their DRM schemes and delayed releases, so they deserve to be seeing some positive cash flow I think. The release of Watch Dogs will be a big test to see how far they've come or if they are going to start regressing again. RIght now I am cautiously hopeful.
EDIT: Oh and I am one of netnerd's supposed "stupid" people (fuck you very much btw) who will buy a Steam version of a game that is on GOG also because I prefer Steam's patching and archiving system much more than GOG's, plus I use the integrated features of the Steam platform so there is the convenience factor of the "one-stop-shopping nature of Steam. But yeah, because my tastes run different I am "stupid". Fucking idiot.

Haha speaking of cartoons, I'd be lying if I said I didn't laugh out loud at some of the Spongebob Squarepants episodes. Some of those are just clever as hell, and have lots of inside jokes only someone who was older could really appreciate. Also, I will say I think that Mojo Jojo from the Powerpuff Girls was the funniest cartoon villain ever - A turban-wearing monkey in a cape and go-go boots is just so awesome, I named my cat after him!  |

The very purpose of a forum like this is to discuss games. How can you discuss games without discussing perceived problems? How can you discuss anything if criticisms of that very thing you are discussing are off the table? This attitude makes no logical sense.
Exactly. I can be 100% behind the 4A dev team for makming what looks to be an outstanding game - clearly the team has some serious skill and pasion - and still criticize their short-sightedness in making design choices that lock them into an overly claustrophobic field of vision. One that is almost universally considered unacceptable in the PC space. |

| None of that makes me feel old. What makes me feel old is my arthritic shoulder, my painful back, and the fact that I can't get out of bed without groaning. |

| EA article written by an EA fanboy who closes a blind eye to some of the worst offenses committed against gaming. Disregarded. Though I admit they should go great together, Star Wars and EA. The Star Wars IP has been completely devalued by terrible movies, terrible decisions, and the asstastic SWTOR and is now worthless, and EA is steadfastly anti-consumer and generally just sucks complete ass. A match made in hell. They deserve each other. |
